Saw on another forum. What are you thinking

That I’m glad we went out on an early morning walk. Cold out though. Nice and warm indoors and DH just making us a coffee. Feel quite virtuous.

That I'm getting bored now. I might allow myself to go to a supermarket after the children go back to school...which I think is tomorrow.
The new year stretches ahead and I'd like to do something different this year... not sure what.

Why did we but so many mince pies? I am trying to eat healthily but those mince pies have got to be eaten. One a day will be ok - I hope

I’m thinking that the young man who charged me for my eye test when I’m nearer 70 than 60 should have gone to Specsavers.

I'm thinking I could learn a tune before the big grandson goes home, if I tried.
I'm not going to, though.

Thinking I forgot to give the dog a wash and haircut after the muddy walks he's been on.

Assisted by Mr A I just made bread pudding. I now know why Gordon Ramsay is a highly paid chef and I'm not. His sous chef doesn't wander round pointing out where you made a mess, his sous chef will clean it up.

There may be one or two other reasons as well, of course.

I'm thinking about how much I dislike January.

That I forgot to tint my blond eyebrows, prior to meeting my new, young consultant tomorrow.
I don't want to be mistaken for an old biddy!!!

I must crack on with all the jobs I have to do. Maybe tomorrow...

I'm having a 'plantain' cutlet for tea and currently experiencing a mixture of nervousness and curiosity. No, I'm not venturing into any new trendy eating regime. The price was right!

Plantain cutlet ?

Plantain cutlet ?

Hope you enjoy it.I'm having a plant pioneers burger made of peas protein, onions and parsley. Last time it was lovely with onions ketchup couldn't tell the difference

Well, duly scoffed but unimpressed. Found it decidedly boring. Wouldn't have guessed there was no meat in tbere. When I read the list of contents I was thoroughly unimpressed. Ever so long and many items (?) I've never heard of. I wouldn't buy again even at the crazy price of 10p. It was originally £2:50.

I bet it was better than the bulgogi syle banana blossom with crispy tofu served up by DH and Mindful Chef tonight. To be fair, I chose the recipe, thinking it sounded a bit different. It certainly was that.

I'm now thinking I've just got time for a comforting soak in the bath before the weekly family zoom quiz. I can't believe it's taken me most of the day to take all the Christmas decs down and put them away. I'm sure it used to be an hour of a job.

I’m thinking that I wished I hadn’t made the remark to a friend that the only person I remembered who lived in a certain road in our village a few years ago was a crazy woman with awful dogs, because of course he said ‘yes that’s her, she’s my date tonight…….’ Then of course the elephant in the room was that she was literally half his age and his wife was only buried recently. God what an evening. Spent most of the evening trying to talk about something that she would be old enough to know about or be interested in.

I'm wondering why I haven't heard from my son this morning. He usually texts me to check I am ok.

Should ring my sister for a nice long chat.

Am thinking how lucky l am to be surrounded by a loving family.

I'm thinking I need a lie down after completing a cognitive function test against the clock for Biobank. Interestingly enough, one of the questions before the test was "Have you felt anxious or nervous this week?". I didn't then, but I definitely do now.

I am thinking that I must change my clothes because we are going out for a Birthday Meal for our daughter's fiance and we need to leave soon

I'm thinking it's nice to see the sun after the grim day yesterday but feel mixed feelings about my oldest son leaving home for a flat share today.But think it nice to see him so happy.

Sunday lunch smells delicious, this chilled rose is gorgeous and my sit-down with the tv after the meal will be very welcome.

That people will engage in behaviours they themselves call bullying if they can convince themselves it is justified
