For breakfast I made myself some scrambled egg, peppers and spinach (with a small added amount of cajun spice). Believe it or not, but I had never made scrambled egg before in my life as I never liked it when I was given it as a child. So this was a new thing for me, I think it turned out ok. It was quite yummy, although the guy cleaning my suite at the time was looking at it a bit strangely (Think he thought, "Peppers for breakfast?")
So before having my shower prior to going shopping, I decided to do a home workout. We had been given a Tabata workout to do, but I wanted to actually follow someone as had never done something like this before. So I done THIS workout, it was tough and sweaty, but I couldn't believe how quickly it was over. I liked the variety of upper and lower body work and I stretched my spine in a way that I haven't done in years. I did need to use an inhaler afterwards though, just so I could breathe a bit more easily, lol!! I'm not asthmatic, but I seem to get a virus in the winter and the inhaler helps me breathe better, definitely after exercising.
I actually didn't manage to have lunch today and there was a hiccup with dinner. In a nutshell, my food shopping was due to be delivered this afternoon, but I received a message to say there had been a system problem and my order was cancelled. I was compensated for the inconvenience, but it meant having to go to the shops rather late in the day and I couldn't even remember what was planned for dinner.
So we ended up having steamed smoked cod fillet, homemade potato wedges with a selection of green vegetables (brussel sprouts, whole green beans and green cabbage medley). I did take a picture, but I have no idea where it has gone on my phone and like the rest of my day, nothing has really gone to plan. Take my word for it though, it was delicious! I'm not sure if it was allowed, but by the time I got home, a McDonalds could easily have been on the menu, so its all gooooooood :-)
I am all tucked up on my cosy couch, cuddling the box of tissues, hoping this cold doesn't linger for long and sipping on my water.
P.S. I had 2 big achievements today. First, I shopped in Cadbury's and Thorntons stores today and wasn't tempted by the goodies around me, and secondly, I shopped on an empty stomach and stuck to the list! Booya!! These are big, personal NSV's!
