Christmas 2019 - did I survive?

So, we are at the in-between phase of Christmas and New Year  - do you know the day? I must admit I have struggled to remember the days since I finished work on Christmas Eve!

We usually only have 2 meals on Christmas Day and Boxing Day so it wasn't too difficult to stick to my points! I have to be honest though I have not pointed any of the alcohol that I have drunk since Christmas Eve and there has been rather a lot of it to be fair!

We have decided to stay in the village for New Year this year and will end up in one of the pubs - both I believe have discos planned - so more alcohol and then a short stagger home.

I am back to work tomorrow morning - alarms are set for 6am - hubby has already started moaning about them as he is off until Friday - he has a day in lieu on Thursday as he has been asked to work on Saturday (and we thought the days of weekend working were over!)

So I have signed up to the Rutland Night Walk and I have also signed up to the Walk 1000 Miles challenge  - not sure I will complete that one but I will give it a go.

The Night Walk is at Rutland Water so today I dragged hubby out for a training walk - we parked at the Church Car Park and then walked up to the beginning of the dam - 3 miles in total. It took me just over an hour to do and my knee felt good - tomorrow may be a different story though!

Walking around Rutland Water is lovely - the sun was out, it was a bit windy and the sun was setting as we were on the return part of the walk - I would definitely recommend a walk out here if you live in the area.

Yesterday we went to Foxton Locks just as the sun was due to be setting and walked around the locks as well - again, another place to go to if you live in the area!



Oh and weight loss? I am currently sitting on a 4lb loss but that may all change come Thursday!
