    Sparkles, babe, you're so much better without him. I know, easy for me to say etc etc. But you are, sweetheart - you've had such a positive few months & your exercise regime is really kicking in. Don't let numpty-head spoil it all.

    I know, I keep thinking of how positive I have felt over the last few weeks when I have not seen him and then as soon as I see him for a couple of hours it all goes to pieces.

    Picking myself up as we type - off for a creme egg and not to beat myself up about having a day off exercising. Felt a bit guilty not exercising today, however it is good to let the muscles rest for a day or so.

    Here is my plan to keep busy tomorrow

    get up
    walk dog
    have breakfast
    25mins cardio
    Shower and change
    get in the garden and make a start on tidying it up
    Lunch and cuppa
    Carry on with the garden
    Tidy up
    Walk dog
    Eat lots of chocolate
    Bath
    Yoga
    Make something nice for tea
    Order trees and plants
    Watch rest of Pride and Prejudice DVD

    Spend every minute busy and keep mind distracted then no temptation to drink later on

    I enjoyed the new Dr more than I thought - mind you i found the last one a bit much when he started. It's the lines they read that make it too

    In the same way we help people with their SOA's I thought I'd offer some pointers on this plan
    get up don't rush this one...
    walk dog or this one...unless it's raining!
    have breakfast enjoy!
    25mins cardio
    Shower and change
    get in the garden and make a start on tidying it up see above about the raining situation
    Lunch and cuppa maybe 2 cuppas, just to keep you going? ;)
    Carry on with the garden again, think about the rain
    Tidy up
    Walk dog what, again?!
    Eat lots of chocolate you should do more of this!
    Bath really really don't rush this one ;)
    Yoga would this be better before the bath? Then it could be an uber chilled bath
    Make something nice for tea
    Order trees and plants
    Watch rest of Pride and Prejudice DVD Mr Darcy = nom nom nom :D

    Hope that helps :A

  • Well done on getting past those wine bells Sparkles.
    You are doing great even though you are having to cope with all
    the emotions that seeing the ex brings up.

    Thanks for your mega post Budgie

    I'm declaring I am going to be AF too tonight. I'm tempted though.

    Do more nice things.
    Do less horrible things.

    There's a philosophy for you ;)

    Oh yes HB yoga will before the bath!

    The weather forecast for West Yorkshire looks good for most of tomorrow so project garden can begin!

    I watched Pride and Prejudice when it was on TV in 1995 and then rediscovered it on LoveFilm

    I'm enjoying renting all the period dramas I missed while we were together as he disliked them - Cranford - very good. Wives and Daughters good

    Pride and Prejudice - First half watched and very good, looking forward to watching another episode after this Dorothy Show finishes

    I find it nice to watch an hour long episode when there is nothing else on TV

    Well I'vedjust washed up, made a cuppa and I think my curry has made my skin react :eek: It was only mild!!!

    Off to update the 96hr list now :D
