Just reporting in after a busy weekend.
finished the bottle of red by myself (note to self: don't open a bottle of good wine when nobody else in the house drinks)
Food has been ok but could have been better on the water, yesterday I had a good gym workout, followed by more ditch digging and driveway repairs. still feeling sore in the shoulders.
resisted a bottle of coke offered by hubby while watching a movie last night.
found it hard to resist ice creams on a hot day today when I had a house full of kids (My 3 plus their friends) running around eating ice cream in front of me but i managed to have only 1 frozen yoghurt instead.
tomorrow my new ride on lawn mower will get delivered so i can finally get some more work done in the garden.

I know what you mean about the wine! But you did great with the yogurt choice (and your workouts!!!!!).
It feels weird reading your plans to mow and garden, etc. while I'm looking out the window at our white Christmas snow covering EVERYTHING. BRrrr! I love it for now, but I want hot summer back in January! LOL

Julie the past few days have been busy but the next couple of days should be a little bit more quiet so i will bo around a little more.
Barbie thanks for the support, sometime i wish it would get cold enought to snow here even in winter.
My new mower arrived this afternoon and i managed to get done in 1.5 hours what normally takes all day by hand but it doesn't burn as many calories.
todays food was awful beginning with no breakfast, then a good workout then into town for shopping in 30 (94 F) + heat, crowds everywhere and almost no parking places to be had. ended up parking about 1 km from the shops then had to carry a big heavy rabbit hutch to the car up hill then up 4 levels of steps. drank a small bottle of coke no lunch then back into town to buy the stuff i forgot when in town the first time drank an energy drink afternoon spent mowing then hubby buys pizza for tonights meal, ate 4 slices (Vegetarian pizza) and guzzled some coke not sure how much but at least i didn't drink all of it. didn't drink any water
not a good doay but hopefully tomorrow will be les hectic and better for both food and water.

Wow, what a busy/hectic day you had!
It's interesting that you chose NOT to eat much, and drank extra coke instead. We're all so different in the way we react to stress. I probably would have eaten my fool head off, so I commend you on not doing so.
Congrats on your new mower! Don't worry, with part of the time it saves you, you can add in some more exercise (along with a lot of other daily chores that need to be done that you couldn't do before coz you were too busy mowing).

Hey there! Just checking in on you! Congrats on the new mower!!
Started getting some more mowing done at 6 am this morning but have just stopped after a near miss with a snake not certain but i think it was a or a but both are very nasty and I don't want to be bitten by either.
I think i will take a break and wait for the snake to slither away and hide somewhere else.
It is now 9 am so time for some breakfast.

Just finishing off my food and exercize for yesterday
had some water for breakfast but no food, went and had a nap after sleeping badly the night before then got some more work done bot now mowing. lunck was an energy drink folowed by a trip down to the creek to take the kids swimming and a few attempts by the boys to catch yabbies. supper was early and consisted of 2 lovely pieces of leather jacket (crumbed) and 6 pieces of calamari cooked to perfection, not rubbery at all.
this morning i am heading to the gym then a final shopping trip for food i don't normally want kept in the house to avoid temptation.

Hi Bron! Ok, what's a yabbie? I love snakes but fortunately I live where there are only 3 poisonous kinds. Rattlesnake, copperhead, and coral. Oh, if you go by the river there's cottonmouths too! Hey, mom really appreciated your taking the time to help her!
Back from shopping and a good gym workout
increased hack squats to 80 kg (176 pounds)
increased straight leg deadlifts to 40 kg (88 pounds)
increased squat rows to 64 kg (141 pounds)
increased shoulder press to 40 kg (88 pounds)
all at 4 sets of 15 reps
everything else still the same
gym is closed over xmas re opens on wednsday
Lunch: Orange Juice, Yoghurt, Tin of tuna.
April a yabbie is like a lobster but smaller and lives in fresh water.

Wow you have had an adventurous day!Snakes,last time I saw one it was at the beach in the sandhills.Me and my son were walking down a trail between two sandhills and it appeared out of nowhere about 2meters in front of us.It was just going across the track into the other sandhill.
I stopped my son cold and said to keep still,it didnt even notice us!
I was worried it would bite my son,so if it turned toward us,I would have picked him up and ran!
I see heaps of spiders around the cocky/rabbits cage!I HATE SPIDERS!!!!!!
Havent eaten a yabbie in years,used to catch them in the creek at my dads shack.
Dont like leather jacket much,never had a person cook it right probably.LOVE calamari,YUMMY!!!!
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

ok, now: what's leather jacket??? I got your card today. I absolutely loved it. Had me laughing for at least an hour. Once I got myself under control I scanned it and sent it to my mom. She loved it too!!!
April i am glad your card arived on time a Leather Jacket is a species of fish they have a tough leathery skin and a large spike on the top of the head. I used to catch them when i was growing up on the saphire coast (Far south coast of NSW) but they are not a species found in Queensland so to find some for sale locally was great.
I am giving my youngest son a new fishing rod tomorrow, he has been wanting one all year and insisting on going fishing so I might be going fishing tomorrow afternoon if the beach isn't too crowded with tourists.
