About Me

My photo
I am a full-time mama with a passion for writing and talking to fascinating people. I live in a one horse town with a Cowboy and my son. Thank Lord for cyberspace! I lived a colourful life in Sydney for a number of years. Working in advertising and journalism for FPC and the Sydney Morning Herald. During my time in Sydney I competed in a Dragon Boat race, choreographed a dragshow, used the Share Accomodation advertisements as a way to meet men and was told by Noiseworks frontrunner Jon Stevens that I was a bitch! Then came the decision to move back to country for 3 months to help out my Father with newspaper business while he was having treatment. Convinced I was a city girl I was caught by surprise when I fell in love with a farmer (and no, he didn't want a wife... still doesn't it seems!) convinced him that we needed to see the world, popped off to Vietnam to teach english in Saigon - before realising that the "food" in Nam didn't agree with me... turned out to be Monte - my son who is now with the Cowboy and I back in country NSW! I am in a wonderful stage of my life where I am focusing on the things that really make me tick. Including writing these chronicles.

PT Session Two conquered!

Despite having no-one to babysit - Cowboy and I stuck to our commitment and attended PT Session two - still raw and sore from PT Session 1.
The Prince came along with us
It actually motivated me - he clapped the whole time I did the weights! Urging me to go one more, one more - telling myself I was an inspiration to the boy - when really he was probably thinking 'maba da ma na maba ba" (translation: what the hell is Mum doing?)
I got a little further before nausea snuck in this time too! A gallant effort.
So week one 2 sessions - the test now is tomorrow our PT told us that we have to do a session a week on the weekend.
It is a misery to be tired from hard workout and not able to sleep due to night time Mama duties but as I have discovered by a british blog i have discovered - Sleep is for the Weak.
All in all - the workouts are helping me feel good about myself - endorphins are pumping along with the iron!

Promise to have pics soon.

  1. Way to go!
    exercise is something we always put off, but when you do it, you never regret it. I am glad that you are feeling good and sticking with it!
    hopefully I can be inspired by you to get moving myself.
