Pants are too small!

Today, I feel fat. I think this has to do with the fact that I’m wearing pants that are too small for me.  I need to go shopping as absolutely everything I own for spring/summer is too small. *sigh*

I hurt everywhere, and this is why…

Over the weekend, the BF and I (and two very, very good friends):
-Painted the kitchen walls a fetching blue/grey/silver colour called Sterling (it’s the same colour we have the living/dinning room.
-Took all the cabinets off and washed them (seems easy, but it was pretty gross because really, how often do people remove their kitchen cabinets [...]

A little low today.

“You know I love you, right? That I want to marry you and for us to have children and be together always? That I can’t imagine my life without you?”
This from the BF, trying to console me after (yet another) one of friends gets engaged.
I know all of the above is true, and in many [...]

Sporty and handy!

For my walk today, I brought a change of clothes. I felt properly ’sporty’ (something that I’ve never felt in my whole life).  I feel great, though!  Full of energy and craving water and drinking lots of it.
Maybe there’s something to this exercise malarkey after all!
Last night, the BF and I started the renovations in [...]

Sweaty McNasty

This morning I walked into work; a good 40 minute power walk. Despite the fact that I feel GREAT there is the thing of me being DRENCHED IN SWEAT. Lovely.
I just know the people in the Minister’s office are going to think I’m so hot today.
