So a gain. No surprise there (for me that is). This weeks excuse is hubby's birthday. The night before I went to his work's flat for a sleepover and we had a special birthday meal (basically means we had pudding, after dinner chocolates and wine). Then on his birthday he came home after work and we had another birthday meal (see above) and of course cake. A couple of days later work is over, daughter is also home so we celebrate the birthday again, and our son's last exam and me applying for a 'proper' job (sounds like any excuse for a party) and had Indian food - yummy! Then the following day we have a birthday party with hubby's family - pizza, wine and more cake!!
Well my very scientific experiment re creme egg cheesecake? Yep, it proved nothing at all except there really are weirdos who do not like creme eggs!!! Nutters, the lot of you.
You are all waiting with baited breathe to find out about my netball match? The other team (senior year 3 - circa b. 2004 mean average 13 years) had not been told they were playing us. When we (mean average 35 years) started to arrive, their faces were a picture. I noticed lots of mouthing 'what the hell are they doing here?' Then one plucky lass asked her coach (and I quote) 'Why are the old wifeys here?' Well I'll give you old wifey! We won the first game! Ha! Overall, a draw - 2 games each! Not too shabby. And we only lost 2 because our best shooter a) took a break b) then took a defence position. I must say - the little ones (well quite tall ones actually) were very very good at scoring but us oldies were very good at defence. Anyway, it was great fun.
Yesterday I had my 24 hour blood pressure monitor fitted. Joys. Lots of questions about health (how much alcohol do I drink? I smiled, and said about 6 units a day - and as soon as the words were out my mouth I realised I must have had brain freeze for a minute because the allowance is 14 units :-) but a week not a day :-( oops! Smile gone. And she weighed me ... the scale of shame. Anyhow, on my drive home I was feeling a wee bit sorry for myself, in so much as, it's my fault I'm fat/got high BP/high cholesterol/can't run/etc etc etc. So when I got home I -
a) ate cake
b) cried
c) went to the gym
d) went to bed
e) all 4
Answers on a postcard (or my facebook page). (I bet you all answer e).
Anyway, this week I have another birthday. My father-in-law has a special birthday. It would be rude to tell you how old he is, but it includes a 7. So much drinking, eating and celebration. And we also have Valentine's day. (Happy Anniversary Sister & Brother-in-law). I hope you all have someone to love, and don't worry if you don't....
