Give me fuel, Give me fire, Give me that which I desire

 

The title is a lot more exciting than the week was - it came on the radio just as I was nearing Tibshelf to charge on the way home from Chams :)

Not much to report really.

Got a bit of post event come down in the early week, but my workload took my mind off that pretty quickly. 

Managed to go for a run on Wednesday lunchtime, did a bit more walking that I would have hoped, but the wind on my face, and cool air in my lungs did wonders for my mood.

Lazors

Thursday, my laser session - handy tip for anyone doing it, if you are going to stick to a 4 week interval, make sure you do your first week in one that is going to convenient for you for the duration of the treatment !!  

The 2nd week seems like it was a bad idea, not being able to dress for some of the groups I go to is a non-optimal state of affairs. Then again, 3rd week might interfere with Invasion, and 1st week with LFF, so perhaps I had little choice. The place I go to doesn't do Mondays - that would be the best day as most groups are on Thursdays, and socials on Fridays, it's it's 3 days you are meant to wait till shaving.

Chameleons 

So Thursday night was Chameleons, I couldn't shave or wear makeup, so didn't fancy traveling dressed, so chucked some boobs a bra and a wig in a bag figuring I could at least make some effort to fit in.

There will be no photographic evidence of this :)

Joanna was in need of trans-uber, so after failing to charge at Tibshelf on the way down (connector out of service), I drove over her way to pick her up. Unfortunately my phone had not sent the message informing her of my ETA, so when I arrived at the pickup point she hadn't known to set off. 

But it was only a short drive to pick her up from her friends. We arrived at Chams in good time, and I plugged into the church charge point.

Inadvertently made a hybrid tea and hot chocolate on arrival which I found most amusing, didn't taste too bad, but not sure it will catch on.

There was a fairly good turnout, two new people who I really didn't get much chance to talk to - but hoping they will be back. Spoke with Maria for a bit, and Stevie - not spoken to her before, really into their music, an impressive collection of keyboards. 

Can't say I enjoyed not looking my best, but it was better than being in bloke mode for sure. Took a few photos towards the end, and left just before 11 I think. 

Dropped Joanna back home, then headed north, stopping off at Tibshelf for 15 mins for a bit of boost on the way back.

Friday

Hot Chocolate with cream
TGI Fridays

Decided to treat the family for a meal out at TGI Fridays in Barnsley -  Increased Izzy time had left me less motivated to go out with them over the past year. Something I want to try to re-balance heading into this one.

It's not that I don't want to be with them, but if I go out a couple of times a week as Izzy my social quota feels fulfilled. I'm just not that fussed about going out in man mode. Some of the girls are out every night, don't know how they manage it !

I had steak , ribs and king prawns, and a hot chocolate to finish with - well and bit of the kids puddings as they ordered ones much too large for themselves.

It goes against the diet really, but I will make up for it over the weekend with a run.

I was also going to complete the brake installation on the Morris Minor, but the parts haven't arrived this morning, so seems it will be next weekend for that.
