Managed to complete the 14 day shred!

 Evening


Once again I had to get up for a massive wee in the night >.> I'm not having a hot drink before bed and see if that helps >.>

This morning we both got up about 7:45am as the electrician was coming over at 9am but turns out he didnt come over til 9:30am 

but this morning, I needed to cook my breakfast as I had ran out of turkey so i cooke dmy new pack of turkey in the same seasoning i used last time - honey, soy sauce, coconut sugar - and there was one tiny stake in the packet, a stake that wouldnt fill me. I had 1 egg left so i cooked an omelette in the same pan once the stake was out and cus it had been cooked in the seasoning it made the egg sweet and it was actually really really tasty!!! for the first time in weeks i enjoyed my breakfast, it was so damn good!!!

So this morning I tidied up whilst Jack i feel spent all morning in the toilet

i asked if he was ok but he said his stomach is massively off. he didnt have breakfast and just sat in a ball which isnt like him. Thats usually me XD

I let him see to the electrician whilst I went outside and decided to go put the first coat of paint on the door and window frame. I was in a t-shirt and joggers - my painting clothes - I was so cold as it was 0c! i had goosebumps constantly and my finger ends had gone bluey purple...but i got it done and came in for a warm. By which point the electrician was leaving. We are able to finally put our plates and bowl back into the cupboard. they havent been in the right place for over month, making another cupboard rather congested. So I was happy about that but I still have wiring in places I would rather not see wiring hanging from. But it will get sorted in march he says....he says...

I decided to warm myself up by doing my work out. I worked out that it was my 14th day! So I have completed the 2 week shred challenge! I plan to weigh myself at mum's tomorrow

hopefully i have lost some weight. But I want to continue with it as I feel fitter, I have enjoyed working out and if I can shed some weight that would be great as I HATE looking at myself.

I had a shower not a bath as its quicker and didnt want to occupy the bathroom if jack's stomach is off as he was just constantly running to the bathroom.

We had lunch together but he said he felt worse for eating and just stayed in a ball on the sofa. I went to go put a second coat on the door. Oz wasnt much company XD

I came in and laid on my bed for an hour. It was so lovely and warm outside now and I felt i should be outside in it but I was so exhausted, jack was asleep on the sofa.

So in the end i brought Oz inside to cheer Jack up a bit

he stayed inside with us over an hour just sleeping in his hay basket

I took him home and we did dinner, but I once again got stomach pains after eating. Not as bad as last 2 days but stomach pain nonetheless. 

for dinner tho it was omelette and sweet potato chips, i cooked my egg in the same way as this morning and it was just as good ^^

Jack has now just gone to do something on his PC then he says he is sitting on sofa all evening...must be bad if he cant sit at his PC gaming!

not sure what we will do tonight. Im tempted to go on just dance or learn a dance.


Tomorrow

weekly morning shop~

then come back and unpack then I might wash my car over at mum's but I have got to go over anyway as its my brother's birthday, seeing as hes at his girlfriends house i said i will leave his present and card on his bed. Then I need to make my soup. I have bathroom to clean. and maybe a 3rd coat needs to happen to the door. When it fully dried i could see it could benefit from another coat but sun was going down by this point and rapidly going cold so i left it as the paint wouldnt dry properly.

not sure what else i will do, probably my work out at some point.

2 days of stomach ache

 Evening


I kept waking up last night so I was a bit tired this morning but got on with it

we dropped Oz off for day care and went to work

Work was same old, sat on my own listening to my ipod whilst painting. Got my painting finished and typed up my timetable. So yeah got all my jobs done today

Jack had my lunch so he had 2 pieces of pizza and 2 portions of chips. 2 cakes which he took home and that would be his 'dinner' I had soup


We got to mum's for a brew and for Ozwald but I only stayed til 4pm as I wanted to get back to do my exercises. We first watched the announcement for the new pokemon games. I want diamond and jack wants pearl. Cant say we were fussed on the other games coming out.

Then I cracked on with my exercises. somehow. it is hard at times

I went for a shower afterwards. Mum txted me to say she had tried one of Chloe Ting's workout videos. I was very pleased she had had a go. She said she enjoyed it.

I had my dinner which was left of thai stew. Jack sat with me whilst I ate so we could watch digimon together. I was soon in the ball position afterwards tho for over 45mins. I hate getting stomach ache cus it feels so unfair and makes me want to give the whole diet thing up. Jack just gamed next to me on the bed, not doing the washing up then going to play online with harvey and theo. He said he would do the washing up. too right as all he has done since 4pm is game and watch digimon!

