So tired ... TGIF ...



Boy am I tired. Again I was up last night with DS, again I missed the alarm, but I had an hour and a half sleep in today, which was briliant. DH and DS are both sick with a bad headcolds and stuffed up noses (poor blossums). Of course DH has the "man flu" and we all know that the "man flu" is terminal, right girls? LMAO.

I got up at 6.30am. No, before you ask, I didn't wuss out and skip the treadmill, and let me tell you I walked further than I ever have before. I was supposed to increase my distance today by 1 unit, but I increased by 2 units. Yes folks, you read correctly, TWO UNITS!! It was so hard and I just didn't feel like doing it and when I finally finished a great song came on, so I just kept going. So unlike me!! Maybe i've been taken over by some alien exercising fiend!!

Now I can't go backwards with my distance, so next Tuesday i'll have to increase again (fitting in with every second day). Today's walk means i'm doing 150% of my starting distance and by the end of the week after next I will have doubled my distance, but still walking in nearly the same amount of time. Yay me.

My eating still isn't perfect but i'm getting there and I still think that getting into an exercise routine is more important than my eating right now. It has, after all, been a very very stressful week and there is no end in sight yet to the damn stress.

To all of you Sydney bloggers who are meeting up tomorrow with Linda and Michelle - I am so jealous, I wish I could be there with you all. Just know that i'll be with you in spirit (so yes everyone check the bottom of your wine glasses, I just could be swimming around in there! haha). Have a brilliant time, I can't wait to see the photos and hear all about it.

Hope everyone has a brilliant weekend.

Ciao for now,

Bri

Well, bugger it. I don't think there's any need to write you a war cry, seeing as how you're doing so bloody well on your own. Fine. If you don't need me, I might as well just go and console myself with a block of Lindt and a box of tissues. I know when I'm not wanted. *sniff sniff*

Well done on your walking - you are doing an amazing job - keep it up !!
Hope that DS and DH are feeling better soon.
We had an absolute blast today (well I did and I am sure that everyone else did too !!!) it was just great to meet so many lovely people in person. I really hope you can make it next time.
Take care and enjoy your Sunday !

You have done so well to get up and do it after "one of THOSE nights". And we all know about the man flu, it is a pandemic waiting to happen! God help us if the Maniflu pills don't work. HE HE HE>

By the way, love the skinny malinks! A word my mum used to use.

Mary said...

Good going with the treadmill!! I'll be posting some photos soon and other photos were taken. I wish I took more though. I am always hesitant to pull out my camera. Should get over it hey. I wish you could have come along too but Michelle told us what a special and important night you had on so I hope it went really well :-)
