    Every year I say the same thing, this is my favourite time of year! September is my favourite month (with the exception of December) because everything happens now as the world turns to winter. 🙂 I am off on holiday soon, too. I’m hoping for a lot of sea, sand, sun and shutting off everything…

    My treadmill is gonna be my new best friend (again). After last night’s hour I felt much better and today I do feel much improved. Let’s hope my throat decides to stop causing me grief very soon! I did C25K W1D2 last night and then straight into 30 minutes of incline intervals. My treadmill doesn’t…

    That’s me! I am so unbelievably-can’t-even-put-into-words excited about going on holiday Thursday. I haven’t had any (substantial) time off work since New Year’s so a break is more than needed, especially after the insane 3 months I’ve had. It feels like I haven’t looked up from my monitors at work in absolute ages, and that’s…

    I finally managed to buy a food processor today!! I am so incredibly excited to be able to process food. 🙂 Namely, make almond butter and the like. One for the con list of living outside of the US, things like that are not available so I’ve got to make my own. But that’s okay…

    It’s back to work for me tomorrow. While I’m looking forward to it, I’m also not. I do enjoy not working! 🙂 But we have to work in order to enjoy our time off more? I’m all ready and packed for Belfast and that in itself has tired me out! Getting up tomorrow will be…

    Oooh, it’s the first Wednesday of 2011! I mentioned before that I weighed myself finally on Saturday. Well when I weighed on Saturday I was 221.2 lbs. Not a great start to the year by any means, but I’ve been sick for 3 weeks and done nothing but lay down and drive myself crazy in…

    Day 1 of my 4 days off this week went well. While I don’t think I completed anything yesterday it was a good day all around. I was up early waiting for a package which finally turned up at half 11. I got this dress from asos.com: I love it. 🙂 I watched a lot…

    One of the wonderful perks of living outside of the US is that today is a holiday! Over in England we aren’t robbed of our New Year’s Day (or Christmas Day) holiday just because it’s on a weekend! <3 So, 3 days into the New Year and I have to say nothing feels new yet.…
