lose 6 kilos (read all 4 entries…)
2 years later

It’s all slowly crept back on :-P Luckily not to the stage I was at right back in the beginning, just the 6kgs I was trying to lose.

Sooooo, looks like this is still a current goal.

Did a workout yesterday, and have been walking a lot more lately. Next step is to overhaul the diet again, ease back into cutting out the rubbish and adding in the good stuff.

Curtains for the dining room

Super easy to sew up as I used an Ikea curtain wire and clips+hooks set, so the actual curtains only had to be hemmed rectangles. The photos don’t do them justice.



Get rid of 1000 things (read all 13 entries…)
Sideways step

Doesn’t count towards the total, but spent time today packing up lots of “baby” stuff ready for storage. Had already gone through all the clothing, but tackled the kitchenware stuff today – sippy cups, bottles, baby bowls, baby cutlery, etc.

A little sad to mark the end of his babyhood, but heaps of room in the kitchen drawers again :)

I’ve given it a 12 month stay in storage, after that if we haven’t had another bub it will be time to say goodbye to it all.
