I feel a bit like a stuck record, but I find weekends hard when it comes to abstinence and food! I do it, but it’s like batting away an annoying fly that’s in the house – it kind of stays around still and coming back to be swatted away again.

Up early to take Child2 to gym so had breakfast a bit earlier than usual. I was absolutely starving by the time we got back at 12.45pm. The Saint had made a nice and light lunch and I tried to fill up on vegetables, but it didn’t entirely cut it… Then had a nap and slept through the worst of the cravings 😉 Had a little bit of brioche when I woke up and then had dinner this evening. All in all fine.

Last night, the Saint wasn’t happy with me though – he’d felt I’d shown him up in front of Child2. I was convinced i hadn’t and that if anything it was him in a strange mood last night, and i didn’t sleep very well on it, annoyed that i seem to have to take on the higher moral ground and annoyed that he can still act as he wants! I knew i had to apologise with no “but” and I’m not very good at that. I genuinely thought about what a HP would want me to do and i knew it was an unreserved apology. I sent him a text message from the gym even though it stuck in my throat a bit. He read it immediately but didn’t reply immediately. Eventually, 30 minutes later he replied with “I’m sorry too”. Thank you, HP 🙂
