• Life After The Flu

    I’m finally totally back at work now. I feel like my year is only just starting this week, what with being on holiday and then being sick. Because I was so sick for so long I’m taking some advice I found about working out post-sickness and only doing every other day and no high intensity…

  • What a Fun Week…

    For the past 7 days I’ve been in bed. Today was the first time I’d gone outside since last Saturday. This is all due to the evil, evil flu that Hubby is convinced we brought back with us from the States. We probably did to be fair. That seems more convincing when my dad was…

  • My new necklace & earrings

    I got this necklace & the earrings from my Aunt for Christmas. I love this necklace! I’ll add a close up of it later, it’s so pretty. <3

  • “It hurts remembering how it felt to shut down”

  • Snowed In

    Today was my first day back at work and due to the snow that has frozen into ice over night, I’m working from home! Hubby is too and it’s always funny when he claims I’m disrupting him when I’m sitting here not making any sounds other than typing and clicking! Working from home or having…

  • Giving Up

    The first monthly challenge of 2010 for me is going to be giving up things. My goal with this challenge is to de-clutter my house, my diet and my life. So here are some things I will be giving up this month: 1. Soda. I drink a lot of water already, but during December (before…

  • Success!

    After we arrived home yesterday Hubby and I pretty much collapsed. I had to have a nap because I couldn’t last until 6pm after being awake since 6am (11am UK time) Monday morning. We ended up ordering Chinese simply because we couldn’t have worked the oven or stove even if we had wanted to. Oh,…
