On Rainy Sundays and Female Veeps…

Another rainy Sunday here in Belfast.  Slept badly so went back to sleep once Simon got up.  Now working up the motivation to do some tidying. So…Sarah Palin…she’s a woman.  Yup.  She sure is.  But man is she one scary woman to possibly be VP.  Anti-abortion, anti-gay rights, pro-guns.  No national polictical experience.  Personally, I [...]

Things That Please Me…

I am pleased that the windows in our new building have been installed and the people doing the fit out have some of them open to air it out.  Makes it looked like a real building, at last. I am pleased that I got to have a lovely scone this morning as our CEO and [...]

Was Feeling Like Crap Yesterday

Hence, no update.  Still feeling like crap.  I have 47 minutes to decide if I am going to make it into work.  I probably will. Sometimes I wish I didn’t sleep well ever.  I slept great on Friday night and now it makes not sleeping well harder.  Better to never sleep well, I guess. I [...]

Stage Two Complete…

Today I got my hair coloured.  I haven’t had this done in about 3 years.  Maybe 4. Not the best picture of me ever, but if you look close at the top, you can see the red low lights.  And no more gray! So, Stage One was a dress.  Complete.  Stage Two, my hair. Complete. [...]

It Is Important To Remember

when going to the Farmer’s Market, to look around before purchase.  Why? Because at one fruit stand peaches were 4 for £1.  At another, 5 for £1.  I bought the 5! I also bought: – 2 tuna steaks to be seared and smothered in a combination of mayo and mustard 3 locally grown potatoes (they [...]

That Felt Good

Yes, I am actually enjoying my exercise.  Don’t tell my mother, she’ll only say ‘told you so.’ I haven’t recieved my next Yoga video from Love Film yet (I am still looking for the ‘perfect’ one) so instead I did the abs & back and the stretchy cool down parts of my aerobics vid.  Felt [...]

As Noted In My LiveJournal

Jar of passata + tile floor + bare feet = badness. Luckily I only got a little nick in the side of my foot when the jar smashed last night.  And Simon was, as always, my Knight In Shining Armour, bringing me the broom and some shoes and helping me clean up the mess. In [...]

Up at 2:30 again

Ug. But I just did Yoga so I feel okay.  Tired, but not totally wrecked.  That will come about 2:00pm today. I did 45 minutes of Aerobics last night, almost my entire Aerobics Oz Style Fat Burning Workout.  I didn’t do the back and tummy bit, as I ran out of time.  The 45 minutes [...]
