Last Tuesday - day one of this glorious new term - I wrote a list of new academic year’s resolutions. Here’s the week one review:
1. Don’t
leave washing up exclusively to Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Last week was truly excellent on
the washing up and kitchen cleaning front (I could’ve eaten my dinner
directly off the kitchen work top and licked it clean that surface was so
regularly Dettol-ed), but yesterday the dirty plates seemed to reproduce when
we weren't looking and were left unwashed. Nevermind!
2. Use a
small wine glass rather than a big one. (Mid-week).
So far, so good. San Miguel was
on offer in Sainsbury's so I've not had one mid-week glass of wine yet!
3.
If in need of resorting to cake, think of a proper solution to the problem
instead. Consuming unnecessary calories won’t help.
No need to resort to cake yet -
yes! Ate a doughnut in our staff meeting today but I didn’t ‘resort’ to it.
4.
Don’t leave tidying clothes into the wardrobe exclusively for Friday, Saturday
and Sunday.
If you ignore yesterday’s tights
and Friday’s PE kit then I’m winning!
5.
Give Sainsbury’s less of your money in meal deals by making lunch on at least
4/5 days per week. If on the 5th
day Sainsbury’s is too tempting, always ignore the Mexican flavoured,
mayonnaise laden wrap, even if the packaging is deceptively green in
colour.
I’ve made sandwiches every day so
far and I was even bothered enough to take some mini tomatoes in a Tupperware
box today too. Go me!
6.
Do something other than work or vegging on the sofa on at least one evening
during each working week.
Last week I did my Olympic
scrapbook one night. I was
sat on the floor next to the sofa so I think it counts.
7.
Run. (Fitness innit).
I nearly went on a run last Thursday.
8.
Don’t hoard mugs in your classroom like they’re treasure.
Err… There are a couple of them
(possibly three) currently sitting in the sink… Shh… At least I’ve not had to
hide any under the sink yet out of embarrassment.
Effort: B
Achievement:
