Moving on



Well what a week since my birthday, I actually managed to loose a lb at weight watchers, manage a wonderful 8 mile hike around Mount tam, Start work - and it wasnt too bad, attend a friends 40th Birthday in her wonderful remodeled her house. Swam, playdates and continued Karate,

It has been a busy week, our shipping in is California but still going through Customs and aparently we get charged storage if it isnt through and on it's way to us by Monday which seems harsh as we arenot the ones holding it up,

Today is Easter Sunday so Happy Easter to you all, I got the day off work as the patient ratio is down, so a bonus day off - just dont get paid, Instead I get to spend time with my boys, maybe a swim again.  Simon is having a long lie today as he is traveling again this week and I think the early mornings every day get hard, so I am being Kind to him.

Our Wii is getting lots of use, with our new games EA Playground and Mario Galaxy, 

Nathaniel celebrated St Patrick's day and Easter at his pre school this week and he really enjoys it there,

So thats all for now and I hope our stuff arrives so, I am kind of bored of waiting for it now could really use a pair of scissors and a sharp knife.

all the pictures today are from my hike

37 Years Old

Today i am 37, and to me a birthday is always worth celebrating,

It was a very slow start as both Simon and nathaniel wouldnt wake up so I was delayed in opening my cards and presents,

I was so lucky to get some lovely gifts as well as some beautiful cards.

Phone calls and good wishes came flying in and my day had really started.

A lunch at In-n-out burger and then Karate lesson was finished with a wonderful meal at PF Changs, my tummy is so full I dont think I can lie down but there is still space for a glass of wine,

I can go to bed now as I know i am further through my new game, Mario Galexy for the wii, than Nathaniel is - but it is tricky, I dont think it will be long till he is better than me, so I better limit his time on the machine.

Tomorrow a hike in Mount tam and a nice lunch with a friend

when will i rest!!

Happy birthday to ME

wow

ok so 2 weeks has passed since my last vent/post,

So how are things, well apart from getting sick, things are better,

I still am a little tired but who cares, I am trying to make lists of things to do, who to call so i can be prepared.

I am really looking forward to starting work hopefully on Monday, I have done a ton of swimming and running and was able to run 5 miles one saturday - not a brilliant time but I completed it and wasnt worse for wear, my leg stood up well.

Nathaniel just loves his preschool which is a big relief to me and he is all registered for kindergarten in the fall.

Also starting to try and figure out about going back to the UK in the summer usual stuff, dates/cost/etc etc

Dad once again has ben tested but thankfully is making improvements - his birthday is on Tuesday.

Tomorrow is mine 37 years old, that is a big number but luckily I feel in good nick for that age,

Hopefully Simon will take me out for a nice dinner and I am going on a hike on friday.

I finally am buckling down and focusing on weight watchers, still need to see the results but my clothes are beginning to have a little more room in them,

The sun shine really makes such a difference to my life, this really is a beautiful part of the world
