Moving on Up?

Apologies for lack of blog and being generally rubbish at keeping this up - but I've had a few things on my mind this week, like selling our house.  Today we accepted an offer and now the mild panic of "now we have to find somewhere to buy" is setting in.  Got our eye on something but don't want to get too excited about it in case we can't afford it or it ends up being sold before we've made up our minds - nothing is ever easy is it?

Exercise has been a bit lame as a result, 2 nights of Shiva Rea yoga but that's it, not sure what I'll do tonight but it has to be something with a bit more impact - maybe gym or a run around the park, not sure yet I'll let you know tomorrow.

Food has been ok but not exactly clean.  Last night we had the stuffed pasta shells which you might remember from Day 11 of the RI30 journey.  They were delish but in no way good for me.  Today has been much better, forgot my yoghurt so for breakfast I had an oat and pumpkin seen ryvita slice with a heaped teaspoon of Whole Earth smooth peanut butter (no salt no sugar) spread on top with 3 Brazil nuts.  Lunch was a falafel salad which had Fresh and Naked mixed leaves, cucumber and pepper sticks, a drizzle of olive oil and 4 falafel - yum!

Tea tonight will be some kind of beef stew, depends what I've got in the fridge but its likely to contain celery, carrot and new potatoes.  Not exactly inspiring is it?  Getting stuck in a bit of a rut for dinners that don't take an age to prepare and lunches that I can have cold seeing as there is no microwave at work.  All suggestions welcomed!!
