Taz's diary - Need to do this!

[Gemstone]

YAY! Well done Tazzy Girl - I reckon you'll be bang on target for your birthday xxx

 

[Gemstone]

.......So how did your first "proper" day back go x

 

[Taz]

My first 'proper' day was short as I had physio at lunch time and had to leave early. It was also very easy as I was spare and didn't have any work to do! Tomorrow will be my first full day out on my own

 

[Gemstone]

Hope you enjoy your day Taz - looking forward to seeing you and Mr Taz later x

 

[Taz]

Well my first full and proper day at work went well. It was a long day but evenly paced so not too bad. I think I am settled back into the groove now, it was easier to slip back into it than I thought it would be!

 

[Gemstone]

Brilliant Taz - well done x

 

[Taz]

Weight going down. Activity levels going up. No one reads this so not much point in writing anything else!

 

[Gemstone]

I know what you're saying Taz but keep writing, I'm reading. I expect you've noticed my diary is a little lonely too x

 

[Taz]

​Yes it seems we are the only ones left here!

 

[Gemstone]

There's no-one here but us sheep baaaaa......... x

 

[Taz]

Baaaaaa indeed!

I STS this week but I think I know why. 5 weeks til my birthday and my first mini goal and 8lb still to go. So that means I need at least 3 weeks to be 2lb losses

 

[Gemstone]

Keep motivated Taz - you WILL do it x

 

[Gemstone]

Hi Taz - hope you're having a good weekend x

 

[Taz]

I worked all weekend Gem! But it wasn't a particularly taxing weekend at work so it was ok

 

[Gemstone]

I'm glad work is going well Taz x

 

[Taz]

OMG!!! I lost 4lb this week!!! I was aiming for 3lb after last weeks STS but 4lb is just awesome! That means with 4 weeks til my birthday and my first mini goal I have just 4lb to lose to hit that goal

Did I mention that I have signed up for this years Channel Swim Challenge? Well I have and it starts in September so I'm officially 'In training' for it. I have 12 weeks to swim 22 miles which I think, from memory, is 1416 lengths. So far I have managed to get my sets up from 10 to 20 and I have got 4 sets of 20 done in 58 minutes (80 lengths). Today I am going to go for 5 sets (100 lengths). Once I can do that quite easily I'm ready to go and will be able to get the Challenge done in 14 visits

In other news, I will finally be getting my new kitchen! We are scheduled for September, waiting for confirmation of the actual date. There are a few things to take care of before that happens, one of which being that the kitchen will need some plastering work done. I'm thinking that in the next couple of months we can empty the wall cupboards and actually get them taken down so we can see exactly what state the wall is in so there are no surprises later on. We know a good plasterer who sorted out our walls when we had the bedroom done so we have no worries there I will have to wait on the survey to see if they will move the sockets or if I need to get our electrician back in to move them into new positions. It's all go once again in the Tazzy household, exciting stuff!

Work is going really well. I'm getting a lot of overtime coming my way so the earning is back up

 

[Gemstone]

Well done Tazzy - 4lb is AWESOME - and the kitchen will be fabby x

 

[Taz]

Another lb off this week, leaving me with 3 weeks and 3lb to go for my first mini goal. I think that is totally do-able

Kitchen will be fab, I can't wait!

 

[Gemstone]

Brilliant Taz - on goal - and possibly more. The kitchen will indeed be fab x
