Wide awake! Well awake, not sure about the wide...

Saturday 6th May 2023

Positive vibes only.

It's 5am and I've been awake an hour, not because I want to be, but the snoring gorilla beside me is also restless and I couldn't lie there anymore.  Plus my pains giving me jip, I had a bath in Epsom salts yesterday hoping that would help but it didn't do anything.  On a positive note, I'm possibly finally getting somewhere with my pain, the physio is escalating me to a more specialised physio and asking for one with Rheumatoid arthritis expertise!  It'll take time to get the appointment I know but it's progress.

Almost managed to stay within my calories too, minus 11 over the day, that's not bad at all is it, I'll take that.  This was our dinner, presentation could do with some work I'm aware but damn it was tasty, it was a little 'hot' for me but I coped, drunk some water to cool me down, would put less cayenne pepper in next time and it'd be perfect, really easy to make too.  I didn't put the olive oil in the tomato and onion salad either, I'm not a fan of oily salads.

We're making scones today, Aryn missed making them in Food Nutrition at school this week, so I've said we can make them, I'll get the ingredients this morning and we can make them after our huddle.  We're doing our chat early at 9.30 so anyone who wants to go and watch the Coronation has plenty of time to get home.  Mary Berry seems to be the recipe of choice from my facebook friends Mary Berry's scones recipe - BBC Food so that's the one I'll try, now I know there's a scone cutter somewhere in this house or shed but finding it will be a mission, I supposed I could use a knife and make square ones :) 

Anyway, I haven't even had a cuppa yet, so I'm gonna go put the kettle on, we were supposed to be having a BBQ today with the neighbours but we've agreed the forecast sucks so unless by some miraculous turn of events the sun comes out and the rain disappears all together, we'll do it another time. 

I'm sure we'll find a way to enjoy the day and I hope you do too.

Mwah, luv ya 

Love me x
