Reasons to be cheerful

So I'm back in the weightloss zone, but struggling slightly with my paltry 18 points. Some days slightly over some days slightly under, so over the course of the week it evens itself out. That said I have been back attending classes since 16th January and have had 2 losses totalling 3.5lbs. Not startling, but steady and consistent and better than gaining!!

So, keeping with the positive vibe, I have decided to list the anticipated highlights of the next couple of months.

1. I am going to be an Auntie for the very first time. My niece should be making her arrival anytime between end of Feb and 10th of March.
2. My sister - responsible for making me said Auntie - lives in Belgium. That means I will be taking a week off work to go visit her, my brother-in-law and most importantly, my niece - yay!
3. I will be earning lots of activity points by kidnapping the niece and going for nice long walks pushing a pram in the Belgian countryside.
4. I have a semi-posh dinner/dance event happening in March. It's all of my oldest and best friends and their other halves, so excellent company and a chance to put on the gladrags.

So lots of lovely things are happening, and on top of my reasons to be cheerful, I have decided I need a small "To-Do" list. I am a bit of a procrastinator by nature, so I intend to get my finger out on the following:

1. Make a donation to the DEC, for Haiti
2. Bag up the too big for me clothes that have been heaped in the spare room since October last year (yeah really, talk about out of sight out of mind) and get them to the PDSA charity shop.
3. Get the house decorated. I mean we're only talking emulsion and a bit of glossing here, it's not like I have to renovate, but the thought of spending precious weekends that way is off-putting to say the least.

Yup.....................
