Saturday snippets 20th July

{enjoying} the sunshine after the rain. And lots of butterflies in the garden.

{reading} the Valdemar books. I’m up to Magic’s Price, although I’m reading around the series whenever I get my hands on a set.

{eating} sensibly. I just started a 28 day program of yoga and dieting to try and halt the thyroid weight gain and rebuild my strength and fitness. I hate the concept of dieting, but I also hate not being able to fit into my clothes. And while I’m in pain I can’t easily exercise to control weight. Plan is based on 10 minutes in the morning by Barbara Currie. (amazon affiliate link here)

{pondering} how to explain all of the above to the 9 year old. I mean, I’ve told her the above, but what she actually sees is mummy passing up on bread and potatoes and puddings. And I try really hard to not load the kids with issues around food and bodies but it’s all really hard.
