Advice to self...

01:02am 16/11/2004

mood:

tired

If I am already knackered from a hard day at work when I finish at 8pm...

It is not a good idea at half past midnight to decide I want to look at handbags on ebay...

There are some gorgeous ones on there too, but when I have no money, tempting myself with Ebay is a very silly idea...

Gaah! tired and was entertaining notion of going to the gym tomorrow morning before work...

Yawn...

12:52am 15/09/2004

mood:

tired

Well today we spent the day in Plymouth which was cool - luckily Coddy's friend Neo had the day off work and so we arrived at his in time for some lunch and so went to the Wetherspoons and Coddy and Neo started drinking. I also met one of his friends Brooksy who had a cracked rib that hurt him everytime we made him laugh.

Then after lunch and a few diet cokes later (for me!) we went back to Neo's and watched Shaun of the Dead I love that film and it was the first time that Coddy had seen it and he was very impressed too. Neo's flat is very cool and it even has a balcony that you can look out of and see the sea! We met his girlfriend Rachel who seems lovely and a good match for him.

We then went round to see Mark and Sarah his girlfriend and also saw Al, Stuart and Bill and watched them watch football - which I've not done for ages! We discussed our various cysts and then we drove back to Callington at about 11.30pm and it is scary driving in the dark here as there aren't many streetlights around, so I had to find full beam to put on...but I managed to get us back here in one piece!

Dairy Milk Turkish Naughtiness!

09:31am 13/09/2004

mood:

accomplished

Well yesterday was a lovely day, we got up early and for some reason I felt hungover despite only have a single glass of red wine the previous night. We then drove to Bristol which was an effort as I was feeling very sleepy and it also seems that the rule on the M4 is to refuse to indicate when changing lanes.

Anyway, we made it there in one piece and saw Celeste and Stu and the gorgeous little Lucy who was wearing a very cute dragon outfit. Even Coddy held her (only his 2nd baby ever!) and was very enamoured with her despite her being a bit sick on his tshirt and filling her nappy whilst he was holding her - maybe there is hope for us having codlings at some point!

We then drove to Exmouth which was a nice journey, but very rainy on the way there. Lucien - Coddy's brother told me that I had lost weight which was nice, but said after that that at Christmas I was looking a bit podgy - lovely!

I was then naughty and ate lots of chocolate, but it seems this morning it's not done any harm just yet as I'm now at 11 stone 1 and have reached my goal 10% weight loss weight - but it's now telling me that I'm losing weight too fast...oh well, more chocolate then! Dairy Milk Turkish is gorgeous by the way...but very bad in points...but hey I guess I'm on holiday...I just need to figure out a way to exercise so I can get some more bonus points!

Breakfast time now...

Farenheit 911

12:16am 23/07/2004

mood:

sleepy

Just got back from the cinema we went to see Farenheit 911 and I was impressed at the amount of people at the showing on a Thursday after it's been out for a while, also it's very rare that I see people applauding a film at the end of it either.

I did like the film, but I was a bit uncomfortable with the fact that Michael Moore seems too keen to demonise Bush and make him into a bit of a pantomine baddie rather than present a more balanced view that might actually swing those hard core Bush fans.

Anyway, I'm glad I went to see it and I like going to the cinema, need to make sure that we do it more frequently - last film we saw was Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, but before then it was Lord of the Rings before Christmas!!!

I am now starting to fall asleep and my eyes glaze over, so I will go to bed now.

Night night..

I'm not going to be a diet bore...but

07:44pm 19/07/2004

mood:

pleased

I've lost 4lb so far on 2 weeks of weight watchers - I am very pleased with myself, especially as according to my scales my fat % has reduced from 41% to 36% as well - just need to get to 33% and below on that to be "healthy"

Managed to get to the gym again today and will go again tomorrow as it's making me feel very energised and positive about myself - so I'm starting the day off in a reasonable mood... I might even see below 11 stone before long....(and I severely binged at the wedding at the weekend as well!!!

New Hall.....

11:22pm 27/06/2004

mood:

creative

We finished this off pretty much the weekend before last when my parents were here, but I am so proud, that I feel it only right that I publish the before and after pictures of my new hall - which incidentally had the set back that when we removed some of the horrible wallpaper - plaster started to fall off and my poor Dad had to learn how to plaster very quickly!

Before....(by the way this was taken before we moved in in 2002 with my first ever digi camera!)

	I was woken up at 5am this morning, by Stipey chasing something around, which I realised through my bleary eyes was a mouse! He's never bought anything more exciting in than a worm before, so this was quite an achievement for him...I have no idea where he got a mouse from, because I've never seen any round here... I woke Coddy up who removed it...but then I was wide awake, so now I'm knackered....
