Cate's Diary

It was booked out & we ended up at The Cherry Shed cafe instead, which was excellent. We had a lovely lunch with the kids.
 
Thanks, Em. I had a lovely start to the day, with our son D & the 3 GK's coming up for breakfast. They left & G & I went & played 9 holes of golf. We came home & had a light lunch & have sat around all afternoon just reading & now I am officially bored. Usually, we spend the evening home with our sons, after spending lunch with G's extended family, but this year is quite different & it just feels like any other day. R is back at work after his accident & couldn't come home for Christmas. I miss him. I'm ok though. Mainly just bored.
 
That is the cutest devil ever. We don´t have a very Chirstmassy Christmas either this year as we´re not having C dinner until the 28th. Not bored though, still got some crafting to do for my present; I procrastinated sooo much this year!
 
Devils are very cute. Christmas to me is always a strange time. I am so allergic to fuss, but then on the day, I wished I had gone to more trouble & fuss. I'll get a balance eventually haha. Next year if R is going to be home & D & the kids I'll really go all out.
I'm planning 2018 & deciding what I want to change. I'll do it one month at a time I think.
January is going to be alcohol-free. Eek! Those 2 glasses of wine at the end of the day are such a part of my routine.
Jan I am also counting my calories & logging on my fitness pal again. I may open my diary as well. If anyone wants to add me I'm CateAussie.
I really, really want to lose weight in 2018. I would like to drop 2 kg in Jan & then 1 kg a month until I am back down to my happy weight. I think I should cut out all bread, pasta & rice for a month too, but I may leave that for Feb. I'll see.
We are in our wood carting clothes today & are taking a load down to D's place.
I really enjoyed our 9 holes of golf yesterday. It's fun just to play for the fun & exercise, without being in a comp. We're going to have another hit either tomorrow or Thursday. I have played much better the last 2 games.
 
I know. Quiet is preferable to flat out. I prefer our Christmas Day when the boys spend the end of the day with us, but that can't always be. Hopefully next year :)
I played another 9 holes of golf today. "Happy Golf"- I like it :D
 
Spending the day with the littlies again today as their older brother is not about & D has to work. Having a lovely day. To get them active I started a little speed challenge on my exercise bike. :) That worked! E's is currently beating me(53.7 kph to my 52.6). C is on 44. I've put the seat right down for them, so I don't think I'll be able to beat that today!
 
Playing 18 holes of golf again today. It's cool(ish), but fairly windy. I want to get the exercise, but I don't feel like going! G put our names down & then 2 men put theirs down next to us. One is a very good player & very moody & the other is lovely but almost impossible to understand. He has an incredibly thick Scottish accent. "Happy Golf"..........
 
We´ve got a proper storm going here and I came back half-frozen from this morning´s boat ride. Hope you have fun at golf!

Are both your pare's avid twitchers LaMa? I did have fun, thanks, but the weather wasn't pleasant. It was very windy, but not like your storm obviously. EEK!
You're in major golf mode I see. That's great. Hope you played well.
I am in golf mode Em. I didn't play very well at all, but still enjoyed it. It's great exercise. Most people push buggies around & don't ride in carts like they do in many countries. For me, it's about the exercise & being outside.
 
Yay for enjoying the fresh air and wandering around some lovely scenery :) My parents are interested in anything and everything natural, be it birds, landscapes, plants or rocks :p
