I need some self control

I seriously lack this vital personal trait. I am supposed to be spending no money on yarn/fabric/any craft stuff that is not for a swap partner. So what do I do? I sign up for the WoolGirl Sock Club. I couldn't resist, I'd heard so many good things. AND, of course, the justification? You don't have to pay until March. Which happens to be the month I get my annual bonus. Serendipity? I think so :)

I also need to get myself back into going to the gym mode. I seriously lack any motivation these days. It took me an hour to get out of bed this morning to drag myself there. I guess the good news is I went. They say it takes two weeks to re-establish your habits. . . that seems like an EON! I must say it doesn't help that, despite the fact that I haven't been to the gym regularly since, oh, NOVEMBER, I've LOST weight. I realize it is probably lost muscle tone, but, really, give me SOMETHING here! AGH! Anyone else not feeling the New Year Fitness routine?

I'd be with you in the fitness realm, except I'm not starting mine routine until I have this baby.
And buying yarn isn't the worst thing in the world... :)

Yay for joining the woolgirl sock club!! I love it!!

Have you tried the "If I workout this many times I can buy some yarn" idea?!! It works for me sometimes!

It took me a bit to get started with the new years workout routine, but 3 times this week...that's huge! The two weeks will get here quick! Keep it up!

Umm, yeah, shoot. I missed my second yoga class because I was going to visit Gracie in the hospital. Need to take care of me so I can take care of her...now, where is my motivation? I know I left it around here somewhere...
