January - the love hate relationship

1/4/2013

0 Comments

 
January has quickly become the month I both love and hate...  
I hate it because its cold, dark, raining and winter.. Its when all the diet product and gym memberships go on sale and I am reminded that I am a big girl every where I look it all about dieting and exercising (like I don't already know that).  Its also the time of year where everyone in the office starts to bring in the chocolates, cookies and goodies they received over Christmas but don't want to eat themselves and bring it in to "share" with the office.  There goes my healthy eating plan :)
I love Jan as its a time to start fresh and plan for the future endeavors to be taken in the year, chance to catch up with friends whose calendars are now clear after the silly season and of course my birthday (which is in a couple of weeks). 
I seem to find this more and more each year I start to feel worse in Jan.  I had a moment this morning when I realized that its going to be cold on my birthday (I was born in Australia so my birthday was usually always warm and wonderful) and I really don't have a lot of money to spend on my birthday. 
But this year I am taking Jan with a silver lining.. Yes I don't have a lot of money for my birthday but I am saving for travelling (which is always a lot of fun).  I have spent the past year working hard to maintain the goals I have had and although some worked better then others I go into this year with optimism.
Jan may be dark, wet and miserable but I am going to make the best of it.  Life is to short to be sad
