Time! We only get so much....

Wednesday 1st May 2024

Yesterday was a good day!  Diet wise it went well, I'm on course for a good week, but life was good yesterday too.  I was reminded that time is the most important thing we have, when I went back to the huddle on the evening I left them both messing with a motorcross bike that's been in the shed for a few years because there was nowhere for Aryn to ride it here unlike in Ireland.  When I returned two hours later, they were still at it and it made me really happy to see them doing something together, I hope they manage to get it running, he thinks it needs a battery or it's something else, but he'll sort it, it's not been ridden for over 3 years.  I've also found somewhere he can ride it once it's working, but first he'll need all new kit because he's now 2 foot taller than when he got it!  

I'm so proud of him, he's doing really well at school too, he came down later to show me where he's marking in his imedia subject, on course for a distinction, to say how much school as been missed and moving countries, I think that's amazing! 

Foodwise, I kept it simple, we had a leftover chicken bap for lunch, 

Then I made a pie with the leftover beef and I chuckled whilst making it on the afternoon, last week when I made the lamb pie I used a block of Jus-Rol shortcrust pastry and rolled it out myself, this time I used ready rolled from Aldi and it was crap, as I rolled it out it cracked, when I picked it up to use it, it was stretching and coming apart, well it just gave me the giggles, I couldn't stop, I couldn't find a dish the right side so ended up using this massive, deep dish so the pastry didn't come high enough up the side, but the bits that fell off I used to make it up (I'm laughing again now) I felt like I was playing with playdo and making something a kid would make the smile of the pie was a bit of the pastry that just come away in my hands as it stretched.  It didn't cook great either, but it tasted alright.  

We ate it anyway, but it cost me a lot of calories because I used two packets and we had a quarter each!  I wouldn't do it again! 

My week so far, 

I've gotta lose a pound tomorrow ain't I looking at them numbers?!  We shall see.

I feel good for being back in control anyways, that's the most important thing.

Today I'm thinking pork and spaghetti in a tomato style sauce, I remember having similar at Facebook Momma Sorrentis and it was delicious, I might stick it in the slow cooker actually, mmm good idea. 

Anyway, physio done, I'm ready for the day, let's start May with passion and make it aMAYzing :) 

Mwah, luv ya 

Love me
