    HHC 1pm anyone?
  • Back from fat club - only lost 1/2 lb this week but still going the right way - need to have a big push now til easter cause want to lose another 5lbs before DH's bday

    Re: CSI MOJT, I thought it was a fitting way to end things, though I'm sad he won't be there every week (still, there's always re-runs) BTW you can watch on the net on Demand Five, even if you can't get the channel on the TV - his last episode is free til next Tues - there you go _Jo_, hope that didn't spoil things for you, enjoy your ironing :D

    :hello: AbbieB - we're all crackers here but we're a friendly lot

    Have just scarfed brekkie - have done my exercise - 4 mile round trip to fat club, some of which I jogged

    Quick 5 min sit down then HHC at 1.30 anyone?
    I'd rather be watching CSI!

  • Well in my HHC I managed to pack a couple of parcels to send off this afternoon, put another load of washing on, brought a dried load in, folded into 2 piles(ironing and non-ironing), sorted out some party clothes for DS1 party, he is going to after school. Replied to a wedding invite and wrote to bank to cancel DD.

    Now will hopefully do my HHI that i`ve been meaning to do, but keep putting off.

    I've almost caught up now, with the help of dp. I also went through ds's room, and hoovered it. Spare room is looking better although it still looks a bit like a junk yard. (There's things that need to be sorted through which will hopefully get done over the weekend. :)

    Tomorrow I'm out for most of the day.

    The first lot of throws are dry and I've brought them in. When the cats wake up I'll be able to put them back on.......(one chair done).

    Blankets out on the line. I'll check again after Neighbours, hopefully the cushion covers will be dry then and I get can them back on.
