Aftermath…


Christmas has taken more out of me than I
thought.

Will power is a funny thing, everyone has it even
when they think they don’t. It takes some will power to get out of bed in the
morning and it takes some small effort to breath too I suppose, but when you
give yourself an excuse to throw what will power you think you have in the trash
then there are consequences.

On the
ladder of self control I came down a few rungs on holiday earlier last year. The
mixture of eating out and cheap Spanish wine became a cocktail of indulgence
that i never really recovered from but knew there would be a time when I would
have to once again face the music. I needed a natural break and Christmas was
it. Having set a target loosely wrapped in the good intentions of a New Years
resolution I set about a Christmas blow out of gargantuan proportions. Eat,
drink and be merry they say… I took it all to the extreme. I had no will
power, I’d sold out to a resolution, and it wasn’t New Year
yet.

So New Year came and went and true
to my work the excess stopped. All well and good initially until I tried to get
back to work.. no chance! My brains fried! Try as I might I can’t keep focused
on a task more that 10 minutes, an absolute zombie. I looked in the mirror today
to find a beard i didn’t know I had! I’ve lost life’s little
rhythm.

So having found my detox for
the body I now need to find my detox for the brain.
