Yaay me!

Right on track today, had a seeded bagel with cucumber this morning with a glass of mango and passion fruit smoothie, and my coffee of course! Lunch was a wholemeal roll with cucumber again, a half a banana and a pint of water ( boring lunch but it was handy) and for early dinner me and the baby both had lemon and herbs marinated grilled chicken with steamed carrots and broccoli. Haven't been snacking on anything today which is excellent, after my two hour aerobics workout I am now how ever enjoying a glass of white wine. 

Driving lesson went pretty good today, got to drive off from home and all the way back, including that horrible tunnel bit where yuo can't see any cars coming from the right cos there's not even a mirror to guide you. Clutch control is getting a lot better now, not lifting my whole foot off the clutch anymore which makes the whole deal a lot sweeter. Another thing I need ot work on is the handbreak, I'm not pushing it to the floor which makes slow starts on the trafficlights, need to work on that. Next week will have a double lesson as an hour just isn't long enough to get any real work done. Just when you get into it it's time to drive back home, so from now on will do two hours at a time. Hopefully that will speed up the process and help me get my head around it all.

Another thing that was putting me off today was that the baby took an awful fall off the couch just before I was due to leave for my lesson. I shat myself thinking she broke her neck. I was reading a magazine on the couch and she kept jumping on me and crawling on top of me, and all of a sudden she was off the couch and on her head on the floor with the rest of her body still hanging off the couch! It was horrible. She cried straight away and all her bits were still attached and nothing seemed broken and in a few moments she was back giggling, although she did have a wee bump on her forehead. I felt so bad. She's had falls before and bumps and bruces, but it still doesn't get any easier to see her take a fall like that.

Tomorrow will do an hour and a half at the gym. Have to stay in all day tomorrow as our gas meter is getting exchanged. Hopefully that will be early in the morning and finished quickly so don't have to waste the day indoors. Won't be holding my breathe for that tho.
