    Good Morning everyone :wave:

    Hope I'm not cross posting anyone :eek:

    Well all I say is it's Friday! ... and I love my weekends so with only one day to go I feel a lot happier :D It's a shorter day too, so I can get away and have a lovely long evening reading and surfing the web.

    Breakfast: oats, fruit and HM yoghurt plus a glass of orange juice
    Lunch: HM Celery Soup and today I'm also taking a salad. A banana for dessert
    Dinner: Salmon (oven baked) with something :rolleyes:. OH and DD are making me point everything up so we need to agree on what we want with it. May make ratoutie (spelling?)

    Have a lovely OS day everyone!
    Enjoying an MSE OS life :D

    It's OK I'm back. I get withdrawal symptoms if I don't manage to get onto MSE OS. Muttering about vinegar and wondering if I've got enough in my storecupboard to make a 5 course meal, twice a day for 7 days ;)

    Morning Apple_mint and others to follow

    gosh I thought I was in a time warp - it is the 24th today is it not lol

    Good luck with counting the points Apple - I hope you succeed.

    had my interview thing last night - lasted 40 mins and got £15 cash for my bother.

    yes - thank goodness it is the weekend - it is a lovely day here today - hopefully it will be the same tomorrow.

    Short day at work for me. then collecting kids at 4pm. Might pop to Aldis on the way there and get some mozarella for HM pizza tomorrow as I see it is only 49p this week
    Had not a bad nights sleep - then woke up with one cat on me and another calling loudly bringing me a sock.

    b - cereal
    L - not sure yet
    D - pasta and mince something

    Have a lovely day all

    Morning everyone :wave: and thank Crunchie it's Friday:D

    This has been a long old week - it's not quite over yet as I have to leave my car into the garage to get its funny noise remedied, so I'll be handing over a big fistful of notes before I the weekend gets under way. Never mind...

    It's still a bit early for anything to have happened, so not much to report at all.

    Smokey112/Ang...how sweet getting present so early in the morning! I'm often presented with little bits of plastic from milk cartons when I'm still in bed as Dylan does so love to play. Little kitties, how could we do without them...

    Well, I'll let you all get on with your day. Have a fab Friday everyone.

    D'ya know I didn't even notice the date was wrong, d'oh!


    Mind you what I am doing up at this time, whilst my dd is still tucked up in bed I'm not 100% sure!

    Washing hung on airer, WM on .... tea being supped.

    Today, is going to be completely non-OS and I have no apologies to make for it either :)

    Today I am off to London to meet up with a couple of girl-friends and "do" lunch. We used to do this every 6mths or so, but in fact have't done it since I was preggers (2003). So, in a minute I need to go check my hair (washed/straightened last night) and pluck my eyebrows, decide what to wear and cheer!

    DH & DD will be dropping me off at the station and collecting me this evening ... by lunchtime today I shall be in the land of the big smoke! By tonight, I'll be glad to be home again, LOL.

    The daft thing is I used to live about 20 miles from London and it would take me 1.5hrs to get in to town, now I live 200 miles away, and it will take me 2hrs ... howsatworkthen? Mind you the price of the ticket is extortionate, and because we only decided to do this on Monday, no chance of pre-booking mega saver things.

    Weather here is overcast, it's been pouring with rain and howling with wind all night, but I still feel perky! Also helped by the fact that a) I got to bed pre-midnight and b) DD did not leave her bed all night :j

    Hope you all have a wonderful day, I will !!!!

    Seems I'm not the only one grappling with the blasted points.You and me both Apple mint,I could do with losing 4 stone _pale_ My mum keeps telling me that I don't look 14 stone as if that makes it OK :mad: Truth is my knees are starting to hurt,I feel very out of shape and my cholesterol is a bit high,so whether I look like I need to lose it (trust me, I do)or not,for my health's sake I must.

    It's raining here so not sure whether I'll get my walk/cycle in

    I'm not planning to go to Waitrose today Queenie :rotfl:

    Breakfast - kids-porridge and toast
    me - shredded wheat and banana/raisins

    Lunch - kids-ham sandwiches,choc buns,grapes,cherry toms
    me- leek and broccoli soup,hm whlml bread,grapes

    Supper - fish pie,peas and carrots,yogurt and honey for those who want it/fruit

    Good luck to anyone counting things,be they points,calories or fat grams.I'm going to try hard today and forget yesterday. ;)
  • Morning Queenie and all

    I've fell off the OS bandwagon lately due to being so busy with work :mad: however today is the day I jump back on. :D as I have a day off.
    The house is in a mess and we are moving in approx 2/3 weeks.

    Need to do a menu plan using up store cupboard items
    Clean the kitchen
    Tidy the whole house
    Recycle
    Sort out a charity bag of clothes
    Re paint areas of the walls (would like all of our rental deposit back!)
    And loads more if I have time
