    4 weeks post op already!

    My lack of activity over the last month made it seem like it has dragged on but in reality I’m already two thirds of the way through my 6 weeks of recovery! My follow up appointment is this week so I’m hoping for good news on the cancer front and also good news on when…

  • Error: Motivation not found

    Moving is stressful, I know this. I didn’t expect this time to be quite as stressful as it has been, though. It’s been almost as bad as my move from the US to the UK. The differences are marginal at best. The last one, into our rental, was easy peasy. I guess I expected the…

  • Changing engines in flight

    If I need motivation or inspiration my first port of call is usually Tumblr. It’s like a library of whatever you need right there. It doesn’t matter what I’m trying to find or inspire myself to do, you can find it there. I’ve been using it a lot lately, as a much needed source of…

  • No More

    Tonight I learned something. Had a revelation of sorts. I sometimes log my whole day of food and exercise at My Fitness Pal before the day is over, just to see what the day will look like overall. I’m probably not the only one that does this, but I find that it sometimes helps motivate…

  • A Good Day

    It feels like more and more often I’m having meh days, bad days or just plain ol’ horrible days. Over the past week I’ve felt like I have gotten myself back and you know what? I’ve missed me!! I enjoyed today. Yeah, I was at work and that kinda sucks, but overall I had an…

  • 2011 Finale

    Happy New Year’s Eve! I love this time of year and looking forward to what the next year will bring. I’m making a huge pot of spaghetti for tonight, the sauce has been on since this morning and is in the slow cooker bubbling away. Spaghetti is one of my favourite foods, but only if…

  • Motivation.

    Last week was tough in a lot of ways. I’m sure the previous posts shows some of that. I assure you it’s not all doom and gloom, I had a brilliant weekend with one of my besties. 🙂 I really struggled to get back into the swing of things last week and now I feel…

  • Great News

    My tent arrived today!! I’ve started purchasing things for V Festival in August and seeing as I’ve never been camping or owned a tent or anything like that I’m having to buy everything. I got this one: I haven’t put it up yet, but that’s a job for tomorrow. I’m waiting for my rucksack and…

  • Wednesday What?!

    Today is Wednesday. I totally haven’t weighed myself. Bad oceanchica! Truth is, I completely forgot. I keep having to remind myself what day it is, because honestly, I totally have no clue. This week is just strange. I’m kind of avoiding the scale this week. I’m still fighting this darn cold, I’m nearly 100% but…
