Not too bad a day but the night is still young ....

I have had a great day today, you know when you just wake up and feel fab and want to smile at everyone?  I know it doesn't happen to me very often either ....but today was my day!  I have laughed with my 'Oldies' at work, giggled with the clients I've seen today, had a great time with my staff - even if one of them jinxed me into banging my head on the flexible hose tap in the kitchen - something I have NEVER done before - Grannie Annie :), my day was super hectic and I was an hour an a half late getting home ......but I was still smiling at the end of it all .....albeit a little knackered lol!

Bush Tomato Kanga Bangas
 (approx 200calories)
So food wise......I attended an 80th Birthday Party for one of my clients this morning and ate ............NOTHING!!  I know AMAZING!!  For breaky I had my yummy oats and strawberries, no morning snacks, lunch was salad, a slice of triple smoked lite ham, a slice of lite swiss cheese and a small handful of almonds.  This afternoon I've had 1 serve of light n' crisp crackers and I'm just about to go and have a salad and a couple of bush tomato kanga bangers :)

Oh, the days confession .............come on .........you knew there had to be one in here somewhere ha ha ha ......I had a very thin slice, really more of a slither than a slice of caramel mud cake, ok before you think I caved totally....just before I left work a colleague came over with a small plate filled with cakes and yummy treats, it was from my Birthday Girl - just for me!  How lovely was that?  However, I thought it would be much kinder (to my waistline) if I left it for my Saturday staff to have to be tempted with ...so it's in the fridge ladies, please help yourselves ....not really ....PLEASE!!

So, really not a bad day at all ....not a great day but it was almost a great day and it's all about those tiny steps isn't it ......god I'm so full of crap lol!!!

Tomorrow is election day here in the great land of Oz .....so we're holding a fundraising breakfast - bacon and egg muffins $3 or a snag on bread with onions $2, bargain!  There will also be a ton of home-made jams, marmalades, tomato relish and mustard pickles, a lucky numbers board $100 prize and a fruit raffle!!  So a busy morning it will be - smiling and chatting and taking their money!  I'll try to remember to take some photos of us all set up and I'll let you know how it goes tomorrow ....I just have that awful feeling that I've forgotten something .....I hope that goes away soon or I'll never sleep tonight .............no sleep and an early start = a very crabby MJ!!

So, hopefully I can fill myself up with yummy food and stay away from anything too 'bad' .........hahahaha...I do have some Chobani in the fridge for later and lots of fruit too .....although as I was typing this my lovely #1 son just came in with a bag full of 'stuff' for me ...........................stuff = a 1.125lt bottle of Smirnoff, a giant bag of Red Rock Deli chips, a family block of Cadbury fruit n' nut (my fav!), a bag of sweet chilli lime snack mix and a big bag of pistachios .............so I might split the bag of pistachios up, into smaller hadful bags and mix in some almonds too ....the other 'stuff' is just too dangerous to be around lol, I might have to get him to hide it somewhere hahahahaha .......wish me luck.......'cos boy o boy am I gonna need it!
