A week to go YIPPEE

Well girls it is only a week to we get together. Wow I will ring Janine to check details I'll also email a couple of you with my cell number incase of any changes. My plans are back to what they were. I have spoken to N and she so wants us to visit she has that to look forward to and think about I s wish I could be there for her now but guess being a diversion as her daughter called me is next best. I am so excited about the coming trip and meeting so many of the poeple I have chatted to and have helped me with my journey. My only reason for picking the destinations(except P/N) I have for our trip is to meet you folks. Someone asked me yesterday what was I going to Hamilton for I said to meet 2 friends and Wellington is just the same I have no other plans heehehe except Aqua classes and walking hehehe oh yeah and maybe do a bit of retail thearpy(sp). Ann I am interested in that shop u spoke of have checked out the address and will certainly be calling there.
I still haven't accepted the gain on the scales and have told them i'll be back on Wednesday expecting a different answer, I guess if it is still similar I'll have to give in to the fact I gained. I haven't pigged out or binged on anything as I would have normally hell I would have poilished of a 2 lt container of some rich icecream or (maybe even and ) king size block of chocie couple years ago if scales had told me I had gained that much and I thought different. I did last night however have several infact more than several fruit digestive biscuits. I was disapointed in myself for eating them and as penalty for my bad behaviour I made myself finish the ironing I didn't get finished the other day and I hate standing ironing on a Saturday night make me feel very lonely and alone, but it is done and this morning I got rid of the biscuits and some so prehaps it was a good thing to much information. Gonna get worse. I have always had problems with bowel movements have an appointment with specialist on 23 May to find out why but that is another story. I drink gallons of water, eat loads of fruti and veg and high fibre this and nutty that and sometimes it can be a 5 days between visits to bathroom. I get so uncomfortable and it is agony I can tell you(I know at least one of fello bloggers has similar problems) I try anything suggested and have found a kiwifruit drink called Necta does help (might get some at store this morning might help the scales on Wednesday) anyway where i am going with this. On Friday I drunk no water AT ALL i had a bottle of diet coke at work and realised on sat when my skin felt like i had been sitting under a fan heater for a week and i was dehidrated that i hadn't drunk any water. For tea friday night i have a sandwich just couldn't be bothered so no veges no fruit and no water Friday and guess what saturday morning I went 3 times and today twice...go figure when I eat and drink right I don't go and when I dont I do go. I always was a bit back to front.

Well on Friday was my last day at job I hate and I have no regrets about leaving except the money. Pleased to be finished there it was such a crappy place to work and I never really felt I fitted in or was confident in what I was doing. I didn't know about engineering and mechanical stuff and had no desire to learn. The office side of things was ok but so dirty and dusty. And all week the paddock across the road has had kids and motor cross bike buzzing about so more noise and dust. But finished now yippee.

Yesterday did a bit of yard work not so as I can see where I been cause EVERYTHING is such a mess really need a moth working bee with husband incuded but of course that isnt gonna happen. Everytime i suggest work he has somehere to be. But cut back and dead headed pulled out the troughs of petunias along drive and on deck (that was easy and hardly need any energy for that heheh) Planted some trees so hopefully in a couple f years there will be some shade in garden again. Lost 3 trees over last couple of years for one reason or other so lost the shade and most of my garden is rhododendrons and camilleiaswhich prefer shade. Also planted a flowering cherry so will look pretty in spring out laundry window and a pear tree so can sit in shade of tree crunching on a freshly picked pear...well that is the vision anyrate.

Well best make a move-lovely day so will walk to shop, the long way and make 30mins walk and get some bread for hubby's lunch tomorrow and post some trademe parcels. Will wait for washing machine to finish so can get the sheets online and dry. This afternoon I must finish packing suit case and take up hem on hubbies jeans. I hate packing cause I have to plan days in advance of what I will wear and then I don't know what the weather will be like so have to have warm and cool clothes and the right shoes to go with that and matching knickers to go with that bra...oh it is such a delemia. Then what jewellery will I wear, thank god I don't do the makeup thing as well that would be another case to pack.

May not get back to post again before I leave on Thursday night.
