First Fridays

So First Friday of 2014

 

So my day started well with weetabix, milk and banana – both Healthy Extras sorted early.

I am back at work now, so after breakfast, which also involved some tea, I logged onto my laptop and checked email, did expenses and admin and generally had a tidy up of my desktop and email before the real work hits – but then, an RFP arrived and I volunteered to help the Sales guy with it – so, I was immersed in reading it after a short call to discuss the background. Yep, officially essential but quite dull as mornings go :)

At lunchtime I managed to take the hounds out, and get wet, cold and hailed on. Really the hail was pea sized - photo below! Henry didn’t mind, but Harry seemed relieved to get into the house and onto a warm bed - here they are after there walk and a long rub with a towel to get them dry:

 

I also managed a large portion of homemade wholemeal pasta arrabiata – yummy (it had a whole red pepper, whole green pepper, garlic, tomatoes, and a whole chopped fresh red chilli in there - so plenty of super free).

After more reading and note making I popped into town and grabbed some bits I missed off my shopping list, due to my brother coming for dinner later.

A bit more work, and I managed to fit in collection of a prescription, cooking of dinner and some snack-tastic time too. Snack was a yogurt and a bag of french fries (6 syns all together):

I also sat with my son, so UCAS application checked and in with added additional Universities as options, dinner for tomorrow planned, some items still outstanding on my tick list but hey ho, a good start to being back at work and on plan.

My brother turned up for dinner, pre warned that I am back on SW and he is very very welcome, but would have to eat SW friendly with me :) So we had SW Chicken curry, brocolli, rice and I did have some syns in the form of a glass of red (6 syns):

 Then we sat up talking till late, and I eventually got into bed and was asleep in seconds, first Friday of 2014 done, on plan - YAY.

So tomorrow I have a busy day planned, and my food planned also - it is apparently going to rain all day so more getting wet looks likely, I will need a boat and have to teach the hounds to paddle alongside it if it doesn't stop raining soon......

Good week end to each of you x
