52 things I ♥- week 6

I can hear my BL challenge buddies groaning now. FFS she is on about the shoes AGAIN!

I <3 my new ugly shoes and Calais <3s them too!

So I started a biggest loser challenge over at All for Women. Joined the gym last week and was all set to go. One problem I have always had is shin splints when on the treadmill, so I was never really able to do much more than a fast walk due to the pain. I’ve always been a nike girl, just buying what ever looked pretty. So I thought I would go and get properly fitted and see if that helped.

It was a big decision to spend $180 on such ugly arse shoes, even the pink couldn’t save them. But I am soo glad I did, they have made a HUGE difference.

Way to go to the girls who have lost weight this week in our challenge! You can join in too if you like, not too late if you want some friendly help and support losing some of those extra kilos.

52 things I ♥- week 5

OK, so it’s a week late..but shhh don’t tell anyone ok ;)

This is my roof, my dirty roof and I <3 it very much. Particularly because it does not leak.

I live in Western Sydney, near Blacktown and in my area there are entire suburbs with houses covered in tarps with damaged and leaking roofs. The first major hail storm hit on the 9th of December, and we have had many more storms in the last few weeks with flooding rains and high winds. Making life hell for those still living under traps. These people are still waiting for much needed repairs, and they could be waiting for many months to come.