I sat with Ozwald who was a bit tired to be honest. he has obviously had a busy day at mum's XD

then just doing my diary. Cant say I want to stay on my laptop.

not sure what I will do for the next hour whilst jack games


tomorrow

I will probably do my exercises as it will be day 13 out of 14! so I am getting close to finishing the 2 week program. I will try weigh myself over the weekend see if I have lost anything, fingers crossed

tomorrow when I have got my workout done with, I plan to paint the back garage door lime green! I bet Oz will give me a hand X3

I can not wait to do it. It will look loads better I am sure of it. Not sure what else I will do really.

How unfit!?

 Evening


Last night me and jack played Just Dance, as per his request

he had never played it before.

I let him choose which game and he chose just dance 2 which isnt a favourite of mine but he knew a lot of songs on that one. I let him pick songs. Song I had never even heard of before but no shock there

even tho I didnt know the song I still creamed his butt XD

after dance number 2 he was out of breath. I thought he was gonna have an asthma attack

he was sweating and panting.

I was fine....

He managed one other dance and said he had had enough....

was hardly worth getting the Wii set up XD

so i did a few more dances which he enjoyed watching

afterwards I said to him "you're really unfit arent you" he said "yeah"

I said "does it not bother you?"

he said "no i know I am unfit"

i said "yeah but if that was me I would want to change that. I couldnt bare to be that unfit"

I beat myself up for finding Chloe Ting's workout hard. Now I know that even tho my body is sickly that I do have a good level of fitness ^^ I have a lot to be proud of as I work damn hard

After all that excitement we watched Inuyasha and went to bed

This morning I didnt want to get up, I had woken up in the night, sweaty, again.

But I got up at 8am

I felt really achy and tired but by 9am I decided I would get ready to do my workout. Jack pushed me to do it as he knew I was struggling with the motivation. 

I managed it and went for a bath

when I got out the bath I started reading my science book

we had lunch then I cleaned the craft room window as it had all black mould growing round the frame. I then cleaned the kitchen window and the glass was dirty. I went outside and sanded down the back garage door, which Oz helped with XD

We had a staff meeting at 3:15pm online, just telling us about how the children are returning to school on 8th march. went on for half hour

after that I asked Jack if we could go shops for some paint for the back garage door so we popped out and acquired that. At first I picked up bright pink but looked at Lime colour and then Jack said "oh I like the Lime" so I thought, if he has noticed it and liked it I will go for that. We can see the door outside our bedroom window so its got to be something we both like.

Thats my project saturday morning ^^ I looked at colours to paint our actual garage door and saw a berry red I quite liked so I might do that that colour when the weather warms up. As painting on metal can be temperamental in cold weather


we came home and had a brew

I had been hungry since 2:30pm and snacked and couldnt wait for dinner

so when it came to dinner i couldnt wait but my stomach was curdling and when I sat down with my leftover meatballs i was battling with stomach pains. I ate the last half of my dinner laying out on the floor. As soon as I finished eating I was in the toilet, passing more food than i had eaten,

waste of time

i may as well have had my dinner at like 4pm when i was really hungry and i wouldnt have died of stomach pains then >.> so I was peed off

I rang mum whilst resting my stomach, i had Oz out too, Oz is going over to mum's tomorrow for day care. 

Now just doing my diary. Not sure what I will do after that as I have just under an hour before jack finishes up gaming with harvey and theo.

tomorrow is school :/

Photos of my dresser

 Evening


I slept a little bit better last night, waking up at midnight drenched in sweat, i went to the toilet and literally dried myself off as I was wet~ I am gross XD

I got up and used my shower for the first time! had my new bathroom a month and havent actually used the shower before, i was happy with it ^^

me and jack got my thai stew on, it was a totally winged recipe but it actually turned out really nice, i will make a note of what I actually did!

jack drove to school

I got to class a realised we had extra children so I couldnt sit where I usually do, meaning i didnt have access to a computer. Chris sorted me out a laptop tho ^^ and I had a desk all to myself and just spent my day painting. painting all day. my hand ached to be honest!

I had a meeting at 11am with head of science. To fill in my "return to work" form. usually i fill it out with jack and I was a bit worried as to why he wanted to do it with me, not jack.

Turns out it was because it had been flagged up that Jo here has had 21 days off in 12months....thats a fair amount i guess ^^; I was worried about what he was gonna say or do. I have never been in this position before. But all it was, was about supporting me in work so i dont end up having so much time off. He had looked at my notes and researched my conditions before the meeting which i thought was good of him. He asked about me, what i struggle with and how to improve it. He told me how amazing a job I do and what a great member to the science team i am and how the science department needed someone like me ^^ so it was all positive really.

Before I had even a chance to tell jack, head of science had bumped into jack getting lunch and told him that. i suppose nothing will stay secret from jack as hes line manager + boyfriend XD but yeah it was good. Just need to make a time table before next wednesday which is when i am meeting with him again. He wants me to have a structured day and to make sure i look after myself and fit my breaks into my day.

