Damn Body Clock
As a mum to an almost 4 year old and 16 month old, sleep ins aren't a common thing in this house! Last night we babysat a friends boys and as a result my kids didn't go to bed until later than usual, so I stayed up til midnight knowing I could sleep in but there I was wide awake at 6.30am! An hour later and i'm sitting in bed on the laptop and everyone else (including the dogs) are still fast asleep - what's up with that?
I'm declaring today a "COMPUTER FREE" day, well when I finish this anyway! I've just read up on all the blogs, posted on Facebook, touched base with forums, checked emails etc and there's no need to go back on again! I have so much I want to do around this house that never seems to get done, so if I achieve it today my reward with be a nice hot bubble bath later on with my new scented candle burning, with a bottle of water by my side and a magazine - BLISS!
I had fish and chips for dinner last night and it reminded me why I love this program - I don't feel guilty, I ended the day being only 1 point over my limit and with exercise points it's made up anyway! So many people don't eat foods like that for whatever reason, I personally know my limitations and if I sat there while everyone else ate it and I didn't that's when i'd be in trouble! Of course my fish was grilled and my chips weighed to 7 points worth, it was a great feeling and a delicious dinner!
So on today's agenda is cleaning out the fridges, tidying up the lounge room (it still has all the odds and ends in it from our big declutter) get to the gym, do some housework, take the dogs for a walk, get on the treadmill, visit my nana in hospital, have some play time with the kids and finish the day with a bubble bath and TV before getting an early night! I could use a public holiday on a Tuesday more often - to all the Aussies out there - HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY!
Oh and being a public holiday my WW meeting isn't on tonight so i'm going to a meeting on Thursday night instead this week, making this a 9 day week and next week a 5 day week.

Yeah, trying to have a sleep in around here virtually never works either! We still wake up at the normal time... pffffft. Hope you are enjoying your holiday.
Wow - even on a public holiday - you fit alot in.
My body clock wakes at 5am each morning regardless of what day it is.
Hope you have a great "me time" tonight
