'Mon the Goats!

From yesterday I am climbing back on the healthy eating, healthy living wagon. I'm tired of bumming around my house with no motivation to get up in the morning. Tired of rolling out of bed at 11am at skipping right over breakfast cause it is too close to lunch and even then just eating cheese on white toast. 

So, as of yesterday I be eating sensible foods again. I lost 10 kg in the last 4 months and I am not going back on that now. So, tomorrow I start work and have a reason to get out of bed. Hopefully soon enough I will have a roadworthy car and then I can get myself a swimming pool membership and take things from there. 

Yesterday I made friends with the Wii Fit again after 105 days away and I intend to get myself back on that for 30 minutes in just a moment. :)

Feels like coming home

Lack of posts can only be due to my being utterly busy.

I left Uni on Sunday morning, just after 11am I believe and drove all the way home in my amazing hire car! Yeah, as the insurance company is still dealing with the fall out of the rear end shunt the car was in involved in three weeks ago I had to hire a car to go home. Eventually, after much searching, I got a good enough deal with Europcar and hired me a Hyundai i10. Only, when I arrived at the garage they presented me with a Skoda Fabia. Bit of a difference there, the i10 being a 1.2ltr and the Fabia being a 1.9ltr TDI. But it was a learning curve and a very comfortable drive, it must be said. 

Now there is an insane amount of drama kicking off as to what happens with the car since every man and his brother thinks they have a right to get involved when really, it is my car and I should be able to do what I want with it. Surely?  Such a complicated bundle of stress. 

I'm slowly approaching the end of my first week with Evra and other than it looking unsightly we seem to be getting along quite well. I think I shall be placing it in a less obvious place next time, but for the first week I wanted to be able to keep my eye on it. I really didn't trust it to stick through a whole week of washing and sweating. But somehow, almost miraculously it has. It started lifting on one edge the other day but it stuck back down again with a little bit of pressure so everything is good there. I know a week isn't really long enough to determine if I'm going to have any side effects but so far so good. And definitely better for me than having to remember to take the pill. 

Thursday I am going to see Matt, which is going to be utterly awesome. Getting into Bristol on our 19 month anniversary, which is utterly terrifying and also amazing at the same time. :) 

Now however I am going to bed because it is late and I need to get up in the morning to go car shopping. Fantastic.
