Christmas Presents

Ok these are what I have been working on

The purple one is a present for my niece and the log cabin design is for my mum

The Weekend is over already

as well not quite there are a couple more hours and then its over.

Productive if not completely boring weekend - started badly with a stinker of a headache Friday which did not go away until Sunday morning - but as they say the show must go on.

Saturday washing done, oven cleaning done, time with Grant - done the house while not perfect is clean and tidy ready for the house sitters

Fridge is nearly empty will restock with house sitters favs on Wednesday

Friday Grant bought clothes to wear so at least that is one major thing off the list before we go away.

Today went to Homebush and picked up a new TV for my girl - freebie - love freecycle nice that things aren't just tossed away when they are still working

ok so when i get back from holiday i will figure out how to easily transfer pics here and then the truly boring posts will begin.

Ok off to do more mundane house stuff

Second day of Spring

Well I would love to have heaps of really interesting stuff to write but nope my life - just boring.

Worked today - had from lunch a a flex to try and sort out some clothes to take on the trip - I have bought shorts not convinced they look ok but I will ask Katherine and she will let me know if her mother is going to make a complete prat of herself.

9 days till the trip and I havent started to pack or get organised - should I be concerned? I just tired and coming home to face sorting out clothes and packing just seems like way too much effort right now - this time next week I will be in a flap - but heys thats life.

Nothing else to write - gunna watch tele

First day of Spring

Ok the weather was wonderful - my mood not great what can I say I am over work well and truely but as the lotto man will not call me I need to work.

After work straight to gym ( yay for me) sorted putting my membership on hold and personal trainer sessions to commence when I return - god it is depressing making plans for after the holidays.

Copied all the travel documents today - so just need to sort thought them now and check that we have everything.

Food - not great but again when feeling overwhelmed at work resort to chocolate - must stop bringing money to work Ithink

ok thats my life - how sad and boring am I

till tomorrow

Last day of old me

Ok so I have not written on this in a long long time

Jazminda is wonderful and she and her mum amaze me with their smiles.

Me well I have managed to lose all of wait for it - -------- point 2 of a kilo since last posting some 18 months ago - patheticI know.

Nice boyfriend ( Grant) and I are off to discover ancient ruins in 12 sleeps ( and you all thought I was the most ancient ruin there was)

Tomorrow first day of spring - so I need to Spring Clean my life.

goal for this week - to update this nightly and to do one thing just for me each day

lets see what Monday brings

7 December 2006

Jazminda Ivy Lee - pictured here with proud Grandma and Grant -

Katherine and Ian - congratulations shes wonderful glad you are all healthy -

I am soo Ashamed

Ok well I started this way back in March and to date what have I managed to do - nothing - well not exactly nothing instead of losing weight I have actually gained!!!!!!

How stupid am I - I know what I should be doing but did I do it nooooo and here I am the heaviest I have ever been.

So the last week despite work driving me nuts I have planned meals shopped cooked and tracked and tracked and tracked so I am Back.

I have been lucky enough to online chat to a few lovely women from the Weight Watchers message board who are a huge inspiration ( you know who you are), and another email friend and we are working at keeping each other honest. The goal for July is to track everything.


There are no pics just the rants of someone old enough to know better.

Quote for July -

"Learn from other peoples mistakes cause life is too short to make them all yourself"
