Create a life that feels good on the inside, not one that
just looks good on the outside.
Yay, I lost a pound, I’ll take that, especially as I didn’t
really get on track till Tuesday and even then I wasn’t perfect. Here’s to an improved week, yesterday started
with a delicious omelette before my morning meeting which was awesome. Then once I’d had my massage, I was good for
nothing, I just about managed to put some butternut squash fries in the oven
with a few chicken sausages for dinner but that was me done.
I spent the rest of the day in front of the tv with my
crocheting and had a slice of bread and a pack of prosciutto for my tea. Even
Alfie didn’t want to walk in that horrible weather yesterday, I’ve got a feeling
we’ll be having a good walk this morning.
I’ve sat here already for over an hour messing about on the
internet, pinterest, facebook etc, I do have to admit I like doing that though,
it’s a relaxing way to start my day, I’m looking for inspiration and
ideas. This morning though I’ve mostly
been playing Candy Crush. The theme for
today is definitely slow, I’m thinking pottering in my kitchen, cooking some
food, then crochet and chilling with mom.
What I have done this week is keep a timesheet for work, I’ve
also made a conscious effect to keep my office hours controlled so that I do
keep time for me, it’s worked really well and I plan to keep doing it, I need
the balance, I want to enjoy doing things I enjoy, the odd half hour here and
there. I usually don’t start doing something
unless I’ve got hours to do it, but this week has made me realise talking just 15
minutes and having a break really does make a difference.
I’m also doing the budget thing with my money, I’m doing a
sort of audit on my life I guess, seeing where I’m spending money and if I need
to spend so much, if I need to spend it at all.
I’ve had a lot of work done on my house over the last year, I plan to
start on the garden next and the reason I can afford it is because for the last
3 years we haven’t had any holidays, I’ve not really gone anywhere or done
anything, thankfully instead of just wasting the money I would’ve used for
those things, I’ve saved it and now I’ve enjoyed spending it on making the
space around me a nice place to be.
That dying cauliflower is definitely being cooked today, I’ll
revive it and make it edible, I’ve got some dying spuds too which I’ll use for
mash, mmm mash, one of my favourite things in the world. The freezer is emptying nicely, still a good
week or more of meals in there I reckon though.
Right I’m waffling and I now want bacon and mash potato
cakes for breakfast I think topped with a dry fried egg, mmm.
Hope you enjoy your day BeYOUtiful as much as I intend too,
happy Sunday.
