Healthy Living

Mark was enquiring recently how my healthy lifestyle plan was progressing so I thought I'd update you all on this as I may have been a little bit evasive in my answer.


Woke up this morning at a quarter to eight And said to myself 'I hate to lie late' Then changed the alarm to a quarter to nine Told myself another hour'd do me right fine At breakfast I said 'It's porridge for me, It's healthy and filling and practically free' But then I considered that this might be nice Croissants and coffee and wee sweetie mice After breakfast I thought I'd go for a stroll For the sugar and croissants were taking their toll And what better thing than walking the dogs Except spending all morning reading your blogs At lunch I feasted on lettuce and eggs And then thought I really must stretch my legs So I planned to head out for a bit of a run Then it started to rain and I ate an iced bun At dinner I dined on a healthy baked spud And virtuously refused the offer of pud And stuck to my plan to fast after nine Except for a bottle of really nice wine

He got a bottle of Glenlivet (from Dee Mac) today. He says it won't last until his birthday - on Saturday! The stress of house selling is unbelievable. Not to mention having to live with me.
