  • It’s a chilly night.

    The combination of rain and wind has dropped the temperature back to winter levels with the temperature at the moment sitting at 8°C. The weather has been crazy over the last week but unfortunately next week on Tuesday I’ll need to pop into the office but I will get a free breakfast and lunch so…

  • Erratic weather today, climate change making the weather random?

    Today it has swung from one extreme to another, first it was fine and then it was heavy rain then the sun came out then it was heavy wind and rain. Funny enough, as all this was going along, I was watching a video on YouTube regarding el nino and how the usual cycle has…

  • End of the week.

    End of a long week and it couldn’t have come sooner. I clocked off from work and I decided that on my day off I’m going to have a lazy weekend with minimal effort on my part. I jumped onto Woolworths to order groceries for the coming week and then the next week so then…

  • Almost the end of the week.

    It’s almost the end of the week and I am looking to sleep in on Monday and then head down to the local dutch bakery for some egg bene and a cappuccino for brunch. I’ve been sticking to the meal routine, no snacks or eating in between meals, I’m hoping that that if I do…

  • Another day, another dollar.

    I’m happily relaxing after a busy day and the day started off well with confirmation that I’ve got 5 December off for my work Christmas party which avoids me having to finish late on Thursday, wake up early on Friday after barely having a decent night sleep and then by the time the party comes…

  • Raining and crazy weather.

    It has been another horrible day today so I decided to take the night off. I had a good day at work, stuck to my meal plan for today and counting my calories and with that I have really come to enjoy a mug of Earl Grey tea to warm me up when working at…

  • A good first day.

    A good first day to the reboot of my routine – I had my breakfast with the chia seed and unsweetened yoghurt and funny enough I didn’t miss the sweetness. I have a feeling that if I do it for a few weeks it’ll become the ‘new normal’ as it is embedded into my daily…

  • Another weekend ended too quickly.

    Back to work on Wednesday – the weekend always ends up finishing too soon but on the good side I did go grocery shopping and this week I decided to get unsweetened natural yoghurt to go with the chia seed breakfast along with some easy meals for lunch. Oh, and one thing I remembered to…

  • A relaxing day at home.

    I spent today at home relaxing then headed down to the supermarket to pick up a few odd bits and pieces. I arrived back home and watched some YouTube videos but I saw that Google Streamer received an update so while that was downloading and installing I meal prepped my chia seeds breakfast but what…

  • A reboot and a restart for a new week.

    Today I finally replaced my current bed with a new bed and bed side tables along with cleaning the whole house from top to bottom – cleaning every skirting board, hoovering all the floors, wiping down the window ledges etc. I also took my mattress outside in the fresh air and sun that was out…
