A little update...

Hi Guys and Gals!
Hope that you have missed me as much as I have missed you! (That’s lots and lots, just in case you were wondering!) I cannot believe how quickly this year is going already. I go to Dominican Republic for my sisters wedding in only 5 months! I know that it sounds way off at the moment but time flies and I’m sure that in no time at all Ill be jetting off to lands far away!

A lot has happened this year that I haven’t even mentioned yet including:-

1.) It was my 2 year anniversary with Richard on 9th January. We bought each other little presents and went for a lovely meal last week!)
2.) We had a wedding to go to the other week with friends. They were on the front page in the local paper for having 7 best men! 7!! The greed of it! It was a good night though and I was suitably pished to say the least…However, I found out around bar closing time that I knew someone behind the bar and could have had free drinks all night! D’oh! Still managed to get four out of him though! :-D
3.) Richard and I had baby Lily… ok.. I have mentioned this but the quiet, shy little girl has now transformed in to a super hyperactive mongalatron!!

It’s official. I have stopped going to the gym. It never did much apart from:-

A.) Gave me an excuse to eat more on the nights that I did go.
B.) Give me the right to say on any questionnaires that “gym” was a hobby of mine.
C.) Empty my pocket 40 English pound a month.

Ill be glad to be rid of it... And so will my little fat legs!

The diet has begun for the wedding abroad. I have about 10 pound to lose… this is so I can go away and eat like an animal! Think Ill probably panic around April-ish and scoot myself off to a concentration camp somewhere for a week or three!

I don’t know whether I’ve stopped doing “things” but all of a sudden I seem to have much more surplus money than I did a few months ago. I used to have a little spreadsheet that gave me my spending power a month and I used to make sure that week in, week out, I would spend all that I had allocated on my chosen items... (Example: - 100 pound a month for a new clothing... Even if I was going nowhere, I would buy something just for the hell of it! £50.00 a week for a night out… If I didn’t go out Id blow it on ANYTHING!) But now I have stopped doing it, I am finding myself having a very small amount surplus a month. Not going to complain. It’s great! Just wonder how long it will last! :-)

Me and the sidekick went to Trentham Gardens today to get Lily some treats. Ended up with:-

Pink leather collar (has I love you encrusted in genuine Swarovski crystal!)
Pink lead for when she goes walkies
Pink “little monster” hoodie so she can be a rebel when she a bit bigger... Doesn’t fit yet!
2 cupcakes, a cream roll and an iced gingerbread… Imported from America made in a doggy bakery especially for doggies!!

I was buzzing around the shop like a tasmanian devil while Rich looked on grudgingly… He stopped me when I suggested the bumble bee outfit…

Tut…
