Kitchen window quilt
Finally I have managed to spend a crapload of time working on some of my quilting projects that I’ve had on the go for a while now. I admit that I pretty much put everything else on the backburner to get this quilt finished, but I just couldn’t stand seeing it lying around any longer. I got some design work knocked off yesterday, so today I was determined to concentrate on getting the binding sewn on. That was all it needed to be finished off. But hand sewing for me, is one very...

Today’s daily food intake… I feel so tired and zonked tonight, but I really have no reason to be. I was all geared up for swimming tonight, which was going to be followed by an aquaerobics class at the same place with Miss A. I left work, bag all packed and ready, rocked up to the pool to be faced with a sign saying that the pool was “unfortunately closed today due to unforseen circumstances and will re-open at 7am on Wednesday”.

I was going so well with the 12wbt program, but last week was definitely a slip up. I knew that today’s weigh in wasn’t going to be great, I expected a little weight gain, but I gained a whole kilo. I really hadn’t thought I’d done quite THAT badly, but apparently I had. So there was major disappointment to myself this morning when I looked at the scales and saw that the number had jumped right up.

Not a lot to report from today, I’m still home from work sick with a flu. However, I’m happy to report, that while I haven’t done any exercise (which I really am putting down to the fact that it’s hard to get any air into my lungs due to the cold) I have been eating a lot healthier again today. I’m not sure if that’s because I’m sick and just not really hungry or because I’m finally getting back on track. I like to think it’s because...
