House on the go!
Yippee! It's started! Had our first inspection today, they have laid the foundation and are pouring the slab at 6.30am tomorrow! So exciting. It looks soooooooooo big.
I've also gotten stuck into my article writing for Womens Fitness & Health mag tonight and knocked them all over so am quite happy with today's accomplishments!
Car has been serviced, Christmas cards done (at eye doctor's rooms!), presents purchased, presents mailed, chickens ordered. Have to get a couple of new tyres before we drive to Murrayville over Christmas.
My eye bleeding has cleared up so that is a bit of a relief! Next time I will make sure to drink the ENTIRE bottle of champagne rather than putting it back in the fridge - don't want to make that mistake again!
Had a Christmas party at one of the Board Members of LMW last night - was a beautiful night for it, 40 degree day but lovely at night. Outside, beautiful food, had a thick, lean fillet steak and salads, some prawns, a couple of chardy's and I even indulged in a little lemon tart for dessert. Received a lovely huge box of homemade chocolate biscuits (shortbread, florentines, choc covered oranges, melting moments etc), homemade museli, jams, fruit cake and champagne from LMW. I will be taking most of that with us on Christmas Day to share around!
Trained chest today - it was SO hot. Trained at lunchtime as Jodie was unable to train today. Last week I managed to get a pair of 45lb dbs up (with no spot) for a set of 5 incline bench presses, but today I could not even get them above my head!! Had to go back to the 40's. I did increase on a couple of others though. Calves again too, and abs.
Received my express posted Myoplex Lites today, thanks very much to Michelle! Now am enjoying my Capp Ice's once again.
Tomorrow morning will do some cardio, wrap presents, go out for lunch with some workmates from the old SRWA and maybe do a spot of shopping after that. After all, I am on holiday!!
You can speculate and guess and theorize and envision, and all those things have their place. Yet you will not know for sure what you can and cannot do until you step forward and make the effort.
There are many things that might go wrong, and many obstacles you likely did not anticipate. Yet you must not allow the possibility of those problems to stop you before you even get started.
When something comes up that you didn't plan for, you can learn from it and make adjustments. When a difficult challenge arises, that challenge brings with it the opportunity for even greater value when you choose to persevere.
Everything that is easy and guaranteed to succeed has already been done. Real accomplishment comes from doing the things that no one else thinks you can do.
Lift your eyes up and see the objective at the end of the path. Then lift your feet up, one after the other, and take the first few steps along that path.
Accomplishment is not what is reasonable or practical or certain or without controversy. Accomplishment is precisely what you decide to make it.
