It is that time of year again when we swear we are going to change. Our son Zach is here for 6 months because he is trying to get prepared to join the Army. He has lost 13 pounds in one month.
Ed is getting ready for a body building competition.
I am proud of them both. Their discipline and drive is commendable.
Ed and Zach 2 days after Zach arrived from the states.
Zach and Ed one month later. (You can really see all Zach's hard work!)
Now for me....
There are certainly many things I could work on... weight... projects... diligence with house keeping...pfft.
I still intend to work on all the above and a spattering of other improvable physical and character flaws, but I think I will just try to "do" stuff every day. I just don't feel like making a loud bold declaration of what I will be changing in the next 12 months. I find that I usually do better with positive improvements when I mutter quietly to myself in private (sometimes in the fetal position lol).
So I am going to just plug on like always. Somedays you may look at me and think.. hmm she may have lost weight... and you may be right.... or you may look at me and say hmm Deb may have put on a few more pounds.. and you may be right........ but at least I won't have to add guilt and abject failure in resolution setting to my long list of faults :)
Good luck to all the brave soldiers on the front line of resolution setting! I wish you the best!
