Full time school for all the kidlets and I worked everyday. After school clubs include beavers, cubs, swimming, tennis, football and youth club. Holy batman it's tiring writing it down, let alone ferrying everyone everywhere. And occupying those kidlets not attending said club, but waiting 'patiently' with Mummy. Still, I (we) chose to support the activities and I think giving them opportunities to find strengths and enjoyment away from home is important. Even when I really. Really. Don't. Want. To.</div><div><br></div><div>Paul was away this weekend, completing his Personal Trainer training and will receive his results in the next few weeks.</div><div>Whilst he was away, we spent Saturday with Rae Rae and enjoyed some sun in the garden.</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgd3RcvuWL58bsPy0gRt-addv_HsCUcxXH3hAvpm9IORB-sPZBE8Ml6EaYrCoB82AsRs3y0YO_ANAbDTNsBLg8TS7YuqeU3BSmxZxLlLYAsuFsnbaNsze2nKuQKqqkmksHzIc29DesSK9Pu/s640/blogger-image--1783309283.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgd3RcvuWL58bsPy0gRt-addv_HsCUcxXH3hAvpm9IORB-sPZBE8Ml6EaYrCoB82AsRs3y0YO_ANAbDTNsBLg8TS7YuqeU3BSmxZxLlLYAsuFsnbaNsze2nKuQKqqkmksHzIc29DesSK9Pu/s640/blogger-image--1783309283.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyGG0g-UKLmKcs8SI2EpbcmcDdrlTJGknC1eCJFtXRljBfkJNIpesXnoakY2Xyc9n_V8Fpe_mT43LiSgKUpvp6Go2yQOal-yv67Qxtr0U2DiGKnHReH-B5U8THW24Gqu4aTbhSUvSNni-C/s640/blogger-image--575970736.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyGG0g-UKLmKcs8SI2EpbcmcDdrlTJGknC1eCJFtXRljBfkJNIpesXnoakY2Xyc9n_V8Fpe_mT43LiSgKUpvp6Go2yQOal-yv67Qxtr0U2DiGKnHReH-B5U8THW24Gqu4aTbhSUvSNni-C/s640/blogger-image--575970736.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Rae Raes house means being spoilt and Saturday was no exception, they made salt dough and used biscuit cutters to great effect.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">I am 2 weeks into my health make over, and I lost 3lbs this week. 12lbs in total. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Paul is measuring me for my records.

I've been at home with one or more kiddiewinks for 8 years and to say it's daunting is a little bit of an understatement.<div><br></div><div>I work part time at my local Marks and Spencer (they made me permanent after my temp job last Christmas. I love them. Alot. Too much. Ahem.) in the cafe. They work to a two week rota 'week 1' and 'week 2'. It basically allows them to have greater flexability with hours. I do 16 hours a week, split differently on week 1 and week 2. Every other fortnight is the same. Does that make sense? I work a weekend on, then a weekend off. If I work a weekend, I dont work Friday or Monday either side.. If I have the weekend off, I do work the Friday and Monday either side.. Sounds complex, but once you get your head around it, it works. </div><div><br></div><div>So I work 16 hours a week, in 4 hour shifts. My week day shifts are 10am-2pm. School hours. Perfecto. Monday to Friday I work 3 days. So I am now approaching a period of time where I have two days to myself everyweek.. I plan to take on overtime once the Christmas hours are released.. Until then, I have set myself a little schedule. Plan. Goal. Just to get me through September until life becomes the new version of 'normal' that it will be now that the children are all at school.</div><div><br></div><div>Work 3 days.</div><div>Gym with my personal trainer 2 days. Do an additional session on my own where time allows.</div><div>Cycle to work 1-2 times a week.</div><div>Stick with Weight Watchers. Weigh in every other week officially, weigh in privately when I can't get there.</div><div>Get healthy.</div><div>Be mindful</div><div>LOSE WEIGHT. Full stop.</div><div><br></div><div>I was gifted a spoon today. A spoon. It made me cry. It's just a spoon. But it's not. It is the gift of mindful eating, of love and of care. Of myself. I adore it.</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1bPtf8PmCQ52lxX8Wn9Pl0s69ZV9Epu0duAKma5o2Z4mUipfWR-RQuWCVJZS_lPpHPXmAlKxoEO9b5xPVOLC0l0BtTVDghM1VFxoXlVKulZv7SVPm-p_aemnUsa-SC5CgREoAtr4RPZ_u/s640/blogger-image-1031223682.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1bPtf8PmCQ52lxX8Wn9Pl0s69ZV9Epu0duAKma5o2Z4mUipfWR-RQuWCVJZS_lPpHPXmAlKxoEO9b5xPVOLC0l0BtTVDghM1VFxoXlVKulZv7SVPm-p_aemnUsa-SC5CgREoAtr4RPZ_u/s640/blogger-image-1031223682.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Eat less.

