Sweet Sunday

I think we had thunder during the night, either we did or I could have been dreaming.  Weather has really changed in the last few days and we've had pretty dark grey clouds, high winds and light rain.  I won a tenner on the lottery this week!  Not quite enough to get me to you but enough to reimburse the magazine splurge of the past week at least. 

Well, I did around one third of the kitchen yesterday and all of the bathroom, I'll be heading home to finish the kitchen, cut the front grass, then make veggie chili for next week and will probably make much mess in the process.

The rain began at 10.30am yesterday and continued throughout the day and night although it's looking like it's trying to be brighter today.

No workout for me this morning, I woke up feeling wiped out and so opted for an extra 30 minutes in bed in stead.  I did more TA arms last night so don't feel too guilty.

The Marie Claire, bag yourself a mentor competition is here again.  I applied last year but they were convinced I didn't need one, darn it.  I thought I'd give it another bash this time around, trouble is, these fabulous, successful and brilliant women are of course specialists in their own field.  Me?  I'm Jack of all trades, dipping my toes into creative pools everywhere, e commerce entrepreneur, jewellery designer, wanna be writer.  Who do I pitch to?  I would love five minutes with each of them, what a coup that would be.  Nothing to say you can't do it all eventually but aiming for one in the mentoring stakes may help.  Still going to Uni, this is just to satisfy my creative itch.

Brown Eyed Girl has just come on, love that song.

Indulged in a Muller Light yogurt "inspired by...New York Cheesecake."  Could there be anything more heavenly and indulgent?  All of the taste with none of the guilt.  Could there be anything better in all the chilled aisles in all the world I asked myself.  The answer apparently is yes, there has to be.  It was vile and I doubt that the creator or giver of the green light has ever tasted cheesecake let alone New York Cheesecake, what a disappointment.

Watched the penultimate episode of The Biggest Loser USA Couples, it's down to the final four and I can't wait to find out who has won.  One of the contestants I picked in week one, just because he was so sweet and seemed so broken, has made it to the final four, I really want him to win.  The transformations in these individuals has been amazing.  The production company really should manufacture short DVDs of each of the final four's transformations, trials and tribulations.  Each of their stories are so motivational, they would sell like low fat hot cakes.  One of the largest contestants, the largest man ever to enter the ranch, began at 37.5 stone six months ago, yesterday, I watched him complete a marathon, incredible.

I have a whole week in work coming up, how will I cope?!  The early mornings alone will probably finish me off.  Did I tell you how weird it is at the moment, going to work in daylight? 

No Bondi Boys again this afternoon, so I may actually get something done.  Take care of you as well as everyone else.  I will be back soon.
