A Hop, Skip & a Jump...

 

 

 

...a new year always excites me - new beginnings! So to start this year a-fresh I decided not to drink last night (I now, go ahead have a wee yawn - I would!) but when I woke this morning with a clear head (2 schnauzers that need a good walk and a 3 year old full of beans!) I felt pretty good.

 

Believe me I missed the old Kari - faltering home at 6am on The Walk of Shame but the thing I've realised is that I may not be able to do 'that' sort of thing at the moment but my life is not over - in fact it's just beginning...

The School Gate & High Heels...

 For reference... Mr Happy face...

...& Mr Greedy tummy!

It occurred to me today just how much I hide behind what I wear. The more difficult the times, the bigger the sunglasses and the higher the heels! but there in lies a wee problem, I can't drive in heels and there fore end up on the 'school run' wearing beaten up sneakers. Not a problem but as 'the school gate' situation terrifies me (everyone seem so fabulous, so in control!) that I shuffle! So do I change my shoes to walk the 500 yards, continue to do what looks like the 'dodgy mum shuffle' or just get a grip?! 
Enough said - I'll get a grip! (writing anything down is so therapeutic - or just plain old scary to see how bonkers I sound!)
