How I did it
How to visit Scotland
It took me
14 days
It made me

How I did it: it was our first trip overseas together, and both of us are enamoured with a) scotch, b) history, and c) gorgeous countrysides. we went for two weeks: flew from Toronto to Glasgow, then took a bus to Edinburgh. Then we rented a small car and drove around Scotland for a week and a bit. Then we returned the car to Glasgow and flew back out! Read how I did it…

play soccer with the boys this summer
couch to 5k? 7 months ago

so there is this running program online called “couch to 5k” that everyone is gaga over. i might try it! this would put me WAY closer to achieving my playing-soccer goal.

obstacles:
- fear
- laziness
- bad feet
- really bad feet

i’ve figured out what is wrong with my feet, and now i have to go get orthotics. i don’t know why i keep putting this off. MUST STOP PUTTING IT OFF.

so mini-goal: get orthotics for feet so i can walk/run a lot.

wear a size that is in most stores (read all 6 entries…)
after TWO MONTHS 7 months ago

so after doing a quick weight check and getting VERY disgruntled, i did a very bad thing: i took a week off. i still ate really healthy things, just much more of them. i also drank a bunch of really good wine, slept instead of exercised, and ate several club sandwiches at the local diner with glee.

and now i am back on the train. refreshed, still a bit frustrated, but regretting nothing.

i think the three hardest things about all of this are as follows:
- reducing wine consumption
- increasing exercise
- not getting discouraged when the scales don’t change – WEEK AFTER WEEK

so okay. let’s just get a move on, already!
