Day 76 - Tuesday, 2nd December 2008

Yey!! It's December, and officially, I can start jumping around like a 5 year old child for the next 22 days! OK, so I can't partake in the festive yummies, but for the last few weeks, I have been trying vey vey hard to think of other things to be excited for about Christmas and it seems to have worked because I am looking forward to this Christmas much more than I can remember being in previous years. Perhaps I'm starting to realise what it's all about. I mean, having the family round (those that get along anyway!) and sitting by the fire and watching soppy films. I have decided that in order for me to not think about the Christmas Dinner, on the actual day itself, I am buying a jigsaw. Yes it may seem extraordinarily sad, and it sure as hell does sweet f.a. for my rock chick image, but having spent bloody hours doing one the other week (I will not be beaten by a stupid bit of cardboard!) I figure at least it will keep me occupied.

And, I am also hoping that my lovely friends give me fun things for Christmas. Anything to kill the couple of hours when everyone is eating.

Next weigh in is tomorrow and I can't believe how fast this week has gone, it has litterally flown by. Hopefully by next weeks weigh in, I will have possession of all of the presents that I have bought and can start wrapping - if I can ever find any black gift wrap!! Speaking of next week's weigh in, it's week 13 next week. And I get my "after" picture done. Unfortunately I can't stay for my councelling session cus I am going to see Black Stone Cherry! So I will be spending the evening jumping around in a mosh pit. Yey! But, fear not, I have learnt my lesson about the Carling Academy. I have purchased of some ear plugs so I don't have three days of deafness afterwards!!! I have a feeling that December will fly by!
