Not quite the day I expected.

Today has been a bit of a mixed bag, I can't say it was a good day, or a bad day either because it was really a mix of both. I woke up this morning at a reasonable hour and had the best sleep I'd had in a very long time. Then I get up and immediately my daughter's decide they're going to throttle each other and breakfast becomes yet again, a war zone!

They leave for school and I feel like I cannot be bothered going out and exercising, but I do, I kick my butt and get outside. I leave the house and  power half way down the road and with freezing nips decide to stop and pull on a warm top. I finally make it to town and against a huge head wind which blew my hair in all sorts of directions. Then whilst walking past a cafe down town I see a table of women dripping in label clothing and gold. One of them looks at me directly and says to her friends "oh disgraceful". I couldn't believe my ears! and before I knew what was happening I heard myself say "I heard you shit head!", yes, I had forgotten to switch on my be nice filter, and then I flicked her the bird, oh boy! Thing is, I am sick of these "career cafe" women who do nothing all day because they are married or dating some rich businessman (or woman) who is supporting them. I don't like confrontation and usually the thought of saying something back would fill me with fear, but somewhere deep inside me a fuse had been lit and it had to go!

After that annoyance I went home had a shower and came back to town as I thought it was high time that I try clothes on as mine are all staring to hang off me. I stood at the racks and grabbed a size 18 (US16) jeans and size 20 (US18) top, I thought this would be really funny since when I started this journey, I was a size 26 (US24) top and 24 (US22) jeans. I go into the changing room and OMG the top fits! the jeans, I could get them on but not do them up so it won't be long until those jeans will fit me! The funny thing is, I still see myself as that really big woman that started this journey and it's going to take a little getting used to looking at the shrinking me.

So as you can see, today was definitely a mixed bag of events :)
