Day 107 – Dinner & Martini’s

Managed to get a sleep in this morning, which was just magical. I love Saturdays like this when the house is spotless and I don’t have to vacuum and dust. I’m feeling relaxed and its simply a gorgeous day outside.

I read the papers and caught up on all the news and then went for a little run. It was only a little one and I know that I promised Mr. Wonderful Surgeon I would stop all forms of exercise but it was such a beautiful day I couldn’t resist. The first thing I noticed was that my endurance has almost disappeared. I couldn’t get my pace right either and almost tripped over my own feet. It was weird. I only managed 10 minutes of actual running and then did a fast stroll for 20 minutes. I am not that worried, as soon I will get back to my original level.

I then caught up for a lunch and coffee with my bestie V and a spot of shopping. I had a close call when I decided to eat some fries from KFC, yeah, yeah I hear you, lunch is not very nutritional but it was the only soft thing available. My restriction is so damn tight at the moment that I am struggling with everything. I managed (as I was counting) 10 fries only and that was more than enough but one of them was a bit on the crunchy side and it felt like it was scraping itself against my top tummy and through the band. I grabbed the table with both hands and held my breath and thankfully it slid through. We had a few laughs and we organized going away for a couple of days since our plans to New Zealand had fallen through due to my lung situation my physician had demanded that we post pone me getting on a plane for at least another 6 months.

Can’t wait to pack everything into my car and go off for a few days and hang out with my best friend and shop, eat, laugh and laugh. V. and I have done heaps of travel together in the past we are both very relaxed and we always sit down and work out what the other wants to do and then everyone ends up happy as they get to do a bit of everything.

Now I seriously have to get ready as I’m off for “Dinner & Martini’s” at ManBoys and I get to meet some of his friends. Am I nervous? Shit yeah!! His mates consist of barristers and solicitors and one of them is a QC. Fuck!!!! I am so out of my league with these people and I am shitting myself. I can just see myself picking up the incorrect fork or bumping into something!!!

I must run!!!
