A busy day at work with 3 meetings it's no wonder our to do lists don't get any smaller 🙄

Mild & dull and for some reason feeling a bit lethargic today but nothing planned expect a telephone consultation with the hospital, can't see what good that is but hey ho, ticks a box I guessThis is in place of the real in person consultation due a year ago, but covid closed the departmentLunch, could be a couple of the heated up YS sausage rollsDinner, the last YS pasty, maybe on its own with current lack of appetiteEight out of ten owners who expressed a preference said their cats preferred other peoples gardens0

Good morning everyone,
DS2 was away early doors to do a site visit and call in at his office. He'll back mid-evening so I'm in charge of Hector who is currently destroying a log in the kitchen. Messy but it's keeping him entertained and I know what he's up to!
LOs for lunch and ham with pineapple, baked spuds and various veg for dinner.0 -
Why have you lost your appetite Farway?
I had wholewheat noodles with cucumber, tomatoes and the last of the kalamata olives for lunch.
I then had a smoothie with bananas and soya milk. I made almost the same smoothie yesterday, but with frozen bananas and the juice of an orange and it tasted much better. I have sliced up and frozen the rest of my bananas in my fruit bowl.0 -
Away overnight so picked up a sandwich on my way back today. It’s been a long couple of days so was glad I’d planned easy tuna and broccoli pesto pasta for tonight. There’s LOs for tomorrow’s lunch 🙃0

Works been busy this week which has the advantage of it's Friday tomorrow and I've no idea how that happened 🤔
Quick trip into Waitrose tonight as I had to pick up something in John Lewis, I had a small list which I left on the fridge and as I wandered aimlessly around the shop I did get led astrayI did manage to avoid the YS meat and fish as my freezer need eating down not adding to 🙂 and TBH there wasn't enough taken off to buy for my sister or nephew. I was led astray by their fruit, blush oranges and nectarines etc 😋 At least my 2 weekly vouchers were something I needed which gave me £1.50 off milk and toilet rolls
lunch was a repeat of yesterday's falafels with salad in a wrap. Crispy tofu for dinner with stirfry vegetables in a teriyaki sauce and tenderstem broccoli and rice. Unusually for me I brought a sachet of sauce and it was too salty so I'll go back to not buying themLife shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage - Anais Nin0 -
I am going to make the same smoothie today as my husband bought me oranges yesterday. I have leftover bean soup from the other day too.
I ordered from Ocado Wednesday, but I have been sent a £10 voucher if I have a delivery before the 5th which is Sunday. Quite annoying!2025 GOALS

Wednesday2000 said:Why have you lost your appetite Farway?Not 100% sure, but I think it's left over lurgy, my nose has been running like a drain as well, plus lethargic, so it's picking at things I fancy instead of making "proper food" I start with good intentions but get the "s0d its" once I get into kitchenHowever, new day etc. Sun's out after a slightly damp startFood today, LO lurgy permittingLunch, try a healthy, frozen, nuked baked spud with coleslaw fillingDinner, Sirloin steak, HM AF chips, sautéed mushrooms, fried eggs & some beans and a fresh tomato to show willing

Good morning everyone,
Hope your appetite has returned Farway. Your food plan sounds very tempting.
A huge rat ran through the garden earlier, ! hope it was just passing through!!
Tesco due soon, no subs or unavailable items. Will have a bit of a tidy when the shopping has been put away and later I aim to cull my shoe collection. I have no idea why I have so many lots of which I can't wear anymore.
I've ordered a tin of tomato soup as I've a notion for some. Literally years since I've had it, I hope it meets expectations.
Usual Friday freezer rake for dinner.0 -
Phew, back to work with a bump! No quiet catch up day for me 🙄
It was at home at least, not that I got chance to do anything other than work. LO pasta for lunch was eaten cold at about 2.30 during a meeting…
Easy treat tea of scampi, chips and peas. There was wine taken 😉0
