Gotta love sleep!

Thursday 29th September 2022

Sleep is sometimes the best medicine.

I've had a lie in, well I got up at 6.10am which is a lie in for me, I'm not going swimming this morning, one because I wanted to try and sleep in and catch up on my sleep and also my shoulder joints are sore so I'm gonna give them a few days to calm down.  I may have been swimming, but I've not been taking care of myself in other ways the last few weeks so that changes today!  

I've already enjoyed my breakfast, bacon and mushroom omelette and the nicest orange, if all oranges tasted like that, I'd happily eat them daily, thanks Kim for my orange, you've encouraged me to go and buy some today.  I am glad I'm still in my PJs though because it went everywhere, so I'll need a bib to eat them going forward!  On a real positive, I'm 2 portions up for my fruit and veggies intake today.

Let's talk Christmas, shall we? NO!  Well, I'm going to because it's only 12 weigh-ins away and that's crazy talk.  I know I'm an overgrown child, but I've started loving Christmas, last year was amazing and even though I'm not sure what our plans are this year, and my tree is in the Ireland house, I still plan to make sure it's a truly special one!  86 SLEEPS - eek!

Today's the last day of a pet free house, I've just stood making a cuppa and realised if they live as long as Elle's cat did, I'll be in my late 60s, that's a scary thought that makes me realise my age!

I had a boy with a poorly belly yesterday so we didn't have the toad in the hole, hopefully we'll get it today, I plan to add brocolli and some peas to the plate, if I've got some frozen onions left in the freezer, I'll make me a bit of onion gravy too, so there's 3 more portions of veggies.  Not easy this 8 a day they recommend now!  Yep 3 fruit and 5 veggies, at the hospital there were posters of the Food Tree of Nutrition.  

We all just need to work on our portion size because we eat too much!  

Anyway, I need to get dressed for work, this lying in is fun but I've gotta leave in 45 minutes!

Mwah, luv ya 

Love me xx
