Hump Day

Hump Day. It just doesn’t sound right, does it?

I’ve decided to embrace pants. The only reason being that I have no need to shave my legs, as its not like I have anybody to share the bed with and slice their legs open if my hairy buggers touch them.

If you have read this blog before, you probably know that I prefer dresses and skirts, but these Zara pants aren’t too bad. Once you get over the shame of wearing pants that were intended to be worn as cropped pants on normal size people, that is.

I’ve paired them with a Target top and Tony Bianco wedges. For some reason all of those shoes that I bought on super bargain status are feeling quite snug, even though I tried them on and walked around the store without pain. Must break them in and suffer in silence.

Edited to add: You can buy the top HERE on the Target website. Who knew they had online shopping??

Chicken drumsticks, anyone?

I am slowly getting through the Essie polishes and then I will move on to my new China Glaze polishes that arrived on Monday. Luckily I have nothing better to do with my time.

I’ve had to keep my nails relatively short (for me) as they break at boxing. Not pretty.

Essie - Escapades. 

I feel like it is more of a coral/red rather than a traditional red. It also does not have as much coverage as I normally like. I’ll live though.

After boxing on Monday I wandered into Big W, aimlessly killing time before going home and stumbled across this storage/tackle box in the mechanics section, for the whopping, debt inducing price of $9.

That’s right. $9. Bargain! It has successfully fit 67 of my nail polishes into it, and the older crappier ones can stay in their shoe box.

I’m going to need another tub as The Husband has strict instructions on not to return to Australia without a haul.

I had some new business cards made up as people have been asking if I have any when the fact that I have a blog comes up. I am way too embarrassed to offer this information up to anybody as it feels really lame, but if somebody asks if I have a hobby I guess I can say blogging. Does anybody else with a blog feel like it is lame to say it?

People just assume that everyone with a blog is a narcissistic weirdo. The weirdo part may be true of me, but I’m undecided on whether or not I am a narcissist.

I didn’t want to put my last name on the card, as I already have enough people googling “What is Domestic Divinity’s last name” “Where does Domestic Divinity live” “How much does Domestic Divinity earn” “What does Domestic Divinity’s husband earn” etc etc.  If you want to find this stuff out I might as well make you work for it, no need to just hand it over and put it on a business card.

My Lite n Easy arrived at 7:10am on Tuesday morning, a welcome change to when it was delivered at 5am the previous times, and I stumbled down, bleary eyed in my pajamas ready to scare the delivery driver only to discover that he had just left it on the letterboxes. Lucky nobody else was hungry.

Is anyone interested in a day by day run down on the food and what I thought of it? 

If so, here is day 1:

Breakfast: I eat my own porridge in the morning as I hate the LNE breakfasts, unless it is just a muffin with jam.

Morning Tea: Cinnamon & Nut bar – pretty good, I was craving something sweet so this hit the spot. 

Lunch: Beef Nachos with melted cheese and fresh salsa – Delicious!!! Smelt so good when the beef was cooking in the microwave that my tummy was going insane. Not enough corn chips though.

There was a slight ‘tang’ to the salsa but I cant work out what it was. I’m not really that full after eating it unfortunately.

Afternoon Snack: Diced peaches in juice – standard. Still starving though. 

Non-LNE Snacks (woops): Strawberry dipped in chocolate and a slice of cheesecake. What can I say, I was bloody hungry.

Dinner: Macaroni & Cheese – I don’t know what I continue to order this as I don’t even like it that much. Quite heavy and gluggy. The 3 tomatoes on top taste terrible. Too cheesy, but I suppose the title should have warned me. 

Night time snack: Banana & Apple Bread – This was from Day 3’s lunch option but I was still hungry so had to nosh on something.

Last time it took me a few days to get used to the food amounts during the day, but dinner is usually pretty filling. 

I’ll keep you updated. As I am doing LNE purely for convenience, I am not too fussed about eating foods that aren’t included. If I was doing it for weight loss I would definitely be more strict.

For reference, I am on the 1200 calories meal plan.

I'm going to have to get some normal food anyway as my niece is staying with me for the weekend.  Can hardly put her on LNE now, can I. 

In other more exciting news, I have an amazing give away coming up shortly from The Make Up Box Shop!! Stay tuned and get excited.
