I am a little bit addicted!!

I do not usually have an addictive personality......well, unless you count the small addiction that I used to have for cadburys fruit and nut chocolate!! (I am now weaned off it for good ha ha !!)

My latest addiction ~ is to the Twilight books!!

I read Twilight and totally loved it ~ now I am nearly finished New Moon ~ which I am enjoying just as much ~ so much actually that I was still reading it at 1 am this morning ~ I got so engrossed in it that I completely lost track of time! I will more than likely get it finished tonight ~ and then I can start on the next one ~ Eclipse. I am enjoying them so much that I don't want to be reading them so fast (I can't help it!!), as it means that I will be at the end of the story too soon! I would never have thought that a story which included vampires and werewolves would ever be my cup of tea! BUT ~ in this case it is.

The children are spending the weekend with their dad this weekend ~ so the week has been a bit stressed ~ I have to pack their stuff tonight and get it all ready as he is picking them up tomorrow morning and bringing them back on Sunday. Although they are both a little bit apprehensive about the whole thing ~ I am sure that once they get there, they will be ok and have a nice time.

2 items of the new furniture that I ordered arrived today ~ which was a bit of a shock ~ as I have not sorted the old unit out yet ~ I suppose that I will at least get the time to do that this weekend ~ I really can't win ~ the bed I ordered took FOREVER to come and now this arrives in super fast time ~ I know, I really shouldn't complain!!

Those of you who have read my blog often will already be aware that in times of stress ~ I tend to shop (judging by my bank balance this week ~ I must lead a very stressful life ha ha !!!!) Today I bought 2 CDs ~ Awake by Josh Groban and the Gabriella Cilmi album. Both are excellent ~ I have listened to them both and love them. There is a song on the Josh Groban CD called You are loved (don't give up) ~ which I totally love ~ I must have listened to it a thousand times (tee hee!!!).

I have also managed to slim down yet another dress size this last month ~ so the latest pair of new jeans that I have basically been living in (I do wash them ~ I promise!!) ~ no longer fit and have annoyed the hell out of me today by falling down !! I think that another visit to the clothes shop will be in order this weekend too. I remember when I first started dieting ~ a friend of mine who had lost 6 stone said to me that I shouldn't pay out on too many new clothes as she had done that and promptly slimmed out of them ~ I should have listened to her ~ because this is what is happening ~ each time I go down a size I get so excited that I splurge a bit on new clothes, only for them to be much too big 4 weeks later!! The problem is that you end up having absolutely NOTHING to wear ~ at all ~ I am fed up of wearing the same things ~ because they are all that fit (and don't fall down).....I will be glad when I am where I want to be and at the size I want to be ~ then I can just go and buy everything new (in my dreams.......that reminds me ~ I must do the lottery!!).
