Sending get well soon messages to my granny who took a tumble on the ice at the weekend. She has broken her funny bone (ouch) so is in a stooky but she is being very upbeat about it and still plans to travel to New Zealand in March (not bad for 88!)
My fitness plans have started well in 2008 - I've been out jogging, spinning and swiss balling. Jogging is not a good idea when it is frosty so I may be giving that a miss for a while. Plus I forgot to cool down and stretch afterwards so my thighs were killing me all weekend! I really am out of practice with my running. There was a while when I was running at least 3 times a week (and I ran three 10ks in one year, beating my PB every time) but in the run up to the wedding I didn't have time and started going to the gym at lunchtimes instead.
Today I went to a dance taster session at Sloans. I say dance, but the actual title was 'burlesque' dancing! It was fun - lots of bumping and grinding with a little bit of peeling! I did get worried when she started demonstrating the nipple tassling but it was all very decent and humorous!

STILL no news on the house so we have given up hope and started searching the property market again with a vengeance.
Other news this week is that our wedding photo was in the Greenock Telegraph (only 5 months late!) and it timed in nicely with the 'showings of the wedding album' - everyone is very impressed with the unusual format, even my boss (although he was mainly impressed with the Tiffany earrings my sister bought me to wear on the day!)
Ross still isn't feeling great, which isn't good because we have a busy weekend planned - plus I am looking forward to taking him on at Wii boxing now that we have another nunchuk to play the game. We have been playing Brain Academy recently and I was gutted that Ross beat me first time - I was sure I was more intelligent than him ;o) I'll be working hard on improving my score so that I beat him next time!
Tonight is the opening of Celtic Connections - a festival of Scottish/Highland inspired music - so I'm looking forward to going to some of those gigs and seeing some friends play.
Finally, I am planning a girly night out on Sat 23 Feb - drinkies at mine first then hitting the streets of Glasgow for some cocktails and boogying. Let me know if you're up for it!
