Part IA, Part UP

UP : Got my JA 8465 wedding dress today, love love love it! It looks amazing and is totally gorgeous.

IA : Doesn't quite do up all the way about 2-3" too small. So I guess I need to lose a few more pounds 2 months to go!

Rock it out but don't kill yourself - your health is more important ;-)
Find a seamstress if needed but don't go all crazy diet lady for 2-3 inches - promise?

IA: My stomach was still all annoyed with me this morning, so I couldn't go into my volunteer job like I had planned.  I really look forward to it when I can do the hands on work, so I'm really disappointed. 

UP: I'm not entirely debilitated like I was yesterday afternoon, so I can get a few things done around the house at least.  Plus, the weather is gorgeous, so I can at least appreciate it by doing some of my volunteer work outside on the laptop, rather than be in a windowless room all day like I would have been. 

UP: Found the boots I wanted online for almost £50 less than I'd been expecting to pay.

IA: My credit card wouldn't go through. Tried my new and old addresses, and it didn't work. Debit card worked, but why does everything bank-related have to be so hard?

No worries about that! I just don't have it in me.
I'm going to pick up a personal training session at the gym once a week and think about getting a fairy goth mother corset to wear under it... bit of a cheat, but who cares?!

UP:  We have a clean fridge!  Even the shelves and drawers have been cleaned out.

IA:  I had to clean it myself.

UP:  I haven't wasted my extra day off. 

UP:  I got an appointment for the foot doctor in June!!!  FINALLY I'm on the path to getting my bunion fixed!!!!

IA: My cat hasn't been eating much lately, just a couple of bits here or there. She's hungry, because she's always begging from us, but wasn't really interested in her (very expensive prescription) food. She's older, so I thought maybe her teeth were bothering her since she had to bite the dry food.

UP: I got some of pouches of (very expensive prescription) wet food and mixed it with the dry and she slurped it down!

IA: The wet food is expensive (90c per pouch), but as long as she'll eat it mixed with the dry food, I think I can stretch it out to one pouch per day.

UP: So happy she's eating again!

UP: Getting a piece of strawberry cheesecake for Mother's Day

IA: I'm supposed to be doing Weight Watchers! 

UP: We got 4 more Yes RSVPs yesterday!

IA: one of them was an email saying, "I want chicken. Do I have to RSVP?"  It's an online form, lady! you had to look at it to know what you want to eat! All you needed to do was type your name in and hit submit (it defaults to "yes" and the non-vegetarian option for food)! #headdesk

UP: Managed to actually get together with some of my friends last night for drinks.  We've been trying to get together for ages but everyone's schedules were clashing.  We managed to plan to go to a lecture in a couple of weeks as well.

IA: I drank a little too much last night and I know I'm just going to be completely unproductive today. 

UP: Went to see Pygmalion and it was quite fun.

IA: Too tired to do my workout. Just means Saturday won't be a day off, then, and I'll take it today.

UP:  Had a fabulous afternoon meeting up with Andee, MLG & Magikalcattie for coffee tawk - started at 2 & before we knew it was 5 o'clock!  Where does the time go?!  And then - Andee & I ran into HME on the bus!!!  It's like all in the neighbourhood around here - lol!

IA:  Andee & I got on the first available bus back to our town, which meant walking up to mine from our train station.  And it started p*ssing down rain the moment we got off the bus.  It's a half mile walk - so we both got soaked, well Andee more because she didn't have a waterproof & neither of us thought to take umbrellas.  Derrrr...

This is all IA/UP, like each bit of it is both...  

We were going to do a training ramble this weekend - as we are pretty much every weekend until...  Anyway, I wasn't feeling great yesterday & told DH that I feel tired so we decided not to go today on a walk, which is both good & bad.  DH said if we were going to walk, although the weather looked iffy to me, well he said - no it's supposed to be dry all day & I said even with those dark clouds out there?  Hmmm...  Well it's raining now - lol!  Plus it's kind of cold & windy this weekend, IMO - for MAY, for goodness sake it's supposed to be spring.  Anyway, I'm glad we decided not to go.  I'll probably do some stuff indoors on the Wii instead.  

UP: I remembered a big fat box of See's Nuts and Chews I brought over from the States and we cracked them open last night.

IA: I'm trying to "eat clean" this week (no sweets, crisps, booze or chips) and I already had a lovely chocolate with my coffee.

IA: I did 3 hours of cleaning tonight. 

UP: I did 3 hours of cleaning tonight. House is cleaner then its been in a long while. First time in ages I've had time to clean. Its nice to have a clean house!
