Challenge Failed

Well I only lasted a week and a half.  I'm really upset with myself.  I'm not sure if I could have continued with it or not though.

Yesterday I woke up and everything hurt - my muscles and joints.  My muscles feel like they are all bruised and my joints just ache.  I'm still getting on with things though, going to work and such.  I'm not sure what brought on the ache, I'm just hoping it's not a flare up.

My boyfriend's 21st birthday was a success last week.  We went to London for the day, explored Camden market again, nearly bought the whole of Forbidden Planet, and ate our weight in ribs at Bodeans.  On Saturday he had all of his dad's side of the family round for a BBQ which was very nice indeed, and this Sunday he's having his mum's side of the family round for another BBQ.  More trains!!  I love trains.

My computer is still trying to fix itself.  Good old fashioned Check Disc.  Everyone I've spoken to about it though have said to just scrap it and buy a new and more reliable one.  I think I will once I've backed up all of my data though, if I can back it up when it finishes.

Oh well... Train soon :)

New Challenge!

So I set myself a new challenge last weekend: wake up at 6:15 on weekdays and 7:00 on weekends (because nobody is up at 6:15 on the weekend) for 30 days and see how I feel.  I did really well last week; I woke up at 6:15 every day.

I got a lot done today because I got up so early.  I had my hair trimmed, did some shopping, went to the library and the post office.  All before 11.  Usually I'm not up until 11.  It gave me the rest of the day to work on my computer (the SSD is corrupted I think so I lost my OS as well as some games.  Luckily most of my data was on my 2TB HDD).  I managed to get Windows 7 onto a partition on my HDD made on Ubuntu.  Got to love USB Live Ubuntu.

This evening my fingers, feet and knees have started aching.  My fingers are warm and it hurts to move them, as with my feet.  It's only a dull ache at the moment, but it's worse than usual.  I'm not sure if this is a side effect of waking up early, but I kind of hope it is.  Because the only other possibility is an arthritis flare.  It's too late to be virus related because I had a cold last week and it should be out of my system by now; I'm not showing any symptoms of the cold any more.
