Weight: 17st 8lb
3lb off this week, and each one is undeserved if I'm honest! I was stood on the wiifit with my eyes closed, fingers crossed I had only put on one. So, shock and elation when I was told I've lost three! This is particularly lovely as my weight today is exactly 2st lighter than my heaviest recorded weight. (It is worth remembering that this is heaviest RECORDED; I suspect that I got heavier than that if I'm honest.)
The coming week is also making me feel pretty optimistic. It's half term, so the Lovely Husband and I are on a decorating mission. Shockingly, our bedroom has not been in any way touched since we moved in nearly 6 years ago. The time has come to remedy this! Materials have been purchased (minus a seam roller, but that too shall be obtained) and we are to attempt papering! I'm really looking forward to it; I loved learning the tiling necessary for doing the kitchen and bathroom, so I'm eager to add another skill to my repetoire.
This enthusiasm always gets a lot of raised eyebrows though I don't know why. My job is so often cerebral and physically constrained that I relish the opportunity to stand up straight and stretch my limbs while using a more practical part of my brain. The Lovely Husband and I are celebrating our two year anniversary this week as well, so it feels fitting that we spend the coming seven days in home improvements.
However, please note the throwaway mention of our anniversary. We're heading off to a preview evening of a new menu for a sister restaurant of our favourite place. I have had to accept that this may, for the sake of vital research, involve the ingestion of butter, cream and even, perhaps, chocolate. It's a dirty job but someone's gotta do it!
