Operation Roxy is a journey to a lower weight with an intermediate goal of fitting into my size 16 Roxy Jeans. This has eluded me for over 12 months, but I am determined to wear them in 2007.

Long Walk and a Dicky Hip
Yesterday was another beautiful Sydney day. The sky was blue the sun was shining and it was mostly spent with friends.
We started the day going on a cruise with some of Jason's friends down through the local national park past the river (where we stopped for photos and a chat) and on to Palm Beach. No time to stop at my fav cafe this time though.
We were quickly off to meet with some other friends at the Mona Vale Hotel for lunch. I had an indulgent Beef Burger and a divine Chocolate Rocher Mousse cake. The waitress said it's called the Oh My God cake and I gotta agree. Yummy!
I came home a bit of a rest some waxing and I had to check emails and then I went for a really long walk. I walked all the way from Belrose to Dee Why Beach. About 10kms. That is HUGE for me and unfortunately my hip flexor has really suffered for it. I knew when I got to Beacon Hill that my hip was having issues but by the time I got to Dee Why I was in agony. This morning I can hardly walk!
I will do that walk more often though. I will do it with bathers so I can go for a swim when I get there too.
Sydney's beaches are just so pretty.
Now today I have discovered there is no cola of any sort in this house. This makes for an extremely grumpy Jadey and I do not have the ability with my current hip situation to resolve it! I hate the fact that I buy 2 x 18 packs of coke and everyone else drinks it. More that I find half empty coke cans around the place. What a waste!
I think however the time is coming for me to move back. I think waiting for Jason to sell the house will leave me waiting a long time. Me being away has gone from making us closer to making us fight again. More in frustration that neither of us know what we can do to make everything in our lives perfect. I know there are going to be things that I am unhappy about (like having Storm outside) but I can hopefully work through a few things with Jean and be a bit more "at home". I am going to ask that Storm be allowed in downstairs only at night or bad weather (hot or raining) We will see how we go.
I have applied for a few jobs and we will see how things pan out.
When I move there will be parties at both ends :P any excuse for a get together.
