Friday 18th July *Daily Chat*

Morning Lovely Peeps:wave:

:j Its Friday:j

On my own at work today as everyone else is either out on a course or gone to see Kylie :rolleyes: Nice quiet skive of a day for me then:D

I am looking forward to the weekend as OH has promised me a new phone for my >>>>>> BIRTHDAY TOMORROW <<<<<< and we are going out for a nice meal somewhere.

Weighed myself this morning and I am down from 9st 7lbs to 9st 5lbs so I am pleased about that:T

(((Hugs))) for those who are struggling and :j for the workers who celebrate Fridays as I do:D

Have a good day Y'all.

    Oh that's such a lovely first post for the thread Louise. Many happy returns for tomorrow in case I don't have time to post.

    Well done on your weight loss - 2lbs is a decent amount (wish I could). I usually love Fridays too, but not feeling brilliant today....will start my own thread rather than depress those who post on the daily chat.

    Even though it's looking a bit overcast today, I hope everyone has a good day.

    :hello:Hello and Good morning everyone:hello:

    It feels like ages since I was last able to say hi to y'all; it's just been so manic at work; thankfully the students had their clinical exams yesterday - today my office looks like some kind of bomb went off in it but the exams are over (until resits in September / October) my next work stress is pulling together a timetable ready for next academic year... which starts on 4th August:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

    We went to Butlins for my birthday- was nice just to get away. Spent way too much (it rained and i had to buy a new coat and some shoes otherwise I'd have been soaking wet all weekend - that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.;)

    Might not get on again today but if I don't I hope everyone has a really good day.

    Don't you just love those times where you "have" to buy something new ;)

    Suzy - I'm serious. I was determined that it would be nice weather all weekend so packed only strappy tops, shorts, skirts, sandals and a sundress. It was either buy a coat to stay warm and dry or stay in bed to stay warm and dry (and that wouldn't have built me a sandcastle or got me paddling in the sea:o).
