    Hi Shoe Gal, what are you reading on your kindle at the moment? I am trying to ban myself from buying anymore books at the moment of either the paper or electronic form until I have shifted some of the ones that I already have - I do think I have a bit of an addition though :o

    Forgive me but what does "TM" mean?

    Will subscribe, I too am having a re-evaluation of life and reinvention of the diary after a rather large bump back down to reality - hey ho, onwards and upwards.

    Have just read the Rose Petal Beach by Dorothy Koomson - fab!

    TM is 'the man' from a previous diary!

    Very sad day at a funeral

    On a brighter note, my Amazon voucher from Nectar arrived so I can top up my Kindle for the weekend, and I've lost 2lbs this week :j

    Off for a run soon to clear my head

    Just been for a run but really struggled today :( I think it may be because it's so cold so am thinking about gym membership again as pay-as-you go is working out really expensive.

    I think the only Dorothy Koomson book I've read was The Icecream Girls - was good, I read it on the way back from hols and annoyed DS by being so engrossed :D

    My fitness is dreadful at the moment. It doesn't help that I am still holding onto my Christmas weight so if I do exercise it hurts my hip and my knee :o

    What did you get with your Amazon voucher in the end?
    Just keep swimming!
