Sunny(?) Sunday

Well its Sunday. Is it going to be lazy Sunday? NO! Was up early but caught up on last nights TV. Headed to the pool just before eight. Got there a little later than would have liked but hey still managed 50 in an hour. Had to head home as Steve had to head to work.

Yesterday we went to Caroline and Emily's house after dance class. Mary, Ellen and Jennifer went along as well. Caroline was fab to me and made me a special lunch! We had a good chat, putting the world to rights! We are going to try and get to the cinema this month. Must get that organised. Nice to have a few female friends around you trust and can chat to. We all have a few issues, different backgrounds and only the kids in common but that can sometimes be all that's needed to make a "connection". Went shopping for a few foody bits after and £60 late we left the shop! Thought I supposed to be saving money eating less.

Friday went to gym after school. Another disaster with Emma's class. But they got them in eventually! Managed 32 lengths while she was in class and then a swim after with Emma.
Been good so far this weekend. Lots of tidying to do today before the cable guy comes! Also Mum's birthday on 4th. Our 20 year anniversary of meeting on 8th. Where have the years gone!
WI tomorrow. Have to go to Leeds for a meeting in am. Toying with heading to stamp it up demo tomorrow night what to do!?! not sure will get a swim in but hope weather holds for another walk with Jackie and Daniel.

As I was swimming today was thinking of setting some goals and rewards tied in with my exercise and dieting.

5 Goals
3 stones plus by Xmas
at goal for 39th birthday ( oh that will be a challenge!)
2 Gym trips a week and 2 swims a week plus 1 walk over 30 mins each week by September.
Sub 60 mins mile swim by end of July.
Walk to school 4 times in July - only 3 weeks left eek!
5 Rewards
Loss of 1 stone - Atonement DVD ( not that far off I hope!)
Loss of 1.5 stones - £50 crafts purchase ( new cricut cart me thinks!)
Loss of 2 stones - IPOD or similar to use at the Gym
Loss of 2.5 stones - £100 on new clothes (hope will be Autumn time!)
Loss of 3 stones - full body massage

Will revisit these each month and add and cross off.

It is coming up to 1 month now. So on that day will post my What is going well, what is helping, what not so well and what is hindering. I hope to reflect on how to get over any slumps!
