Anyone who knows me knows that i’m less than enthusiastic about the beach. Apart from my lilly white Irish skin tones and terror of large bodies of water, the sand just gets in EVERYWHERE and my body isn’t exactly beach ready.
So on Saturday when Jinx returned from a 6am breakfast hunt and suggested a walk on the beach front i was a little hesitant, but half an hour later the weatherwas just too beautiful for even me to stay inside so we bundled into the car and headed off for uShaka.
That was taken from the end of the pier near Moyo at uShaka. The weather was glorious and because we’re headed for winter it wasn’t too hot
We ended up walking from uShaka to Joe Cools which is almost a 5km walk by my reckoning. It didn’t feel that far at all! We stopped on the way back to introduce K2 to the beach and she LOVED it! She had such a blast digging in the sand. Jinx took her into the water, but she wasn’t too keen on that at all. I guess that’ll just take some getting used to. We’ve decided that we’ll be doing it WAY more often
K2 loving the sand
Jinx and I being super cheesy
I was so impressed by how much Durban beachfront has been upgraded since I last saw it. It really is lovely now!
So by some small miracle i managed to shed a massive amount of weight just before i left Jozi. i guess a combination of emotional upheaval and being pretty broke helped, but anyway. i notice it’s starting to creep back. I blame happiness and being way closer to shops for this, but the point is, the fat must eff off and stay effed off.
I don’t generally do hectic diets because as soon as i feel deprived of something, i start hectically craving it and will cheat and cheat often, so my plan is to just start eating healthier. so i’ll be putting away the frying pan and concentrating on lots of salads and roast veggies as opposed to take away. Hopefully this will kick my ass and my metabolism into gear a bit right?
So Dear Audience, this is your job. If you see me tweeting, blogging, FBstatusing, or anything elseing about eating crap, you need to mock me. call me a fat ass. make me feel weak willed and lumpy. ok?
Oh, and any healthy eating tips you may have? leave a comment
Thanks
Wow, Dear Audience, it’s been a while, hasn’t it. I’m still here, still loving being back in Durban, still breathing.
I’m not even sure where to start. Those of you that follow me on twitter will know by now that the friend I was supposed to flatshare with became my very significant other shortly before I moved in to the little town house I’m itching to redecorate. I’m bissfully re adjusting to cohabitation and am slowly letting him chip away at the walls that were swiftly thrown up after my last little romantic disaster. The fact that my girls adore him helps a little
Being in the same province with both of my kids is more wonderful than I can explain. K1 has barely stopped talking since I got back and as she grows up I can see so much of both FOK1 and myself in the things she does it makes me laugh (and worry a little) so often. K2 still isn’t walking, but is so close. She’s become such a little person in he own right.
So anyway, typing long posts on my bb is such a pain. Just wanted to let you know, Dear Audience, that I’m here, in one piece. Promise you’ll get a proper post with pictures and everything when I can hijack Jinx’s laptop for a while
