Man flu, over work and lipstick on a pig....

I am still here, I am just completely overworked at the moment, so have been struggling to find time to do anything blog related. I am going to make a conscious effort to get back at this and the diet over the next couple of weeks. I've missed keeping up with everyone.

I will be making WI tonight, come hell or high water. I've not been for 2 weeks and I am fairly sure it's not going to be good. I've not been pointing, but I am trying to make good decisions. I am still getting my weekly Abel and Cole Veg box which has been a life saver as it's helped me be a bit more healthy than I would have perhaps been. Howver, I've been treating myself a bit too often.

I've also been struck down with the dreaded man flu the past couple of days, I feel fairly awful today, but I can't afford to take time off work, so I am shovelling Vitamin C down my neck like it's going out of fashion. Mind over matter, I will force myself into believing I feel fine.

I've also got the added stress of waiting for a hospital appointment, which seems to be taking forever to come through. Fingers crossed I get seen this side of Xmas. I need to go for Colposcopy (unpleasant) as I've had a recurrence of pre-cancerous cells that I thought had been sorted 8 years ago. Not a happy place, but at least I know they have been caught early, so all should be good.

Anyway, I digress. I had a lovely weekend, which seems like a lifetime ago now! Friday night, I went out with my bestest girlie friends for Dinner which involved a few glasses of wine and too much food. Saturday was spent shopping and then lazing around (and working) and then Sunday I met my friend for coffee and watched films with Matt (and worked). All very pleasant (apart from the work bit).

Last night I slept really badly as I couldn't breathe (I find it fairly essential, so an inability to do it makes life a little difficult). I thought I'd make a bit of an effort with my appearance this morning to try and cheer myself into feeling well. Not sure if a skirt really works on me, but I've gone curly, popped a bit of lip gloss on and I feel almost human (I'd describe it as putting lipstick on a pig, as that's how I feel today, but that seems overly harsh on myself!)

(Lace pencil skirt, Tesco, leopard print cardigan, Tesco, 100 Denier tights, Evans, Black and Gold pumps, Dune)

So, in short, not much changes here, I will report back on any mammoth gain later and I will make an effort to get back on track with the diet and the blogging. Normal service resumes as of now.
