I am thankful for the absolutely beautiful weather we are having - it's been hard to believe that winter has come and gone already given that we have been walking around in shorts and T-shirts in August. The one worrying thing is that if it is this warm in August / September, what is it going to be like in January / February ?
I am thankful for the hard work that I have put in with my eating and exercise as I am starting to see these kilos move. A doesn't say much about my weight, but the other night when I was getting ready to go to a bloggers dinner, he looked at me and said "How much weight have you actually lost ?" and when I asked him why he was asking, he said "Because I can see a difference in how you look." Well that definitely put a spring in my step and helped me walk with my head just a little bit higher instead of trying to shrink into myself and make myself as small as possible.
I am thankful for the lovely evening that I had with Josefa, Aroha, Emily, Kathy and Renee on Tuesday night. There was lots of laughing and lots of talking and I had a really good evening. I was very nervous about going, but once we were chatting away, I wondered why I had been so nervous. Everyone was so friendly and it was lovely to get to meet the faces behind some of the blogs I read.
I am thankful that it is Thursday which means that the weekend is just around the corner. I don't want to wish my life away, but I am hanging out for the weekend !!!

It seems as though the great weather is a common theme to be thankful for. Sounds like how I would be before a dinner with people I've never met, but then afterwards you realise you should have never been nervous in the first place!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it strange because I sort of feel like I know them but I don't ! This is exactly how I am feeling about ProBlogger next week !!!!!!!!!
DeleteHave a great weekend !

ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you are making progress with you weight, I know you've been feeling discouraged so this was a great boost!
Thanks Janet - it certainly is a good boost to finally see those kilos going the right way.
DeleteHave the best weekend !

How I envy you blogging buddies getting together - I so wish I can get the chance to meet you one day! And I have the same concerns about the weather - it honestly felt like summer here today, what is it going to be like in January???
ReplyDeleteOh Kirsty - I would love to meet you too - one day !!!!

ReplyDeleteThe weather has been nuts here too, although apparently we are in for a wet spring with below average temps, nuts!!
