So the good weather has finally come... only apparently to vanish again by Thursday. Typical British weather! We made the most of it though this weekend and spent the day at a place called Hawkstone Park. Its a big park near Shrewsbury full of caves, monuments, views and the like. We took the dog who loved being out and about even if she had to ( Read more... )

I hope you'll reach all of your goals. I've read and enjoyed the Game of Thrones books too.
It's definitely healthy to enjoy nice day with great weather while they last. Nice pics, your dogs looks cute.

The place you spent the day is just beautiful!!! Your little dog is very cute also!!!

I love Goodreads-it is just such a fun site and I love tracking how many books I read each year and seeing the book recommendations that the site makes.

Good luck with the exercising and dieting plan-I bet you will do great!

Thank you, I hope and feel really positive about it.

Yeah I'm not super dieting, just reducing portions, eating more greens etc. Can't be bothered with calorie counting either :)

That's good going on the book front! My goal is to read 52 books a year. I always hit my target but I'm not as quick as you. I read at least one book a week and that's fine with me :)

Thank you. Yeah im not normally so quick but have been reading quite a few shorter stories which i think has inflated my count a little. I'm just a reading fiend at the moment lol.

Love the nature and your pup is a cutie!

Good luck with the exercise and diet plan. What I found that worked for me is starting small, so small that I'd feel like an idiot for screwing it up, and then building things up along the way. That way I already have a formed habit of doing something and it's not that hard to expand on it.

I've binge read the whole published "Song of Ice and Fire" last summer and loved it! GRRM has some really bad ass skills when it comes to character build. I love how he pulls you in and gets you emotionally worked up about everyone.

Than you!

Yeah I'm taking it slowly just hope it all works out. I don't want to loose a ton of weight quickly, just get a bit healthier and fitter i suppose.

Yeah he does do that with the characters... then kills them off mercilessly!

Yes, and then we all feel really sad about them! I hope to hone my writing skills in the same direction. :)
