Good news - I found the camera, Bad news - I cannot find the usb cable for the life of me so I've had to spend just over £12 to get a new one, gur!!! Would have had to spend more if I lost the camera though.
On a related side note the pictures in this post are not mine, I will replace with my own pictures tomorrow when I get the cable.
First off today is my first book towards my 5000, only 4,999 to go.... (God help me)
1. The positively productive writer by Simon Whaley
Available here at amazon
This was a re-read as I have read it before and I love it, one of the best writing books I've read, if you are a writer buy it straight away, don't ask questions - you will not regret it! I give it a 9/10, Simon's book is not a how to write book it's a how to keep writing on the dark days book, which if you are a writer you will know they like to rear there ugly heads often. Covers lots of good topics like goals, rewards(My fave section), quick wins, booster cards, A positive writers year and so much other goodness. If you are a writer - don't hesitate!
O.k for all the non-writers who read this blog there is also the healthy eating and exercise, yay.
Got to say I haven't exercised in a long time and it showed today. I did complete the full 20 minutes but it was more a walk, jog, stagger, crawl sort of affair.
Never mind I'm nothing if not determined (read stupid) and I will try again tomorrow with the same plan, hopefully it will be a little easier.
My playlist for the walk/jog was:
22 by Taylor Swift
Good time by Carly Rae Jepsen
Bad romance by Lady GaGa
I gotta feeling by Black eyed peas
and Thanks for the memories by fall out boy
I need to buy some more music for my mp3, I have very little music for running and exercise.
Lastly today I got my first Graze box delivered, I have the biggest trouble with snacking as I usually have a packet of crisps or a bar of chocolate and as fun as that is doesn't fit in with my goal to have nutritious eating habits, so I thought I would give this service a try as I get the first box and the 5th box free. Each box comes with four different snacks from a wide range to chose and you can rate each snack saying either to bin it, try it, like it or love it, which is a good feature.
With my first snack box I got:
Inspired by Jaffa cake - which is Belgian dark chocolate, orange raisons and roasted hazelnuts
Super berry detox - which is blueberries, cranberries, goji berries and green raisons (far to healthy for me but we'll give them a try)
Healthy popping corn - which is basically popcorn you heat up in the microwave - I like the sound of this most
and finally El picante - which is paprika baguettes, spicy chilli peanuts and jumbo corn
Just my luck I don't like nuts and I get them in two of the snacks, oh well I'm not allergic so I will try them all and if I don't like them I'll rate them as bin it. I'll post a review on this at the end of the week and at the end of my five week trail for you all.
One of these a day will get me to the end of the week and I'll buy some fruit tomorrow for the second snack.
That is about all today, Making a start on things for the list and as soon as the cable arrives I will add my own pictures to this post, hopefully it will break up the text. I'm going to post tomorrow the goals I have already done, there's not many about 5 I think and I'll post pictures to go along.
Love to hear your comments as always, have a great Thursday,
Claire
