Update on life in NZ

Ok, Well I just received a message from anonymous saying they loved my post.  I had stopped writing to this blog simply cos I got busy and I also gained my weight back.

Well anyone who has weight, will understand that one!

So in the last couple of years I have

• completed a Post Grad Certificate in Human Resource management
• Married the man of my dreams
• Fallen off my mtn bike and sported a great neck brace for ages and stuffed my shoulder
• Got a new job with better moolah and much more fun
• Had my favourite (and only daughter) graduate her studies and move to Australia with her lovely boyfriend
• And said goodbye to my youngest son who is flatting and apparently Im good for free food and whatever he can pilfer

I feel I need something else.....

Welcome to 2010

Isnt it amazing how a new year makes you take stock? 

This summer, the weather just never kicked off except to blow and rain.  Im sure it will get better, but rather than sulk, I used the time off to throw out as much clutter as I could. 

The theme is downsize. 

Yea yea, you say...you do this all the time....losing weight yadda yadda.  Im talking about downsizing my life, not just my body.

I am in love with plastic boxes.  I also think the tip must be so full of household shite that no one wants.  Its just incredible!  I challenge anyone to be hard and throw out items that have sentimental value.  Take a photo..it takes less room!

I have a plan.  Downsize my house, downsize my boys, downsize my body.

The boys are now nearly 19, and 20 respectively.  Its time they left home.  So I told them the first one to leave home gets a fridge, and the one easy chair.

By the end of this year, I want to be much smaller, my home gym more worn out, and my family all independent and happy to "visit"

Oh and a tiny secret!  We are moving forward on our plan to move to Brisbane!
