o hai stranger, it's been a while...
So, I've done this fabulous thing where I've not fallen off the wagon, I hopped, skipped, jumped and soared away from it. It's pre-girl-time week and my whole body went to crap, and I caved to it's every whim - except chocolate, and obvious sources of sugar. I ate the "good" peanut butter but the smell makes me feel really ill so that's off the menu at the moment. It was the processed "natural" big-brand one instead of a health shop fully natural made-in-your-face fresh stuff so that might help but BLERGH even thinking about it makes me feel yucky. So I pretty well stuck with the no-sugar thing, but the rest of my food was a mess. I have been exhausted mind, body and soul working two jobs, plus uni and organising derby stuff. So, ironically, I've been too tired to work out or care about what I ate, but if I was more vigilant and looked after myself I would probably be less tired! BUT that was then and this is now!
This weekend is WFTDA Championships so my sleep pattern is a bit out of whack, seeing as I slept from 5-11:30pm and have been up ever since. I've worked out while watching the rollergirls and after these two games I'll have a sleep then head off to training. Tuesday night was awesome: I had the best game I've ever played and people have been talking about it, which makes me SO proud I could burst! It was a lot of good luck as the floor was ice-slippery and we were only playing at about 50-70% but I was quite proud that even though it was slow derby I could adjust my play and stride to work with the floor, something that some of the others just weren't getting. I get SO much from BCR, they've really crafted me in to the player that I am now. Watching LOADS of derby online has helped. I'm just so proud and excited about how far I've come so quickly, and that my league has faith in me, and that BCR skaters have really started to not just accept me but respect me as a skater too. It's great for the confidence, among other things!
Well, I'll leave it there for today, but I'm back, and feeling good! Will weigh in and see the damage tomorrow when my sleep is sorted out (well, maybe! The final's on pretty early!)

I'm too off-balance to plan the rest of my day just yet. I'll fill it in in the comments when I get around to it. I will also promise to be more honest and faithful to you, blog, and to you, my dear reader, who continues to inspire me with your commitment when my own is off balance *loveheart*
