Well, Blogger's been off line for a while so I haven't been blogging.
Several things have happened since then, of course.
I spent all last week having packed lunches instead of eating out as an experiment to see how I would feel about that and how it would impact on my eating.
Actually it was fine. I had lots of salad stuff in the house and made myself a salad for lunch each day (lettuce, grated carrot, radishes, chopped up quorn scotch eggs, grated cheddar, crumbled blue cheese and mayonnaise)and took fruit and yogurt for snacking during the day. Some days I cycled home and did some exercises, other days I did some shopping round the town. One day it was a good job I'd popped home as the stoopid cat got himself shut in the sitting room. By the time I got home, he'd scrapped up the carpet from under the door, so I couldn't open the door to get him out. It took me several minutes to flatten the carpet enough to slide the door over it so the cat could get out. He was fine, but the carpet is rather wrecked. OH had to tack it down to the floorboards ...
Daughter Number Two is about to start her GCSE exams but seems pretty calm about it. I'm sitting my AS level Classical Civilisation exam tomorrow (1st of 2) and am not yet feeling nervous about it, but I know I haven't done as much work for it as I could have done, but life has kept throwing other things at me that have taken up my time and energy. It's a reason, not an excuse - but I will see how I do tomorrow. I'd like to feel confident answering the questions and not make a fool of myself.
