Week Forty Nine

Week forty nine was brilliant, here are the highlights:

It was freezing cold but I still went for a 50 length swim :)

We had a few laughs in the office :)

Zumba was great and certainly warmed me up!

Maddie wanted to do her Charlie's Angels pose!

Our weekend started at 12:30 on Wednesday and the sun was shinning :)

This cheeky minx wanted us to have a photo with our hats on :)

My friend Steph travelled down from Yorkshire and stayed with me for a couple of days :)

We put the Christmas tree up :)

And started our #jandsadventselfie photos :)

Alfie was so pleased that he hadn't been left out of the advent calendars :)

I lost 2.5lbs and was Slimmer of the Week :)

I then met up with my friend Davide:

And he treated me to this amazing dirty pudding :)

Some arsehole hit my car!

I dropped Alice off at school, I think she was a bit excited!

This is one of my favourite Christmas traditions, drinking Disaronno while wrapping presents and watching Christmas films :)

And now I'm all done and can put my feet up and enjoy the rest of the season :)

I went to dinner at Sarah's, she decided to make me a fancy coffee but I ended up with a cup of ground coffee beans! :)

On Saturday morning I was hanging!

But I went to Sarah's to help put her Christmas decorations up, Bingo joined in :)

She decorates like a toddler, I had to keep moving bits so they weren't all clustered together.  I think she just gets a bit excited :)

At bingo in the evening they gave us these cute Christmas pugs :)

On Sunday morning I had a lovely walk over the golf course:

I then spent the afternoon making coffee cupcakes and creating mincemeat cupcakes with a brandy butter frosting :)

Before soaking in the bath with my Christmas scented bubble bath :)

This week is going to be lovely and quite but there are some great things going on at the weekend.

Have a great week and thanks for stopping by

Week Forty Eight

Week forty eight was a good one, here are the highlights:

I kicked off with an eggnog latte, a great way to start the working week :)

The temperature has dropped but I'm still going swimming!

Zumba was brilliant as usual, I still go left when the rest of the group are going right but I always have a blast :)

I spent a lot of time with my girl :)

It's time to wear a hat on my evening walk!

It was buzzing outside my office with the town getting ready to switch the Christmas lights on :)

I had another weight loss, that's 20 weeks in a row that I've lost weight now!

I enjoyed dirty pudding :)

This lazy boy didn't want to get out of bed in the morning!

I've been enjoying my walk in the park every day :)

It seems that every time I look up from my work she's hanging off the edge of my desk! :)

I went down to see Paul for the weekend :)

And we had our annual trying on of silly Christmas hats :)

As well as a nice treat :)

After a really lovely, relaxing weekend I  was back with my boy....

And my girl :)

This week is going to be a busy one with lots of lovely things happening.

Enjoy the end of November

Week Forty Seven

Well it's better late than never! Here are the highlights from week forty seven:

I had Monday off work so went walking with my friend and her dog Bingo :)

I tried out some new make-up :)

I had a night out at bingo but no winnings :(

The Christmas tree went up outside my office :)

I helped Hells Bells pick her new glasses :)

I had a great workout at Zumba  even if I did nearly get beaten about the head by an uncoordinated woman who was a bit enthusiastic with her Zumba weights!

I quickly made this hat to stop Alice pinching mine!

And she loved it :)

I went to a quiz night, we came last but excelled at the raffle :)

Despite my weekend away I managed to lose 3.5lbs and pick up this beauty :)

I certainly enjoyed dirty pudding :)

I also had Friday off work and went to the Knit, Stitch and Hobbycraft show.

With my lovely friend Sandra :)

On Saturday I went for a very cold walk!

And had a cuddle with this pickle :)

Then I popped in to see one of my oldest friends Sara

Who chopped off all my long locks :)

On Sunday I went for a very wet walk!

And then made some Christmas cards, this one is a copy of one I'd seen at the craft fair

But this one was my own creation :)

Then I snuggled under the blanket and watched TV for the rest of the day :)

And before I knew it another Monday had arrived and it was time to head back to work :(

I hope your week is going well
