Evening
I was too dead yesterday to write anything. I had no brain cells left
we got up at 7am and put the stew on and Jack washed my hair for me - my at the moment always looks crap and greasy as its due a cut and dye!
we set off for the train station, and went to catch our train
i was stupidly anxious and was a bit stressy. But it was just anxiety. I havent really travelled for 3 years
We caught the train and got seats thank god cus my legs are not able to support me for an hour standing
I shut my eyes for the 1 hour 15mins journey and Jack read
we arrived and I said I was mega thirsty and wanted bubble tea, not had bubble tea in 3 years and its also not really breaking my diet. It was soooooooo good and refreshing
then we started looking at shops, we found the shops we wanted to go. The main one being Tokyo Toys. Jack said we werent leaving without something XD there was cute figures and plush but nothing really called out to me. I felt like I would be buying for the sake of buying you know? until I found one little bunny plush by itself!! I loved it. I said to Jack I wanted this one!! so thats all we got!
we were looking for a cafe to go to for lunch. We would be meeting Jacks sister for lunch, Sophie. I was trying to find a place to eat that did food I could eat. I was getting grouchy at this point as it HURT to walk and id had enough, i needed drugs and a bloody sit down
we found some where called Soho cafe. Jack bought me an earl tea but I was so thirsty I practically downed it. Didnt really savour ACTUAL tea. God I miss tea -______-
sophie turned up on time and we ordered lunch. i told Jack that no matter what I eat I will be breaking my diet as no where does paleo food. Unless you count a fruit pot. And i wanted something that will fill me for more than 20mins. So I chose a wrap and luckily it didnt have any sauce it was just chicken and veg so Id only broken my diet with 1 cup of tea and the wrap bread bit. So i didnt push my luck.
we left there after over and hours sit. My bum was going numb
sophie joined us for a bit. and we walked round a few shops
she left us as she wanted to go home and sleep
I said to Jack once she left that I am very much struggling to walk now, could we catch an earlier train home?
so we headed back to the station and there was a shop I really wanted to see Miniso it was full of super cute tat, all stuff you dont need but I could have bought A LOT
and the price!! how were they making any money!? it was dirt cheap but so cute and decent quality too. I got a pumpkin cushion, hair bands and clips. I wanted to study stuff more but we wanted that earlier train so we made a dash for it. We were lucky cus it was just 1 carriage and less stops but meant less seats! thank bloody god we got seats. I couldnt stand i was too tired and in too much pain
my home felt so far away. I just wanted to be home with my creature comforts. I drove us home as I could see the traffic was mounting, it was 4:50pm and I didnt have time for Jack's hesitant driving. I wanted us HOME. So I drove as I get the job done.
we got in and didnt stop from there as just because you go out for the day doesnt mean the house will run its self right! mum has been over and delivered my almond milk for me to try and stirred my stew too, checked on Oz.
so we were doing mash for stew and sorting Oz and 1000 other things that needed sorting -___- I was shattered and hurting
I had a hot bath and Jack kindly massaged my legs for me which I think helped a lot.
I tried my experiment which was warming almond milk on the stove, pouring earl grey tea leaves and coconut sugar into it. Stirring it til it bubbled then straining into a mug. I have massively been missing warm milky drinks aka hot chocolate. And this wasnt too bad. My next experiment will be warm almond milk with melted dark chocolate drops. But I found something drinkable at least. not amazing but drinkable. Almond milk is an acquired taste
we fell asleep quite quick we were both wiped out. But we'd had a lovely day out together. We havent had a day out for AGGGEGSSSSSSSS
This morning, I woke up at 8:30am, closed my eyes and next thing I know its 9:30am....
what the hell!? jack got up at 8am. So he sorted oz out thank god
I spent an hour doing yoga then cus I had sweated and felt grim I did go have a shower
then I had to cook Jack some meat for his lunch
after lunch we had to trim the fur round Oz's bum
I did the shopping list and sorted other stuff out
I had reflex at 2pm it was soooooo relaxing. But because I had been so poorly lately I was expecting it to be bad and painful but wasnt painful at all and charlotte said nothing much cropped up, the best I had been!
I came home and made an almond milk tea
fussed Oz then I drove Jack for chip shop then bought us home, quickly microwaved my leftovers and had dinner. I do not know how Jack ate all that but he was very happy for that little treat. I want him to have a good holiday, I just feel bad I wont join in with take away. Well I cant right now on my diet anyway.
I didnt bother having a bath as I had a shower this morning and I dont want another one. Cant be arsed. Oz is going to bed in a minute
not sure what I will do between now and bed time. I could sleep I know that much.....
tomorrow
doing the dusting of the house T^T
after lunch mummy is coming over and she says she wil dye my hair hopefully as god my hair looks a mess right now. Kinda gone brassy
I cant see me having any other outer city days out this year but going derbyshire and birmingham this holiday has been nice as we've literally not gone anywhere for 3 years! But now everywhere will start to get christmasy and busy. So I cant be doing that.
we said next year we would do birmingham convention. Its on next month but my cousin went to it in the summer and said it was crap. Covid had killed off all the stores so me and jack said we would give it a year to build back up hopefully. I would like to go manchester too maybe. jack keeps saying he would like to show me newcastle - where he went to uni
