had an outstanding golf lesson! PGA look out (NOT). but now i'm dog tired- even too tired to type anymore so i'm hitting the sac! Wendy must be out getting herself hammered! Let's hope she gets lucky too!

Urgh! Today seems to be the coldest so far! My flat is warm, but I was cold from the moment I got up! I look like the Michelin Man today from all the layers (4!). Fell off the diet wagon last night due to the cold and the bottle of choc spread, but it will have lasted 3 days which is a record for me! Probably because it's so cold that it's difficult to get it out of the bottle! My boss is away today, and I've typed the one letter required. Just have to send off some documents later and then I'm done for the day. Wish I could spend the rest of it at home in bed though! Will be gettin stuff to make a big stew tomorrow so that I can stick to the diet next week.

Meg

Well, not hammered as hope and home early too Got home by 1am and wish I had a few more drinkies...although I only spent about $5.00 and had more that 5 drinks....I'm such a lush...not!And no, I didn't get lucky..but I do get to come home and hog the whole bed which in my mind is better than having to deal with kickin' someone out before my son wakes up! LOL!
have a good day/sleep

Loves ya,
Wendy

Wendy - I'm shocked - not! I can understand the 'getting him out befor dawn' thing, but I do miss sleeping with someone (even though I'm known for shifting around until they fall out!) I'm so bored now and nothing's happening. The boss has just left to collect a permit and I may just scuttle off just now befor I do something drastic!

Have a wonderful weekend and I'll see you all next week.

Meg

You would not believe the weather. Yesterday it was so hot I was wearing shorts. Today it is bucketing down. There are puddles everywhere and the place looks like it could flood. Incredible contrast. I guess I should expect the rain – it’s winter after all – but after a beautiful day yesterday I’m a bit shocked. I went out this morning and planted a few things while the ground was soft and the rain could bed it all in but I got too wet. I was soaked LOL.

Other than that it;s been a totally lazy day. Didn’t sleep much last night but I did spend 3 hours sleeping this afternoon. Definitely the weather to be snuggled in bed. Plus it’s first day of TOM so always good to rest up. I get zits when it’s TOM so the extra sleep helps get rid of them. Plus I am bored out of my skull. Don’t feel like reading. Nothing on tv, don’t feel like playing bridge. DEFINITELY don’t feel like working, tidying or putting away washing. Although I did make the supreme effort of chucking everything in the dishwasher and turning it on. The dogs are bored too. especially Saffie. They’ve been out to play in the rain but of course it wasn’t a lot of fun! Jazz zoomed around and got soaked to the skin but other than that it’s been quiet for them too

Eating has been crappy too. pasta for dinner. a muffin and a chocolate truffle (divine) for breakfast


susie - you like golf? well i guess it could be good exercise but i've always thought it was a hideously boring game. i don't have the patience for it. plus it's hard to play well and i don't like anything i'm not instantly good at

i've missed something somewhere. wendy who did you go out with? and why did you get hammered? just wanting to let your hair down or something else going on? i'm such a granny these days. i just want to get home to my bed (without or without company). altho truthfully i'd be too embarrassed to go to bed with a guy. it would take me a month to get ready by the time i plucked and shaved everything, and got rid of all the zits and got over my nervousness. yup i'd definitely HAVE to get hammered before i went to bed with a guy. and that's not counting general apathy and the fact i'm barely fit enough to walk the dogs let alone anything else

meg how cold does it get where you live? its raining here but it's not cold at all. very mild. the rain definitely feels like winter. i think we are getting a whole month of rain in 1 day - but the temperature is not too cold. as for your 4 layers. sheesh that's a typical day for me. i feel the cold big time

I never thought i'd like golf or have patience for golf, but it turns out that since i quit karate, i've been missing wacking at something! It's also an activity we cando as a whole familly!

I didn't get hammered!And was home early and alone! I'm turning into such a good girl! Just thought a night out with friends was a good idea since the only conversation around here is with a 2 year old!!
We are having a big rain storm here today and I LOVE it! It also means that I won/t be getting any exercise outside today..,that's ok I don't mind a day off.
Have a good day/evening/night all!

i did my running workout again today! I'm so proud of myself- am doing some serious house cleaning and furniture moving today!

oooh karate. are you one of those women that scale walls and assassinate the baddies i'd love to do karate but it's too physical for me. i can't see why the whole family can't do it?

i slept forever last night. almost 12 hrs. it was broken but i am shattered. i need to break this cycle. i'm not getting anything done

Hey Ladies,

I trust we all had a good weekend? Mine involved lots of dvd's. Four in total. Narnia (disappointing) Fantastic 4 (better) The Incredibles (wonderful) and Mysteries of Egypt (ok). Nearly went out for a movie with internet guy, but he got stuck and couldn't make it! Luckily! I feel no spark, but he still seems keen and I don't want to lead hime on or anything... I'm confused! I'll just hang on and see what happens.

Sweet - we're on the Highveld here and are high altitude wise, so it get pretty cold in winter. 0 deg and below, but with beautiful clear, sunny days! Always nice if you're out of the wind. Last week was a major cold front that came through and it was FREEZING!! Yesterday and today are better, but there seems to be another front on the way. I also know what you mean about all the 'upkeep' that needs to be done before inviting someone into your bed - the same applies to me! It's been so long I'm not sure that I remember what to do!!

I ate badly - WAAAY too many cupcakes, but I'm back in the saddle today. Have been taken out to a site earlier, so have behaved food wise so far. I made a big curry over the weekend, so that supper tonight, with extra veg!

Must go, letter to type.

Meg

yeah my eating was bad too. but i read some more jan burke. love her novels. not much exercise. actually none. talk about euphemism...

anyway midnight and bed here. talk tmrw when i might be feeling a bit more positive about eating and sleeping and exercising

Sweet - I feel the same way, especially when my routine is broken (like with a public holiday tomorrow!) I did do some weights last night and will do some cardio tonight. Hopefully I can keep my eatins almost under control tomorrow. Doesn't help that my budget is strained and I only have healthy food in the fridge! I may take the time and make some hummous. That is at least healthy and I get veggies in easily! I get to leave early this afternoon as I've got to go pick my brother up at the airport! Should get home before 3pm, with FOUR dvd's to watch!!!

Have a great day, y'all.

Meg

i have stopped myself from bingeing but i am still eating >2000 cals per day and most of it is out of packets and tins so it's not healthy. hmmm have to do some more careful grocery shopping i guess

Hey, sorry I've been MIA but I'm getting ready to go out of town for a few days!! I'll be back on Sunday or Monday so have fun with out me!

Ok, bye, I'll miss you all!
Cheers!
