Here she is.............




Yesterday I received my business name registration in the mail. Couldn't believe it would be that quick but I was very excited when I opened it. Now I just need a shiny new frame for her. Isn't she pretty.
*proud mum ;-}*

I've done it

Thursday I signed up for my grooming course and have paid. All I have to do now is wait patiently for my stuff to arrive in the mail. Yippee for me. I just can't wait. Its funny actually because I was so excited I enrolled twice and when they called me back on Thursday to take my credit card details I think they must have thought I was a little crazy :-}

So now all I have to get done on my holidays starting this after 5.30pm today is start and finish painting mum's house before I can start on my course. I also want to get some intensive training on myself as I haven't worked out for a week today. Oops my bad. I also want to give my dogs some intensive training as well so that should be fun.

I think that I will re enter the 12 week challenge as this challenge is all shot to pieces. I feel like I never complete a whole challenge. I either send in my stuff before I'm ready to begin or I end up losing steam a few weeks in. I brought a mini tramp on Wednesday night to stop with the 'its to cold or dark to go and do cardio'. I do think that I may have something wrong with me as I am always tired, even when I haven't worked out. Once I get home from work, I could go to bed at 6.30pm. I don't because that is just ridiculous so I wait to at least 8.30pm but getting up even at 7am, I just find it so hard. I've tired to get up when I wake Dazza sometimes at 5am but I just can't. I know I should be getting plenty of sleep but this is getting ridiculous!

Yeah for me......... we are in business

Today was very exciting for me. I finally got off my butt and registered a business name for my dog and cat grooming venture.

"POOCH & PUSS PLEASURE PALOUR"

I can't wait to get it off the ground. I have been madly buying equipment and some if it is large and costly so will have to buy on the way or make do with what I have for the mean time. Kerryn gave me some invaluable tips today, thanks Kerryn. Like insurance for any injury that I may cause to someone's animal. (Heaven forbid) but I hadn't actually thought about that. All I was thinking is I love animals and what a great job. So will have to do some more research to cover everything.

Oh NO!

So I have found that I haven't exercised since Friday, for which all of the reasons I have stated in a previous post so won't bore you. However the last 2 days I have found that the shift I'm on is not very conducive to exercise, by the time I wake in the morning and get my chores done before work, there is no time. When I come out of work, its dark and can't walk then. (I'm a scaredie cat who doesn't like to walk alone in the dark :-( ) I know deep down that its all just excuses and I'll never get anywhere if I keep this up. But maybe jumping on the scales on Saturday in Target did end up effecting me. I just knew that if I did it I would get depressed if I couldn't see a change. Even though the result wasn't conclusive due to the scales giving different results, the fact that one said I was the same, has effected my brain. Dam those scales. I feel like I have to start from the beginning again on day 1. (*frustrated look*)

Ykes this is the third day without exercise

Ok I have come to the realisation that I have become lazy! Friday I didn't 'find' the time to exercise because I have the Tupperware party pretty much straight after dinner, (however was good food wise at the party, *pat on my own back*). Then Saturday, seemed to fly by and then next thing you know we are on our way to the pizza place for Mumsy's birthday party, (tomato based pasta dish wih 2 bits of garlic bread and water only :-}) and now its the start of the day for Sunday and truely I just couldn't be stuffed!

I am trying to draw on the fact that mumsy told me she could see the difference, don't know if its because I prompted her, but she said she truely could see it from my hips and butt. I'll believe her.

Tried to cheat at Target yesterday as well and jumped on the scales in the scales department but they all gave a different reading so didn't know whether to be happy or sad, so have just moved on. haven't told Dazza about my relapse with the scales, he might ban me from shopping. *look of horror*

Yay I found away

Today I thought I would try and outsmart myself with the Sea Minerals after last night thinkin it would be easier to just take them straight, well that was just wrong! But today, brought myself some cranberry juice, which already quite tart and put it in. You know you can hardly taste the wretched stuff. Thank God.

Today is mother in-laws birthday. Happy Birthday Mumsy ;-}

Brought myself some ugg bootie things today, so will be toastie warm in the mornings now, if only Molly doesn't decide that they are hers for the chewing. Speaking of puppies, I saw 2 very georgous Maltese X puppies today at the shopping centre, just like my Becky. I actually had them out of the glass enclosure and had mum holding one and me with the other. They are both girls and I would love to add them to my family. God knows we will probably only end up with fur babies by the end of our lives anyways. So tomorrow I will take Dazza up to see them and maybe put a deposit on them. :-}}}}}}

Watch out for old friends on the phone????





So Wednesday night I got a call from a friend that I hadn't seen in a while to go to her Tuppaware party, and you already know how that goes. The guilt of having a party. Well I was strong and resisted the party push and have only brought some stuff, well $150 worth actually so not just some although it really is only a few pieces. Quite expensive stuff the Tuppaware, considering I actaully sold some on Ebay not that long ago because I didn't actaully use it. I must say there was a water bottle that my fellow fitness freaks would like, as the bottom was removable so you could put a key for say a locker or car, earings, cash or bandaids for Kek (LOL) so you don't need pockets or anything, however at about $27 for a water bottle I couldn't justify it since I have been carrying around a bottle for a few weeks now and have had no problems. Things I brought tonight......................

I also brought some Jacqui E jeans from Ebay, brand new with tags for $27 (tag started $79.95) and they arrived today. Didn't know if they would fit at they are a size 16 and I'm normally into a 18 in jeans but much to my suprise, the size 16, low riders fit. I could even sit down without cutting myself in half! Can't wait to lose a bit more so that I will be completely comfortable in them and when they start to get too big...........

I asked Dazza last night if I even looked like I had lost some weight, as you know I'm not weighing myself, and I don't know if he was just trying to shut me up, but he said 'maybe'. Great, love the confidence that he instills in me. Will be seeing mother in-law tomorrow and she can always see when I"ve lost weight so will wait for her comment.

Well, best be off, well past my bed time and the mumma will be over tomorrow for her normal Saturday visit and will have to have all of my exercise completed before hand. Need to sleep right NOW.
