Tired and ate a leek and stilton cheese pastie.

Another day. Another irrevelant cartoon but I have this app called Brushstoke and it gives this filter.

Wore my winter coat and ended up sweating on the tube. Despite the foggy mornings the weather is mild and I look a bit silly all wrapped up.

Got to work tired. On time. Well on the dot. Lots of emails back and forth. Not much to tell. Normal work stuff. Had lunch. A pastie - which is like a pie. Well it was leek and stilton pastie with lots of salad. Ate with my colleagues then went back to work. Didn't have dessert.

My ipad keeps on giving me a storage full warning which means I'll need to start deleting pictures. I guess I could do that. Anyway, I'm feeling tired and lathergic so a colleague suggested I needed somewhere hot and away. I'm thinking Spain. Yeah that would be good, but when? Got Christmas booked off. Yeah, had to rush in there. The whole week off.

Back to my day. Left work and walked to the station. I often walk to the station instead of taking the bus, I feel I'm contributing to the obesity drive. Nah, it doen't work because I end up with sore feet. However at times it can work off my nervous energy.

Got off three stops before home and went to Marks and Spencer. They are re-branding to call the food stores - foodhall. A bit like Harrods. These supermarkets! Got more than I should. I just love the cranberry and pecan nut loaf. Yeah, I ate it. I shouldn't have bought it but I did. Obesity drives goes out of the window.

Took the bus home, looked up some information somebody sent. Now I'm so tired. I need to find out why? I think it's the changing clocks and also instead of going back to bed when I wake early I just keep awake and finds things to do.

Putting yourself first. I've not really done that. I need to start. It's hard. Well. That's all I have for today.

Daily Writing Journal: Mo Money Challenge - week 8 which means £8 in the tin!

£8 in coins So I'm on my second week on saving and still not sure. I'm not feeling the pinch per se, but it's hard thinking how am I going to maintain this. So I managed to get a few coins out and gather some change, but at some point I'll really need to organise this. I've put in four fifty pence pieces with come up to two pounds sterling and the rest in pound coins. Remember the money tin from last week. Well it all went inside that.... How am I feeling? Slightly bored but I still have a long way to go..... Saving money is boring, spending is more interesting.

My London Hood - The Tate Modern

Modern Gallery make you think of the world as it is today. I just wandered around the exhibitions in the Tate modern and seemed focused on oppression of humanity - focusing on the poverty, wars, sexuality, violence, conflict, the underdog and gritty. This was a picture that captured my imagination because it looked so modern. This is a painting by German artist Christian Schad called Agosta, the Pigeon-Chested Man, and Rasha, the Black Dove 1929 is a large portrait-orientated oil painting of two funfair performers. https://www.tate.org.uk/art/artworks/schad-agosta-the-pigeon-chested-man-and-rasha-the-black-dove-l02264 So in typically America-speak when I saw my people, I had to stop and take a picture, therefore homegirl, Rasha, the black dove is headlining my blog. In those days, I guess the only work she could get was as side-freak show but she is very beautiful, modernly so. It also made me think of what happened to all the black people or people of colour during Nazi Germ

Review of January 2018 - lost weight, socialised with others, completed my beta-read, doing my courses.

Hello everyone, Just checking in about my goals and life in general. It's all good. What went well. I took in packed lunches for at least four days a week. This was just hummus, sprouts, grated carrot sandwich. So very vegan. I also cooked dinner a few times a night rather than eating junk food or takeaway. So a lot healthier. I finally have a social life of sorts. In my last job - it was work, home and see family on weekends. I was so drained and tired so this new job has made such a difference, that I can go out and meet people. So I go out with some drinking mates once a week. It's a nice evening out of the house and away from social media or the internet. It's mostly small talk but its nice. I'm doing my photoshop course. That is coming along nicely, that picture is from one of my practice sessions. I'm doing a couple of writing courses which are intense. What hasn't gone well. I need to focus on having more routines, and breaking tasks