This is something I have really struggled with this year. I weaned myself off my original pills, because I thought that's what I should do and I crashed. I am now taking different medication, prescribed for anxiety with the bonus of mood lifting a happy side effect, after trail and error I have finally found a good dose and am feeling in control again. Settled.<div>In the midst of being crazy, I have gained a lot of weight. A LOT. I am bigger than I was three years ago when this little blog started. I have realised that you can't do it all, I can only work on one thing at a time. So now I'm feeling settled in my head, I have a plan for getting my physical well being in order, starting on Tuesday 01 September..

So here I am.</div><div><br></div><div>Writing to fill gaps is pretty overwhelming because I feel the need to fill them with glitter and rainbows, but I'm not going to do that peeps.

He's a teeny tiny Hermanns baby, currently weighing 50g and his shell measures 6.5 cm. I say He, but he could be a She.. It's too early to tell gender.. He has a little growing to do first.<div>With the right conditions, Mac could easily outlive us all, so it wasn't a light decision! </div><div><br></div><div>Why did we call him Mac, I hear you ask! Well! Do you have family 'in' jokes, the kind that make perfect sense to those you live with, the kind that are hilarious in the right company.. But fall flat to anyone not in on the joke..? This is one of those moments.. </div><div>We watched a film a long time ago, where the lead guy, an alien funnily enough, was called Steve. Now anything that requires a name, even things that don't need a name, are Steve. Right..?!

The smallest, but most significant in blog-land is that I am going to attempt a selfie a day this year, 'selfie365'. My friend VF suggested it and given that I intend to make a lot of changes this year, it seems like an appropriate tool for measuring such changes. Don't worry, I'm not going to post a pic everyday, I'll save them up and post collections.</div><div><br></div><div>Personally, or physically I guess, the biggest change is that I have actively decided not to work going into 2015.. Paul has gifted me a personal trainer, called Nick. I have gained a lot of weight. A LOT. Nick is going to inspire me in the gym, keep my workouts fresh and inspire my food choices. At home I am going to become 'Chief Economique' and work on keeping house, looking after Paul and the children. And mysef. I stopped working on myself quite some time ago and its time to remedy that.</div><div><br></div><div>It all sounds pretty idyllic really, doesn't it. Truth is, I'm terrified. I'm on a lot of medication right now and I want to start coming off it, so I've got my work cut out for me. I know its time, because this time last year I was m i s e r a b l e. This year I feel hopeful. Thats a good place to start, right?</div><div><br></div><div>I'll leave you with a few pics of our Christmas. The few blurry ones I have, were taken by the children, so excuse them, but they are good for setting the scene!</div><div>Happy 2015 x x</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW3VzZoNzA7xPNViGMz1XrCq3IDzeLnbCFANu2VrwwBfWRRZE0bdfY-gV_T467sEL4EIEmn7iVDRs67qTKvLJDPLUDbo1KQzsUGJo-HMb84ecubOiHmH1R-N58g5VKrZlIrETrvzIEkozy/s640/blogger-image--1116464296.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

After nearly three months I had had enough time to figure out that being the only girl isn't what I'm looking for in a job. They have been great and I have learnt so much. During my final shift I was cheeky enough to ask for a last favour and they gave me great discount on a mountain bike I have been coveting. It's actually a hard tail (front suspension, no back suspension, hence it having a 'hard tail') and a 29er to boot (29 inch wheels, aka massive). </div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjs0ZGjw7aYhL1ayFQ1k9T4GIfbRRz9x-Uhfb7qVzwMhRKPdQq02LM9GVtDSfAd35VU_uSfdOCRr4UsrJD7yFOLykUpqeEjGarXzo8d3y9ISfXOD4cn3XmeehU-tCO4qp7ceg4Pzh3QE9ab/s640/blogger-image--582880201.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjs0ZGjw7aYhL1ayFQ1k9T4GIfbRRz9x-Uhfb7qVzwMhRKPdQq02LM9GVtDSfAd35VU_uSfdOCRr4UsrJD7yFOLykUpqeEjGarXzo8d3y9ISfXOD4cn3XmeehU-tCO4qp7ceg4Pzh3QE9ab/s640/blogger-image--582880201.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">I was feeling massively inspired anyway, the guys at Cycleworld are mountain bikers, rather than road bikers and so I have watched a lot of amazing footage of downhill races that I just 'had' to watch (aka they put on and made me watch).

