Nite nite orl

I've gotta remember to put my next grocery order in tomorrow as well as my Amazon order for the light shades while I'm waiting for my home insurers to get back to me with an answer to my question.


I'm absolutely shattered this evening, but I'm proud of myself for limiting my snacking.  I'm thinking tomorrow will be a day of hot chocolates rather than water, to please my sweet tooth though.


I've already put the bags in front of the door ready for tomorrow's groceries, so it's one less thing for me to remember.


I can barely keep my eyes open, so I'm gonna shut down and head to beddy-byes now.


I'll see you all in the morning.


Nite nite orl

Today's (1st December 2025) lunch photo

Today's lunch, like most Monday's, was the leftovers from Sunday lunch with my in-laws which today was 2 servings of a vegetarian family roast, 3 broccoli stems and a portion of garden peas, all washed down with a 500ml glass of water.


Will this be my only solid meal this week??

Today's (1st December 2025) breakfast photo

I did my weekly weigh-in this morning and I'm more than 2kg overweight so it'll be another week with mainly liquids, starting with today's 500ml glass of water for breakfast.  I've also had a mug of hot honey to try and kick the last of my cold to the kerb.


Here's today's breakfast photo:

Mornin' all

I've woken up completely achey and sore, taken my Visible reading which gave me a score of 2 out of 5 for today, taken my blood pressure which was out of my range again, popped my morning pills, had my breakfast and weighed myself.  My weight is 2.3kg above where I want it to be and the medical bods are happy with, so it's twice a day laps again this week.  The virus scan was still reassuringly clear too.


Gotta remember to bring the rubbish and recycling containers back in when they've been emptied today and there was something else that I was supposed to do too, but can't for the life of me remember what it was!  


Time to get today's to-do list together now I reckon.
