Not too sure where the rest of the day went to, only managed to get Spots diary done, oh and bought the xmas cards (3.50 for about 60), I ditched all the odd leftover ones I had in my box last year and started new again this year

I've had my bath but still need to sort out my hair :rolleyes: Other than that it will be a fairly lazy evening

Lazy evening sounds perfect to me......enjoy :cool:

Evening all Today was a nice straight forward, if a little wet, kind of day Ds seems to have had another good day too and has come home with some spellings to learn. He has to be able to read, write and spell them. They are all words like it, at, up, on etc, and he can read and spell them all no problem, but the writing is rather illegible still Still, he had a go at it, we sat at the table and practised them all so I am happy

hypno06

don't worry about the writing - my DS is 13 and has appalling handwriting, as does my OH who has to write in upper case in order for anyone to be able to read it!

I blame the fact that HIS father is a GP......

Evening all

I've had a good couple of days, I had ds parents evening last night and that went fairly well, ds is generally improving but theres still quite a way to go, but its better than the last one we went to I was pleased with the progress so far anyway

Tonight I had weigh-in and I've lost another 2lbs, which I'm pleased with :j and postie brought me a cheque for 30.00 from O2, when I got my mobile last year there was a cashback deal but I have to claim it at various times during the contract, and this was the third one, one more to go in a few months

hypno06

You are doing sooo much better than I am on the weightloss.....I only lost half a lb, which I am so disappointed with considering I put on a lb last week and I have been running like a woman possessed! (well, sort of!). so my total weight loss for a month is only 3.5 lbs still..........

Surely this running has got to show some results soon PLEASE!!!

Well done you - you will be at goal before you know it. :T

benbenandme

The exercise will pay off soon Hypno, and I've got more to lose than you anyway! I do need to start doing some exercise though or the weight won't shift soon and then I'll get fed up :rolleyes: According to my scales at home (always 2lbs lighter than theirs ), I am now 11 stone exactly. One stone to go to be satisfied with my weight, and then I want to work on getting another 1/2 stone off and I'll be really happy

hypno06

You haven't got more than me to lose, we are about the same. I was 11 stone 1.5lbs today. My goal weight is 9stone 8, although if I get to 9stone 13 I will be happy enough!

I have been down to 9stone 4 in recent times, so I know I CAN do it, I just need it to be working NOW!!!!!!!!!