What a time lapse eh. I last posted from Scotland, and now I write from the Isle of Wight. A holiday sandwich!<div><br></div><div>To say I've had a time of it in the last 6 weeks, is to understate it, but I'm feeling a little more in control now. </div><div><br></div><div>The Kiddicare store where I work is closing and I am being made redundant. I had major anxiety about it. The job is more than a job, it was my life support, my aim post surgery last year, it was my crutch during quiet days, it was my purpose and my colleagues are my friends. The thought of it not being there frightened me. I totally panicked. But I'm excited to say that I have found a new job, in a bicycle shop no less. They are giving me my own perfect hours and they are as excited to finally have a woman on the team as I am excited to be dealing with bikes and cycle mad people. This lady knows bike mad men!</div><div><br></div><div>I've been back to the hospital and had confirmation that my back isn't (wasn't) right. I'm not crazy!! Ok, I am, but you totes know what I mean. One of my screws was too close to a nerve, and I've since had an injection into the nerve. It has taken a while to settle, but it is so much better.</div><div><br></div><div>There are lots of life updates on the children and on Paul.

I needed to write to you all and share the process.. Bear with me..!<div><br></div><div>As I mentioned, I've been taking some tablets to help me manage my head space and emotions. They are working a treat and I am able to manage and help myself cope with 'stuff' a bit better. A lot better actually. But on the flip side I'm aware that I am taking a chemical to alter my brain patterns and that any improvements I'm feeling aren't potentially real.. If you see what I mean. (As an aside, I get frustrated when I see my counsellor and she makes me fill out a form detailing my feelings on a sliding scale... OF COURSE IM FEELING LESS DEPRESSED! Hellloooo! I've got anti-depressants!! Ahem. Anyway.)</div><div><br></div><div>My first lightening moment of the week happened with the annoying counsellor, who I hate seeing and who I dont value the time I 'waste' with. Damnit, I'm aware of the irony. I wasn't aware of the lightening moment when it happened either, I was to busy crying for myself and hating her session. But a couple of days of calm process later and I can clearly see her point. </div><div><br></div><div>I am too busy managing everyone else's feelings, to manage my own.</div><div><br></div><div>That's a scary thing to put out there. It's a big thing to admit to and recognise. But recognise it I have. I have realised that I worry more about how to manage other peoples reaction to me and or my feelings, and I don't process my own feelings. For example, I will w<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">orry more about how my depression effects you, then how it effects me. I will try and make you feel better about it, long before I start on myself. I need to start letting other people own how they feel, let them deal with that, and just own my own shizzle. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Phew. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">So then. Today I went to see my osteopath. He's an amazing guy, at least a generation older than me, turtleneck and flip flop wearing. I'm a little bit in love with him. Not only does he help my broken body (I'm aware of the strong term there), he also offers unintentional counsel.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">At the start of every session he watches me walk back and forth across the room to gauge my gait and levels of discomfort etc. Today he commented 'you always walk so nervously Sarah, are you in pain?' I laughed and said, 'Ironically no. Not today. Between you and Lucy (massage), you are both taming the beast at the moment'</span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Bam. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">The lightening moment was realising, as I laid on his couch and he manipulated my pelvis, was that I am nervous. ALL. THE. TIME. I am constantly anxious, nervous and on edge. I anxiously walk about waiting for my back, or the metal beast that lives on my back, to rear it's ugly head and stop my movement with a single sharp jab of it's whip like tail.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">What an analogy.. I realise it's a bit weird to talk of steel rods as a beast. I realise it's a bit odd to walk around nervously waiting for the next bite. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Whilst it's odd, it has also opened up the realisation that I am feeling so anxious about everything and everyone because I am waiting for the next beating. I am broken and cowed into submission by a piece of metal that was (and actually does to a degree) supposed to fix me.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">What a head space to live in.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br></span></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXkeiOkeS_7cZiYrx8OoJiP4caZ0XnREGVwShM_CaDBEsMjd3G57YhXIqTnPTJVnoetFFwLVvpfdfQq3fochVbtpFW2PzuuBANl1VGeksYQX7EpOEb0zdZ8v5KuqvUmnNlGTdVyvZVF7ex/s640/blogger-image-391617259.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXkeiOkeS_7cZiYrx8OoJiP4caZ0XnREGVwShM_CaDBEsMjd3G57YhXIqTnPTJVnoetFFwLVvpfdfQq3fochVbtpFW2PzuuBANl1VGeksYQX7EpOEb0zdZ8v5KuqvUmnNlGTdVyvZVF7ex/s640/blogger-image-391617259.jpg"></a></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">The excitement I'm feeling comes from</span></div><div><font face="Helvetica Neue Light, HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif">knowing I am making small, if painful, realisations.
