rocky start

well.... last night dan and i went down to the pub for '1' beer as our ex skipper arrived in the arvo as he's going to be driving our work boat back to perth - yeah right...1 beer... it ended up being a BIG night!

pete arrived at 5.30 this morning to get me... i had slept in! eek i ran around like a headless chook trying to get organised then hit the road.... and as i didn't have time to have a shower i forgot my shower bag.... yep... it contained all the important stuff.... hair/tooth brushes, make-up, cleansers, jewellery etc etc etc i didnt realise until we were 2 hours out of town BUGGER! i called dan to try and organise for him to courier it to perth and he told me just to buy all new stuff YAY..! so it hasnt worked out too bad anyway as i was going to buy more make-up and new hair brush anyway, and the incidentals like my toothbrush and stuff i would of had to of bought eventually, so im looking on the positive... however my big round brush is not very good for unmatting my hair!

BONUS was unpacking and i found my make-up - i must have switched bags at some time WOOHOO am still mega bummed about not having my skin care, had to go and buy and entire range of cheap stuff tonight to get me through... never mind... extra stuff is always handy!

and you guessed it, aS i was out boozing i didnt have time to prepare meals did i?~ so ended up eating crap on the way down and have had KFC for tea - and let me tell u - my body doesnt like the stuff i feel all stuffed up - so am bloated and a bit mad at myslef becasue i know BETTER! my eats weren't evil until dinner tonight - i didnt snack on crap and i tried to make BETTER choices (weren't ideal - but still better than some of the 'wants' my mind was trying to persuade me to buy - ie choc muffins and all that homecooked yummy stuff) i wanted wok in a box for tea - my lazy ass boss didnt want to get out of the car - and after the long drive i just gave in - i got to the point where i was like who cares, i will sin and reprive myself tomorrow! So, that's KFC down....and am thankful we have no take away where i live - i certainly dont miss the stuff and was suprised at how little i enjoyed it and at how much more i really enjoy home cooked meals now.

i came prepared with food for my hols... powders bars and oats etc, so breakfast will be easy, but i havent been able to buy any of the stuff i need for snacks yet, so i am hoping pete will take me food shopping first thing in the morning so i can start planning my snacks.

so that's me... sittin back with my little pitch fork and my halo skewiff...

the next few days are going to be awkward and hard, but it should be easier once i have gottn in to a routing. am hopefully catching up with a really good friend tomorrow night and am hanging to go to the movies, i haven't seen a movie at a cinema since.... well its been that long i cant remember!

apart from my devilish acts am feeling good, the no smoking is going well and i am not beating myself up anymore. I have learned to just do the best with what i've got - its too late to change things that have already hapenned i just have to keep moving forward!

have a gr8 weekend everyone!

Oooh I hate it when you eat stuff that you know you shouldnt, and then end up not enjoying it anyway! My boyfriend has a thing for KFC, but its so greasy it always makes me feel sick afterwards!

Have fun in Perth!

hey there Kat,

i gotta try the "oh shit, i forgot my bag of make-up etc" trick and see if i'm allowed to buy somemore hehe.

i agree with you on the KFC....we all know that we feel gross after eating it, yet we still do (i guess it doesn't help that they've got the best chips!)

Good work on not smoking...keep it up...you'll feel stax better for it!

going away often tests our resolve, especially when meeting up with old friends - and sometimes it takes eating something bad or slipping into an old habit to realise that is no longer a part of who we are and what we do. I think you aren't doing badly. Remember you also have to live so don't beat yourself up about it - you're on hols! Rach xx
