Quickie

Hey all,

Super busy at work but wanted to drop a quick line to say thanks for the letting me have my self indulgent winge last week! Talk about PMS!! I was a cranky mo-fo till Saturday! Thanks also to my newbie commenters – hope you stick around. I’m always on the lookout for new blogs to read myself. Also, didn’t realise leaving comments from blogger to wordpress was an issue but I probably should have guessed because it’s the same for me! It sometimes takes me 5 or 6 goes to get my open ID verified and then my comment posted! It shouldn’t be that hard should it! Thanks all for perservering!

And guess what – I got to go to that Tapas restaurant TWICE! It turns out they have tables outside where we could sit with the dogs so we ended up eating there for lunch Saturday and Sunday. Highly recommend it and you don’t have to have tapas, they have a normal menu too.

Anyhoo, these reports aren’t going to run themselves – best be off!

Hopefully will have time to catch up on everyone’s blogs on Friday.

PS – Tight as a fish’s asshole yesterday and ended up vomitting (not even PBing) everything I ate. On fluids today.

Week 2 Challenge Recap

Grrrrr… more grrrrr…. yet more grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Have put on 200g this week. I’m so disappointed but only have myself to blame. Have stayed away from icecream since the choc top and have exercised 5 times this week. I have been drinking RIDICULOUS amounts of water. At least 2L a day, sometimes 3-4L! However, it was GB’s birthday on Friday. Went out for dinner, had cocktails, wine, dessert… Then Saturday had lunch with his folks (another cocktail, more wine)… Saturday afternoon – caught up with his mates at the Balmoral (more wine plus wedges!). Sunday I surprised him with lunch at Millbrook Winery with all our friends. Great food (fattiest thing I probably could have chosen – Duck!… MORE WINE!!! (Seriously, their wine is bloody awesome!). Anyway, I’m sure you can sense a theme there! Then I ate my body weight in mars bar & chocolate fudge slice, cheesecake on Tuesday after one of my receptionists retired. Come to think of it I was lucky to get away with only putting on 200g! 

I’m also due for TTOM in a few days, so perhaps could be retaining. It sure does explain my mood lately! I’m seriously grumpy. We’re off to Bunbury this weekend for a triathlon so the boys can have a trial run before the Ironman in December. We’re camping – which I don’t mind normally but it’s going to be farking freezing. Plus the boys get together and become obnoxious annoying drunks, the only other partner going is pretty much exactly the same (She spent 4 hrs of an engagement party sitting in the toilet), and I just don’t have anything to talk to her about, you know? Tried to convince the other partner to go but she has things on this weekend so couldn’t. So the only thing getting me through spending a weekend in Bunbury (no offence Bunbury people!) is that I’d planned for us to all go to Casella’s Tapas which has a pretty good rep for dinner tonight. But GB just pointed out that we can’t do that now coz we’re all taking our dogs and can’t leave them unattended at the caravan park. So I have fully cracked the shits. Not that I didn’t know about the dogs, but I hadn’t put two and two together on it.

And you know what else is pissing me off? You people!!! Leave a farking comment every once in a while!!! I’m such a whiny bitch right now! Must try to get out of my mood. Sorry for the outburst, I just wonder if anyone gets anything out of my rambles besides the 3 people who regularly comment and now I’ve probably alienated everyone else anyway!!! I guess I really do this for my own purpose, sort of a journal of sorts anyway, but being a fatty – I do require positive reinforcement. Even if you want to tell me “snap out of it you whiny ho-bag!”

Wedding stuff is starting to gear up. We’re working on our invites wording etc and hope to have them out early January. We were going with the minimilist look at the reception being that it’s a cocktail party and I didn’t see the point but then I started thinking how it wouldn’t look special blah blah blah so now looking at hiring chair covers for the few tables that will be scattered around plus possibly those high bar tables. Looked at ottomans and benches but far too expeno to hire. I’m stressing about money as it is!!

Anyhoo, I’m going to take my mood and emerse it into reading job applications for our reception position…

Hope all are well,

Em
