I had some cereal this morning, and now all I can think about is food! Seriously how does that work. It was only two and half hours ago!

We didn’t have dinner last night not in the conventional sense anyhow. Shadow the new puppy we have acquired managed to get himself trodden on by Nas (totally wasn’t Nas’s fault) and to make it worse he got pushed along underneath as poor Nas tried not to hurt him anymore while getting out of the way.  Thank god he was unharmed we did think he had broken his paw but despite being shaken he was soon up and running again -after a couple of sweet biscuits- looking at him now if you hadn’t of seen it you wouldn’t believe it had happened.

Needless to say I needed something sweet after that, what I did have though was a bucket of soup with some tear and share bread. This helped to a point but my nerves were still synapsing most the day. In the end I couldn’t bare it anymore and munched my way through deal or no deal (yep a guilty pleasure of mine. It just so happens to come on at 5pm which is when I am in the house with the boy). I then proceeded to have prawn crackers and large dairy milk for dinner once I picked Steve up. Not quite the spaghetti carbonara ready meal I had planned lol.

Hence why I woke up hungry this morning and thought sod it I will have some porridge with the boy. I also think the advert I saw yesterday about porridge lowering cholesterol might have helped in my decision. Not that I have any idea about my cholesterol levels or have any intention of finding out. Like I said the other day all I’m interested in is my weight and whether I can ride Nas or not. It was pretty tasty but it feels a long time ago now and lunch feels even longer away!

It might not also be helped by the fact I’ve come in from the rain, I got soaked just putting the horses out and I only had a long sleeved top on with my gilet. I wasn’t happy hence why I am in before really doing anything on the yard. The forecast says it should clear up later so I figured I was better off waiting and doing it then.  This however is not helping my need to not be sitting around thinking about food -as I reach for a mint- I’ve already had 4 coffees this morning and I now feel so hungry I don’t think it would make a difference if I had another one anyhow.

So the big question of today will be can I hold out until lunchtime:-s
