hello everybody!
I am doing well, although tired after what seems like a really long week. Praise God for Fridays! My new work regime is that I do funding applications on Fridays, so that is today's task - I quite like it actually as there is lots of creativity involved (what new project can i think up next to catch the funders' eye) but also it is quite satisfying to actually finish the thing and get the form filled in and the accounts and other paperwork together, get it in an envelope, queue at the Post Office for a stamp and put it in the post box. it makes me feel as if I am accomplishing something (although of course it would be more rational to look at how much cash I get in, but that is too long term for me....
)
food has been a bit medium. I have got terrible....errr...wind
and I dont know what caused it! I have just switched to a new type of soya milk (I dont do well with cow's milk), and I ate a lot of veg yesterday...but not that much!!!
Oh well, lets hope that one blows itself out
I had trout for lunch yesterday which was nice, and pasta for tea as it was another late night. Tonight I have bought a pizza to share for tea, so that is 8 points per half pizza - I will have a salad with and that should do me. Tomorrow I have been invited out to lunch with a friend - he wants my old oven which I replaced a couple of months ago (it is electric and I bought a gas one - cant stand cooking in an electric oven). So I am delivering that to him and he is doing lunch. He knows about my eating plan and is a bit of a foodie, but also a bit of a fitness fanatic (gay man thing.....you know how gym-obsessed they can be ). He was muttering about chicken salad, so that sounds as if it will be ok.
What else am I doing this weekend? well, a bit more gardening. Oh yes, I have decided how I want my study decorated (white walls, gold paint on the edging of the bookshelves, silver paint on the wood round the windows, white muslin curtains at the window, and a pale blue ceiling......Kitch? Yes!!!!
I am having cherubs and angels and clouds and lots of those hanging crystals which glint in the sun. Oh, and a windowbox which i shall plant up with white flowers - snow drops, lily of the valley, white crocuses, and white winter pansies. ) Well the way I see it, my study is my room to do what I like in - it is small and tucked away. For the rest of the house (alright then - the downstairs loo is a bit kitch too.....) for MOST of the rest of the house we have stuck to proper grown up decor.....and very nice and very expensive and very, well, grown up it is too. But in my study, i want a little bit of heaven
So that is what I am going to do!!
Love to everyone! There are some people a bit conspicuous by their absence...I hope that doesnt mean things are not going well...post ladies! let us know how you are doing!
