Sunday Stormy Sunday

Stormy Journeys

Woke up at 7.30am and my hubby went and made us tea, and bought it back to bed. So I had a lovely 30 mins playing on my iPad and drinking my tea to wake up nicely. Lovely. Then I struggled out of bed and prepared breakfast of sliced quorn sausages x 2 (2 syns), sliced baked potato from last night, mushrooms all in an omelette, accompanied by grilled tomato:

Well after that I managed to get to Zumba for 10am, my Sunday morning exercise fix. To be fair, I wasn’t really ‘feeling it’ this morning, I just knew I should go – so I did, I think that’s a major difference in me from years gone by, if I didn’t fancy exercise I would not have done it for anyone – but now I lean towards just getting on with it even when I don’t fancy doing so.

 Having zumba’d through my slight Sunday morning lethargy, I returned home, had a cup of tea and forced my achy muscles to head back out to walk the hounds. My son offered to help walk them, so at least I wasn’t trying to hold on to 3 leads with differing size and speed dogs on – which made it a far more pleasant walk.

Our house guest went home today, as her family are back from their holiday, so we headed back out to take her over to them…..then for a rest, feet up, a final cup of tea. Here is our house guest:

Unfortunately my rest was short lived, I would have cherished a short nap, but alas not to be – I had to change the beds, tidy my room, bit of hovering and pack my case to go to the Netherlands tomorrow morning. Now normally this would be fine, but given the storm warning out I was a little nervous about flying – which I am not normally, but as I was checking in on line, firstly it wouldn’t let me which was odd, then it seemed to check me in but when I checked my flight details it has moved me to a 5pm flight, when I was booked to go in the morning – so after some exploration turns out my flight is already cancelled and they have rebooked me for later in the day – so there we are, I have tomorrow to prepare for my flight and to work from home.

Having safely delivered Mia back to her family, and ticked the to do list in my head for the day, I started to think about dinner, and I really wanted a mini roast, so I made chicken breast, SW roast potatoes and parsnips, carrots, cauliflower, broccoli, and gravy – and it was delicious.

Blueberries and vanilla yogurt for pudding, which means I had another low syn day.

I am hoping I can keep up the good work whilst staying in a hotel this week. The good news is it has a lovely gym and pool, the bad news is it is hard to get on plan food as the chef puts all kinds of not listed items on your dinner – in line with most hotels I think. Well, I can but try.
