    Its amazing what little ones can get away with, all my three have tumbled down the stairs. The eldest even got hit in the head by a bus and just ended up with a big bump???

    Shame OH called in just think of extra cash to spend when you do get to go.

    I've got toothache :mad: I broke a tooth a few weeks ago but it has not been giving me any trouble, so I was hoping to save getting it fixed until my routine appointment in August (it will cost a fortune, I'm sure!) but it is now starting to make itself known a bit more, so I will probably have to go and get it sorted in the next few days.....:mad:

    Managed a NSD :j my first of May, and have eaten a sensible diet...

    Breakfast - cereal
    Lunch - ham and stilton salad & a mini banana
    Snack - a mini banana
    Dinner - lamb skewers and spicy couscous

    I was aiming to go out for a run this evening, to counteract a very stressful day at work, but the toothache has put paid to that I think.....so I will opt for a bath and an early night instead.

    Hope you have all had a good day.

    And whisky. Can really recommend that smiley96.gif. Doesn't stop pain, but stops you caring :rotfl:
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:

    It eased off on its own, so I live to fight another day without a dentist's bill!

    I was very organised and made a salad, but I actually have a sandwich mystery shop to do at lunchtime today - d'oh! So the student can have the salad instead. I will obviously have to spend on the sandwich but because I will claim it back, it won't count in my "no spend lunch" challenge.

    Off to do scratchcards and banking - have a good day everyone!!
