Do you go to bed every night full of plans and new leafs and good intentions? Me too.
It’s completely exhausting. I finish every day planning how tomorrow (always ‘tomorrow’) I’m going to crack this whole ‘being a person’ thing. I’m going to organise the linen cupboard and throw out any knickers that predate my son (and accept that they don’t actually fit anymore). I will replace my underwear collection with the sort of underwear befitting of a real grown up woman. I’m guessing that means all white, black and flesh-coloured stuff? Sorry tropical fruit pattern knickers you just don’t belong here anymore.
10 things I say I’ll do at bedtime (NONE of which have EVER happened)
1. I’m going to get up early tomorrow.
2. I’m going to go for a jog before work.
3. I’m going to cut out refined sugar and stop eating bread and potatoes.
4. I’m going to start being more mindful and go to bikram twice a week.
5. I’m going to stop re-watching old episodes of Sex and the City and watch more challenging stuff, stuff with subtitles.
6. I’m going to stop watching television altogether and read more.
7. I’m going to be a better parent, I’m going to do more sensory play activities and stop letting him have crisps.
8. I’m going to make those home-made vegetable crisps that I’m always seeing, they’re better for you, right? I’m definitely doing a juice cleanse next week.
9. I’m going to go to bed earlier. I’m also going to print out all the photos in the cloud and put them into albums. And I’m going to take up crochet.
10. I’m going to stop making ridiculous resolutions and concentrate on more important things…. I’m going to have a sausage sandwich for breakfast (this one at least is achievable).
