    ah, the puppy obsession with underwear.....:rotfl: I always remember one Sunday morning when I was with my ex, Charlie would have been only a few months old. We had opened the back door to let him out and he'd been in and out, we were still in bed. I got up and looked into the back garden........he'd had his head in the washing basket and pulled out socks and pants and had scattered them across the garden. He was literally running up the garden with one of my bras in his mouth as I looked out of the window :rotfl:

    I don't seem to be achieving much today. I feel very tired. I've changed the bedding, done some washing and hung it out. Just put away some dried dishes and wiped the work tops over. That's it. Need to kick myself up the arris.

    I wish I had non-achieving days like yours! Today I have 'achieved' getting out of bed and onto the sofa :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I should be working on AQA. As usual :rolleyes: but am really pooped. I've put off going to Asda for the stuff to cook for this open day until tomorrow.

    I'll have some lunch in a minute and then do the washing up.

    awwww SRM, lifes to short to bear a grudge so tell him you're not happy, not to put you in that position again or you'll kick his bum.... but from what you say he is essentially a nice bloke so i'm sure you can forgive him.....



    2 emails today from runnerman....

    me n erin went to tescos... then to the funkiest wee adults and kids gym at the local leisure centre. i also did some power plate work, which i love...

    would love to go for a run but so far today have coughed tons and lost my voice momentarily 3 times!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    Afternoon all!

    I'm not happy. I went into town and looked at the sales, thinking 'I need new clothes because mine are all too big now, but there's no point getting any because they'll be too big too in a few months'. Then got home with new scales to find I've somehow put nearly all of the weight back on. Even though my clothes are too big now and I'm looking a lot slimmer. So I'm !!!!ed off about that. Looks like I need to look again at my diet, although I'm not sure what else I can do to make it healthier. Maybe swap soft fruit for celery or something (yuk).

    And my sister has changed her mind about coming round here next week to help with the housework, it was supposed to be a big push with me, her and ex to get it in a state where I can get the new furniture in, and then keep up to the housework on my own. Ex was already complaining about having to clear up 'my' mess (what the hell does he think he gets carer's allowance for?!) and now she's not coming. So I'll have to keep chipping away at it and hope I don't get any more colds or anything to let it slide backwards.

    Sorry to moan.
