'Putting On My Daytime Eyes ...

A good enough disguise until I get some sleep'
(Bic Runga - Get Some Sleep)

I can't sleep. I feel so awake. It is blowing a gale outside, and raining and today we even had snow falling (but not settling). The fire is going beside me and everyone else is asleep. This is Nancy time and I am relishing it. But I should be going to bed soon - work tomorrow.

I never mention my work not because I hate it (because I don't) but just that really it is just a job and it probably doesn't make for exciting reading! I work for a small company in town that is in the communications business. I am currently working on an inbound queue for a power company. Really only started on this a couple of months ago so am the 'new kid' there. For some reason my team leader has put me into a new position very quickly so I will be multi tasked and be able to do many jobs in that are (which is good for me). I have the feeling that the other people who have been there a lot longer than I have are resenting me for this which is a bit of a worry. So I am currently in training at work and there is so much to learn and so much to remember. My brain hurts and I have information coming out of my ears! I don't have much time to learn and I will be flying solo at the end of this week. I hope I don't fuck up! (be positive Nancy!)

I thought I was so clever this morning - I parked my car up hill from work (about 10 minutes away) so on the way home I would have to walk up a steepish hill. It snowed on the way back to the car! Oh yes it did! I live near the coast and I don't expect snow! C2 was at tai kwon do so while I finish work at 6 I go for a walk until 7.30 when I pick him up (saves me driving home and then going to pick him up again - we live 15 minutes from town). Usually I do really enjoy my walks but the weather was so appalling I considered driving home. One word kept me walking tonight.. bikini! Damn thing hate it already! I walked up and down the main street (under the cover of the shops) for an hour. In the end I did really enjoy it and was so pleased I did it.

Round up for the day:

1) walk 1 hour DONE + some! 1 hour and 35 minutes to be exact! Yay!
2) weights DONE
3) breakfast DONE - only a banana but breakfast all the same!
4) track DONE I am so enjoying the tracking business lately
5) eat 3 meals only DONE
6) 3 servings DONE
7) drink 2 pump bottles water DONE
8) no weighing NOT DONE
9) no coke/alcohol DONE
10) update journal, be positive DONE

Pleased with that. I ate my 3 servings of fruit and vegetables! I am so proud. Had a piece of chicken schnitzel tonight and .. believe it or not .... the rest of the plate was filled with carrots, cauliflower and brocoli (with a wee bit of cheese sauce). I am not a big cauli/broc fan but it was delicious. At the start of the year I would have had a huge plate of chips with chicken and no vegetables. Funny how things change.

I am off to read in bed ... hopefully BF has warmed the bed up! It is bloody freezing here tonight! Ugh! Fingers crossed for a nice morning tomorrow so Fat Nancy can shake her arse and walk (with a $100 note M!)

Cyas :o)
