Safe journey Grandpa (Fraser)

Today my grandfather has sadly passed away he was in hospital for the past week and has thankfully left us swiftly and with little pain. He was also blessed to leave with no knowledge of his poor prognosis, so better than waiting his time out. 

Safe journey Grandpa (Fraser) May you find a restful place to rest in the next 3 days. We love you and will miss you dearly. A safe journey as you find your new home.

Feminism

Today I mentioned something about considering changing my name when I get married. Someone present accused me of being anti-feminist. While in this case it was a joke it did get me thinking. Surely me choosing that as it symbolises to me my marriage and joining of my life to another persons this is an acceptable choice. What would I feel be anti feminist would be to change my name because that is what is expected of me as a woman even though I don't want to. Maybe in honor of feminism I want wear a bra on the day ..... Actually that would be bad I will wear a bra it is safer.

A perfect day

Well this morning I went shopping with Kevin for a new bed . Kevin and I have been together now for just short of a year.

After that we went and bought milkshakes from my favourite chocolate shop. We then went for a 2 hr horse ride the first I have been on in a year and his second ever :)

After which we changed into our glad rags and went to sky high on mt dandenong. At 5 o'clock we went through the maze there eventually coming to the butterfly garden where champagne was waiting and Kevin asked me to marry him...... I said yes.



We then concluded our perfect evening with a lovely restaurant dinner and amazing desserts yum!

Having already called mum to tell her which meant courtesy of my brilliant family we came home to a congratulations banner and a room lit by fairy lights a perfect ending to my most perfect day. I love you Kevin it was brilliant.



Finally in case you missed it in the details I love Kevin and we are engaged :)

Awaiting the Pit

Well my uni is going really well. I find myself enjoying the course and having optimisim about the prospect of teaching. Having been warned of it I now find myself awaiting the inevitable 'pit' or low ebb. Even facing prep, the area of school I feel least confident with, I am looking forward to the experience.

Back on track

Personal trainer tonight hope it goes well

Grrrrrr

I find this whole getting fit thing really hard. I want help from an impartial stranger in getting out there and jogging and getting my fitness going. Unfortunately I haven't the money or the facilities available here. My mum is currently being my accountability person for my diet but I find that difficult because I already feel I failed her by getting to this size. I miss being in Melbourne and I just don't know what to do or how to go about this damn task. I find it hard to find the joy in the exercise as I don't like doing it alone but I have never found a gym to be a supportive environment in my experience. So find myself here wondering how I can achieve what I so desperately want to achieve.

Oh yeah and freaking group assignments are doing my head in

My health

I need to lose weight to reach a healthy range. I currently weigh 102.3 as of this morning. My first mini goal is to get under 100kg then to take each weightloss as a 5 kg mini goal.

I will share ideas here of what I enjoy about being healthy and what trips me up. Feel free to comment I am aiming to take a positive approach and consider that I am working towards a required goal. To approach it with joy and graciousness and an unflinching commitment and honesty with my self about the ways I lie to myself around my weight.
