Weigh In and Weekend Away Update

Well first the good news!

Weigh in on Saturday morning saw:

A Loss of 3.2 kilos!!! - Whoop Whoop

To say I am happy is an understatement

This has been a great start to my new lifestyle journey!

Now to the weekend away at my BFF's - it was great.

I got lots of organising done for my heritage album and I also completed 11 pages in the album as well.

I ate well and stayed on track even when they were all "Oh just have a little piece, it won't hurt, blah blah blah!

I am proud of how I handled myself over the weekend - only thing I would do different - probably incorporate  some excercise - like a small walk!

But overall best weekend so far for 2012!

Weekend Away...........

It will be a good one!

Argh - Pinterest...................

Argh - bugger you Pinterest - you take up way to much of my time!
We need a break
I know I have only just met you but you are consuming my life.
All the possibilities with creating you show me
And the amazing orgnaising ideas are blowing me away
Not to mention the wonderful pictures of amazing Christmas decorations
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yup just wasting yet another evening looking thru pinterest when I should be getting reading for my weekend of scrapbooking with my BFF!!!

Looks like a late nite ahead for me!

Back to Work.......

Found this in our computer

Created by our lovely daughter

Back to work today - boo hoo!

And a busy day with it - end of month to be completed along with helping customer service with keying of our customer orders.

Should make the day go faster!

Hoping to get out for a walk tonight - or maybe a game of squash would be fun? - need to track someone down for that!

Oh the scales smiled nicely this morning!

Biking.................

We managed to get in our bike ride yesterday at the Botanical Gardens:
It was fun , altho I am unfit (as I knew) and we only lasted 50 minutes.

But it was fun and I got to spend some special one on one with my little man!
Oh and we learnt on the way out that we weren't meant to be riding our bikes there - opps!

Self Portrait!

Taking a break

Holidays Ramblings

I have been pottering around my house these last few days I have off.
I am in the middle of decluttering and moving furniture around to see what works best were!

I have also reduced the blogs I follow as it was getting out of hand and I was only really reading a few (lots of craft ones tho - that is the hardest one to sort out!)
I have also reduced "my friends" on facebook and am only going to keep it at 100 - there were a lot that I knew but never saw in person and our lives aren't that connected so I thought best to remove them from facebook, I am going to have a think about a couple more and may even drop a few more.
It does feel good to be reducing things in my life - lets hope the weight follows soon!.

Hubby is busy getting ready for a sports holiday programme is going to be running for the 3 full weeks of Janaury.
My daughter is currently in Huntly staying with a friend for a few days
And my little man is "making do" with playing around the house and constently asking to do this and that of which we say no (roll on payday! - it sucks monthly pays!)

Weightloss journey is going good - I need to get out and have a walk or a bike ride today - maybe thats something Liam and I can do together - maybe the Botanical gardens??

Well thats me for today - must also try and get in some crafting!
