From daily scribbles to daily “dribbles”?(Day 95)

Nearly 100 days with these daily scribbles.  I’m impressed with myself!

Tonight I planned things wrong because I came home from work and did a few jobs that I didn’t necessarily need to do, but didn’t do the two I did need to do (this and uploading a specific piece to the website that some people had asked about on Facebook).

So now it’s 10 pm and I still have to do both things when it’s late and all I want to do is get ready for bed and read my book.    Doh!

I’m a plonker.

In other news, I haven’t done any exercize in a couple weeks and it feels as though I’ve been eating a lot of bread and chocolate and cheese lately (probably because I have those three ingredients for breakfast, lunch and dinner most days) and I’m feeling annoyed and frustrated with myself.

I always wish I were eating healthier and exercising more and yet most of the time I eat too much chocolate and if I exercize I do loads one week and then none the next two weeks.

Consistency dammit, where’s the consistency?!!

It’s unusual that I’m doing so little exercize at the moment, I’m normally good at getting in at least a couple hill-walks or some home exercizes or a yoga practice.  But these days, I’m barely doing anything and I’d like to change that.

Everyone feels better when they’re more physically active, the body has more energy and feels lighter and easier, the mind is more alert and tune in and of course, those happy chemicals, endorphins, are having a party in your bloodstream (which basically means you’re happy most of the time).

Why wouldn’t you exercize for all that?!

Oh yeah, cause I’m a lazy bum who prefers to scoff Galaxy chocolate while reading a good book.  And when I’m done with that, I can’t try running around with a tummy full of chocolate, that’s just not a good idea.

That’s probably a good project to set up for myself, a daily exercize routine, that could be like my scribbles (daily dribbles?!).  Everyday something (a few sun salutations or some sit ups), some days more if I’ve time and energy, but everyday, something.

I think that’s a really good idea.  Because sooner or later my fast metabolism is going to slow down and at the rate I’m eating compared to moving, I could very quickly go from a lean mean chocolate-eating machine to a human elephant.

And then I’d just squish Alex any time we tried to cuddle.  So I think it might be time to start exercizing again.

Ciao darlings!
