A very good week

I'm not sure if moving to Paleo has made me more optimistic or if I have just had a very good week, but either way I am taking it as a win.

Last weekend was my younger brother's engagement party, which was good, if slightly awkward given that my divorced parents were in the same room as each other. It just sucks that they can't politely say hello then move on. In fact, my mum seemed to go totally out of her way to avoid even speaking to him. My stepdad said hello to my dad, as did my mum's brother and mother. Just one of the many joys of being a child of divorce!!

I then had a couple of nights of dodgy sleep - not helped by me having my first glass of cava since going Paleo, which got me very tipsy and led to me drinking the whole bottle and being in bed by 7pm.

But through it all I maintained my positivity. I had a good quarterly review at work, which made me feel a lot better about being there. It also resulted in my boss telling me I can try and arrange a trip to London to see a national newspaper's online operations.

Then I got a letter from Lloyds Bank, offering me money for mis-sold PPI. And the really great part of that was it was totally out of the blue. I hadn't pursued a claim or made a complaint. So I sent back my form saying I would accept it. Now I just need to wait for the cheque!!

Went back to the gym after far too long an absence. And to keep the momentum I have decided to sign up for the Edinburgh Electric Run when the registration opens. And the Tough Mudder next year for my 30th. Now I need to get fit!!

This weekend I have more gym and the ARRG league-wide meeting after home team scrims tomorrow. I also have a lot of paperwork to do and cats to cuddle!!

Have a good weekend!!
