There are certain birthdays which you remember more than others ... for example, I remember my 13th (I got given a briefcase ????), I remember my 18th .... my 21st (that was seriously uninspiring), my 25th (I dreaded being a quarter of a century, but we turned it around by having a massive house party and announced our engagement :) ), 30th ... was good, I'd lost weight, felt confident and DH spoiled me rotten ... since then though birthday's have been a little "nothingy" ...
So, I approach this years, when I will be turning a corner, the great "40" .. apparently, all my friend's seem to have been doing this for the last year, they've been celebrating with parties, or just generally celebrating ... but I don't want a party.
Why don't I want a party ... well, bluntly I am the largest / heaviest / most unfit I've ever been, and I don't want everyone thinking "what a heffalump" .. and yes, I know, my friends wouldn't think that, after all, if they thought that .. then they wouldn't be friends (see, getting old gives you some insight ;) ).
Well, in an attempt to turn my life around, I've joined a gym, in fact, I've made the family join the gym ... kind, me, eh :)
I do have a separate diet blog, on a dieting site, which I used for several years, made some great buddies, but having returned there this week, all I see are "bots", "spam", the regulars are all gone, and there don't seem to be new ones around either really ....
I don't know where they've gone .... when did they leave the party ? Do they feel the same way about my disappearance ?!
So, I thought I'd turn this blog into the replacement for the other one, and perhaps find some likeminded bloggers along the way .... first I have to work out how to do that !?
