Mum on a Mission

This new mum is on a mission…to lose weight, to be the best mum I can, to be creative and to be the best version of "ME" I can.

Eek! It’s been a while since I’ve posted…oops! So what have I been up to in the meantime?

Mission: Weight Loss – Latest weigh in (Monday) I was at 86.5kg so unfortunately didn’t achieve my first goal :( I know perfectly well why though. I didn’t exercise, I didn’t drink enough water ( so I’m not going very well with that goal either) and I wasn’t tracking what I ate therefore wasn’t holding myself accountable. We had a bad night sleep-wise with DS on Friday night and DH, thinking he was doing something nice (which he was) bought me some cookies & cream ice-cream. It was very nice of him to try and make me feel better when I was feeling a bit “over it” but ice-cream isn’t a good thing to have in the house when I’m feeling drained and a little bit down. Willpower to resist is just something I need to work on I’m afraid.

Mission: Vege Garden – I have started a kind of garden diary in a hardcover book that I have cut & pasted tips and info from old Your Home & Garden magazines that I was clearing out so that I have all the info in one place. Here are photos of some of the pages…

Garden Diary - General info

Garden Diary - Growing from seed

Garden Diary - Herbs

I have also started a page for sustainable gardening, mulching & composting and the first “what to do in” page for Summer/January. The next step is to actually get of my bum and actually weed the garden so I can plant some goodies!

Mission: Organised Home – Yeah this is going to be a loooong term mission I’m guessing. Things I’ve done towards this so far are buy a new bigger box for the Christmas decorations and pack up DS’s clothes he has grown out of. You’ve gotta love plastic storage bins :)

Anyway must fly the little one (who started crawling as of Monday!) has awoken from his nap.

Ciao for now x

Hi, I’m Cheryl and this blog is all about my missions in life.

Number 1 is to be the best mum I can to my little boy who was born in May 2010. My next priority is to lose weight which is what prompted me to start this blog in the first place. It’s  going to be a place for me to share with you on this journey. I love to be creative so will also be sharing my flashes of creativity in all things artsy and craftsy.

I’m not perfect so I will endeavour to be as honest as possible in my posts especially when it comes to any failures I will most likely have in my weight loss mission and in my new job as a Mum. The most important thing I need to remember is when I fall off the wagon that I get right back on again.
