Everyday posts, what’s on my mind.
Holidays equal family! We went for breakfast and pancakes. Then there were adorable New Year’s letters and table-sized animal puzzles…
What about you? Are you able to fit in family-time in a busy schedule? Any family members you would like to spend more time with?
Remember how my last post boasted about posting new material every week?
Well, that didn’t quite happen, did it?
“And from now on, I will write one piece a week…”
That was his last post… 😉
It reminds me of those “famous last words of adventurers”-quotes…
– “Don’t worry, I’ll go first.”
– “I’ll bet my head that cave is empty!”
– “I bet it’s an illusion.”
– “Magic users are WIMPS!”
– “Naw – it’s just sleeping…”
– “Oh, don’t be so paranoid…”
– “But it’s only a LITTLE red dragon.”
Don’t let my lack of posts fool you, though, we’ve been very busy these past few months… all in the spirit of NoMoreMovies!
Here’s what we did…
Year after year I am amazed with what you can accomplish in twelve months if you put your back into it. Working towards clearly defined goals is the only thing that keeps me from procrastinating. It gives me a sense of accomplishment and personal growth. This year I doubled the stakes by making two lists: a personal one and one for my little blog project.
Here’s what 2017 has in store for NoMoreMovies…
Winter is coming. No, I’m not referring to a new season of Game of Thrones… I’m talking about how you can sense that the year is drawing to a close. Days are getting shorter and the air is getting chilly in the evening. In short: it’s Sofie’s favorite time of year to go out for a walk. Or a night walk for that matter!
Today is the day after. The day after my first High Intensity Interval Training (= HIIT). There are dozens of reasons why I should have disliked this challenging workout, but in reality I enjoyed it. Allow me to share a story on overcoming my fear of group workouts. A story on Les Mills and the amazing team at EcoGym. And most of all: a story on the importance of allowing yourself to be bad at things…

There we have it. It’s been two full weeks since my last post. I promised myself this wouldn’t happen, yet it did. The most important things when starting a blog is making sure there is new content. I failed to find the time. Yes, I have some valid excuses: I was sick for a whole week. Damn you, Brie cheese! I’ll never eat you again! (Shakes fist at the universe). The week after that we went camping for a few days with my family and my adorable godchild Magali.
Although they are both worthy excuses, they are still only that: excuses. If we want to make this blog work, as with everything in life, we will have to find solutions, not excuses.
This year I got 35 candles on my cake. It hit me harder than I expected:
