I'm trying, that's all I can say! Had egg on toast for breakfast and chicken, chips and peas for dinner yesterday, that could've been a better dinner I guess but it also could've been worse.
On a positive, I managed 60 minutes on the recumbent bike which gave me a numb bum :)
57 active minutes, I'll take that, especially as I've spent the weekend in pain, the beauty of the recumbent bike is it supports my back.
I spent an hour wrapping the Christmas gifts I've bought, not going mad this year, just a handful of small things each and that's me done. Aryn wants cash so his dad can sort that :) When I was asked what I want, I have no idea at all, other than slippers because last years pair, the sole is coming off. How lucky am I not to 'want' anything. Don't get me wrong a new laptop would be nice but this one will do until it breaks, same with my phone, it's on constant low power mode to make the battery last longer, but it works, so it'll do. Oh how I've changed, I used to have the latest, new iphone when it was released, these days as long as it works!
I did treat myself and have my nails done yesterday at Facebook Glamazon, smiled on the night when I realised the colour matches the cats :)
I'm really pleased with them, they've taken over a year to grow, since having them painted it's helped as it reminds me not to bite them! They've come a long way since I had them done the first time on 12th September, I'm proud of myself and grateful to the girls at Glamazon for putting up with me and taking care of me.
Cereal for breakfast possibly or toast or maybe eggs, I can't decide, I have a couple of hours yet so I can think about it, I've been wide awake since 4am, woke up as stiff as a board, my back just seizes up in the night and turning over is a real experience. The joys of aging!
Anyway on a brighter note, I'm getting excited, it's 33 sleeps till Christmas, I spotted a lovely decorated tree at the weekend when we popped to Boundary Mills and I'm considering treating myself to some blue baubles and changing our tree this Christmas. I love to decorate my tree and changing the colour is cheaper than buying a second tree isn't it. See how grown up and practical I can be lol.
At least there's no calories in baubles!
Time to get me another mug of tea, get set up for my day, I'm watching I'm a Celeb, no way on earth would I do that eating challenge, not for all the money in the world, I'd rather be hard up, crazy folk. I think we've finally found a pizza Elle wouldn't eat!
Here's to a tremendous Tuesday, 5 weeks today Christmas day will be done, keep that in mind when you're spending money, if you can't afford it don't buy it, don't get into debt for one day. Christmas can be done on the cheap. Our turkey last year only cost me ten euros from Lidl's and it was delicious, it's just a roast dinner isn't it, I don't go crazy, gravy hides everything!
Mwah, luv ya
Love me x
