Weekly round up

Wednesday
  The funeral is booked - for the day of my big interview! I spoke to the vice principle in charge of that area and explained things and he said it shouldn't be a problem to be first in so I'm out in time for the funeral. If they can't change it I'll have to withdraw my application which really sucks.My father in law has asked me to design the order of service for the funeral, no pressure there then, trying to please my lovely but opinionated and perfectionist mother in law, bless her.

Thursday
   Nothing exciting happened at work other than it is always to warm in our office, like sauna warm. Before weigh in I made the Nicki Special Sheppards pie this time it had onion, carrot broccali, califlower and celery and I blended it to baby food and then added the mince (there was more puree then mince) and I had to add a fair bit of gravy granules to get rid of the taste. I didn't really like it but I served it with beans and I couldn't really taste it. Put it in the oven and it was ready when we got back from group.
Weigh in was short and sweet, we were planning on staying but we had been moved to a different room with 3 walls of windows, it was a greenhouse and there was no way I was sitting in that for 60 minutes. I'm happy to report a 3lb off this week and not so happy to report that Mr Shrink lost 4.5lbs.

Friday
  Was at work before 7am, as I've not been sleeping I decided to go in early which means I was done by 2.30, I spent the rest of the afternoon shopping for clothes for the funeral. I hate shopping at the best of times but trying to find something black and suitable for a funeral in the middle of summer when you can only shop in about 3 places not fun, thankfully Evans to the rescue - found a nice dress, some leggings and some new shoes all of which can be worn for work. Thankfully for my bank balance Mr Shrink paid as I'm sure you no Evans isn't cheap. I then hit the debenhams online sale and found a little black bag and some jewellery.
  Spent the evening with my best friend and her husband, they are such fun but we don't see each other very often as life gets in the way. She introduced me to the best cocktails ever - Parrot Bag frozen cocktails they have Daquaris, Pina coladas and a minty one, you freeze them and once they're slushy - jug down so nice but no idea how many syns are in them, lots I imagine. I was naughty though after dinner I had cheese cake and then on the way home I had a Macdonalds.

Saturday
  Driving lesson first thing was a disaster - baring in mind in my first 2 4 hours of driving I've stall twice well this one I much have done it about 20 times and Kev was getting a tad frustrated with me. I don't no why I keep doing it, hopefully it was just a funny foot day.  The rest of the day was uneventful, planned our meals, did the shopping online, tried to keep to a normal temperature.
Dinner was wedges, beans and fried eggs followed by cookies and sweets. I don't no why I keep doing it, I just feel like I need it which is stupid because I no I don't although this weekend has been the first binge in over 2 weeks and considering they used to be daily i'm not doing too bad in the grand scheme of things.

Sunday
   Put the washing on, blitzed the front room (and boy was it messy) hovered downstairs and the stairs. Sorted upstairs, did more washing, hovered upstairs, shopping arrived (all slimming world friendly except a bar of 85% chocolate which is grim but thought might be best to have if i get desperate because I can't eat more then about 3 squares. For tea I made chicken korma and Pilau rice, rice was nice but the vanilla in the coconut muller light made the actual korma weird, not sure I'd have it again to be honest. Tomorrow I'm going to make spag bog for the first time ever, going to be interesting as the only time I have tomato is in lasagne when Its from a jar and smothered in cheese sauce.

I'm now going for a very cold shower to try and cool down.
