Call Me Loser!

-
As expected with the holidays, we've had family, relatives and friends gathering together. With so much scrumptious food and a lot of good company, it's not called the happiest time of the year for nothing. :)

The good times come with unwanted extras though. The holiday binge-eating "gifted" me with at least 5 additional pounds. Oh no! LOL. Hello muffin-top! My daily mantra since day 1 of 2011 has been: ...must... lose... weight!

PS: I did lose more than a kilo (for real) since cutting out junk food from my diet, controlling portions, being (slightly more) active and drinking green tea. :D

That's a start right?

A sampling of the holiday binge-eating follows...

School and a Mixed Bag of Emotions

"You can’t imagine your life with kids, until you have them, then you can’t imagine your life without them." ~Author Unknown It's been a week since two of our three sons flew to Manila to attend their classes. Even with the (remaining) 9 year old son at home, doing his usual stuff alternately watching tv, tinkering with his Legos, cutting/ folding/ creating things with paper and playing with the iPad, and making a ruckus all by his lonesome, the house is, weirdly, quiet. I often find myself introspecting... about the nest almost empty now and other similar thoughts. And I struggle to stop myself from wallowing in a mixed bag of emotions. It's not a bad thing, except, I could waste hours doing that. I thought I was totally in control and could dismiss the situation as another milestone, like seeing your child lose his first baby tooth. Nothing a warm hug or an ice cream could not fix. On the contrary, that hug at this time just exacerbates the yearning. It ...

Looking at old photos is becoming my favorite activity to pass time. Thanks to popular memes on instagram and the instant access to pictures at flickr, I get to dig them up, view them and be transported back in time... in a snap.
