Journal Jar

Sometimes I struggle to write a blog post. Sometimes I have a really uninteresting few days and don’t have much to write about. Sometimes I cant be bothered and sometimes feel that you lovely people have better things to do than read my ramblings on. So during my very lazy day today I’ve been on a journey around blogs that I’ve never visited before. I read about someone being stuck in Las Vegas due to the volcanic ash disruption , someone being so depressed she tried to commit suicide, someone had just found out she was pregnant and that someone was struggling financially. Then I stumbled across something called Journal Jar which is a bit like 101 questions. Each time you have had a bit of a ‘boring’ day you can reach in, grab a question and write about it! So, this is what I’m going to do over the next few months when I have less than interesting news to tell you..

Good start..

So after my terrible weigh in last night I gave myself a right b******ing! Today has been a good day, got up did some housework then I actually went to the gym..yep, I went to the gym and flippin’ eck it was hard work but I did it and it felt good (watch me ache tomorrow!), followed by a trip to Tescos for healthy low pointage food and had a nice healthy dinner (italian chicken and salad) bar the small handful of chips I had cos hubby decided to throw the complete sieve of rice all over the kitchen floor!!! I’ve planned my meals for the weekend except for sat night as we’re out at the dogs for hubbys birthday so I am happy!! Tomorrow my sis and nephew are coming over and we’re going to go the park or nearby local nature reserve to get some exercise in so ash cloud pending it should be a good day! MrsYappydog received her secret post club parcel and liked it so that’s pleasing! Will send you the link when I get to my pc, I’m blogging from my bb. Quick shout out to Mandy for her support, “C’mon mandy let’s do it this time, we both know we can!”

Update: here’s the link to Mrsyappydog blog

So annoyed!

Ok, so after my MASSIVE blow out over the past 2/3 weeks I went to weigh in tonight and it was completely horrendous! Why do I do it to  myself! I am literally my own worst enemy! I’m not even going to mention how much it was because i’m completely disgusted with myself and so I am drawing a BIG FAT LINE across what has been a crap four months of indulgence, chocolate, generally being a lard arse and tomorrow is a fresh start. I’ve started a new card at WW and told my leader Gina that i’m definately going to have a loss next week. There are no easter eggs in the house (for me anyway) and i’ve bought some ww goodies to get me through my sweetie cravings and have bought the WW mags for inspiration. I need to do this, I cannot let myself go AGAIN!

ohhhh look what arrived!!!

You may recall that I joined up to the Secret Post Club after reading all about it on a blog that I follow Notes from Lapland. Well on Saturday morning my first ever parcel arrived. I was so excited and I was not disappointed. My parcel had come from Sarah at Supersinglemum and I love it. I received some fab cup cake themed tea towels and a gorgeous pink necklace. Thank you so much Sarah, very thoughtful of you.

I have been trying to decide for the past couple of weeks what to get for my parcel which I am going to send off tomorrow and I havent found the process very easy. You’d think it would be easy to buy for a stranger but its not at all. However I have got some bits and pieces together and I hope the recipent likes them. They do say it’s the thought that counts.

Oops I did it again!

So easter has come and gone and to be honest I’ve loved every minute of it! I’ve been off work since Thursday and I love being at home, leisurely walking the dog, cooking tea and doing housework at my own pace, I love it! Unfortunately the diet has taken a bit of a back seat but I’m having arguments with myself at the minute balancing enjoying myself versus hating my body! I keep thinking ‘you’re 27, have a fab hubby, apart from being overweight ur in good health, stop making things hard for yourself!’ I wish I could just accept myself for who I am but I’m really struggling! I feel like I need to have a massive wardrobe overhaul and need a new look including make up! Where’s gok wan when you need him eh?
Anyways enough of my whinging, went bowling, cinema and pizza hut buffet yesterday for hubbys birthday. We saw Kick Ass which was actually quite good considering we both didn’t really know what it was about! Still, we both enjoyed spending time together and hubby said he had a lovely birthday. Off to see my mom and nephew now which will be nice and taking over my easter eggs that I bought myself so I don’t eat them! I’m sure mom and dad will appreciate them more than I will.
