Does anyone else ever question their approach to life after an entire weekend of binge watching a TV series on Netflix? I know it's somewhat of a cliche. I mean, what is Netflix for, if not for wasting away vast quantities of time on questionable content? However I've come to realise that it's not just Netflix that ropes me in harder than an ASOS discount code. I'm the kind of girl that either jumps in feet first or doesn't give something a second glance. I've never really been one to dip my toes in the water and perhaps that's why I end up in situations such as this, where I'm pretty sure my eyes will call it quits on me if I so much as hover my fingers over the TV, 'on' switch.
I have a similar ethos towards food. The good intentions are in there somewhere trying desperately to be heard, but more often than not I'm too busy silencing her with chocolate or biscuits because you know, there's no such thing as just having one. I don't even want to comment on how I deal with conflict. Let's just say that I'm pretty much the crazy cop that goes in guns blazing before eventually figuring out that he's got the wrong guy - and yes, that's a reference to the TV series I've been binging on. I'm starting to wonder if I should be concerned.
When it comes to being all in, there is one exception to this rule and it takes the shape of a crochet blanket. I say blanket... Started some time in April; although there's every chance it could be earlier, it was going to be my Winter warmer, to be passed down through generations of family if I ever manage to pull myself away from Netflix for long enough to produce offspring. The fact of the matter is that it's about as much a blanket as I am, which is kind of a weird statement re-reading this but I'm going to go with it.
So here's the part where I make a statement that I'm probably not going to live up to, but I'm going to make it anyway. I WILL finish this blanket before Christmas 2015 and whilst yes, you may think that's a very long time away, I'm already having palpitations over the fact that I need to grab that needle and get cracking.
