Resolutions Update

I thought I would do a quick post to let you know how I am doing on my resolutions three days in to the New Year. I am doing a pretty rock star job, if I do say so myself.

Resolution 1: Be a nicer person. Well, on New Year's Day I came down with the stomach flu (Thank you, Will) and was basically puking or comatose until this morning so... CHECK! Its hard to be mean when in a coma.

Resolution 2: Lose weight. CHECK! I think I puked up everything I've eaten since 1998, so I am pretty sure I got that one covered. Not to mention, there are Dunkin Donuts in my house right now and I had two halves (equals one donut, I know, but to be accurate I ate half of one kind and half of another). Normally I would have four to six halves (PIG!!!!). But no... I am well on my way to size 4 jeans. Or... 14. Whatever.

Resolution 3: Be a better mother. Well, I am iffy on this one. I feel like I did it because I pretty much checked out for a day and therefore couldn't have screwed up too badly. But, on the other hand I feel like a good mother has to actually be around her children. So, I will call it a tie.

So, thanks to Mr. Flu Bug, 2009 is off to a pretty good start, resolutionarily speaking!

Every time I puke my mother says the same thing:

"At least at the end of all this you'll be thinner".

to which I always respond:

NOTHING. What can you say to that?

Marinka - Best of luck!!!

Bern - I see it as the silver lining to my puke cloud.

Way to be positive! You should have made that your resolution and you'd be right on the money!! Actually, #3 will be bang on if you haven't passed the flu on to the kids. That would make you a good mommy.

Crazy Mo - Will gave it to me, so what does that say about him being a good child! Maybe we need to work on his resolutions!
