Katycakes Won't Give Up...

Yes, very familiar, and I'm pretty sure it was part of the deal. I so identify with that walk to the shops, too, determined. We are at a tricky bit Chels but this is the bit that we have to get right. We cannot come unstuck after getting all this way. (Sounds mad, but that's why i have changed tracks - BECAUSE I need to keep going, and need to halt the binges which were escalating.)

For all of us, the way forward will be slightly different, but what matters is that we hang on to each other though the wobbly bits. (Some of us have more wobbly bits than others, lol... but NOT FOR LONG! Unwobbliness here we come!)

Challenges will come after us, and we will face them. Gotta be done.

Big hugs Chels.
Hahaha, unwobbliness is a great word. Not sure we would find it in the Oxford Dictionary but perhaps we could get it added if not :)
 
Unwobblified..........unwobblifulness :D


If they'll add "Bootylicious" for Beyonce... I do not see why they wouldn't add unwobblifulness (and it's past tense) for you.

Glad you and DD are feeling better today Katy...... a slight fluctuation on the scales is normal I am getting used to it now which is good, bet they go down again tomorrow. Take Care xx
 
Glad you are both on the mend, keep taking it easy though, 'flu takes a long time to shake off properly.

Unwobbliness - it'll be a long time until I don't do that! xx
 
DAY 70

Scales 12st.

Think I am going to go a bit more slowly with the bouncing back into action thing... sigh. Baby steps. Wet and cold here today, and really upset with the scary news from Japan. Feel so useless.

Morning Katy! Baby steps all the way hun, it'll definitely get you there eventually but on a more smooth unbumpified ride!!

Have a lovely Tuesday hunny

xx
 
Morning Katycakes,

Babysteps is a good plan -- think of how slowly the Beck book moves. Weeks just getting ready to diet.

Re: Japan --

I keep telling myself that my being upset won't help them or the situation. That it is "out of my control" for the most part, so I need to focus on what I can do. I will contact the base chapel today and find out if they are coordinating anything to assist with this situation. "Many hands make light work." I'll offer my hands somewhere and keep the faith.

Being "proactive" rather than "reactive" helps me to deal with these sorts of inexplicable tragedies. (Although, as an anti-nuclear power person, I do think some of this could have been avoided. And, there is a lesson in this awful situation.)

I hope that it warms up in the North; I am so missing the sun atm. It has been such a joy the past few days.

Baby steps for me too Katy, but us tortoises will get there all the same and stay there this time I hope. xx
 
Baby steps indeed KC. When a baby takes its first few steps there is someone there, just a short distance away to encourage, applaud and to catch, if needed. Gradually the baby learns to walk a little bit further and a little bit quicker, so we still stay close by......just in case.

One day we will all be able to ride this particular cycle without the stabilisers :D:D We'll be able to call out "Look Mum........no hands!!!"

Re: Japan......one of my contacts on FB, who I have known for years and who's inherited his father's racist BNP views, replied to someone elses sadness at what is happening in Japan with....."Remember the Burma Railway?" Well, apart from the fact he is only 50, so he wouldn't remember it himself......Burma has absolutely nothing to do with these people, the same way the holocaust has nothing to do with Germans or Dresden has nothing to do with us. I cannot understand his mentality. The appalling scale of the tragedy and the feeling of helplessness is so overwhelming and it has got to the point where I can't bear to watch the news now.

Bottom line is.......we are all here together and things like this should teach us to pull together. What affects the other side of the world impacts on everyone in some shape or form. If only the world could operate like our minis community. :sigh:

Sorry if this sounds like some kind of rant........not meant to be xxxx

 
Chels, rant away, it's OK. You know that I get on my high horse too from time to time! I have a zero tolerance allergy to racist stuff, cannot handle it at all... this guy is sad and deluded, and lacking in humanity, and that's his loss at the end of the day but boy I'd have a few choice words for him if he crossed my path.

You're so right, if we could spread the minis idea a little further... people from all backgrounds/ places taking their own paths towards a common goal, but linked always. We have to care, because without that we lose our souls, and yes, we are all in it together...

Baby steps for me too Katy there are a few of us taking baby steps but we all will get there eventually :grouphugg:
 
Morning Katy,
Happy Wednesday to you...!!
Have a good day hun
xx
 
Morning Katy, hope everything is going well for you, have a good Wednesday....
 
Hope you're feeling a lot better and having a good day. :)
 
:hug99: xx
 
Hi Katy, Hope things are okay. Couldn't quite make out whether you have been ill or just a bit down lately. Whichever, I do hope things are looking a bit brighter for you.
As for the Japan tragedy that seems to be on going - it is soo terrible for all those poor people and those in other countries that find themselves without homes and all their private possessions. I have been there so I know it only too well.

Take care...:)
