  • Improvements

    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…

  • You Gotta Be Cruel To Be Kind

    Oh my gosh, I’m a mess! Our holiday was great, some much needed time away was just what we needed. We’ve been back a week now and I am always astonished when one day is all it takes to feel just as tired and stressed as you were before your time off. Why is it…

  • Frustration, party of one?

    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…

  • New Toys!

    I finally managed to buy a food processor today!! I am so incredibly excited to be able to process food. πŸ™‚ 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…

  • Back to the Grind

    It’s back to work for me tomorrow. While I’m looking forward to it, I’m also not. I do enjoy not working! πŸ™‚ 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…

  • Weekend Roundup

    My week off work has gone well. I got in lots of rest and got a few things on my list taken care of: Hang up the curtains in the lounge – doing this tomorrow Hang up the pictures in the hall – doing this tomorrow Conjure up an Inspiration Board (a-laΒ Fitnessista style) – I’ve…

  • Sweet Potato FTW

    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. πŸ™‚ I watched a lot…

  • Bank Holiday FTW!

    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.…

  • The Most Wonderful Time of the Year!

    That’s right, folks! It’s December!! This is my favourite month. Always has been, always will be. It’s the month of presents (for me!) since it’s my birthday and Christmas this month. We’ve had loads of snow/ice already as well, which makes it so much more wonderful. I seem to be in the minority of people…
