What a week it has been. One of my daughters turned 20 on the 21st of this month, she wanted to go out for dinner and then go to the movies for her birthday. We went and watched snow white and the huntsman. I had no soft drink and no popcorn. It’s one of my other daughters 21st on the 26th of this month and we had her birthday party last night, we went out for dinner and then to a tavern for a few drinks, she then followed on to a few night clubs with her friends. I have been out shopping twice this week and I think that is exercise itself lol. My 20 year old has just brought her first car and is very excited she can pick it up on Wednesday. She goes for her licence on Tuesday and my other daughter go’s for her licence on Thursday. Today it is a girlfriend’s son first birthday and we are going to the park to have a BBQ. I will try and pop in tonight and update if not I will be on tomorrow.

[Rhonda]

Just a little note for sharrelle.... how are you doing with your fruit?

[admin]

The silence is deafening!....so that must mean not good. I have a punnet of strawberries now growing furry stuff in the fridge and the bananas I bought last week turned black - but I made a banana cake out of them last night -

Going to the supermarket later to pick up dinner, may be a steak sandwich, so I will get some manderines I think and give that a go.

What my intentions for the strawberries were to make a drink out of them but I stuck them in a place where I couldn't see them so I forgot about them.

Lets see how I do over the next day or two.

Thanks for thinking of me....

[Rhonda]

Oh my gosh what a day. So I get a phone call ....youngest daughter says she passed the driving test.... excitement +
Get another call ....didn’t get her licence because they didn’t get the right paper work..... run around run around run around get everything she needs drop it off to them then wait for a phone call to see if they will let her pass through.... 2 hours later ok you can come and pick up your licence...wow thought the test was going to be the hard part lol. They both also got approved for their loan to get a car so they pick up their cars 3pm Thursday. Elder daughter got a promotion and a raise at work plus it was her 21st so happy kids stressed out mum lol.

Sorry to say I did not get to the gym today

Hmmmm Sharrelle keeping up the penicillin supplies i see ... looks like I will have to keep poking at you

[Rhonda]

Woke up at 2.30 am this morning and couldn’t go back to sleep until 5.30 so I had my breakfast at 3.30am, I think it’s going to be one of those days. I’m off to the museum today; I am looking forward to checking out the photographic art. I hope everyone has a wonderful day, take care of yourself and I will catch up with you when I get home.

[Rhonda]

I just want to sleeeeeppppp I am so tired but I don’t want to go to bed too early or I will get up at 3 again. I had a really good day. First of all we went to the museum of modern art.... I have decided that modern “art” is sooooo not for me. I cracked up laughing so bad . I don’t understand how a grown woman shuffling around pieces of cardboard is art... I know I know it’s all in the interpretation --- But seriously --- anyway we also seen some of the most beautiful paintings / drawings, they were amazing. I did really well with my food and I went to the gym so all in all a pretty good day.

You are sitting on my shoulders when I go to the supermarket. I picked up mandarins and 2 bananas. I have just eaten 1 mandarin for morning tea as I couldn't log here without doing it. So you are having a positive influence. I am meeting someone for lunch today so I will have the banana for arvo tea (I hope).

Will report in when I have eaten the banana......

Did not have my banana this arvo as my lunch is still in my stomach!
I walked a couple of k's and on the way back I picked up 2 more mandarins and 2 apples, so all the fruit can sit on the table and hopefully not rot. I might have an apple for tea as it is light.

[Sharrelle]

Hey Rhonda,
This morning I thought to myself I wanted to be proactive rather than reactive so I ate an apple and a mandarin. Fruit today I can tick off, I don't eat vegs on Friday night so that is out today. Upping the anti to 2 pieces of fruit a day. I love to read what others are eating as that inspires me or shames me along.
Weekends are hard but that should be no excuse ah.
