Not feeling well today!

Late last night I started feeling a bit rough and this morning wasn’t any better so I went to the doctors and I have a mild tummy bug but nothing terribly debilitating. So no work for me, I just did some shopping and prep for tomorrow and just before I made Nutella Panna Cotta… it’s currently setting in the fridge in two beautiful glasses that I also acquired today. I put the glasses on a slant so it will set diagonally and I will fill the rest of the glass with vanilla bean panna cotta and it will look really cool. I will take a photo later!

No more group active :(

Well term one of vocal lessons starts today which means no more group active! Unfortunately we negotiated lesson times last year but I’ll talk to her and see if we can move it to another day. I really love group active because I get the best cardio and weight lifting sesh ever!

There’s one on Saturday mornings as well but Saturday will be my regular PT day. Too many things!

Oh yes and yesterday I asked my boyfriend if he thinks 14/02/2014 would be a cool wedding date because it’s Valentine’s Day and a Friday and he thinks so! I think we’re keeping that as something to work towards because by that time we can also start having babies! Yay!

Valentine’s Day Breakfast

Chocolate-chip pancakes with heart-shaped banana slices (cut with a mini cookie-cutter) and maple syrup… That sounds perfect.

This is my first Valentine’s Day with Beau and the first time I’ve ever been able to cook for a boyfriend. I’m super excited!

I had some REALLY weird dreams last night…

I was a contestant on MasterChef and it was the first day of filming and they were doing lots of running around trying to prepare for the show etc I was standing behind my bench but I was naked. For some reason I was cool with that because a contestant from Big Brother (from years and years ago) said to come naked because Channel 10 will provide clothes.

Then the studio morphed into a cruise ship and I was wearing a black bikini. The cool part was I looked down and my arms were slim and toned and so was my tummy… It’s the first time I’ve ever been able to properly imagine myself at my goal… It was cool. Then the cruise ship started to flood and I saw a big grey lounge floating and my boyfriend was sitting in it so I climbed over the back of it and then the dream got very sexually explicit so we won’t go into that. Hehe.

Awesome afternoon

We were walking past a jewelers and ended up talking to the sales lady for AGES. We’ve talked about rings before, but I’ve never actually gone into a shop to try them on.  Eee it was so exciting! I tried on a 1c diamond ring but it’s just too big and looks wrong on my finger. I prefer smaller ones, and I also prefer solitaire diamonds. I’m not a very bling kinda girl!

Anyway, it just reaffirms to me what I’m doing this for and what exciting things my future holds.

Holy shit I am so proud of my little sister right now.

Since she was on school holidays, she pestered the producer of a local film to be involved somehow so she has been a production assistant for the last few weeks. Anyway, she now has her own entry on IMDB. So proud.

Tuesday 24 January

Things have definitely picked up at work so this morning was very busy! It’s calmed down a bit now. I started the day with an awesome breakfast of two eggs, bacon, sliced tomato and tomato sauce on toast. I tell ya, it’s the little things like not buttering your toast or not frying your eggs in oil or butter that make such a huge difference! My Mum rang me in tears earlier, that’s one of the most horrible things I have to say. Poor thing is going through a break-up with a lovely man but sometimes things don’t quite work out for various reasons. This afternoon I’m hitting the gym to do my PT’s program: front and side raises with dumbbells, tricep extensions and bicep curls, bent over rows, dumbbell squats, Russian twists and cardio. Bloody hell it’s going to be awesome and hurty! After that I’ll come home to cook my boy some burgers with moroccan spiced lamb steaks, tomato, lettuce, cheese and mint yoghurt sauce. I’m quite looking forward to the public holiday on Thursday!
