Back from a run - early out this morning and is taking a while to recover. Felt hungry when I got back and just gone over the calorie allowance for today - never mind have burnt off a bit with the run

Just summoning up some energy to do some gardening now!

fedupandskint

Went over the calorie allowance today but I was hungry after the run and 3hrs gardening - chopped up most of a huge bush to go for recycling garden bin and still quite a bit left to do. Also sowed the last few summer seeds, planted out a few things and aiming to plant out the rest tomorrow. Just off to water the plants in a bit

What else? Listened to half the match on the radio while in the garden and watched the rest on TV then a quick whizz round cleaning - LR, bathroom, stairs, bedroom, spare room and half the kitchen

NSD at last 1/17 - no chance!

A couple of hours in the garden tonight after work which was lovely. No exercise today and a bit over the cal allowance but I was hungry today. Nothing naughty eaten yeah!

Another comment on me looking trimmer from my friend today - yeah!

Not much else going on apart from planning to run first thing in the morning before work then the exercise is done for the day leaving the evening for some cleaning - woo hoo!

Early morning run this morning out and running at 6am then a bit of a mad dash getting ready for work but at least I did it! Stifling day at work in the heat - boy was it stuffy in there. Caved in to a diet coke at lunch time to try and bring me around after a very busy morning. Only 2 more days this week then a day off on Friday that I'm looking forward to which will consist of a lot of pottering and maybe enquiring about another dog - will see if he is still available on Thursday as the place is closed tomorrow.

Very hungry today - eaten loads of fruit, salad, usual stuff then poached fish and veg for tea - yoghurt next and then wash up. Early night tonight I think to catch up on half an hour or so!

Lula-Hula

Good list, although I have cellar envy now; great to be able to store loads of goodies down there

fedupandskint

It sounds good - but I need to knuckle down and clear it out ready for autumn. Maybe do a bit this weekend?

Nice reminder Lula as its one of those things that sits on the list for ages and doesn't get done! In fact I think I will make a start by looking for a new freezer to go in the kitchen and move the other one into the cellar. Oh no means I will pack another one full! Still should get plenty in for winter and be ready in case the weather is dreadful again

Tempted by the half a pig offer from the farm shop - better reign it in a bit!

Anyway on a different note - a surprisingly enjoyable day at work today and a NSD making it a tremedous 2!

Woo it was a day off today, the weekend started early!

Good day - dropped off Mr dog for his haircut, popped to town had a walk around did some errands, collected Mr dog, finally went to the sculpture park and dodged the showers and got soaked on the way home!

Computer went bonkers for a while and has taken a couple of hours to sort out while the heavens opened and thunder and lightening arrived.

Just planning tomorrow - a run? Maybe need to pop to bigger town for a couple of hours for a makeup lesson then back by lunchtime for an afternoon of catching up on the cleaning I've put off all week! Also some asparagus preserving to start

fedupandskint

Dragged myself out for a run first thing this morning - however very pleased I did!

Had a make up colour session which went well and is nice to wear some again now my skin is practically settled for good now.

Diet not too bad today - felt in the need of some treats so will aim to come in around 2000 instead of 1200kcals. Also will be running a long run tomorrow to even it out, take Mr Dog for a long walk this afternoon after done a bit of cleaning first.

Some washing drying now on the line, ready to chuck some more in then clean a couple of rooms put 2 new pictures up and thats about it for now!
