Dark Day – Mark 2

Well just when you think that things (proverbially) cannot get any worst they do. For reasons that I cannot disclose and for the simple fact that I do not know anything myself anyway I was suspended on full pay for the moment.  I feel numb, and just do not know what to do about it.  Unfortunately I really cannot discuss it as it is a confidential issue related to work.  So this is all I can say really……

Dark Day

I feel like i am having one of those days, i feel a weary ache so deep in my soul that i know nobody but myself can cure it, and the chance of me fixing it anytime soon is very unlikely. So i will close up for a little while and smile when people expect it of me. In time i will smile for real, Just not today……..

Weight loss Update – Getting back on the scales!

Ok bad news first

19stone 1.7lb

Thats an increase of about 2.5lb since last time, but last time was 6 weeks ago so, overall, not that bad really.

So its up the gym in like 15 minutes and the start of freaky 3 weeks.  I did it not so long ago (In January) where I lost a stone in three weeks and I think its time I did that again and then ease up a bit.  However I got a wedding on August 2nd which is just under 4 weeks away and I want to be at the most 18 stone 7lb when I put on my suit again, but would prefer to be in the top end of 17 stone.  So here is to madness as I descend into it for a few weeks to make sure the weight comes off.

Talk about a crappy week

I bought some wood for making shelves to put all my books on (well what else can you put on shelves then?)  I put them in my car, sliding them up to my windscreen.  I carefully closed the boot, got in the car and then slid the wood to one side to make room for the gears and hand brake, and then the window cracked under the pressure of the glass.  Now its gonna cost me £60 to replace the wind screen.

The Healing process

I know its only a cat, but she was my cat…..

After I rushed to the vet to see if they could save Phoebes kittens, only to find out they died within seconds of her passing I came home and cleaned.  I removed all traces of her from the living room, cleaned out her bowls, her litter tray, her water bowl, her basket and then I sat down.

The following day I brought home two kittens to try and bring some fun into the house, their names are Marv (after Sin City) and Midnight

weight update – as requested

OK folks, as requested by icewitch, my weight update for today, oddly enough, although I thought I might of put on some weight, I actually lost some…….

19stone 6.7lb.  So I am now in the home run, the lower half of 19 stone.  Not that much further before I will be saying 18 stone sumit, and that will be so cool……

So bye for now folks

love you all loads

update on a crazy week off

Well back in work today, poor me.

So being as I have not written for a while on my blog I thought I would give everyone an update on the last week and a bit.

Saturday 25th August – Went to the MAS Carnival in Swansea and then went for  a relaxing BBQ at blackpill, this in turn was followed by a walk around Clynne Park.  Overall a wonderful time out, especially as I was working in the morning as well, so an unexpected treat.

Sunday 26th August – Bullied, cajoled and generally shouted at my son from 11.30 in the morning until I dropped him off at his Mother’s at about 7.30 ish.  I am not too proud of the day as I was trying to motivate my son into using his pushbike, which he is simply too scared to use. I need to find a way that will help motivate him, rather than bully him.

Monday 27th August – Went to Bonymaen Park for a picnic and games with Jan and Family, followed by a walk to Crymlyn Nature Reserve.  A fun time spent with Ieuan, lots of frisbie throwing.

Tuesday 28th August – Went to Town with Ieuan to sort out some things.  Ended up booking myself in for a tattoo the following day.  My feet were screaming to me after 4 days of walking and I was knackered.

Wednesday 29th August – Went to Town in the afternoon to have my tattoo done, It hurt like loads, but I am really pleased with the reasults and am already looking at the next one (possible next month)

Thursday 30th August – During the late hours of the night leading to the following morning two kittens were born.  Phoebe delivered them about 2 weeks earlier and the barely weighed 50gms each.

Friday 31st August – Bought myself a new tv and a nintendo Wii.  Went out in the evening with my friends, played 10pin bowling and won 2 games out of 3.  Got a little bit drunk, went home and fell asleep on the floor next to the kittens and Pheobe to help keep an eye on them all,  Phoebe, on the other hand went to sleep on the bed, so a bit pointless really.

Saturday 1st September – Did some research on premature kittens.  Went to town with Ieuan and Jessica. Bought some kitten milk formula only to discover that both kittens had died by the time I got home.

Sunday 2nd September – Visited my Mam (as I always do now on a Sunday)

Monday 3rd September – Last day of Hols really.  Mowed my grass for the 2nd time since moving in

Throughtout the hols I had also been spending time working on a story with Jessica, one which I intend on finishing even though the last few days have seen little or no contribution.  I need to let go of it in some ways , instead of taking a very possessive stance, let Jess have some fun with it too.

Overall it was nice to spend some time with my son, it was nice to see some bonding between Jess and  Ieuan, I am starting to see the woman that she will become one day.  I enjoyed a few moments of adult conversation that was not work related with Jan, and had a light hearted week with my ex-partner Heulwen.

It was just a shame about Spots and Stripes, my two, never to be forgotten, kittens that never stood a chance.  May they hunt mice until their bellies are full……
