On to me. I have well and truely got back into my scrapbooking since last year. I now go to regular crop nights once a month at my local scrapbook shop where a regular group of fellow scrappers get together and chat, joke and have a general good time while completing layouts. It has become a great outlet for me to have a regular get together with others outside of home. I have just completed a new layout for the shop's monthly competition but am yet to take a picture of it so will upload it tomorrow.
Mentally, the whole weight thing isn't doing wonders for me at the moment. My self esteem is at an all time low. I am copping regular comments from my inlaws regarding my size (there are other issues there too that I won't go into right now) and I have had to go out and by all new clothes because all my ones from last year don't fit anymore.
I finally decided back in March to do something for myself. I had always promised myself that once I had got to my goal weight I would get the unicorn tattoo that I always wanted. Well back in March I decided that it was going to be a long time before I got there and to stuff everyone else and go and get it anyhow. I didn't even tell Pete until after I got it done(there were consequences from that also). Anyhoo, it is all been and gone now. I don't have a picture of it now that it has all settled but I do have one that my sister took of it after I got it done:
It is on my left hand shoulder.
So there is a brief summary of where I am at the moment. I have signed up for the lovely Pauline's spring challenge to try and kickstart my weightloss although I am still recovering from a sprained ankle that I got at the beginning of June. Today is my second day without an ankle brace, so fingers crossed I might be able to start some gentle walking soon.
Better log off, the thunder has started again and I want to get this saved before the power dies.
Until later
