This is a first….

Apparently, if all goes well and the wind is blowing in the right direction, I shall be posting this directly from MS Word.

I recently started subscribing to the Office app having been away in the land of free WP apps for some years.

There’s a one off logging in process which didn’t stretch my brain too much and then you get a modified Word page to fill in.

Hope it works because I prefer Word to the “New Page” on WP. You go “whole screen” straight away and can see more of your writing.

See if it works, eh?

 

My other blog event was discovering that someone in the family has started to read everything I write.

I’m not really that bothered because, as the label says, I write what I want and if you don’t like it, don’t read it.

 

My health has been appalling recently. I took some time off work and immediately fell ill with a bug which went through my head, sinuses and chest like a freight train. Returning to work early only served to lay me up for another couple of days. The bug seems to have departed, fingers crossed.

 

It’s with huge delight that I let you all in on my, or I should say “our”, weight loss.

Gill and I are both a bit podgy and decided at the beginning of October to do something about it.

My dieting philosophy has always been a simple one.

Eat Less, Do More.

Eating less refers to sugars, fats and evening snacks of any sort.

Doing more is obviously about getting off one’s bum and getting out there.

We both now fast after 7pm and Gill has started walking to town and back.

My job means way more than 10,000 steps on each shift so that’s the physical side taken care of.

The fridge is full of fruit and we’ve been finding different ways to cook chicken too.

Takeaways have stopped and Gill has started at Slimming World in a local church hall.

We’ve both lost a half a stone (7lbs) and are cheerful about continuing.

 

We’ve been tied up with paperwork and contractors arranging to turn Ashley’s bathroom into a wet room.

As he gets bigger it is harder to move him into the bath and he refuses the hoist now.

It’s only a week’s work but you’d think they were planning a hospital wing!

 

We’re off to a friend’s 18th tonight. Me and Ash won’t stay long and I will endeavour to stay away from the buffet.

Well maybe just one éclair…..
