11th April 2010

Morning..

I survived the late shift last night - I don't know how because I was so tired all night, I could easily have fallen asleep at my desk and really really wanted to.

When I got home I was looking at the picture of the beetle that I put on yesterdays post. We were in the garden having a BBQ and I usually put some rosemary on the BBQ because it smells so nice. I snapped a piece off and commented on how it was dying - we had a bad winter and it never recovered. Then I found the beetle on the piece I snapped off so I took some pictures of it. Last night I looked up what type of beetle it is and its a Rosemary Beetle!!! It kills Rosemary! And Sage and Theme which are the two plants I have next to the rosemary in the garden!! Anyway I don't wanna sound like some complete sad case talking about plants, but I am now not so happy about the lovely shiny beetle I found yesterday.

I have one last late shift then I have two days off work. I start at 2pm so if I want to go to the gym this morning I need to go in the next 20 minutes, or I wont have enough time. Dilemma!!! I could sit here and do nothing...or go to the gym....

Btw, I have to mention a game on my phone...its called Doodlebug and it is driving me mad. Its a silly bouncy bug thing that just bounces up levels and you have to avoid monsters and stuff. It is so addictive and annoying! The guy I work with has got the highest score, and I am not competitive or anything but I HAVE to beat his score, and I cant!!!

I have managed to stick to my diet for about 2-3 days which is an achievement for me these days...I hope I can keep it up, it would help me if I go to the gym...

A couple of school friends contacted me via facebook...we were quite good friends years ago when we were about 14-15 years old. Its weird as we all have children that age or older now and our lives have all gone in different directions, but I still really want reconnect with them and find out all about them. Strange how a couple of years of friendship during your life can stay with you for so long. Does that make sense?

anyway...to gym or not to gym that is the question...
