My 30 Days

Today’s Prompt:

A picture of you from last year + this year + how have you changed since then?

Due to the wonders of Flickr – I can do better – I have a 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 picture and I’ve changed lots lol.

2007 – taken at my G-ma’s Birthday Party. Me, Rich and my Cousins lined up in front of the mirror, we were armed with cameras or phones lol.

2008 – I’d been to see Julie and Julia, I came home and really wanted to cook – so I did lol. I took photos of me cooking scrambled eggs on toast and then some cakes.

2009 – Not sure why but I was taking pictures of my earrings while sat in the car (the garage in the background is down the road from my Mum’s house lol)

2010 – this was taken about two or three weeks ago – The Kiwi bought some new curlers and I was the guinea pig!

So what’s changed about me?

The main two things – I’ve probably put on weight and my hair has changed that’s about it when it comes to the differences – and in a week my hair might have changed again as I’m going to dye it red – although I am questioning my choice of dye – I think I might just have to get on with it and see how vibrant it comes out and then wash it lots if it’s too bright lol.

Having posted my pictures though – my glasses got changed in 2008 (I think I got new glasses as my main birthday present from my parents!)

However I am doing something about the weight thing too – I am trying to cut out biscuits, cakes, sweets and junk food. Given the amount of rubbish I do eat – I’m allowing myself to have junk for one meal a week as sort of a treat for being good the rest of the week – that should work right?

So far I’ve not been doing very good but yesterday I cooked scrambled eggs and toast for tea for me and Chris. I think this is one occasion when the local supermarket won out against the corner shop. The eggs we got from the corner shop were from caged birds and were on the small side. I’d rather may a little bit more for free range eggs, after dinner we discussed this and decided that in future although it’s a bit further to walk to the supermarket we’d get free range eggs where possible. (I’ve been a free range egg kinda girl for a while).
