Trip to England - Part Deux

Can you believe it's Thursday already? Time has certainly flown. Some more pics for everyone.

1) Me, Terry, Fran, Tim - Terry, Trev and I used to work together in our last jobs in England. We've kept in touch over the years and they had Tim and I over to dinner.

2) Me and Jenny - she and I worked together way back before I was a manager (so a flipping long time ago). Tim and I went out with Jenny and Frankie for dinner.

3) Me and Amanda - she and I worked together in St Louis when I first joined the company.

Note: have you ever wondered why I'm always on the left of the picture?

So, it's been busy. Monday my friend Deb didn't contact me so we didn't hook up - I'm really sad about that, but hopefully we'll still find time for coffee at some point. Monday night Tim and I went out with Jenny and Frankie for Thai and did a lot of catching up., They're coming to NYC in April so we did a lot of planning for that.

Tuesday I drove to Braintree and went shopping with Amanda - well, we went into Marks and Sparks and then sat in a restaurant for several hours catching up. The last time we saw each other it was when she was in Chicago last summer.

Wednesday I hung out with Tim in the morning - checking out ITUNES and our list of new CDs etc and then in the afternoon I went to lunch with my friend Debbie (pic is on a previous post). Spent a lot of time comiserating about turning 40 this year. They're hoping to do an American trip this year too which will be fun.

Today I'm working....yippee (not). I've finished my meetings now and am waiting to be taken for a few beers. I'm meeting up with probably half a dozen people I've known over the past few years. I'm really looking forward to it.

Tomorrow I have nothing planned at all during the day - I'm assuming that I'll be with Mum and Dad, we'll have lunch, maybe shop a bit etc etc. In the evening Tim and I are meeting Diana and Charlie for dinner.

My darling husband mailed me my IPOD so now I feel much better. Who knew you could have withdrawal symptoms from a blinking MP3 player:)

On the eating front it's been awful - to the point where I emailed my trainer for more than a single session next week. I feel so out of shape. don't get me wrong, the chips, sausages and chocolate are fabulous - but there's so much of it and it's wonderful. However, mrs fat pants doesn't need any more excuses.

I will be thin for when I'm 40.
