stray

I am cooking something called sticky chicken served with a stir fry and brown rice. Its a recipe from weigh it up australia, I doubt that dad will like it though... it has sweet chili and hosin sauce. We will see. It all smells nice will it taste nice? I hope so.

Write more after dinner...

going and going

I woke up, had breakfast, washed hair started working on my cards,its now twoish, i only stopped for a short lunch break and have been going and going and going.. i cut up the cats i drew, went through some folders and found more work to chop, only thing is i'm out of card stock.

So later after I have written here I am going to start christmas tags. I have 3 orders for them so far. I am aiming for the november market now, just local. I'd ultimately like to aim for the Hatch Market at the melbs library next year.

I know i am not supposed to be drinking coffee, I try to stick to one cup a day though that is no always the case. I will order all the herbs next week. I did a random thing yesterday,picked up a u2 cd, its ok. I have to watch rage and get re-educated with music again. I have only used half my i-pod capacity.

So I am straying from my diet tonight and having some ricotta and spinach pasta with a massive salad. For lunch today I had flat bread with salad and a tin of tuna. I was meant to have brown rice and tuna... but just didn't feel like it.

I feel like sitting in the sun. Perhaps the 4pm sun otherwise I burn. I used to just go brown and tan , now i just burn....

I better get back to it.

have a good day.

since then

SinceI last blogged not much has been going on. Just the usual, making cards, painting.. reading... sticking to some of my goals. I have almost lost 2kg. I know its not much but then I have not been for walks or swimming like i said I would. So I gots to start. I have signed up for this weigh it up australia my aim by the end of eight weeks is to be 103kg.. id like to be 100kg, so it's up to me to move it and lose it.

I read michael caines autobiography... im now reading another novel called Lessons in Letting go (confessions of a hoarder) by a funny lady corinne grant. Plus i bought gai waterhouses autobiography too. I felt week and over spent a lil bit. Oh well. Tonight we are having fish and salad for dinner.

I have been dreaming at night but I cant for the life of me remember them. Such is life. I will write more later alligator.

spring as sprung

Its beautiful to see that the seeds are sprouting up so well. Ive been giving them sun in day and put them under shelter at night. Although I had a quiet weekend. Did not do too much. I have sent two parcels off and sticking to a few of my every day goals so far out in the sun, reading a autobiography (michael cains) (its really intersting) and I have lost a bit of weight too, so these herbs im taking are helping me mum went a bit crazy and bought two more boxes of this powder. I take it half an hour before lunch and dinner and leaves me feeling full so I eat less.

So Im not going to go to high tea in the city as I would just completely sabotage myself. I am still making jams and chutneys but i'm giving them away as apposed to keeping them and adding them to yogurt or having it on a freshly sliced bread/rolls. There is another habit I am trying to break and that is coffee... I only like it with sugar and Iv gone from three cups to two cups a day now. I think if I keep it as a proper one once a day and then mint tea/ green tea. Ive got to kick coke too. Its a sugary substance that Im addicted to.

Anyhow, I will now leave it there, and go an do a lil painting.


cheers

saturday

Its saturday now and I stayed up til midnight, ergh needless to say i woke up at 6am but then slept in til 8am. I am reading a wheightloss book, its probably the first real slim dieting/change of eating book i've read. Ive got to lose weight, i have put no effort yet. So I have set a realistic goal of 10kg for the moment.


So i'm at home mum is at the cafe i decided to as per usual, stay home. I am trying to get out more I just can't bring myself to at times. Its glorious day, warm in the sun but freezing in the cold... brrr its 19 a little more than yesterday. Sat in the sun with lil scootie, she loves being outside when someones with her and at time sits like a lil diva on your back as you garden.

Off to go shopping shortly, for my lil nephews birthday present. I cant believe he will be 5, growing up superduper fast. Will write more later gator.
