Then much food shopping.
Then lunch (I'll talk food in a moment)
Then swimming. Swimming had two extremely splashy men. One was doing some sort of backwards butterfly/backstroke/fuck knows thing. Personally I think he was just seeing how much room take up and how big splashes he could make. Anyway, towards the end of my session kiddies arrive for swimming lessons. One of the teachers was their and we were having a giggle about how like my boy one of the boys was - anything to dodge doing what he was supposed to. I then say "hmm, I'm supposed to do 10 more lengths, but I don't think I have the time to do all 10." She said, "sure you do. Who's dodging now?!" I did my last 10. Unfortunately she was teaching at this point, but I know I'll see her next week to say thanks. Thanks for giving me that little prod to not short-change myself. I'd gotten in saying I was going to do 50 lengths and that was what I did, not 45. It felt good doing the 50 I had set myself. It was only 50 because I was 10 minutes late. I'm aiming to do 56 next week. You never know, I'll be back doing a mile soon enough.
And I was on time to pick up the boy from his after school club, which then ran on late 😂. Home for a snack for the boy and off to the Drs. Fun times, after having gone to an out of the way community hospital to wait an hour or so to see a Dr, who said my son had a blocked eustachian tube, but he wasn't going to prescribe antibiotics, we are now (about 6) weeks later and going to the Dr because he's still deaf in one ear and coughing and our Dr, who I know doesn't like to prescribe antibiotics unless absolutely necessary, listens to his chest and says, "yes, he needs antibiotics." Fucksake. My boy is overjoyed. Medicine is never a trouble to get down him!
So that's my day off! Add in cleaning and laundry too of course. Roll on work tomorrow!
Anyway, on to the food. I made a full English slimming world style for my boy and I. Beans, onions, tomato, mushrooms, bacon, egg, sausages (11 syns for 2) and two cups of tea (1 syn for milk) for breakfast. It was lovely, and certainly set me up for the day.
Lunch was jacket potato and yet more beans and a banana. It was still raining and I couldn't be bothered with salad so went fruity instead.
Dinner was creamy veg pasta. This bad boy was stuffed with superfree: cherry tomatoes, onion, spinach, red pepper, courgette, mushroom, mange tous; and pasta and a healthy extra A of garlic and herb Philly.
I have my healthy extra B to use still, which might be going on hifi light bars. I've used 12 syns so far, I might use more on something sweet. We shall see. I have half a tonne of food in either way!
