Starting Piano Lessons next friday!

I taught myself how to play the piano between the ages of 12-14 and played until I was 16. But after I left school and got my qulifications in Music, I didn't have access to a piano nor space for one and stopped playing. Last year I brought myself a Keyboard and was shocked to realise I had forgotten pretty much everything I knew. I couldn't even read music anymore.
So today I have booked myself in for Piano lessons! Woo hoo.
Hopefully once I get into the swing of it Ill remember things a little more clearly!

WEIGHT WATCHERS DIET

Well its that time of year....time to start a real diet rather than the faddy ones which don't work.
I find it really hard to lose weight as i live on near to nothing food wise and I'm a really active person. However my metabolism is really slow and I have been told I need to eat a lot more than what I do to lose weight. The problem is I really hate the feeling of being full plus I hateeee having to eat. Dont ask me why, I just hate the whole eating process.
So I have been assured if I follow the weight watches diet, as long as I eat all my points I will be able to lose weight. Plus I can continue having smoothies or slimfast during the day (I hate eating anything before 3pm)!

By June I want to have lost at least 14lbs min and I have 16 weeks to do it so I am aiming at losing 1lb a week!


So Week one I have already Lost 1lb, only 13lbs to go!

Im also going to go back to they gym next week now that Im feeling better from the ulcer.

Changing Horses!

I loveee my new Ben Kweller Album. The album is made up of a collection of songs that Ben has written over the years and its soo good!
You can also buy it on vinyl and that also comes with the cd...somehow i missed this when i ordered my cd so slighty sad about that!

My sundays work!

Last weekend I spent time gardening and this weekend I decided to bake as it has been a while since I last did. Then I decided to blog about it! I may add pictures later of my daughter enjoying the cake as Im not actually amazingly keen on chocolate cake....I just make a mean one lol!

Yay Ben Kweller

A few months ago if you had told me I was going to be a Ben Kweller fan i would have laughed at you. When I had heard his music, I had never thought i would be a fan but that dude is amazing live!
Yesterday i asked my friend if he would come and see Ben with me next time he was here and today ordered his new album and low and behold I see UK tour dates for in May when my American friend is over!
Im so excited hence me blogging twice in one day! yay!

TRBX

Soooo a week ago when my friend asked if i was going to book on next years Rock Boat I told her a firm NO! Not a chance in hell....I had only just finished paying for last years and I couldn't even go on it! She promised to insure me and I still said no.


So tell me how a few days later I was pressuring her into booking now and quickly. Ill tell you why. Once i Realised Hanson wouldn't be on it which would hopefully rule out the crazies from the seriously cool Fans I know, I started considering it. Then when i saw how many of the girls I adore were going on it I was even more tempted and then when someone told me it would sell out quickly I was sold!
TRBX here I come, sun, sea and sand (gross i have such a fear of sand its unreal) Music and booze!

Roll on 2010!

Off to buy salad for my extreme diet plans!
