New Day, New Week

hey everyone, hope ye all had a great weekend and are fighting fit again for the new week ahead. I’ve gotten over my slump that hit on Friday. The great weather definately helped. I had the weekend to myself (bf was at a 3 day music festival) so I was able to spend alot of time with the girls. Spent most of yesterday in Trinity College sitting out on the green. We treated ourselves to a skinny mocha icecap from my favourite coffee shop (Insomnia) and sat out and talked about anything and everything for about 3 hours.

 Went shopping then to get my last bits and bobs for the trip to Sardinia on the 25th July (only 2 weeks away now!!!) and saw that I had a big red mark on my chest with 2 white lines where my necklace was. Obviously wasnt wearing enough sunscreen. What’s it going to be like over in Sardinia?! I’ll melt in the 40 degree (Celcius) heat. I’ve typically Irish skin…. pale and freckly (the freckles are a new thing this year! My foreheads covered with them now!) and I burn a nice crispy red if I dont put on factor 25-30 in the Irish summer.

Anyhew…. part of my shopping was to get a swim suit for the holidays. This is the 1st time in 6 years that I’ve bought one. I went for a 2 piece…. not really a bikini, but I can roll the top up when I’m sun bathing. At least my belly’s covered, which is a good thing!

So…. today is a good day. Had to go on a building site this morning for the 1st time ever. The company sent me down for a quality control induction course and a bit of a tour of one of the sites. Really interesting….. the tour, not the induction course (yawnnn). Knew some of the lads from the tag rugby, so it was good to see them too. But the fact that I was a girl out on site, was a bit of a novelty for alot of them! Funny moments!

And my bf is back in Dublin again after 2 weeks of home! Yeeayyyyy. He may be too knackered to meet up this evening, but hopefully he’ll call over. Missed him loads, especially last week when the going was so tough.

 Didnt get a gym workout in this morning. Woke up and was way too tired, so I went back to sleep for another hour and then got up, did a Billy Blanks dvd and got ready for the day. I actually feel a bit better having changed my routine a bit. Change is always good. Now, I just have to remember to get my butt in the gym after work…. straight after work…. no sitting down on the couch and getting lazy!

Off to read some blogs etc now…. have a great Monday people!
