I couldn't even last until Thursday!

I had every intention of not drinking until Thursday until a client come friend decided it was my day to be "bugged" and boy does she do it well! I have never been one for surrounding myself with friends and talking endless girlie chat on the phone so when she started to phone me every half hour about the tiniest of detail I began to loose the plot. I ended up in a car park in Grasse banging my head against the steering wheel with very strange looks from the guy who parked up next to me.

New Year's resolution again for this year was learn to say "No." As you can tell I have not managed to stick to it! Better luck next year! Three glasses of wine by Wednesday is not good but it really was not my fault!

Going to give my liver a rest!

I spoke to a friend today who said that your liver repairs really quickly if you stop drinking so I am going to give mine until Thursday to see if I can repair it, I wonder if that will be long enough? Not that I am a big drinker but I have just got into the habit of snuggling up on the sofa and having one or two glasses of wine before bed.

So tonight I have had lovely freshly juiced apples with sparkling water and I haven't missed the wine at all! It's easy! I wonder how I will feel by Thursday!

Too many parties.

Well we have gone from being complete recluse's to out and out party people. It started three weeks ago where we went from declining all invites to accepting all of them and this morning I am not sure I like it anymore! I have gone from running the Paris Marathon in April to running the Cannes Half Marathon instead, I think that sums up my life at the moment.

Still the running is great but I just know there are not enough hours in the day and I don't have enough will power to put in the training. The big thing also for me is after already running two Marathons in under 3hr 30 min's to do more that 4hrs would make me want to end it all! Too competitive I know but that's just me! Had a great run yesterday with my lovely friend Karen. We have been trying to have a run together for ages so yesterday was the day. Having said that we didn't have the greatest start as we sat up until midnight Friday night and managed to drink three bottles of champagne celebrating the start of the new venture and between four of us and Karen's husband Ian only had one glass!

It was a great run though, we ran 10 miles up and down all the rolling hills in the back country of Grasse in about 1hr 40mins. I was left behind on the hills by Karen and as she is as competative as me I think we will have a good race in Cannes in February!
