HELLO, a wee while and no blog...........

Howdy! Just thought I'd do a quick catch up here.

The pic of me dressed up with BF was at my best mates 30th on Saturday 3 April. It was a great night, loads of fun! We partied at the venue, then some of us hit the casino bar for a couple of drinks, (no gambling!) For my mates 30th her Mum made her a book of her travels during her 20's! (She is dedicated and does a big adventurous OE every year so has lots of stories we wouldn't fully understand unless we were there).

The new shoes are today's new purchase, my new Brooks runners! I bit the bullet and no, didn't use a credit card. But these are ONLY for running outdoors/on treadmill and perhaps cycling, (NOT for work ever!) I got them from Sports Fever after walking and running on a treadmill to get a computerised image of my feet walking/running!

My $10 backpack of about 3 years old unconveniently broke stitching wise and the zip went recently. Hence I couldn't cycle with a backpack, or even walk down the town with a comfy backpack with whatever inside so I went looking out for cheap new ones today! I went to heaps of shops and discovered there are so many different types of backpacks and they are very high tech these days! I went to some adventure/outdoors sports shops and found a specialised cycling backpack I really want, I loved the comfort and the look of it on me but at a price of $189.95 I couldn't afford it. The backpack I settled on, (pictured above) set me back $55.00 in the end, comes with a warranty, (3 years I think), it has a padded back and will be sufficient for what I will be needing it for in the up and coming months I decided. That didn't go on a credit card either.

I guess you know without saying..............I haven't hit the big 68.0kg or 150 lb or it would be the first thing I'd be posting here. No long boring explanation from me. Infact I've found it easy not to weigh myself for the last 9 days...........as I know scales are up. But am underway to good things now. Will post about them soon :-)

So that's about it! It's raining in Perth today, - different!

Talk soon!

Pip :-)
