    This is me, after this morning's workout. I took a This is me, after this morning's workout.
I took advantage of a free trial of an exercise app 12 weeks ago, and have stuck with it - in fact, I've actually increased my exercise as time has gone on. 
I have dropped some weight but I couldn't tell you how much. Although I weigh myself regularly, I purposefully don't do the maths as to whether the number has gone up or down.
This time, exercising is about mental health. It's about the fact I will be 40 in a few short months, and don't want to feel "old" when getting up off the floor or lifting heavy things. It's about being strong and healthy.
Instead of focusing on measurements and numbers, I am focusing on how I feel - and I feel stronger and more energetic. And despite  lockdown 3 and homeschool being rather stressful, I do feel fairly positive. My mental health is more steady than it has been for a while. 
I think what has also helped is that on the app I am using, there is zero mention of things like weight, weight loss or fat. The instructors talk about feeling good, challenging yourself, telling yourself that you can do hard things. Actually the instructor this morning was talking about self care and saying no to the things that don't serve you. 
Another thing that has made a difference is looking at ways to make this a regular habit. Finding a way to ensure I get my exercise done, even when I got up late and have to do homeschool and get some work done and, and, and. 
I'm finding that as much as moving my body, it is this act of prioritising my well-being and keeping a promise to myself each day that is making me feel good.
    And so we begin a new year. I always find it stra And so we begin a new year. 
I always find it strange that the tradition seems to be that we all get drunk on new year's eve and make resolutions to eat more healthily or not drink or whatever - but there's also a tradition of a big family meal on new year's day, and the house is usually still full of Christmas treats and booze. So we end up starting the year feeling hungover, exhausted and likely to fail at our good intentions on day one! 

I have not made a resolution this year but I am going to try and be more intentional about sharing positive things on here. 
Today's positive thing is that I managed to drag S out for a walk in the cold, and she had a brilliant time. We also stopped by my sister's house to collect something, which is always a good way to make S happy.

My mental health is not great at the moment - possibly due to the fact I've been eating rubbish and barely moving my body. Much as I love to have these two weeks off at Christmas, next week will be a welcome return to our routine.
    Happy new year from me and my favourite person! I Happy new year from me and my favourite person! 
It's been a long 12 months, and we definitely would not have made it through without a lot of support from friends and family.
S has never stayed up to see in the new year before - and I rarely bother either. But this year I feel like it would be a symbolic gesture to stay awake to welcome the new year.
So we're cuddled up with Ted and a blanket (and a sleep mask) watching Soul on Disney+. And I might even make some popcorn.
Here's to an excellent 2021 filled with love and adventures. πŸ₯‚πŸŽ‰
    This time last year everyone was posting their #ye This time last year everyone was posting their #yearinbooks and I couldn't even remember what I'd read the previous month. 
So I downloaded the @goodreads app and started keeping track.
This year I've read way more than I expected (thanks, lockdown) - and I've broadened my horizons considerably. I also went through a bit of a Harlan Coven phase, it would seem. I've read a lot more fiction than I normally would, and my nonfiction reading has expanded as well as going down quite specific rabbitholes.
This is a selection of the books I've read this year... Funnily enough the longest book was Mrs Pepperpot, which I read to S. How many of these have you read?
Also: if you've read something amazing this year do feel free to recommend it to me for my 2021 reading list.
    Say hello to my little friend... This is my belly. Say hello to my little friend...
This is my belly. It's been a part of my life ever since I can remember. Sometimes bigger; sometimes smaller; never absent.

It has stretch marks and moles and a scar from a hernia operation.
Fun fact: since the hernia operation there's actually more fat on one side than the other. So it's wonky too.
A baby grew in there.
Because of the hernia and other things, it is unlikely ever to be flat and toned.

It doesn't fit neatly into clothes. It gets bloated when I eat too much of certain foods. It gets in the way when I try to do child's pose in yoga.

I used to hate it. That didn't make it leave though; if anything my self loathing just made me eat more, causing it to grow.
I'm working on loving it - because it's a part of me and is not going anywhere. 
Either way, love it or hate it, it's a part of my body and I am sick of being at war with it.

Does having a bit of a podgy tummy make me less of a person? Am I somehow less worthy, less loveable? Do I deserve to feel bad because there's more adipose tissue on thay part of my body? Should I feel ashamed?

Does seeing this change your opinion of me? 
Only if it does, I think that probably says more about you than about me.
    Merry Christmas everyone πŸŽ…πŸŽ„β›„πŸ¦ŒπŸŽ I hop Merry Christmas everyone
πŸŽ…πŸŽ„β›„πŸ¦ŒπŸŽ
I hope πŸŽ… brought you everything you hoped for.
If your Christmas is looking a bit different this year, I hope you still find reasons to smile.
Also: a round of applause please for S, who woke up at 6:30 and then allowed me to sleep until 7:30!πŸ₯°
