'09 Afresh

Things are starting to look up. Have decided that while 2009 really didn't start well, it just means all the bad has been gotten out of the way at once and 2009 can still be GREAT! Kids are all mostly better and our little Sub is home and doing well (5 different medications though). Sadly his year isn't fab yet as he is (much to his desperate frustration) separated still from his beloved Poppy, who really mistimed things and is on heat.
We are having some truly fabulous days at the moment and are really getting great use out of the pool. It's usually a battle to get the kids out and when they are out, they're constantly asking when they can go back in. The nice thing about having a pool (for a family of three kids) is we can go swimming whenever without having to pack half the house in the car for an outing!
Spent a good part of yesterday at Mapua though visiting camping friends from the Coast. Was a lovely little outing. Stupendously HOT though. Kids had a ball playing in the sand and mud and paddling in the sea.
I have taken on a pamphlet run to motivate me out walking and i am loving it. I was always finding excuses not to get out walking, but now i HAVE to and it's brilliant. I look forward to each walk. Mum often comes too and it's a nice moment away from the kids. I am starting to notice a change in myself for it too. I am getting a little fitter (there's a big hill involved) and am finding myself a lot more motivated and positive minded. IT'S FAB!
So here's to the rest of 2009, which is going to be a great year for ME!
