Okay, I know I just posted on Friday, but something else good happened! A second person at work asked me if I was losing weight. When I told her yes, she commented on how good I look!

AND I just had a delicious taco salad for lunch

That's great Cloud. I'd say "spend it wisely", but meh, coffins don't have saddle bags....

I did my first day volunteering at the Save the Children charity shop yesterday from 10.00-18.00. My first work since I finished working in the shop last July.

It went well and I'm back in there tomorrow from 10.00-16.00 and actually quite looking forward to it.

I'm going to lie-in on Sundays and Tuesdays and actually feel there is a difference!

Usually I"m bitching, so:

What's making me happy today:
1) I organized my office yesterday and got ready for new year set-up and for the first time in 4 years I am not woefully behind due to a million setbacks (knocking on wood.)

2) Our boss is taking us to lunch for going way above and beyond for spring term.

3) It's Friday

4) We're closed Monday: 3 day weekend!

Sundae that's totally cool! I hope you are as proud of yourself as we all are of you. It's a great step back out into the world; volunteering was how I got back into things after a longish spell on incapacity benefit. Not to mention it's genuinely useful: I am quietly convinced our country would grind to a juddering halt if all the voluntary workers were to down tools one day :P

Well done you. And yeah, those lie-ins will mean a lot more now


What's making me happy is that in about two hours I am off to a family get-together. It's my cousin's 40th and she's decided to have a party. Apart from two cousins (and their parnters + kids) who upped sticks and moved to kiwi-land a couple of years back, the whole clan'll be there. Haven't seen most of 'em in years, some haven't seen for a decade and a half!

Am lookin forward to catchin up, am lookin forward to seein our Rachie's 'Bump' (still freaks me out my baby cuz is spawning already!) and...D's comin with me Bless him that's a brave move...he's met my mum and my bro before (tho before we were together) but he's about to meet the whole clan en masse :P

Spoke to the birthday girl on facebook and she was in the middle of making about 400 sandwiches to add to the buffet lol

*smiles* off to have a bath and get ready now.

My wife and I had dinner last Friday night with Case, mac_tire, and their amazingly-well behaved son.

Also, I had a green belt test Saturday morning, which I passed.

I'm going to pick my kids up from my Dad's place. They've been there for over a week now. I miss them a lot.
