B-day now nearly over! Actually, seeing as I was born at 20 to 7 in the evening I'm not officially a year older for another 1/4 hour ish. But anyway.
Today did NOT get off to a good start in that I am the same weight as last week, which is very annoying/frustrating/upsetting because I tried really hard this week, and I know that next week's going to be a difficult one. There's no point getting upset about it, but I feel like I'm getting nowhere fast which is not good when you have a long way to go. And did today's paper HAVE to print an article of a smirking woman who wasn't even particularly fat to start with going on about "how I lost 5 stone in 5 months"? Grrr!
Then, when I went to the newsagent's to pay the papers, I bought a creme egg. Which will not have helped. But which made me feel much better!
Not many historic places are open at this time of year, but we did find Ripley Castle, near Harrogate. Luckily I wasn't driving - there were nasty roadworks in Leeds and it got confusing and stuff like that panics me! It was quite an interesting place. They had a priest-hole: we once had a temp history teacher at school who was obsessed with Jesuits and priest-holes, so I always feel like I should get excited when I see one! And EBD goes on about them a lot, of course. & there was a nice village there too. Weather wasn't bad at all for February. So quite a good day out :-).