I drove us home, I didnt get my painting finished but I have friday to do that. 

we went to mum's and had a cup of tea and picked my ozwald up who was outside with the girls. Its always nice seeing him out with them. Mum said Oz hadnt been outside much cus of the wind tho

We got back and I decided I wanted to do my exercises! I cracked on with it and achieved it!

I had a much needed bath afterwards. Then served up my thai curry, jack had a whole packet of rice to himself which is for 2 people XD he enjoyed my dinner tho, and there is 4 extra portions! the slow cooker was brimming tho this morning XD

after dinner we rested a bit and then jack wanted to try Just Dance on the Wii, he picked songs he knew and i didnt or hadnt even been on the dance. I still beat him everytime. Also by dance 2 he was out of breath XD takes me til about 8 dances to start to noticed my breathing has changed XD i told him he was unfit. and then I did a couple of dances and he watched me. He said he liked watching me >.>

Then we had Oz inside who ate pea flakes, satsuma, strawberry then his straw house. So I took it as he was hungry and took him home. honestly. anyone would think i dont feed him!

now just doing my diary downstairs. but its 9:20pm so we might watch Inuyasha soon


tomorrow

working from home really not a lot else to say or do!


here is my dressing table, my second hand pine dresser i got off ebay for £52 and now its been totally transformed. People say its very me XD some hours has gone into it i tell ya!

Up til 4am, back at school tomorrow

 Evening


Well I was up til 4am -________- I kid you not. 4 sodding AM

Was well annoyed

it got to 12am and I got up for pain killers and stayed up til 1am and went back to bed

but still couldnt sleep so I got up and yeah just stayed up til 4am

its not like I can have hot chocolate or cereal ether T^T pure torture, those beloved foods gave me strength to get through the night. All I had last night was sultanas and buts T^T

So when the alarm went off at 7:30am I switched it off and went back to sleep

woke up at 8:30am with jack saying he had made me a orange fruit tea and had placed it beside me

when I got up he was like "jeez you look like death!"

I said "I feel it. Couldnt sleep. Was in too much pain. So I was up til 4am"

he said "why didnt you wake me?"

i just dont like waking him. I said "its not like you can take away my pain" he said "no but at least you wont be alone" i guess...

So i literally ate breakfast and went back to bed as I was just dead, my body needed to rest from so much exercise the day before.

I woke up at 10am and found jack and Oz in the living room so that was nice to wake up to,

I felt a bit more human anyway

I pushed my self to do my work out however I only did 3 out of the 4 videos then went for a very hot bath.

We had lunch then I did some reading

I have learned so much from that body book already. But everything I tell jack I have learned he already knows....how does he know so much >.>

We walked to the local corner shop as I wanted to buy jack a treat for going to fetch my dresser yesterday, I brought my dad some chocolate for also going yesterday. Brought my mum some flowers for being an excellent postal service as all my post goes to their house.

we came back and had Oz out who just did toilet everywhere -______-

he hasnt chosen to go much today as its sooo windy, his little ears cant get signal in this wind so it scares him and so he chooses to stay in his cage. 

I started dinner, we were having meatballs. So I made the meatballs and I made pasta sauce, cooked sweet potato for me and actual pasta for jack and it was really nice even tho i wasnt having the traditional meal of pasta and meatballs like jack i still enjoyed it as it was tasty.

got stuff ready for school tomorrow as i am back on baby sitting duty. I also have a meeting at 11am with head of science about my absence before xmas. you have to fill a form out if you are ever off sick even for just an afternoon off. and usually jack does it with me but for some reason head of science has asked to do it with me. which is odd as jack is my manager and i usually fill it out with him...so i am a little bit worried about it and i dont really want to talk about my illness ether.


This evening jack is doing an extra raid online with his friends so i said I would go over to my parents house for an hour, sit with Oz and then I dont need to drop him off in the morning. So I am about to go do that. Then might come back and do a bit of drawing, not sure yet. See how tired I am as I have had a headache all day.

tomorrow

in the morning I have got to put on my thai curry stew, something i have never done before or even got a recipe for, just totally winging it here! its half prepped so not too much to do in the morning.

then we have school and I am hopefully just painting display work

then we will come back and collect Ozwald then not sure after that. it will be wednesday so its a night jack doesnt game he spends time with me. but no clue what to actually do!

