A bit about me

So, two posts in one night, I must be keen.

I thought I might start with a little bit about me.  And photos are always nice to look at.




So this is me (I'm in the dress).  And that charming fellow next to me is D.  Incase you hadn't gathered, the reason for the cheesy grins is we'd just got married.  And if you can't smile then, when can you?

This was 23rd October 2010, and I was truely happy in this photo. D is the one person who can make me feel good about myself.  He's also the one who can tell when I'm lying about how I feel. I'll stop there at the risk of getting too mushy and romantic.

This is my idea of a great friday night.  Amazing friends, nice wine, amazing cheese, and a good board game.  I'm very lucky in that I have some amazing friends.  Ones which will probably crop up on this blog are K&C (C's arms are featured in this photo), and S.  S doesn't know it yet, but she's going to be a big part of my weight loss journey.  But more about that another day.

And finally, this is Skittles.  She's a lurcher (greyhound crossed with a terrier, we think).  She lives with my in-laws not too far away, D and I share her with the in laws.  I wish she could live with us full time, but unfortunately we have to work full time, and it just wouldn't be fair on her.  (to say she is needy is an understatement).

Her three favourite things are sleeping, eating and running (not nessicarily in that order).  I have no excuse not to take her out for a walk at every oppertunity.  We could do 5 miles and she'd still want to run.  Watch out Skittles, I'm going to be seeing a lot more of you!
