Hey Ragers and Ragettes!
I hope that you are having a great Tuesday! Tuesdays to me are nothing days. My theory is that every day has a feeling
except for a Tuesday. Mondays are the
dreaded days (not for me!!), Wednesdays are the halfway point, Thursdays are
exciting because it’s the day before Friday, Fridays are awesome because it’s
the end of the working week, Saturdays are respite and rest days and Sundays
are strange because they are the day you have to get everything ready for the
upcoming week. Tuesdays? No feeling at all!!!
Anywho, I digress!!
Well last night I had a fantastic sleep!!! I had been having some troubles sleeping
recently, well since I have moved in with Simon. First, the blinds that were fitted at our window
are not blocking the sun out enough. The
window in our room has the sun blaring in during morning hours. It’s not very pleasant! So I remedied that with a pink pretty
princess sleep mask! Second, Simon
snores and I mean snores. This doesn’t
sound human. It sounds like one of his
chainsaws that he sells!! Christ it’s
not human what comes out of him at night!!!
So I have invested in some heavy duty silicon earplugs. They mould to the shape of your ear and
create a plug so no sound comes in.
Amazing!!!
But I found that I still couldn’t sleep. So I yesterday when we were having a laugh
with Keith and Errol it dawned on me what was keeping me awake!
Each night with my dinner I have been having a can of Diet
Coke with citrus in it....amazing! I
love it!!! But this obviously has
caffeine in it so hence, no sleep for Betty!!
Last night I didn’t have that and I went to sleep cuddled in
Simon’s arms wearing my pretty princess sleep mask and ear plugs and slept like
a baby!!! It was amazing!!!
So I got up, kissed Simon softly and went to get my keys to
drive to the gym. Well, because Simon
drove my car yesterday with me in it, I forgot my car keys and keys to work on
my desk at work!!!! I took my spare key
and 5:55am this morning I was off to the gym!
I like going to the gym in the morning because it is out of
the way then for the day. As you all
know I am trying to lose some weight. It’s
been going ok. I have enlisted help from
a Fitbit. It’s a black bracelet that
counts your steps and you log your activity, food intake and sleep. And from that it tells you how many calories
to consume if you want to lose weight. Result!!!
I lost 4 pounds to begin with and then I
have gained 7 back but I weighed myself this morning and I have lost 1
pound. I need to get my head out of my
ass and do this!!!! So I am now eating practically
bunny food but I am going to treat myself on the weekend. But I am craving burgers. I want a big dirty burger with bacon, cheese,
more bacon and more cheese with more cheese and bacon. But my waistline is a reminder that this isn’t
a good idea....but it is only as a treat.
So I have dedicated myself going back to the gym.
My new gym is ok. In
my last job it was filled with pretentious stuck up skinny bitches so it was a
bit intimidating to go. But this gym is
great! St Helens isn’t a very glamorous
place so it’s just filled with people who want to keep their heads down and
have a good workout.
The ladies’ changing room is clean, has a sunbed (Betty Rage
doesn’t do sun beds!!! I love my porcelain
skin!!), and hair dryers!! It’s really
nice and less than half the price I was paying at the pretentious skinny bitch
gym.
The workout equipment is new, clean and used properly. There are no little scroatie scum bags that
go so people just want to go in and do a hard workout.
This morning I didn’t feel like doing a hard workout so I
did a short arm workout ad popped on the exercise bike with the intention of
doing 40 minutes. After 21 minutes I was
seriously bored. So I stopped the bike,
recorded the calories which I entered into my Fitbit app and decided to go and
walk a bit. I started the treadmill and
decided that I wanted to make it a bit more difficult. So I ramped up the incline to 5% and was
walking at 4kph. I slowly started to
ramp up the incline and the speed and before I know it I was a sweaty Betty
power walking at 5kph at a 10% incline and 252 calories and 30 minutes later I
had completed my workout. I logged it in
my Fitbit. Feeling smug I went to the changing rooms to shower off and get
fabulous!
So I got into the changing room I went to my locker and
opened it and my Julien MacDonald handbag flew out of my locker and hit me in
the head. I did have too many things in
my locker!!! I’m one of these people
that always has too many things to carry!!
It is quite irritating!!
So I managed to get my shower stuff out and cram all my
items back into the locker, put my padlock on with the woman next to me
chuckling to herself.
I had my shower (which was amazing!!) and I got back to get
myself glammed up for a good day’s work.
I towel dried myself and put my cocoa butter on (That is the
beauty product I swear by!!! I love
cocoa butter!!!!! I use Palmers. It is thick, creamy and smells delish!!!) and
then proceded to get myself ready for work.
Well, as I had just had my shower and put cocoa butter on
and as the changing room was quite warm,
I encountered a slight problem....Basically I am wearing my favourite vintage
dress and when I wear it I have to wear my full body sucking in knickers to
even out the lumps and bumps. (Hence why
I am going to the gym. I cannot wait
until I throw out these sucking in knickers!!!)
The changing room was very humid so when I was putting my sucking in
knickers due to the high amount of humidity in the changing room, my sucking in
knickers were not going on very easily.
So there I am, Ragers and Ragettes, trying to put my sucking in bodysuit
on in a very humid room...I am hopping and jumping around the chainging room as
the women in the changing room were giggling to themselves. And to make this even more humiliating, I
slip on a wet patch and fall flat on my arse in my sucking in pants and bra!!! My mentor Elena would defo say that isn’t
goddess like!!!
So what did I do?
I did what any fashionista would do. I got up, and announced, the things I do to
look good! And I put my vintage dress
on, did my hair and make up and I strutted my arse out of that changing room in
my 5 and a half inch leopard print stilettos with my oversized sunglasses. The girls in the changing room smiled and
winked at me in what seemed to be appreciation.
See Ragers and Ragettes? If you make a major faux pas and you just pick
yourself up and tell yourself that you are fabulous you can pull it off!! Maybe is that the true definition of being a
goddess??
Anywho, I am having a fab day with Simon, Keith and Errol
and looking forward to going home and spending quality time with my man. But I still am missing my girlie time with Suzanne. Sigh.
So until next time, stay fabulous Ragers and Ragettes!!
Lots of Love
The Fabulous Betty Rage xxxxxxxxxxx
