    Let's see how that one goes then!

    Well I was so giddy and feeling so much better I cleaned the LR and bathroom making tomorrow much easier now those jobs are done

    Plus after 30mins yoga - feel so much better too!

    Good start to the day - took my measurements and have lost some more inches - from waist and chest, everything else has stayed the same let's see if I have lost some weight when I get weighed later today

    Have done a load of washing in the vain hope of it drying this morning!

    Sounds like the usual whirlwind of activity at yours :D

    Good move to change pod to cottage - walls are warmer, dampness is not good for the soul. Great work on the inch & weight loss. I'm great monday to thursday then it all goes wrong on a friday. Keeping up with the yoga as it does far more than just give the muscles a good stretch & I'm about to take up walking as again, it is very therapeutic as well as exercise.

    Happy happy holibob to you - hope you have a lovely time & look forward to hearing all about it :)

    I've been busy busy non stop all day! and haven't got around to packing yet eek!

    Cleaned the house, went for a run, went to town and bought a new top (reduced of course) and put back the several other items. Dog had his holiday bath and then had the face on afterwards!

    Have put a few meals together to take and got the kitchen stuff ready and the dog's stuff ready. Then finally tomorrow get my stuff ready and off I go in the morning

    Chucked a stew in to cook to take as the weather looks pretty autumnal for the next week - glad in a cottage now and will be warm and dry

    Right off to pack now in a frenzy and get ready to go

    See you all next week!

    Back home after a great week away which was v.enjoyable. True mixed bag of weather but warm throughout the week and a lovely tranquil location with fantastic views.

    Came home to no water due to building work next door anyway finally got the problem sorted and then found it v.difficult to get to sleep after a long journey home and then the small disaster

    Managed 1 NSD on holiday and 3 AFDs to up the totals a little

    Today is a big catch up day as have a lot of holiday stuff to sort out

    Good news is a good pass of my last module for this year and a big relief its done. Has pushed my overall average up a bit and need to work hard next year to get it into the merit stage of a pass which I'm aiming for. Very pleased with the good pass as it was a very hard subject and the hard work and stress paid off!

    Hi Lula - thanks for the welcome back. I am pretty shattered today and so is my Mr Dog who is curled up fast asleep after lots of hard walking last week!

    My leg is achy big style so looks like some yoga is in order today to try and stretch out the muscles a bit and see if that eases things a little. Looks like today will be quite a lazy day and washing catch up

    Have just updated the diet plan with food and exercise from last week - over on exercise bigstyle so more kcals burned off but many more calories eaten = balanced out!

    Having this weekend off then back on diet and exercise plan from monday after easing myself back in gently over the weekend!

    What else not much else to report really apart from a lot of lounging around today I think to recover

    Caught up a bit today - swept and mopped the floors, cleaned half the bathroom and the rest to do tomorrow after the dog is bathed. Plenty of washing drying outside and I'm resting my leg after all the walking knacked up the muscles again. Going to be a resty weekend I think and then the diet kicks back in as I attempt to get back on track and also try and stick to GC budget and the NSD totals

    Early night tonight as I am cream crackered today maybe 1 drink with tea later on which is bottom of the fridge pizza topping and sake and tonic and see if I can stay up for coldplay tonight
