I've been meaning to write a blog for ages, but never got around to it...well here goes. I have an awful lot to say for myself (as my husband never forgets to tell me!) and most of it is probably rubbish but I reserve the right to say it anyway.
Before I had a child I used to work as a Fitness Instructor and really enjoyed it, becoming a stay at home mother was hard for me, and boring but it was ultimately worth it to watch my son grow up and to be there for him...but now is the time that I want to start getting back into work again, not just for the money (which will be very, very useful in this day and age) but because it will be nice to meet people again and not just other mothers at the school gate. However, over this last 14 months in my life, what with one thing and another I have put on 15kgs and I need to lose them and get myself back to being physically fit and also get some study done to refresh all my qualifications.
It sounds easy but I am always short of time, the day flies when my lovely son is in school and then of course the evening is always busy with mundane stuff. So I have to schedule my time very carefully to try to fit it all in. I am aiming to start an exercise programme next week - Monday 25th February, so I have to get a programme designed for myself (which is harder than one would think - so much easier to write one for another person) over the next couple of days and Saturday I am not going to be at home because I am taking part in a Test Panel for Black & Decker in London, testing Steam Mops! So I have to get it done tomorrow and prepare the paperwork to do a food diary etc etc etc......this is my first challenge.
Future blog posts will have more pictures of my progress etc together with training tips and I am happy to answer any questions that you might have.
This isn't just going to be about my fitness though, it is also going to be about how I see things that are happening around me and in the world - for example this case with Oscar Pistorius at the moment, wow what a shocker. I cannot claim to be a fan of his as I was disappointed at his reaction in the 2012 Olympics when he was comprehensively beaten but to think that he has been arrested and charged with murder is unbelievable. I have been following the case daily and there are a few things that interest me at this stage (and yes I have probably been watching way too much CSI-NY), I know that this is only the bail hearing so all the evidence is not going to be published but I would have thought that the main evidence is going to be about his legs and whether or not he was wearing his prosthetics (apparently he claims he wasn't) so therefore wouldn't it be easy to see whether he is lying or not by just working out what height the gun was at when it was fired using the angle of the bullet wounds? That to my mind would be a good start. I don't know whether or not he will get bail, we shall see tomorrow but regardless I think the full case when it comes to court in a few months will be very interesting.
OK so that is my first post, I could actually write a few pages of stuff but am going to save it for another day...possibly tomorrow!
