Weekly Update No 4
Welcome to weekly update No 4! This week has been such a mix, cold and rainy for part of the week; but as I write this post its scorchio!! Tom has broken up from college and Chloe broke up from Uni a while ago, so there’s just Ewan to go and I don’t think he can wait.
I am really struggling with my diet at the moment – a number of reasons really, but I just can’t seem to find the focus. So I am back to feeling fat and unfit. I started doing the Lift 4 Beachbody workout, but I’ve had a few problems with my shoulder so have rested it this week. This week I need to buckle down and do a meal plan and try to get my head back in the game. Nothing fits me and I am in a funk!!
Friday night Chloe and I went to Nottingham to one of the Friday Night in Sneinton street food events run by the Creative Quarter. See the blog post she wrote by clicking on the link!
Things I have read/watched that I enjoyed
Watching
As I mentioned last week I have started on Good Girls Season 2 on Netflix. Not sure its as good as the first yet, but still enjoying it never the less.
I have also started Killing Eve Season 2 on BBC Iplayer. Thats got off to a good start too!
Just watched Stormsy’s set at Glastonbury also on BBC Iplayer – loved it.
Watched lots of clips of reactions to the Sonic boom that was heard over Derbyshire the news article is here
Reading
I haven’t done a huge amount of reading this week, as I’ve been so tired; but one thing that I have been reading lots about is sustainability. I thought and about doing a plastic packaging free July 19. A blog post will follow on this subject at some point, as its something I want to do.
I have enjoyed this post on Self Improvement. I am a strong believer that you can do one small thing to make you a better person tomorrow.
Wishlist
This loaf tin is on my wishlist. I just made a lemon drizzle loaf cake. Actually, I doubled the recipe and made one in a metal loaf tin and one in silicon; the silicon one didn’t cook properly at all. In fact, I think the cake will become a “saucy” sponge to be served with custard rather than a cake! Anyway going to order another tin!
This jumpsuit which I think would be great for work or a night out!!
This bag is so cute and fits with my drive to be more sustainable
