new year is coming

* note the frown lines - courtesy of mommy

year 2009 is just around the corner..

for me, every new year would be a new year to start afresh or atleast try to start afresh... and this time around instead of waiting for 1.1.2009 to come, ive decided to start earlier in my attempt to fulfill all my new year resolutions/or resolutions carried from previous years...

every morning, i'll try to the best of my ability to wake up early and perform my subuh prayer (while in the hope that my little boy Emir will not wake up while Im praying)...

every morning too, i do wish i could squeeze in atleast 15-30 minutes of exercise or atleast stretching (that's a good way to start a regime which ive abandoned since I gave birth last feb, 09)... since Emir came into my life, my life has been revolving around him.. poor chubbyhubby... im so grateful that he is so understanding and such a wonderful daddy...

that too is my new year and life's resolution, to be a better wife to my chubbyhubby....

ok so far ive got three (3) resolutions:

1. to wake up early and perform my subuh prayer... insyallah, if emir doesnt wake up during that time, to read surah yassin... and aaaahhh... that would be such a wonderful way to start the day...

2. to atleast slot some exercise time before I go to work (I did try to achieve this during lunch time when i go back home, but time is too limited so that one goes down the drain and I did try to slot in time when i come back from work but that too doesnt work considering i've to prepare dinner / breastfeed Emir / perform my asar and maghrib prayers / take my bath... well, you get the picture)

3. be a better wife for chubbyhubby.... be more patient.... everything more lah :)

In view of item (2), bearing in mind im only in my early 30s... and i want to emotionally and physically feel that im at that age... so i need to be more active and focus more on achieving above said... just that ive to find the best way/time to do so... plus, in the event that chubbyhubby and i decide to/are prepared for another baby (insya allah).. then, i'd be in the top of my health for the new pregnancy... and have the energy to take care of emir at the same time!!! phieewww!!! and manage the household... double phieewww!!!

am i jumping the gun? i do have the tendency of thinking too far ahead... and highly likely have passed on the "frown lines" to Emir cause he seems to have those whenever he's in deep thoughts or staring at strangers...

planning is good but i think i'll try living my life by "not sweating too much on the small stuff" (got that one from oprah's book club)

in the mean time, i'll just start my new year resolutions with more smiles .....

a nice way to start the year eh...
