  • In my HHC I hung out the second load of washing and then went to the shed - had to re-arrange boxes to get at the decors and found other bits I needed - then took 3 lots of stuff from the house to the shed - will do some more tomorrow but that was enough carrying of boxes for me for today.
    Alas no christmas tree so will have to buy one this week!!!!
    Off to defrost soup for lunch and the back to the grind!!!
    toots xx
    Peace will be mine
    could do better - must try harder

    The trouble with colds is that they stick, still have my cough which shows no sign of going!

    Make Christmas pudding mix now and the children are having some of the soup and bread I made yesterday. Have to try and make some fairy wings in a minute with two wire coathangers and some old netting! Wish me luck :rotfl:
    Fluttering about an inch off the ground, I may fly properly one day and soar in the clouds!

  • Hello!
    Managed to go into town yesterday.:T Got some wrapping paper and was looking for a fireman sam for DS as he's become obsessed in the last two weeks. But couldn't find anything suitable for his age. I got lots of wrapping up done when we got home. This morning I've sorted through my wardrobe and have filled two bin bags of stuff to chuck. This afternoon I'm gonna do some baking :D

    Right, I've made a decision (brought on by the fact that having got white bits all over my clothes wrapping my mum's new dressing gown i couldn't find anything else to fit. I seriously need to start dieting. I feel so fat and awful and i've put on over 2.5 stone since my wedding in Jan. A bit is fine but it's making me tired and out of breath all the time and i don't even want to go out today i'm so embarassed. I'm going to try and religiously stick to WW points now until Christmas - which won't be easy with 3 xmas work dinners to go to, but I'm determined. No alchol at home until Xmas eve, small portions. I know I can do it as I have before but my weight is a constant battle. I know I'm eating too much but can't believe it's that much too much, might do some research as to whether my pill could be adding to it too...

  • OK I need a plan.
    Wash and dress
    Get WM going
    Write xmas cards
    Sort xmas presents
    Add card to on-line bank facility (I've got to use the 'reader' they sent and I've been avoiding going near it)
    OK
    Washed dressed, breakfast
    WMx2
    Lunch now cooking
    Meters read and input
    Dealing with on-line banking postponed - apparently my CC has been 'got at' so card co. has canceled it and sending another one out:mad:

    Just as well I have got all my shopping done.

    Hugs to all

    Gryfon - we'll start a club - stroppy 6 year olds!

    Had another chat with DH this morning and cleared some things up. He doesn't really agree with reward charts - thinks it's bribery - but he'll sort of go along with it! He believes children should do as they're told straight away and that's it! - I wish! Anyway things are a bit better between us.

    Spent most of the morning wrapping prezzies but still have quite a bit to do.

    Just had dinner and now going to have a game of Connect 4 with DD.
