We have just come back from spending a few days camping with some friends in Yea, no mobile signal, no electricity, so relaxing, exactly what I needed for a recharge:)
We stayed on a friends property, 75 acres, he is a cattle farmer (who lives in the city), and his land has a part of the goulburn river running through. The only building on the whole property is an old tin shack that they all call 'the hut'
Here is the view of the river...so lucky to have water to swim in!
The Hut!
It was a pretty quiet New Years....a bit of rain which was lovely!!
All the kids were getting impatient by 11.30pm - they pepped up for the countdown and lit some sparklers...we were all fast asleep by 12.30!!
Things were ok eatingwise considering I had no imput with any cooking or food prep - One of the other guys is a bully with the bbq...won't let any female near it...won't even let us do dishes...a real sweetie!! I ate bbq meat with salad most meals. I did drink a fair amount of scotch - with diet coke...this will be the last time for a while:)
But we are home now and since this is the last time we are going away, it is time for me to get back into a rountine!
I have a horrible photo that Jason took while we were away that has really made me cringe...I will look at it as a reminder of why I am doing this!!
In the morning I will weigh myself for my official start weight ( I couldn't weigh in this morning)
and also do some measurements to keep me motivated:)
I hope evryone on holidays are having a great time - and that those at work are not working too hard!! Will check up on you all in the morning!
Goodnight:)
