Weird weird weird bed on 6.3 and got up to FBG of 7.7 then pre breakfast 7.3. Unheard of.
B. Omelette with my favourite stuff , eggs , parsley , 2 rashers crispy bacon, mushrooms and Vittoria tomatoes.
L. NOTHING
D. Mussels with a white wine, parsley and cream sauce.
Chicken breast with wild mushrooms and a sherry , thyme and mushroom sauce. Asperagus, brussel sprouts and broccoli.
Sugar free jelly and raspberries and a dash of double cream.
Still alcohol free. Not intentional but just happy with water.
Will have the boys for just over 1 hr tomorrow. Will go to the park if it is nice. Otherwise 2 weeks of no early rises and no rushing about. I love them dearly but I love a rest too.
