It's been ages since I even thought of updating this thing! Very strange. For something that used to be such a huge part of my life going to basically not looking at it ever, very strange.
Anyhoo, what have I been up to since my last entry? To be honest, nothing particularly exciting! Same old same old. Still reading way too much (though have cut down on the number of books I am buying to try and get through the rather considerable back log!), still actually enjoying my job which is remarkable. Still on my diet-that-isn't-really-a- diet. Have now lost 4 stone and some lbs...can't remember how many! It was 4st 7lb, but I put a few on this week after a rather indulgent trip to London this past weekend where as well as going to see 'Hamlet' at The Globe, I basically ate my own body weight in crap food I shouldn't really have had. It was amazing! Both the theatre visit and the scoff haha! But anyway, am now two dress sizes smaller than I was - and hope to drop at least another - and feel so much happier and better. My mum is still losing weight and has just reached the 4 and a half stone mark. My brother started coming along with us about a month or so ago and he's already lost over 2st! It's all rather fabulous.
And all means that I will amazing in my rather expensive dress next Saturday for when my friend Ruth gets married. So looking forward to it. Her fiance is such a lovely guy and they are so happy. I am also, for my sins, making their wedding cupcakes for them, which is both a tremendous honour and a terrifying prospect! They have to be perfect and I just know some hideous ass is going to judge them. I may be a nervous wreck by the end of next week. But at least I will be a slimmer nervous wreck wearing an awesome dress!
