I had a visit today from my Mum, Dad and my nephew Ben. Now my nephew is no ordinary nephew, he loves to eat shoes, plants, cotton wool and wall paper paste. Ben is my brothers 6 month old black lab puppy. He is handsome but so much work! below is a picture of him 3 months ago and yesterday! they grow up so fast..sigh!

I have lost 5.5lbs yay! We had a weigh in in work. I do think its probably all the tottering about on crutches that has caused all this loss. They are also a good cure for bingo wings!

I am losing the will to live today. I cannot leave my flat as there are stairs and its too much hassle, and I cannot stuff my face as I am determined to stick to WW. This morning I have been glued to MTV and pimp my ride! This is such a cool program.

I had a little accident today! I fell and dislocated my patella and fractured a piece of my tibia. I have to be in plaster for 4 wks! so I am going to have such a sucky birthday! They had to give me gas and air to move me...that was quite an experience it was like drinking an infinite amount of smirnoff. I had a choice of 8 different colours for my plaster, so I chose purple. My cast weighs 7lbs so I have gained 7lbs!

Most Sadly I really should not drink any alcohol as they have given me some pretty trippy anti-inflammatory tablets! So that's a sober 4 weeks!

I had a day off today, I have discovered a fantastic band today called The Old Crow Medicine Show. They are an old fashioned Bluegrass/Country band ( I swear I am morphing into my dad in my old age! ) Their song Wagon Wheel is a proper foot stomping country anthem!

Feel I am properly back to work now. I smugly sat amongst my colleagues with my wholemeal beef pitta bread.
I bought a fantastic film today called ELF. It stars Will Ferrel who stars as a 6ft 3 Elf!
Does it get any funnier than that!

Another film that everyone should watch is Mannequin which is in my 80's film section and it has Andrew McCarthy in it! ( he is so lovely ) it is on Paramount Comedy at 10.30pm on Sunday the 16th of January.

I would like to thank the gods that be..and not because its a Sunday but because somebody out there invented GHD straightners My hair usually resembles a ginger Wurzel Gummage. But with the GHD straightners my locks are transformed into sleek bint tresses! I also found a fab mat to stop the hair tool of heaven from scorching a hole into your shag pile! ( so not a good look for your boudoir bints).

Yay its 1 month until my birthday! I have spent this day, not drinking ( how strange! ) And tidying my wardrobe. I was ruthless! I felt like Trinny and Suzannah rolled into one evil wardrobe wench. I have managed to fill a black bag with fashion disasters to take down to Tenovus. ( Welsh Charidee shop )
