Cheekychinchilla's food and stuff

I've been with my boyfriend for 11 years and I still don't understand him lol.
It must be very frustrating for you though......I don't know how I would feel only seeing my guy every few weeks.
Men eh?! X

I'm at least glad you understand. Once or twice a week isn't crazy, right? I mean, I know there are STILL circumstances, but.... *sigh* I'm sick of saying and thinking "Things will get better. They will. They really will"
Oh I don't think I'll ever understand guys, just like they don't get us. But we're barely an inch from the starting line and don't appear to be going anywhere. I think the tortoise is going to lap us.... ;)
 
My food for today is back a page, lol. But I'm soooooo hungry again today! I refuse to eat anything else though. Just over an hour ago I had a bowl of porridge. I'm blaming my hunger on having a cold. But it is getting a bit silly! Going to go to bed so I don't eat something else in a min :p Just watching the end of Scott Pilgrim!
Today I've watched The Skin I Live in (rather disturbing, but fascinating), Troll Hunter (one of my favourite films), and now Scott Pilgrim (probably my favourite live action film now), not to mention catching up on How I Met Your Mother, New Girl, and Suburgatory. A very successful couch day I reckon :D
 
Saturday: Stupid b*stard germs :( Have had to cancel my plans for tonight. I hate letting people down and even though it was last minute I was really looking forward to it :( :sign0137: So yeah, moping on the couch watching tv (currently Buffy) is my plan of the day. Grumble Grumble.

Food: To make me feel better I'm having a proper green day ;) ALL THE HEX's ARE MINE!!!!!!!!!! :sign0151: And 15syns today coz it's the weekend.

Lunch: 2 Linda M sausages, half ton if spaghetti, loads of crispy potatoes, cheesy scrambled egg (half a HexA), wholemeal toast, and bbq sauce.

Tea: Pasta N Sauce, veggie kiev, cheese, microwave veg pack (carrots, peas, and sweetcorn)

Snack: Haven't decided yet, but judging by the last week it is likely to be gingerbread porridge ;) Went with an Oaty bar coz I feel way too full for porridge tonight. And a Funsize pack of Maltesers :)

Drinks: Coke Zero. Coffee. Hazelnut Coffee. Highlights Fudge hot chocolate.

HexA: cheese + Almond Milk/
HexB: Bread + Oaty Bar
Syns used: 12.5
Syns saved: 11.5
Exercise: Ermmmm.....

I tried on both my pairs of size 12 jeans last night. One pair are quite stretchy and the other are definitely skinny. They fit! They both FIT :happy036::faint2:

Also, toying with the idea of wiping off the syns I saved before today seen as I'm not going out. Might help towards the indulgences of earlier in the week? Hmmmmm....

And also also, how have I never seen this smiley before?? :rant2: Will no doubt come in handy as I continue to rant about my supposed boyfriend ;)
 
Hurray for teeny jeans!!!!! You must be so happy! I know how you feel on the cancelling front- I couldn't go on my work's meal out (which I organised!) because I was too ill last night. So annoying! Going to a bonfire with my niece and nephew tonight, still feeling absolutely rotten but bonfire night is one of my favourite nights of the year, mainly because I'm a weirdo and Guy Fawkes is my hero, haha. I'd feel weird if I didn't go and see some fireworks! I think you should treat yourself with at least some of your saved syns- I saved loads for the meal last night and there's no way I'll scoff them all this weekend, but I am at least going to treat myself a bit :) Hope you're having a good weekend despite the germs xx
 
I dunno. I don't feel like I've earned my saved syns because of 3 days of being kinda off plan at the beginning of the week. Will see how I feel later and decide. Will definitely save/use my syn allowance for the weekend days tho :)

I love firework displays too! Not a fan of non-official/at home displays though coz I had my hair set on fire one year :rolleyes: But as long as they're a safe distance away I can enjoy lol. Luckily my dogs are good with fireworks. Dave loves them and Ellie couldn't care less lol. Won't be going out this weekend though. So sad coz I missed the Halloween Parade last week being in work and prob wont get to see any fireworks this year. Will have to wait for the NYE sparklers :p

