Shall we shine?

Monday 11th October 2021

If you're going to rise you may as well shine!

Monday morning and I'm about to conquer the day and do battle with the house work, I'm feeling like a declutter kind of day, starting with the wardrobes!  

I've had another lovely weekend, drove to Ironbridge yesterday morning had a walk and some breakfast, mmm to bacon, brie and cranberry ciabatta!  That kept us going until tea time when we had my sisters epic cheese pie with some veggies, no clue to the calories of it but come one some days you just enjoy the food.  On a positive I had an alcohol free day yesterday and I've enjoyed a cracking nights sleep, getting up just before 7, went to bed early too, so I'm feeling all refreshed, no wonder I'm ready to conquer the day.

I'll be interested to see what the scales say tomorrow as I haven't been tracking but I haven't been ridiculously bad either, so it'll see if I'm getting better at controlling my food intake or if I still need to sort myself out a little.  I think possibly the latter, I'm remembering the chocolate that was consumed that I don't normally have, plus the takeaway Thursday night!  

Today I'm making my 40 cloves of garlic chicken, Chicken with 40 Cloves of Garlic (behappyowls.com) might even do it as a live in our FB group for our Huddle members. 

I need to go get stuff done, I need to get ready for the meetings this week before I start on the house, that's more important, priorities and all that, good old to do list about to be started I think. 

75 days to Christmas, that's truly crazy!  10 weeks and 5 days, I'm glad I don't have to buy lots of gifts, even better that I'm going away now so don't have to decorate or any of that lol. 

Let's not think about that, let's focus on today, not having a supermarket delivery this week, going to live off what's in the fridge/freezer and kitchen cupboards, I reckon if I try and make it to the end of the month without shopping that'll pay for Alfie's jab and pet certificate for his holiday. 

Here's to the 3 meals ahead of me, one meal, one day at a time.  We got this!

Mwah, luv ya 

Love me x
