The past week has been reasonable not too many cravings. We had a few bbq's and strangely enough it was then that I missed smoking the most. I am putting it down to the fact that I was relaxed and with a glass ( or two!) of wine in me I noticed I missed them. But just reminding myself how much I have saved has kept me on the straight and narrow.
The fact my assignment is in has taken a lot off my mind and Jim and I were able to go away for the day on Sunday. A very chilled relaxing day taking in some breath taking scenery and topped off with a meal out.
Today however has been a sad one. Paul ( my husband who died 7 years ago) would have been 54 and he loved birthdays and so it was a day for reminiscing and needing my family about me. My eldest rang first thing this morning to see how I was doing and to remind me she loved me. On arriving at the grave to leave a dozen red roses I smiled on seeing a gorgeous mug with Granddad on it and some lovely flowers in it from my youngest daughter and her son. A few tears shed but a lot of nice memories also came to the forefront. Some time spent with my youngest later in the day and the kind words from friends helped make the day a bit more bearable.
I really wanted a cuddle from my grandson ( who carries his grandad's name) but he had other plans and slept right through my visit. thankfully I saw him later and he was full of his usual smiles and giggles which never fails to warm my heart.
The next thing to tackle is some weight loss and my daughter and I are joining Weight Watchers on Monday . Some would say don't do two major things at once...but in for a penny......
