The Dreaded New Year

Ugh. So here we are again, another New Years Eve. I enjoy yet hate New Years because it reminds me of half the things I said I'd do last year, but clearly didn't do yet. The FH is at work till 6, and I think we're just going to have a quiet evening in, because that's how we are.

We went on a mega clean-a-thon the last few days and the place is actually looking pretty good. We sorted through boxes, through out about 8 bags of garbage, gave away 5 boxes and a bag to Sally Ann and just re-organized our stuff. We actually have some space left over, it's nuts!

We're going to try a meal plan for the new year as well, so we spent yesterday pouring over recipe books and finding tasty things. I picked up The Biggest Loser Jump start, so we're taking a lot out of there. We made this absolutely tasty Ham/Cheese/Egg muffin thing this morning, so I felt like I was eating fast food, but it was way better! We've had the last few days off together, so we made a conscious effort not to eat out, and to make something healthy. Yesterday we made this low cal chocolate monkey oatmeal, which was awesome! You'd think it would be bad for you, but made right..nope!

I am excited, yet scared for the new year. I'm getting married in 7 months. I need to plan more stuff, and get it in place, I'm just feeling so overwhelmed by it all. We went to Moores and got the tuxes picked out, and I'm going to go to Safeway and book the flowers soon. I just don't even know what else I need. This sense of panic plus the fact that I'm back to school on Tuesday, have another practicum in March, need to get un-fat..it's going to be tough. I always find I get really frustrated and overwhelmed then just shut down and binge on everything, like food, sleep, booze, you name it. I really need to find a better method.

Goal today: Get lazy butt on the Wii Fit.
