The heading means I've started trying to get myself more motivated to exercise and back on the weight loss bandwagon. I've started walking to work and done it for the last three days it takes about 40 minutes each way. I try to keep a decent pace.
I've also been careful with what I eat so hopfully when I weigh I'll see the improvement, maybe not this week but as the weeks pass by.
Still no wiser what will happen at work or when I'll finish, hopfully next week I should get some figures of what payout I'll get assuming finishing end of November. Obviously it it isn't taken over by then as said previously I'll probably be staying a few months which can only enhance my pay off. Its so frustrating just not knowing whether we should prepare for closing or reopening.
Its so quiet at work until we are pointed in a direction, it doesn't help motivation and its amazing how too much thinking time makes your mind run off at tangents. Its also difficult to concentrate on anything. I played a Table Tennis match last night and was poor lost two games ok to decent players, both in 5 sets but I was dissapointed cos I wasn't up for it and I'd play a few good points then give some sloppy one's away just no concentration.
As most of you know I'm old and next March will be my birthday a big one its my 5oth. I was discussing what to do was just gonna have a party but now thinking maybe a long weekend in the US with a few of the lads. A couple of friends have already indicated they are up for it (have you mentioned it yet to the missus yet Lofty). Not sure where we would go probably to where we can get the best price cos money may be tight for some people.
Today at work some others were showing a bit of interest but obviously a lot of folk say that until it comes to finding the cash. Don't worry that will be collected prior to booking.
Now checking the dates my Birthday clashes with Easter which is early next year (Good Friday to be accurate), now my questions to my American Friends :-
1. How busy is Easter in the US ?
2. Do Bars & Clubs close early at easter ?

I'm 50 to next year too, although it is near to the end of 2008.
I think I may get drunk. :)
what a way to spend your b'day. can't believe you're going to be 50, you don't look it.
thanks for the comments on my blog, the hubby is pretty happy! i always tell him he's a lucky man. only part of the time he agrees with me! he tends to disagree when i'm out spending money :-)
i hope you get an answer re work soon, nothing worse than living in limbo - it drives me spare. i had 9 months of it this year and it's enough to last a liftime.
good going on the walking to work, it's excellent. you'll see movement on the scales before you know it!
take care
xx
Airliebird,
I suppose we could lie about our age, then of course get drunk.
San,
Thanks for the compliment, I'm chuffed.
Your hubby is a lucky man, in fact the partners of all my lady blog friends are lucky. I want to come back as a rich arab and take 12 wives, lol.
I said 12 sorry Spider & Joel.
Yes I do know about the trip to America. It's ok Lofty's just agreed to our bedroom having a whole new make over. It's amazing what he'll agree to if he desperately wants to go somewhere!! You're going to be busy next year as Lofty says you may come to Dublin with us to help celebrate his 40th!! Glad you're motivated again with your exercise. I've been lax for a few months now, but have started to get back into it. You certainly have to be in a certain mind set, but I'm sure you will get there. Tc.
Easter is usually a rather busy travel time in the states, but not too crazy. To my knowledge, bars do not close early for the holiday, but I guess it all depends on where you go.
New Orleans never closes.
Jk,
Just one bedroom reckon you are letting him off light.
Jenny,
It sounds a bit like here.
Rebecca,
New Orleans, I'll look at costs reckon the boys would enjoy it, just not the easiest flight for just a weekend trip from where I live.
50! It's great turning 50. I agree, you need to do something really special.
Suzy,
I'm not the sort of person that worries about age too much, but it does make you think about what the future has in store when its a milestone age.
I still reckon I act younger than a lot that are actually younger if that makes sense.
Young and Daft I was thinking, lol.
