Happy Friday! A Feature, a Sneak and an Exercise Update...





Woo Hoo!!  As you can see I was a February Favourite 
at Scrapbooker's Anonymous with this layout, which I 
entered in their A - Z stash challenge - Letter G - by
scrapbooking my GIRLS using GLITZ DESIGN!




Photobucket

Seeing as things may have been a little dull around
 here this week, I have a sneak to show you which
I can only reveal in full on Thursday next week.  



I have tried very hard to have a really productive scrappy 
week but it has been so crazy that the week seems to have 
lasted about 5 minutes...it's difficult catching time in 
my studio between everything that goes on around
 here all day.  

My gym routine is still going strong although I haven't had the 
time to really get to grips with a strict diet.  I have lost 
quite a few centimetres and a few kgs at my last weigh 
in, not to mention that going out, chatting to people in the
 gym and simply exercising has enhanced my life no end
 this year.  I am so glad I made the resolution to change to 
an active lifestyle for 2012 & I don't see myself ever giving 
it  up now.  Even hubs has got all competitive and joined
 me! So!! - it's on like Donkey Kong! HAPPY WEEKEND!!

Yay! that's exactly what I found when I started at the gym too - I gained so much that had nothing much to do with my weight. It's great huh?! And Glen joined me too, which was a fab outlet for him, and gave us a wonderful new interest to share together. So happy for you:)

What a beautiful page - congrats!

dstandard said...

Oh and good for you on the gym. I'm an avid exerciser - walk and run about 5-6 miles every day I'm off and try to get to the gym a couple of times a week although this does lag - my daughter is work-out-aholic and dietician and she's always on me - made me a four page workout that I'll never in a million years be able to conquer but I try the basics. Seems she just doesn't understand that being almost 40 years older than her IS truly and excuse not to have her body!