I have managed to win a few more joggers online and jumpers. Also a new charm for my earring as the acrylic cheese charm i always wear has lost its yellow colour its like a white cheese slice XD 

here is Oz the other night, making himself at home. It always feels weird not having him here in the evening but i know when I sit with him at mum's soon he will be happy

Acquired a welsh dresser

 Evening


Jack actually finished his online gaming at 9pm last night, so we watched a couple of episodes of Inuyasha then I said I was going to bed as I was just shattered

So we were in bed for 10:20pm he said he was gonna play on his switch which I didnt mind as I know it was early for him and I soon fell asleep

I woke up at 12:15am, a sweaty mess and needing a wee, but i thought "why is the room lit up"

jack was still playing.....

i said "jack is 12:15 you know" he said "is it actually?"

once again he gets fixated and obsessed on games. so i go for a wee and come back to find him still gaming so i said "are you not coming off it? we have work in the morning"

he said "let me just kill this boss" he had already been on it loads in the day! i just went to sleep

woke up at 7:30am and felt grouchy, tired and achy

but got up as we had a staff meeting and I was going for a walk with mia at 9am

typically it was raining -_____- so I got quite wet

we walked for an hour, the entire time spent moaning about men XD about our partners

I came in and had a brew then decided to do my exercises as I was aching and cold

I did those and went for a bath

then had my lunch watching digimon

after lunch I started ready  my body book and learned a lot to be honest and only read the first 2 chapters 

mum popped in after going to the dentist so we had a brew with her and Oz

I did some more reading when mum left then at 3:50pm I laid out on my bed as jack was on the sofa on his switch, i thought "10mins time i will take my tablets"

that was the last thought I had then the next thing i knew it was 5:30pm! we were suppose to be going out with my dad after 6pm to go collect a welsh dresser!!! i hadnt even got the oven on let alone dinner ready. I was sooo cross with jack, that he hadnt realised what the time was, to think to come see where i was after almost 2 hours, to not check to see where Oz was

so i made dinner and dad turned up i felt so wound up, i didnt go as i was of no use to anyone

i couldnt lift the dresser

so i stayed behind, i told mum how i was feeling and she popped over whilst i ate then I had a massive rant at her about jack and gaming and i felt better for it. we had Oz out with us then when i got the txt to say jack was on his way back, mum left. Jack came in and had his dinner with me and Oz

i didnt start up and argument as it was gone 7pm and i didnt want animosity at that time of night and the moment had passed, i had ranted to mum. besides i had already had a go at him when i came in from my walk! like i said for some reason i am a bit grouchy today. but he doesnt help matters, or help what so ever!

so after Oz went home Jack cleared the kitchen and i am up here doing my diary whilst he games

I am pleased with my welsh dresser tho. It looks good and dad says its a good buy as its like solid. really good quality. i prefer buying older pieces as they are made much better than the crap in IKEA or other cheap places.

I hope I sleep tonight seeing as I have had a long nap so late in the day T^T

I have decided to keep going with my exercise routine til the kids go back to school on 8th march as i wont have the energy for that routine AND school besides i will probably be bored of it by then.

Tomorrow

working from home so probably reading more of that book, do my exercises, maybe a walk

but in the evening jack is doing an extra raid on his online game, he asked if he could, and so i might take Oz over to mum's in the evening whilst jack games and then I wont have to drop Oz off in the morning before school.

here is my lad in his new cat tent

First time I havent slept in a while

 Evening


I couldnt sleep last night, I was in too much pain so by 1am I got up and stayed up til 2:30am, had more pain killers but no food to take them with so my stomach rotted. I went to bed but it took me almost an hour to actually get to sleep -_____- so when my alarm at 7:45am went off. I was not impressed or ready to start the day

but we got up and got out to go do our shopping.

We came back and had a cup of tea and a snack then I got on with my soup, my fish soup I have never made before or got a recipe for. I left it simmering whilst I did my exercises. 

The soup was really good! much to my surprise! so I had that for lunch after my bath.

I finished season 2 of Gameface.

I won the auction on a welsh dresser! for my craft room, got it for £62, got to collect it tho but its not far away however it does involve my dad as its almost 2m long and that aint gonna go in my car!

I went to bed as my eyes stung to keep them away I was so tired

when I woke up at 4pm, me and jack sat with Ozwald who was happy to come in

then we went for a walk but didnt get back til 6pm so I  told jack I wasnt sure on the chances he would be gaming on time for 7pm. so he was in a flap as its most important that he games on time and doesnt keep them waiting >.> however i have been waiting for 3 weeks for him to pay me back for his half of the bathroom and i mentioned it 3 times today we need to do it. I have asked him to hoover and he hasnt done that ether. So once again games take priority.

I had a half hour phone call with mum after dinner she had been with dad to get new glasses. cost dad £1500 for 2 glasses for both of them. Think he stumbled out rather than walked out the optitions XD

Then I did the washing up, which is jack's job but cus hes gaming til 10pm i didnt want the pots sitting there til 10pm not as theyre fish >.> stinks the house out. I made the dinner as usual. I do everything in this relationship

Im gonna chill out and have Oz out. Then I think I will go bed. Not sure I can be bothered to wait for jack at 10pm then watch inuyasha


Tomorrow

back at work! working from home tho. I have my body book to read and some art to plan.

seeing mia at 9am for a walk tho, highlight of my bloody week.
