and one to go..... 40th's that is!!! We had one of my BESTEST friends 40th last night at the UH Cossie Club! Was a fabulous night out - had a glass of wine on arrival and then 4 double Gin and Tonics! Felt seedy at 3am when I woke up, but took some nurofen and a HUGE glass of water and have been fine once those kicked in! Food wise - well didn't make the best of choices - 2 mini sausage rolls (not as nice as the ones I used to buy from the bakery each day), an egg sandwich, 2 mini spring rolls, 2 crackers with cheese and a piece of the birthday cake! But I had a great night out (and even Stephan enjoyed himself too I think - he is a very quiet guy and doesn't go out that much) with some wonderful friends! We left about 10.45 as the music was getting a bit loud for us and we had also told the babysitter we would be home by about 11pm.
Tonight (well this afternoon actually), we head to Stephan's sister in laws 40th - this one is at their place and is a BBQ & BYO. We won't get their till a bit later as my sister from Masterton is coming over to stay the night (as she is going to a dinner in town) so will wait for her to arrive and settle in before we head out. I'm certainly not planning on staying to late at this one as I am shattered from last night. So will hopefully be able to use Rachel as a reason to come home early... Stephan can either come home with us then, or hitch a ride home with other family members later on. Some of his cousins from Timaru are coming up for this party so it will be awesome to catch up with them while they are here! Will try to make some healthier choices at this one but no guarantees as I do plan to enjoy myself - just with out the alcohol factor included!
I had my 3 days off - well Wednesday was with Rachel.... and well Thursday and Friday - so much for some time to myself and to chill out as that didn't happen at all! Think I will be heading back to work for a rest!
Boy oh boy Rachel is really pushing my buttons today - Stephan is at his Mum's (again) finishing off the paving stones that they have been laying in her back yard. So it's just Rachel and I and she is being a brat - loveable but oh so annoying at times! Not helped that there is a continuous drizzle outside so she won't go and play outside even though I have told her to!

Keep going Karen - if you can switch over to making "best" choices you will see results. It is OK to have times like parties where the choices are not ideal. I would love to see you succeed with this!!