Oh and thanks about the 'teeny jeans'. I'm really trying hard to see them as that and I must admit I did kinda have an 'oh!' moment when I put them on :)
 
Oh, I'm sure you all want to know this, but I know you'll understand. I've been really bloated and 'windy' this week. The wind thing isn't anything new ;) But I never get bloated. Can't say I've eaten unusually or anything. And I have stuffed my face a bit the last couple of days, but again, nothing unusual. Just feels a bit odd. And I have a nice comfort food tea planned for tonight but I'm still REALLY full from lunch :confused:
 
I've been like that the past couple of days too, and I'm starting to think it might be due to being poorly and run-down. Things just don't tend to work as well for me when I'm ill! And if you've been taking medicine to help with the germiness, that might have added to the bloating. Try drinking lots of peppermint or chamomile tea if you have any in, and drinking more water too. Hope you feel better soon! xx
 
Ok, I'm keeping the saved syns because I'm not well and I feel chocolate my greatly aid my recovery ;)

I've not been taking any meds. Haven't even bothered with my anti-inflammatories coz I've not exactly been exercising. Dunno what it is! I think we're out of peppermint tea, I'll have to get some tomorrow. It's always the first to run out ;)
 
Sunday: Last day of a sort of good week lol! Gonna do an EE day and I have a massive 26.5 syns to use. YAY ;) Think we're going to do a roast today and now I know stuffing is really low in syns I'll be getting some of that ;)
Need to make my soup for work too. It'll be spicy garlic, onion, carrot, butternut squash, and sweet potato soup :D I was tempted to buy some crackerbread or something to go with it, but they only do giant packs I'll never use. I like having stuff with soup, but might be extra good and just have giant bowls of it for lunch. With some fruit for afters.

Still feel pretty rubbish, but need a few bits from the shop. Will be the first time I've gone out (further than the garage!) since Thurs afternoon. Don't wanna go outside! It's cold :gen125:

Todays food: EE Day + 15syns + 11.5 saved syns.

Lunch: Gingerbread porridge, raisins and dried apple (little 14g kids ones), banana, Splenda, and 130ml Almond Milk.

Tea: A roast :D Quorn steak, mash, roasties, mixed veggies (broccoli, peas, carrots, green beans, and cauliflower), sprouts, stuffing, gravy, horseradish and picalilli.

Thursday: I feel awful today. Had a falling out with the boy last night and I'm so tired, and stressed, and fed up of it all. It really shouldn't be this hard :( My anxiety is insane today as well :cry:
Trying to calm my brain down by reading some lectures for my VCA course. The boringness helps ;) But the lack of info and general terribleness of the course infuriates me lol! But I was given an actual mentor (my boss, the head nurse, has been signed off work sick so other nurses are stepping in to help out) on Monday and I did some dispensary/pharmacy work on Tuesday and I think it's given me some motivation to get back to it. I really like doing dispensary and getting prescriptions together and I do it a lot of a weekend. The difference is of a weekend you have 2 vets at most consulting/asking for meds and it's quite laid back and stuff. But on a week day? Omg it is SO difficult! The drugs bit is fine, but you have up to 5 vets consulting, repeats being phones through, people collecting repeats/drugs prescribed Out Of Hours, people buying preventive stuff, and the bit I find the most difficult is all the stuff you have to ask and tell the client when you hand out drugs and stuff. There's just so much! I had 2 separate 'attacks' of pretty bad palpitations being in there :( :eek: But anyway, it's something I have to do and I'm sure it'll get easier.... Hopefully!

Hugs to you. Don't mean to put a spendthrift on things but you're right, it shouldn't be this hard so early on in your relationship :(
This should be the fun part...getting butterflies and stuff ( or maybe that's just me lol)

I take it you've spoke to him about it? Xxxx
