I've been in to town and got the board for the cake, but the place I wanted to get the boxes from is closed until Monday :eek: and the ones I have managed to get aren't really very nice...

Any ideas where I can get 80 plain, 3" square cake boxes before Saturday?! I can travel if necessary... I have tomorrow and Friday morning available to track them down...

TAG - I think my get up and go has run off with yours

welcome hermione - toots will be in touch with you soon. Don't worry - plenty of us work (admittedly I'm off this week), some more than full time, and plenty have families to run around after too. As for Monday... it comes round every week, so just start (with level 1 only in your first week) with today and see how you get on!

Not much exercise taken today - another 12000 steps to do today still... I hope my friend still wants to go for a walk when she finishes work, otherwise I'll be trudging through the rain on my own!

I suppose I should go and get some flying done... something active to get my energy levels up again! After all, if I'm going to keep up with hex on the weight loss/fitness front, I can't afford to sit around doing nothing

I've got one word for you: EBAY!

Greenbee, thanks so much for the tips and encouragement, I really do appreciate your help with my battle with my weight!

Big hugs Lady Liberty

Hermione, welcome to the thread. There are quite a few ladies on here that work and have children and do the lists. Just take it slowly and don't try to do everything to start with our. Our official meeter and greeter Toots will be along soon with some wise words of encouragement - the main thing is to take babysteps. Forget about yesterday's list, just try level one for today and for the rest of the week and build up gradually once you are used to doing level one. And please shout if you need any help/have any questions etc

Hello lovelies
Been bored out of my mind at work this afternoon, made worse by thinking what I could be doing at home!! Though I did sell another house today, after the viewing last night and I didn't get to go home early as the viewing lasted 35 mins then they collared me again in my local shop!!
Right today I have:
Done some of my challenges - see earleir post - am chuffed to bits about this
S/S kitchen
cleaned blasted glass table again
bleached dishcloth
flung bleach down loos
ironed 3 things - going to do this every morning as pile isn't overly big, just over the basket and should go if I do at least 3-6 things per day
aired and made bed
showered and dressed for work

DH playing squash tonight so plan on doing some more when I get in xx
