Summer seems to have arrived

Summer seems to have arrived already, we are having unseasonally hot weather now after all that unseasonally cold weather the other week. I have just been sitting out in the back garden for half an hour but had to come in again as it was too hot - its about 80F today.

Last week we had a Brit night out with AnnMarie and Shaun & Marie and a visiting dignitary from the RAF. We all went to Bonefish Grill and had a lovely meal and some very nice wine. Marie was driving so she gave us all a lift home and then they came in for a few more drinks. I am happy to say I still managed to go out for a run at 7.40am the next morning however I felt terrible that evening and ended up going to bed before Tom...
Jordyn & Aimee came round after school to play and stay for tea. As it was a warm day they all decided to go swimming in the pool. Rather them than me, the water must have been freezing.

On Saturday we all went out for breakfast at Applebees - the school was hosting a fundraising event there so we went to support the school and eat pancakes. Tamsin took the children off for the rest of the day so I went back to bed around noon and had a lovely sleep for a couple of hours. Needless to say when I went to collect them they had all been swimming again - obviously the water isn't that cold however I think I'll stay out of it for a few more weeks yet.

Nick and I were out again on Saturday night, this time at a wine tasting with some of his colleagues. The wines were all in paper bags so you couldn't see what it was you were drinking and you had to rate them on taste. There were a few surprising discoveries as one of the wines that was well liked was only $5. I was designated driver for this event so rather than drinking wine I got to eat all the food instead. Yummy.

Sunday we headed over to Tim & Deanna's for lunch and more delicious food. Then to compensate for all the eating I have been doing, so far this week I have been out for a run, played tennis twice and been to my personal training session and it's only Tuesday. Phew. Still got two more runs another personal training session and 9 holes of golf to go before it's Friday again. You'd think with all this exercise I'd be losing tons of weight and looking fab, sadly this is not the case. I'm hoping this is because I have only just started running again so am woefully slow at the moment and not going for very long. Give me a few weeks and the pounds will be dropping off....here's hoping anyway.
