Last night, I foolishly went to sleep at 7pm. It wasn't planned, I just got home and felt exhausted, so dropped off. I woke at midnight. After lying awake til half past, I got up and watched some telly, then did the chores I meant to do last night: made todays breakfast, lunch for today/tomorrow/Friday, did the washing up, general tidied up the kitchen a bit, put some food in the freezer. Went back to sleep after 3am. (Thank you Paul McKenna).
Woke up this morning trying to convince myself that I was fine and refreshed and all the rest. Truth is – I'm not. I'm knackered. I've spent the last three hours in work doing anything and everything to stay awake. I've not gone back on the coffee or chocolate yet, and I'm determined not to, but I did pack a bit of extra lunch today on the understanding that since I'm tired, I'll probably need it. Add on to all that, the weather turned last night so it's wet and damp and miserable today. I'm feeling quite homesick actually!!
In other news – Second week at running club went well on Monday – I did 2miles in less than 30mins. OK I was the slowest of the pack, but the leader came back and ran with me for most of it so it was all fine and I felt great afterwards. I'm planning on a trip to the gym tonight to a) tire me out completely and b) get some more running in.
Weight loss is happening as well- 4kg off this week, so I'm now the lightest I've been since Sept 2010. Yup, that's right, Sept 2010 – that's eighteen months ago. Feeling quite proud of myself right now. It also means I've lost 16kg since I was at my heaviest last year, which is 2.5stone. The Amanda Hamilton diet appears to work, even when not followed strictly to the letter.
So as of now, I have 5hrs 45mins left in work. I've got a meeting for at least one of those hours and lunch for another 30mins, which leaves me with 4hrs 15mins to fill…..what to do, what to do……..
Think I might mess about with some spreadsheet and look busy, while thinking of ways to make a bit of extra money and pay off some of the debt…….well I can hope right?
