And breathe

Blog 26^th June 2013

Soooo, how was mediation I hear you ask??? Well I’m sure it was wonderful for the people who actually went. I was tucked up in bed after projectile vomiting all day with the worst stomach cramps I have had since I had food poisoning. (That I got from a restaurant, not my own cooking) The worst thing about being ill is when you sit up in bed and know you don’t have time to run to the toilet, so you have to try and decide where the best place to vomit is. Well I didn’t have time to get a towel, my vomit hit the wall about 2 feet away, went all over the carpet and some abandoned pants on the floor. It came out a particularly ghastly orange colour, thanks to the one I had late the night before.

If that wasn't bad enough I then had to drag myself downstairs to find some towels to clean it up, while trying not to throw up again. I scrubbed the floor with washing stuff for the washing machine and collapsed back into bed. I bought some stuff to clean it properly with today and how expensive it is to clean?! Over a fiver for 2 products that I can’t say have really done much, so I will now have to scrub daily until the orange tinge disappears.

So now next Tuesday will be meditation day, which is annoying because it pushed back the other things I wanted to do on my ‘do something new every week’ oh well onwards and upwards.

I have now written chapter 17 of my novel Blackmail and Betrayal and published it (www.booksie.com/hearthit) just in case you are interested! I have 8 more planned chapters to finish, I never knew I had so many words in me! I have had some good responses from people that have read it, so I’m really happy- can I call myself a writer now?

A ‘writer’ well columnist got my attention earlier though, I don’t usually like dragging the news into my blog as this is a happy place but what this girl said really riled me up. So Josie Gibson (from Big Brother) wrote in her NEW! Magazine column a response to people who called her family ’scum’ after her Grandmother was sent to prison for drug offenses, she said

“Since going on Daybreak to talk about my nan being jailed, I’ve had stick from people on Twitter calling my family scum. I don’t care if people slag me off, but I hate it when they say things about my family. These twitter trolls don’t know the full story. Also I said a few weeks ago that all paedophiles should get tattooed on their forehead and people have tweeted “how can you say that when you’ve got a drug-dealing grandmother ?” how can they compare someone who has got mixed up in transporting drugs to somebody who fiddles kids? What makes it all the more upsetting is that my nan’s really ill at the moment. She’s got an aneurysm on her heart and kidney failure. I don’t think she has got long to live.”

Well Josie, where do you think the drugs that your grandmother was transporting were going end up? In some poor vulnerable person, or even a young person’s blood, speeding up their heart, who should count themselves lucky when they haven’t ended up in hospital or worse- dead. Anyone who transports, sorry “gets mixed up in” drugs is pure scum and I don’t think someone who was convicted of possessing £240,000 worth of cocaine with intent to supply didn’t know what they were doing, if she was innocent why would she go on the run for 12 years?  Paedophiles are scum and so are people convicted of intending to supply drugs. Careful Josie it sounds like you are condoning her behaviour. Maybe it’s best if you let her do her time and talk about your fitness DVD sales instead.

I wonder if she has tried the squat challenge, which I am resurrecting. Starting today I am back on 50, going up by five every day for a month. I have also started on the 8 hour diet, I am looking at the clock now wondering what I should devour in my last 11 minutes, before I fast until 12 o clock tomorrow. Shame I don’t have any chocolate!

So yes I am starting yet another diet Which according to the title I can ‘lose a pound a day on the 8 hour diet’ I am going to do it for 3 days to kick start my weight loss, basically you have to eat all your food in a 8 hour window, then just water in between. I am going to eat between 12pm and 8pm as I find it harder to miss dinner in the evenings. Scientists believe that it burns off excess fat and has also been shown to combat the signs of aging! Yay! Something to help cure my latest worry- wrinkles. I will keep you posted on my progress. Although going by the picture below maybe i should worry about my facial hair more.

I haven’t had time to sketch a picture of Caspian from my novel Blackmail and Betrayal so I will do that tomorrow. Right better get back upstairs, I feel sick again and want to try and clean up the old stuff before I add to it.
