Monday 15th June 2009 - 103.2 kg


My Favourite girl in the whole entire world.....



Just a small loss this week...

Last week: 103.5 kg
This week: 103.2 kg
This weeks loss: 300gm
Total Loss: 37.4 kg

Seems to be that I have a couple of good weeks, then a couple of slower weeks... I can live with that!
Although it seems that it is taking FOREVER to get under the 100 mark!

The weekend was a busy one... we FINALLY got the garage cleaned out! YAY!
Took most of Saturday, but we got there and that is the main point... lol
Had a pile of stuff to take to the Salvation Army today, another pile to list on TradeMe, and there is a pile there to be sorted out as well.... Maybe next weekend....
I had so much to say before, and now I can't think of anything!!!!!
I finished the Roman Blind for the kitchen window on Saturday, and already we can notice the temperature difference in the night ...
FANTASTIC!
I was quoted $185 to make the thing, and an extra $30 to install it, plus I had to buy the fabric.
BUGGER THAT!!!
So I made the bloody thing myself for a total cost of $76 INCLUDING the fabric!
I ROCK!!!

Oh yeah........ after cleaning out the garage, I came across a box of stuff that had some really old clothes in it... I am talking about clothes that I got off my Grandmother before she moved in to the rest home.

Anyway, there was a pure wool long winter coat in the box, and I remember getting it from her and thinking that I would never fit it!!

Well, I am please to say that I tried it on and IT FITS!!!!!

So........ I gave it a gentle wash, and it is now drying on the airing rack in front of the heat pump (wonderful thing that bloody heatpump!!!!!) and I can't wait until i can wear it!!!

It is heavy and thick and super warm and just plain gorgeous!!!

I will have to take a photo of it once it is dried..... BEAUTIFUL!!!

Well, I think it is anyway :)

The trip to Christchurch on Friday was uneventful... all went smoothly, and I had HEAPS of room in the plane seat! I spent the first 5 or 10 minutes just crossing and uncrossing my legs - just cos I COULD!! Too funny!!!! The flight back was packed, and instead of freaking out about it, I just sat there and enjoyed the flight! And...... the guy who sat next to me didn't look totally mortified at having to sit next to me - the fat chick! hahahahahahahahaha....

Righto - Bedtime.......... I'm knackered!!!!
