Ho hum

Well time flies! Had my 12 days off, just finished my 3rd day of eight on the trot back in. We have a new spy in the cab now,called Eco driver. I can now drive within the speed limit, reading the road well ahead,whilst giving the passengers a lovely gentle ride. I have put in for promotion at work too, but I have been told there are many applicants for a few positions, que sera :-) It would be weird going into middle management again at nearly 50! I am starting to think about dieting again, there is an amazing weight watchers advert on at the moment,featuring a guy for a change. My work pants have started to hurt me again towards the end of my shift, always a bad sign! We are off to a wedding reception tomorrow, a very sad one, for a young couple we met a few years ago. He has an inoperable brain tumour, with little time left. It sure does put into perspective life's other troubles. Martin the eldest is now in Chicago, back in November or maybe never ! My other eldest son, Carl leaves for Canada on the 15th of May, for ever ! I am also very pleased to hear my friend Sean who worked on nights with me at P&R has done his last night shift last night, and starts a new job on Monday! Oh well, there you go, head now downloaded !

In free fall

Well, we went out on our bikes and did just over four miles.

Yesterday we had our annual scrotes day out, and was joined by 2 of my grown up sons,including the eldest who emigrates to Canada in six weeks. We won the raffle that you got for singing karaoke twice , so that was four free pints !

Just having hair of the dog now, followed by an Indian :-)

Piston Broke

Well, here we are, April. Heavy night on the Bow last night, and now I feel like shit!

Now I want to quit drinking for the whole month , or maybe 3 months, shoot me now !

Eldest has gone to Chicago, for 6 months or maybe forever ! (I know what I would choose)

Off for a week and a half now, think I will get my bike out again today.

Still Working

Just had three days off,now working until Thurs then off for 12 days. I did 4.5 miles on my bike the other day, and I was knackered, it's funny how your stamina can drain when you don't keep something up. I must get out more on it.

The back garden is coming on, Angie is painting everything ! It's the first day of British summertime here, it's 19.35 and still light !

Our eldest heads off to America on Tuesday again, he has finished his degree now, and will be suprised if he ever returns, I know I wouldn't .

Awol Again

Well, it's 16 days since I last posted. Tut Tut .

Truth is, I am off the wagon again, but only a bit. Been busy working on the back garden, and it is starting to look well.

It has been quite busy here too, Our eldest is about to go back to America, for a year,coaching kids how to play soccer! Personally I think he will settle there, and I can't fault him one little bit.

The person it will bother has her special day today, It's Mothers day here today.

I over indulged massively Friday, paid for it all yesterday,and was in bed for quarter past nine last night.

I have just got up, 6am and I am amazed that the 50 LED butterfly lights I have fitted to my newly built patio fence have been flashing all night. Excellent !

Last time I checked my weight, I hadnot gained any, for as per usual, it's work in progress :-)

The best made plans

Well at work everything was fine, except I had to drink my WW yoghurts as I had forgotten a spoon ! When I got home though, I ate one bag of space raiders and two bags of mini cheddars.

Tea was a healthy keema on pitta, but i am still naughty.

It was a lovley warm day yesterday, and we got a stunning sunset.

Remember me ?

Well it's been 2 weeks since I last blogged :-( Off the rails a bit at the moment, but I am hoping to restart tomorrow, with the new month.

I have been doing some exercise, clearing the back garden ect .

I am now going into seven days solid at work, I'm not off now until next Saturday.

Whilst I am off the rails, one of my old WW buddies who saw I had started SW, and who I advised to join has done so, and she is doing brilliantly, and she has her own SW recipie page on FB, which is excellent too.

I am on an early tomorrow, and when I finish I am going to get some wood to build a new enclosure for our chickens, so that should be a good workout !
