A whirlwind of activity

So much has happened since I last blogged. I lost another kilo and 1.5cm off my waist. My diet has basically bombed this week so I am hoping to not have put anything on. I did though fit back into an old pair of jeans, and I've decided to toss my other ones that keep falling down into the poor bin as soon as they are out of the wash.

I finally got to see my neice. She is cute and cries a lot. Trying to get to see her was a huge ordeal and I've been coping some grief about it all, but I'm not going to go there and share. Family. ::sigh::

TJ enrolled in a course for her confirmation last night. She has a 4 week course and then in July she will be confirmed by the Bishop. We have to find her a Patron Saint. I've been searching for a female Patron Saint of Dance, but there just doesn't seem to be one. So hopefully I can find her a saint that hasn't been hung,drawn and quartered. Those 1500's must've been an awful period of time.

There is dance eisteddfod's coming up so I've been sewing costumes and have a lot of sequining to do. My business is a little quiet, but after putting all these weeks of effort in, for little result I can really see that my family needs me. They need Mum. BMW needs help with his schoolwork. Nath needs help learning to write and what all the letters of the alphabet are. TJ just needs me. Some girl time. I so want to have a close relationship with her. I don't want to be so busy that I don't see her needs or help her when she needs it. And my house is a little tidier which always makes me feel better.

I baked this morning - cinnamon bun. And this week I've made chicken and pesto pies (yum) apple pie, and chicken and veg soup from scratch. It even tasted good. I've been a whirlwind of activity. Like I am nesting - just not preggers! Hopefully I can get some more pages finished in my album.

Later dudes and dudettes.

Just no luck

do you ever feel that you just don't get a break? I don't mean you're busy, I mean luck never goes your way. My upline deactivated. Yah me. So she sends her customers a letter saying she's deactivated and gives me their info to contact them. I gave her a heap of business cards to give to them. So I start contacting them. Oh I met 'leanne' at the markets and I'm going to go through her now. But can you send me a catalogue? Well no, not if you're going to buy through someone else. I guess she never bothered adding the business cards. Actually on confirmation, she never told them I would be looking after them.
Sometimes I just think maybe they're right. Maybe I should give up this 'silly thing I do' and get a 'real' job.

Diet update

I promised to update you as I weighed in each week. Unbelievable that I made a week, but I did.

I lost 3kg and 3cm from my waist (although I'm pretty confident that I was bloated last week, but hey I'll take the 3cm).

So back to eating more rabbitt food.

Later!
