How To Ruin A Perfectly Good Steak

My diet has recipes and one of them I followed tonight was to marinade a sirloin steak in lemon juice and garlic then cook with a natural yoghurt, onion and mushroom sauce, sounds good but I say now people don’t do it because this nice piece of steak tasted like I was chewing on a raw lemon I mean do they even taste these recipes before they publish them?

My Zen Desk

Darren Rowse from Pro Blogger has been showing off his new home office today so to join the band wagon on this, show your desk day, here is mine, very Zen Habits.


The Sneaky Mid Week Weigh-In


I had to weigh myself even though official weigh-in is on a Monday morning, I have lost 9 pounds so far, yay for me, I have been having thoughts of the dreaded junk food of late so I just need to just think about how guilty I would be if I pigged out but damn pizza tastes sooooo good !!!!


The Wonders Of A Good Nights Sleep

So I got to work in a much chilled out mood today, I had a chat with my boss about stuff and things came into perspective, I got a pay rise, there is at least a 5 year plan at work and so a little security for the future of my family, it is amazing how a few more hours snoozing can change a man’s thoughts.

The Sleep Takers


I spent the whole day at work in a mood with my headphones today listening to music, I think that I said four sentences all day for two reasons, one that I am still hacked off with my boss because of yesterday and two and more importantly I spent the night on the couch with twin 1 on the floor next to me because she wouldn’t sleep so 5 hours of sleep for me and the major hump all day.

Sometimes Work Sucks

It should have been a good day today, I got my letter saying I have got a pay rise, there is a 5 year plan for the company so my job is relatively safe but when someone at works makes you feel like a dick professionally then none of the other stuff matters, I’m sure I will feel differently tomorrow.

House Update

Our house has been up for sale for 6 weeks and we have not had one viewer so my wife wrote a snotty email to the estate agent today as it wasn’t even advertised in the local paper, see what you get when you cross my wife on a mission to move to her larger home….

My Sister, Me & My Brother


Taken about 32 years ago but what did you notice first, me the cute baby in middle or the hypnotising wall paper in the background.

Better News

My brother in law came out of hospital yesterday, he is having continuous treatment for his blood clots, but he is better than he was and my sister is relieved that he is home.

My Arty Photograph

The girls were playing with the shadows on the wall and I took a fairly good picture, well by my standards anyway.


The Price Of A Healthy Diet

I went to the supermarket to pick up everything for next week’s diet which included fresh fruit, vegetables, meat and other cupboard stuff, total price for 1 week £132, eat processed crap get fat, get thin get skint :)
