Good evening guys and gals.
Here to update after a crazy busy wednesday.
But then, what day isn't crazy busy for me these days?!
Haha.
Even my day off is mental.
Anyway...
I overslept this morning and ended up getting to the gym half an hour later than I'd planned.
Obviously I needed the extra rest.
I walked to the gym anyway, instead of getting in the car, in order to earn some steps.
Did my routine, which I wasn't really feeling like doing this morning due to the later start and the heat, but I got there.
And the 8 minute run on the treadmill didn't seem as bad as usual.
Once done, I started filling out my application for a £9.50 Sun holiday.
Mum couldn't find her cheque book, so I suggested I'd do it online.
There was £1.90 charge to do it online, but sending it by post you have to buy a stamp yourself, and then stick on 60p postage charge as well... so really it's only working out 70p dearer - but a hell of a lot easier and more convenient and better.
Because usually when you book a holiday, you pick a number of dates and a number of locations and then they send back details of where and when you're going.
Doing it online (and it's for people who've had holidays through the sun before unfortunately), it was like a proper holiday site.
You chose dates and places, and then it gave you options of what was available when, for you to choose.
I managed to get my first choice place and date. So was happy.
However, I needed to get permission from work to have it off - so whilst working 12-4 today, I handed in a holiday form and got it approved - and managed to get home and book it. So yay!
I'm going to a Haven in Cumbria in October for the weekend.
Planning on climbing Scafell Pike on one of the days, and the boy doesn't know yet, but gonna head towards Blackpool on the other day as it was be in illumination season!
So, yeah.. work.
Work was hot.
I dislike wednesdays because I find it hard to figure out what and when to eat.
1130 is too early for lunch, but finishing work at 4 is too late.
Then I don't want dinner that early because I have classes from 6-7 and 7-8.
So today I had a bowl of golden grahams with milk for 4pp and a ww yoghurt for 1pp before leaving for work.
After work I popped into Morrisons to get some bits for mum and grandma (it's too hot for grandad to go out atm... he gets faint and she worries he's gonna collapse whilst they're out cuz he has done it a few times - so they're house bound atm).
I bought some grapes cuz they were £1 and scoffed half the packet on the way home, by which time it was almost half 5 and almost time for class.
But they filled me up so that covered that awkward time.
Just got back from class and had a ww chicken hotpot (6pp) which meant I'd unintentionally left myself with 12 points to use.
On sunday, I went to my local freezer shop and they had the 150ml tubs of ben & jerry's 2 for £1.
I'm not usually a fan of B&J and tend to rebel against them because they don't provide enough non chocolate flavours, but this one was Oh My! Apple Pie! flavour, so bought one for me and one for my sister.
Pointed it and discovered it was 8pp for the entire tub.
Oops... ah well... I can have a bit at a time.
Except tonight, because I had so many points left, I decided tonight was the night for it.
I enjoyed it, but definitely not worth it's regular price - 50p is plenty thanks.
So I've got 4pp left to 'spend' this evening.
Not sure what on.
And about to go see the boy.
Day of reckoning tomorrow... hope it goes ok.
Who knows.
I'm still gonna enjoy my cake tomorrow, meal out on friday, and drinks with my friends on saturday whatever the result.
I've done my 84000 steps for the week (plus extra), my classes, and lots of extra exercising including my hour's frisbee playing on sunday.
We'll just have to wait and see.
Hope everyone's had a good day
