An Interesting Week...

Hi all. I've decided that Tuesday will be blog day, so here I am. Charlie is asleep, and it's freezing! The sun doesn't get to the lounge until after lunch so it's cold!!! But it's a gorgeous day and we're hoping to take Charlie to the playground later when it's a bit warmer.

So this week has been pretty good, had a few hiccups in the eating department though...I may have over-eaten at my mother-in-laws this weekend (but not by much) and I had a coconut and lemon slice from muffin break on Sunday...BUT, the good news is, I've actually earned a whole lot of exercise points from netball training and the big tournament that we had on Saturday, so I should be ok for my week 9 weigh in tomorrow...which would be great because so far I've lost a grand total of 11kgs!!!! Score!! Mind you, it's not like it's falling off or anything, I've been working hard for that, but I have so much more energy...so much that I actually look forward to exercising! And believe me, that never used to happen. I used to get tired just walking up one flight of stairs!

Also, some rather exciting news has just come up. A couple of weeks ago we recieved a wedding invitation to my cousins' wedding in Canada, which is in May. I thought that was a really nice thought, but I pretty much gave up the idea of going for dead. I mean, who has a spare $10,000 to get over there, what with the recession and all?? Anyway, my mum's partner Paul just inherited some money from his Dad's estate, and Mum had borrowed some money to build a sleepout in the big garage next to her house, so Paul suggested that he pay for the renovations and Mum uses the money to take us all over to Canada! And so it looks like that's what we'll be doing in under 8 weeks! Mike and Charlie and I, plus my Mum and my brother will all be going for 2 and a half weeks, and I can't wait. Except, that means that there might be the possibility of a small weight gain, but I'm hoping that I'm able to control some of what goes on there. Anyway, I'm excited, I haven't seen my family in so long!

And that's about it for this week. Hope you're all doing well.
