Better half of 2014 - all about me

Definitely stay where you are if you can, unless it's making you ill or you find something that makes you want to go (you'll know when you find it).

Sounds like it's all coming together.

So, work has been ok this week. Quiet though which I do find stressful but have to remember, they have trouble keeping good people and they like me. They also do need someone reliable and personable to take over the old chaps clients when he retires so even if a bad year fees wise they won't get rid of me

Took today off though as figured didn't really have any work and fancied a bit of a rest. So have worked out with trainer now thinking must do some cleaning (though can't be bothered).

Been fairly good MSE wise this month so will have a little extra to put away though could always do better on meal planning and wastage (going to try harder next month)

Hope you're having a good weekend Lula, how's the training going, and how're things with you and your boy? X

Hey MC. Training not bad. I've got to do 8-9 miles today so just had some toast to fuel up so will go in a couple of hours when that's digested. Race is only 4 weeks away and I'm not really ready if honest! Things with boy are good though he's now away on holiday until next Sat. Missing him more than I thought!

Am pretty petrified (given past experience) it's all gonna go t1ts up though!

So, I am no longer entering the race - went out with every intention of running the needed training distance today but for some reason my calves are !!!!!!ed and I only managed 3.5 miles. I've simply bitten off more than I can chew so am going to scale back my target and go for a 10k at Easter instead

Missing the boy terribly. Just hope he's a good one and doesn't cheat. I don't think he will. But I have fallen for him. Big time. And it scares the !!!! out of me

I ran a bit last year, never really got above 10/15k, I'm def not a natural runner. My running buddy was much more of a natural, and is doing a half marathon soon. Part of me wishes I kept it up, but I simply don't enjoy it enough. 10k for Easter sounds reasonable, see how you go and you could always enter another after that. Ive done 2 classes this morning, really enjoyed it, worked hard, sweated lots and feel good!

Ahhhhh I'm sure he's being good, sounds like he's really into you. Have you heard from him whilst he's been away?

lulabelle

Yeah, I'm not sure I'm a natural runner either!

Yeah, he's messaged me a fair bit when he is in wifi zone and to be fair, probably about as much as usual when he's here! I'm pretty certain he's a good egg - just past experience that makes me scared rather than anything he's done. To be honest, he's not put a toe wrong yet but in a genuine way if you know what I mean, rather than an overly trying way

He sounds like a keeper - its hard not to let past experience taint things, but equally it shouldn't spoil a good thing. Trust your gut instinct, and your friends and I'm sure you'll be fine x

I'm being an idiot. Got all snippy with the boy on messages tonight cos he's not said he's missing me. It's because of my insecurities, particularly after the last one. He doesn't deserve that, he's done nothing wrong. He's on holiday with a big group and can't spend all his time messaging me. I'm an idiot. And we've just booked a holiday which he wouldn't have agreed to if he wasn't into this.

I need a distraction whilst he's away, problem is, all my mates are busy. Distracted myself last night by going to bed at 715. Hasn't worked tonight. Only really have tomoz and thurs nights to get through as out Friday for drinks/dinner with friends

Hey Lula, how's things? Is your boy home yet? Hope you had a nice weekend x
