:rotfl::rotfl: That sums up EXACTLY how I feel... I have just updated my spending diary and am putting some stuff away but really need to sort out the washing and stuff and I should have put up the wardrobe I brought earlier as I won't feel like it tomorrow... but......

OK, come on Greenbee - ready, steady.... want a cuppa? :rotfl:

I was good... gym bag packed, lunch made, breakfast made, dried apricots and rice cakes out to take to work too (it turns out that the reason I eat cr*p in the evenings is because I don't eat enough during the day... I feed myself about 800 calories in three meals, then wonder why I need to eat chocolate :rolleyes:). New yoga mat also put out to take tomorrow.

I don't have a kitten or a baby to sniff (and am not likely to get one either ) and there's not anyone here for me to hug :sad:

Me neither... so I'm going to soak in the nice clean bath with a book and feel sorry for myself, then get into my nice clean warm bed, in my nice clean bedroom all on my own ...

ooh have you been barred :rotfl:

:rotfl::rotfl:I know I would have if you had anything to do with it... (only kidding...) I'm on there now

Ohhh, forgot that cuppa - here you go...:coffee: and anyone else who wants one :coffee::coffee::coffee::coffee::coffee: I've been too busy paying people... I think I've gone a bit payment crazy.... What have you done to me Valli & Greenbee? :rotfl:

You did better than me... I've been here since.... naughty flower...

And if you you and froddy want - I can lend you a smelly dog to sniff and he will give you plenty of cuddles and licks, he likes being stroked and petted - he's mad and big though... but will dance with you if you should fancy one as he can put his front feet on your shoulders....

Valli

well I have a hulking great teenager to cuddle - I have been boasting that he eats 6 weetabix for breakfast (well Morrison's own TBH)
(he lets me though....when no-one's looking)

with your posts Flower I know it's tongue in cheek....same as (I think) you know mine are sometimes...
I do forget though that the subtle nuances of body language and expression are lost on here - Triker got huffed at on the Boots thread despite many smilies. I didn't take her seriously cos I know what a rebel she is...

Erm... thanks... but I think I'll give it a miss :rolleyes: ... much as I love dogs & cats, I don't miss the hair, smell and dirt

Now go and make your packed lunch - I have beansprouts, sunflower seeds, tomatoes, radishes, cucumber, baby corn, chicory, salad leaves, grated cheese and pasta for lunch :A. Breakfast is muesli, yogurt and strawberries :A, and I've also taken a packed of dried apricots, some rice cakes and some herbal tea to leave in the office. Hopefully once I stop topping up on chocolate I'll actually lose some weight

Sounds Yummy, although I'm not into seeds, but I know they're good for you - think it's coz I'm allergic to nuts (ooh errr mrs... ) and I try to stay away from anything that could be manufactured in those sorts of areas - I do like dried apricots though, might put them on my shopping lists for snacks, plus I am going to get some tinned fruit in juice and make myself up some fruit boxes for snacking on when I'm out - I looked at the cost of buying pinapple, etc already prepared in Tesco the other day!!!!!:eek: when a tin is a fraction of that price....
Anyway, pasta is on now and I will put some ham and stuff with it - I'll see what I've got in the fridge... mmmmm

rach

sunnygirl - well done on the run - fantastic!

greenbee - well thought out on the food front. I'm out for lunch tomorrow but my fave packed lunch is a box of veg sticks (carrot, celery, sugarsnap peas, pepper, cherry toms) and some soft cheese / hm hummus and ryvitas. :A which reminds me I need to sort DH some lunch for tomorrow. the avocado mr t sent is underripe - can i still use it or will it be nasty?

seeds I buy this mix (though it's only about a fiver in holland and barrett) and mix with yoghurt & fruit for breakfasts

gorgeous roast tonight - DH said best he'd ever had :j I told him to phone his mum and tell her that :rotfl::rotfl:;) loads of chicken left for the rest of the week.

Well done :T

Buy seasonal fruit (OK, so I've got strawberries, but I went to the market and they go well with lemon tart!). I'm mostly eating rhubarb, apples and pears at the moment. But if you want pineapple, buy a whole one and prepare it yourself. All you need is a large, sharp knife and a big chopping board.

Right... must go and get in the bath or I won't get up in the morning ...

Don't use the avocado - leave it to ripen. Bung some chicken in a salad for him instead.

Seeds - I buy in bulk and mix at home, like I do with flakes etc for porridge & muesli... my friends think I'm strange

rach

i might try that, can you tell me where to buy them?

It's meant to be chicken, mango and avocado salad....he's gonna buy lunch tomorrow and he can have the salad later in the week
