Every so often I – and I’m sure many others, catch sight of myself unexpectedly in a mirror, and for a second I don’t actually recognize myself. it can be a new haircut, or new clothes… or it can be for a less happy reason… the reason that there is more of me than there should be!
I was sitting in the hairdresser’s where there are mirrors all around, and I suddenly caught sight of myself from a different angle… oh dear… I really do need to get back on that diet! I’m not making excuses – well, actually I am, but we have a wedding to go to on Friday, and then we are very excited about going to the USA to visit my daughter who is doing an internship there… Well, the USA is famous for generous portions of delicious food… so this diet is going to have to happen when I return… However, maybe we shall do so much walking while sight-seeing that perhaps I can mitigate the amount of food by the amount of exercise!

Losing weight is like an invention, 10% inspiration and 90% perspiration. Move it Lois. No excuses and no daydreaming! Git!

To change the subject I just rediscovered Randy Travis and his song It’s Just a Matter of Time. His vocal range is fantastic. I remember my Mother singing it to Brook Bentons’ version years ago. Have a safe trip and try to find some grits while in the States.

It’s impossible to get small portions in the USA. When I have asked for them, they say, ‘oh you skinny Briits’. I’ll take that compliment as I am generously proportioned too
