As I sit here and write this my kids are now safely tucked up in bed and hubby is swearing at the latest Tomb Raider game on the playstation. He is an addict, he loves his playstation, just as much as the kids love their gameboys. I cannot see what is so fascinating in them myself and all talk of them bore me silly, but then again i suppose talking about cross stiching probably bores them just as much!
So I am sitting here, surfing the net for nothing in particular instead of doing what I should be doing - exercise. Yes it is that horrible word. Don't get me wrong, when I can be arsed to do it I quite enjoy it but at the moment all motivation is gone. i do not know why. Perhaps it is because motivation for anything has disappeared out of the window, particularly for dieting. Now food I can take or leave depending on what mood I am in, and for the most part I eat quite healthily but tend to eat too much. Then the guilt gene sets in and a viscious circle starts. On top of it all I had a fantastic weekend away with the Girls from work, in Glasgow, where we shopped, ate and drank and I don't think I have got out of that mode. In fact I am feeling very tired (lack of sleep) and very emotional and have no idea why I should be feeling like this. I keep blaming it on the weather, I need the sunshine!
Oh and that is another thing - can someone please tell me why oh why are we facing a drought when the water companies could have solved most of their water problems by repairing or replacing the leaking pipes that carry our water? Afterall it isn't as though they didn't know about this, we went through this in the 70's you would think they would have done something about it by now. So ok that doesn't solve the problem with the reservoirs running dry, but it would solve the waste of water we have at the moment surely? Or am I in fantasy land again. I suppose all this rain we have had over the last couple of days is the wrong sort as well. Ah well off soapbox now.
