Wow I can't believe its that close to Christmas, that's coming around scarily fast. I don't take part in challenges, simply because everytime I have I've failed no matter how hard I've tried
I wonder when this bad weather is going to stop, I've got a BBQ planned for the weekend, and I'm hoping it'll be brighter by then.
I'm am so very sick of this horrible weather - saying that it was quite nice here in Cambridge yesterday. Not boiling but not cold either - we had guests round so we ended up in the house all day.
Please don't mention Christmas - I'll start obsessing and I'm depressed enough already. Although... in a way I'm glad to be reminded because I've decided not to do my normal Boxing Day party this year and it would be best to mention it to friends and family now so they can make other plans.
I went to the doctor this morning - sounds silly but every time it starts to rain I start crying - and it was like a scene out of a third world documentary - the queue was so long that some little kids were asleep on the floor! They are giving out antidepressants / tranquillisers to just about everyone.
Well, this house smells. Not sure what of, but it definitely smells. Sort of like a cross between unwashed damp dog and sewers. All of us, humans and dogs, aren't happy so we're moving out again until its fixed. Its not just us, several people are complaining about the horrible smell inside their homes the difference is that we can't find a trace that water got in the house. I'm wondering if the drains aren't working properly.
Peacock I'm teaching summer school, I have the 9th graders. No fun but good money
I'm skipping the gym today it's so nice out I'm going for a bike ride outside. I need to work out some agression I just got an $150 increase to my mortgage due to some stupid escrow shortfall. I called them because my taxes have gone down, not up, but now I have to fax them all of the info. I hate bad customer service. And......the person on the phone barely spoke English, so I'm not even really sure what I have to send
Here I sit with 2 trembling dogs... there's a firework display going on about a mile up the road, sounds like they're in the back garden though I have all the doors and windows shut and the house is vibrating as it's so loud, can't think how dave is still sleeping. Nearly hit a few pedestrians going to collect Hannah's bike a bit ago, she's at the display and was worried someone would nick it....can't see anyone walking along side the road here, no paths, no streetlights...and I had the high beams on...grrrrrrr.
It was weigh an measure day again today, I'm down another 2 lbs, have lost 10 altogether in the four weeks and 15 inches and over 5% dy fat Am a happy woman.
Sarah, hope the smell goes or you find what it is....
RSG... shame about summer school, but enjoy the money lovey..
Helen - yes toe is better enough to run on However it's a bit worse than it was last Wednesday, but that could be either because I have been running on it, or that I kicked a dude on Thursday with it
Well 2frus - if you well go around picking on the weaker sex......
All this talk of the 'C' word - CHr*stmas.... I dunno. I have told my lot they are all having money. I got fed up last year when people had already bought books after asking others to buy them for them and doubling up on pressies and stuff. I already have some books and stuff for my neice so I think I will just buy the kids presents - in any case the adults can never make up their minds what they want so it will be a lot easier and far less stressful for me!
Jumping July chat......
