Did not do well with the eating yesterday!
b/fast - toast, earl grey
lunch/dinner - went to chip shop had chips (sorry fries!!) with cheese & mayo - a BIG portion as i had not had any dinner! followed by cherry pie with ice cream...& no none of it was low carb versions!!! I love cherry pie & had resisted buying it for weeks but gave in yesterday! Did have water with it Just goes to show you shouldnt shop when your hungry!!
Today
b/fast - toast, earl grey
lunch - mexican chk salad, earl grey
dinner - low carb spag bol,
The cherry pie is still in the fridge! luckily we ate late & it was filling
The guilt of cherry pie sent me to the gym tonight - 30 mins treadmill &
30 mins x trainer.
Wow my countdown is wizzing down now
The shootings in penslyvania (sorry not sure how to spell it) made the news over here, it is so sad & shocking, my thoughts are with the families tonight.

Can't wait to see pics when you get back!

Great job on using cherry pie guilt to go to the gym. Cherry pie is one of my most favorites too. Yum!

The school shootings have been awful. 3 in the last week. I just want to hold my babies close and give them a hug "just because".

Congrats on the new car and you are getting so close to your trip. Have you started packing yet?

Have a great rest of the week!

Your trip is so close! The next couple weeks are going to fly by. I have to admit, I am a little freaked out by the driving over here! My boss lived here for 5 years, so he is used to the narrow roads and of course driving on the left side. Not me! I'm just glad I am not the one that has to drive!

Great job getting those workouts in!

So you got moved to a different hotel at WDW? Your food for the day sounds really good. Great job holding it all together as it gets up and things are getting frantic! Two weeks from now you'll be headed out!

 

[toystoryduo]

Hi Tracey~

Just two weeks now! I bet as each day goes by you are getting more and more excited! I hope you will do a trip report with pictures when you come back.

I'm glad to hear that you found a car. It sounds like everything is coming together for your wedding and your honeymoon.

Hope you have a great day! Keep up the good work!

HI Tracey,

Keep up the great work.....congrats on the no gain....

[lovinaz]

How was your party? I bet you had a blast. Don't worry about not posting, sometimes life gets in the way! We all know you are SUPER busy getting everything ready for your awesome trip!

 

[CACruisin']

I hope you had a great time at your party and the "recovery" won't be too bad. Don't worry about the journals. you are super busy with an international trip, and you are getting married in just a few weeks!!!

Have a great weekend!

 

[Amy&Dan]

Hi Tracey, I hope your party was fun (and I am betting it was )! You are doing so well, holding your own is a huge accomplishment given the stress and special occasions you are going through. Cherry pie, yum and worth every calorie! And don't even worry about journals, we know you love us. And for that matter you have been around quite regularly so you are being the ulitimate WISHER!

 

[SunFloridaDisney]

Hope the party was fun, and hope your preparations for trip/wedding are going well!!

Post when you can, looking forward to pics some time in the future!

 

[toystoryduo]

[traceycooper]

Hello!!!
Party was great, but i was soooo ill yesterday
I told my friend i didnt want to get too drunk as i had a lot to do on Saturday, but they made me drink 6 shots!!!!! I dont do shots, so you can imagine the state i was in!! They made me wear a flashing tiara & vail that said 'bride to be' & a gold sash & badge. We went to a Greek restaurant there was a belly dancer & i thought oh no there gonna make me dance - but they didnt (phew) Then the waiters got us up dancing & we went all over the restaurant & outside - 3 times!!!
Food lovely, had wine too on top of shots!! They gave me balloons & a souvenier plate with 'congratulations Tracey' written on it.
Towards the end of the evening a friend & i decided to sing disney songs...at the top of our voices, i even stood up & waved my arms around to the little mermaids 'part of your world' (my favourite) That didnt come back to me till late yesterday afternoon!!!
On the way home i threw everything up (into a bag!)
Saturday - felt terrible, woke up at 6am (didnt get intill 1am) had to carry on though with so much to do, left home at 9am & went to pick Garys ring up, went to bank & GOT TICKETS
Then caught train into Nottingham city, Gary went to watch a football match Leanne & i had lunch, picked up her bridesmaid dress, then met my mum & dad at the theatre, they took leanne to watch 'Joseph & his technicolour dreamcoat' i window shopped then met Gary 30 mins later, went for a drink on the canal (cola!!), met mum, dad & leanne at train station caught 4.30pm train home, collapsed on bed!
Went back out at 6.45pm as we had arranged to visit my brother & go round to friends to watch their florida video, friend bought bottle of champagne to celebrate our upcoming marriage, managed to force a teaspoon full past my lips!
Got home at 11.30pm, collapsed into bed!
Today - woke up at 8am in agony, TOM appeared but the pains were the worst i can ever remember, it brought me to tears! Just starting to feel human now!
STARTED TO PACK
So thats my very busy & eventful weekend, one more weekend left then i will be in the sunshine with mickey
Hope everone has had a good weekend, & thanks for being so understanding about journals
