Gorgeous weather in London now, sunny, around 25 degrees... Damned that sun. Cycling to and from work along the river is pure torture as all I can think of is how incredibly nice those pitchers of cold beer and iced white wine looks and all I want to do is hang around the river in the sun with good friends and drink shit loads of cold alcoholic beverages... It has actually been quite ok without the booze the last two months, I've been pleasantly surprised. But with the sun the cravings are back....
Just to let you know I am not all unhealthy in my thoughts - I also really miss running along the river - but that is impossible with my pained hips at the moment. Have not really found any fun exercise to do whilst pregnant but do it anyways... swimming, a bit of weights, cycling, and joined a bouncy "maternally fit" class locally once a week. That is quite fun actually - around 10 pregnant ladies on swiss balls bouncing about for an hour, must look very amusing to an outsider... but not as amusing as we find the "stick men" as we call them... The class is in a youth centre that has all sorts of evening classes going on and at the same time as our "bouncy mama" class, there are about 15 middle aged men with beer bellies, dressed in black, trying to look all hard and walking around a room slowly moving big sticks around... some sort of martial arts but always makes the bouncy mamas want to sneak a peak to have a laugh :-)
Well well. It is not for ever. You will hopefully see me running along the river with a sporty buggy with a baby happily sleeping in it and after the breastfeeding period also stopping to have a drink by the river in the sun.
It can still be very sunny and warm in December right?
