Shameless Self Promotion

10 03 2011

Going by the calendar, and ignoring the timezone, it’s my birthday today.  38!  Woohoo!

So far I’ve had an amazing day, and utterly enjoyed all the well wishes from my friends, a perk of being active on Facebook.

Thank you to everyone, I’ve had an amazing day.  The only thing that could have possibly made it more perfect would have been having my Mum, sister and nephews here.

Love you all!





Inlaws in Seattle

7 03 2011

Mark’s brother Adam and his wife Nicole landed in Seattle this afternoon for their first ever visit, and while they’re a little exhausted from their trip, we’ve already whisked them off for dinner, a drink, a scenic view of Seattle at night and now we’re all home again and relaxing.

Mark’s excited to have his big brother here. Smile





Bring On The Gain

6 03 2011

Cuz I’m in pain.  Ohhh, I’m a hurtin’.

I’m back, after a blogging break, a break in which I’ve been focussing on my health and regular workouts and improved diet.  So far the results have been a tediously slowly decreasing body weight, but my heart is getting stronger and that’s the important part.

Today was my alleged rest day, the only rest I had was not attending the gym.  I’ve worked out 7 times in 6 days, and hurt enough to support my claims, and today should have been spent resting on the couch.  Not so.  You see Mark’s brother and his wife arrive for a week long stay tomorrow, and this meant that we had the exciting task of cleaning house, a task that’s a lot more epic than it should probably have been as Mark is a bit of a hoarder.  A label that he’ll deny to the grave.

The house does look decidedly better though, which is a nice change and now I’m finally sitting on the couch.

Bedtime shortly, and back to the gym grindstone in the morning.
