New Idea

I have toying with this idea for a few months now and I have decided to bite the bullet and begin.
Starting over the next few days, I will photograph a new image each day and everyone can just put one to three words about the following:
- how they feel (sad, exciting)
- what they think of the photo (amazing, crap, impossible)
- funny explanations (WTF, OMG etc (please put what they mean))

For the next 12 months I will put a new photo up each day and you can put your quick comment.

At the end of the 12 months, I am hoping to put the photos (and your comments) into a book that may be published. If you are interested please join in.

Fitness time

Well, I have been going to the gym for a year now and have not lost any weight. I have decided to bite the bullet and really put the hard yards into the exercise. I now do two personal training sessions and boot camp as well as the normal, cycle, pump and running. Hopefully this will help with the weight loss.

Today was my second session at boot camp and I love it. It was hard but good. Lots of running and boxing tonight. I also had a pt session this morning as well as doing cycle. I have a pt session tomorrow morning (working the legs) so I expect to be very sore this weekend.

I went and watered the garden OMG the weeds and grass are as high as me (I know that's not too hard) but everything is so overgrown. I will have to mow tomorrow when I get home tomorrow after work. I will also have to pick alot of my spinach as there is so much of it and give it away at way tomorrow.

Tomorrow is my last day in my section. I am sad but excited. The people have been great however I really need a change.

Have a great night.

I'm back and forgot I had this blog

Hi,
I am sure that no one will read this blog but who cares. I did forget that I had this blog and only re-discovered due to the beautiful Rhonda at Down-to-Earth blog. Thanks Rhonda. If you really want to read a great blog go to Rhonda's it is inspirational.
A lot has happened since I have blogged but this blog will be mainly about my drive to become more 'organic', greener and to get my family to be more self sufficient.
So far I have planted a vegie patch. Liam (DS2) and I spent last week-end planting all different vegetables for the upcoming Spring and Summer. I can't wait.
I am also planning to make a lot of Christmas presents this year as I think we spend too much money on gifts that don't mean very much. So far I have started on nothing but plan to make my Christmas cards very soon and start sewing (yeah, I know I can sew but hey I can try). I will blog all my funny experiences (especially when I fail).
I also working hard on losing weight. I am going to the gym four to five times a week and trying hard to be careful what I eat.
So if you want to read about the trials and tribulations of my life please feel free.
Have a great day.
