Day 17 - Friday (finally!)

Awful, awful night last night - head was pounding all evening & my eyes were hurting. Really didn't feel like eating but took some more paracetamol, had my mushroom poppadoms and then took a hot chocolate to bed. Wasn't a good night, kept tossing & turning & just couldn't get comfortable. Woke up finally at 7 this morning absolutely shattered, but the headache had gone finally! No idea if it was the diet or just me being under the weather though - have had a bit of a sore throat and been very hot and cold for a few days, so who knows!

Made myself go on the running machine this morning though, and actually felt much better for it. Was half-way through the shower when the man arrived to deliver my new keyboard - answered the door dripping wet with wild wet hair and hid behind the door (god knows what he thought!!) & spent the next hour trying to get the bloomin' thing to work with my 2 pcs. Grr Grr...

Tried something different for breakfast this morning and made raspberry pancakes (so, ok, they're exactly the same as poppadoms just it sounds better if I convince myself they're pancakes!) - added a teaspoon of the fruits of the forest flavouring to the rest of the mix as the first one didn't taste too good - definitely need to buy some sweeteners!

Worked my way steadily through my water again, stopped for a late lunch at 2pm for about 20 mins (enough time to make mushroom poppadoms!). Day has really whizzed by (always a bonus on a Friday). Also feeling pleased with myself as I finally got round to sorting my hair trial for the wedding, booked a haircut for next week & tried to get in touch with the local vicar about the banns. Also realised I'd missed sorting the wedding rings off of my list (arg!) so was hastily added & we've agreed to go next weekend to the Jewellery Quarter, yay! :-)

Right, I'm off to watch some of Comic Relief and pout at h2b having his well-earned beer, and just be content with feeling morally superior by not succumbing to the temptation to drink (so, ok, it's killing me, Friday nights are by far the worst!). Looking forward to the weekend down in Portsmouth too - we're driving down tomorrow morning & I can't wait to see everyone, it's been ages since we all last got together!

Have a great weekend everyone ;-)

Sorry you had such a bad evening and night - hope it get better soon. You sound like you've got a busy time coming up with weekends away and all the wedding stuff - at least you won;t have to worry about shopping, cooking, eating and clearing up!!

When is the wedding? How much do you hope to lose before the big day? If you have your dress, have you allowed for shrinkage?? Sorry to be nosy but weddings are great aren't they?

Keep it up chuck, Lesley x

Notice you haven't posted for a couple of days. Hope that's because you're having a fantastic weekend and not because the awful pounding headache has progressed to something worse?

Keep it up, it'll get better soon.
