So way back in our first autumn here, I shared the traumatic experience we had of putting together an IKEA "wardrobe", (also know as piece of s*** cardboard box).   Well I got the bright idea the other day to repaint Grace's room which unfortunately entails moving said wardrobe.  We had forgotten that we'd screwed it into the wall to keep the crappy thing upright.  The next time it's moved it will go out the window and into the trash.  GP was able to patch the hole...

Our diets are going well in that we've lost weight.  But I had my annual blood tests done this past week and after almost a month of bread and water I expected everything to come back marked E for excellent.  Nooooo.  My flipping cholesterol has gone up even higher!  I don't even remember what cheese tastes like for crying out loud!  Depression set in.  I drank 2 glasses of forbidden wine.  Guilt set in.  I went to bed.

So now on top of dieting I'm increasing my exercise.  I'll be doing Cross Fit twice a week at school and Yoga once.  I had my first Cross Fit class today.  I do not like it.  It is painful and difficult and I am at least 15 years older than everyone else in the class.  Plus the instructor is just too damned skinny.  I don't trust people with so little body fat.  I miss Pilates.....

All for now, xxoo me
