Think so Bookie, thanks for asking..had major barney on phone with DH as he failed to get back here in time for a party we were going to.He said he knew nothing about it even though the invite had been sitting there since May, I had spoken about it several times etc etc..so I had to go alone and explain to everyone that no, he wasn't working,but no he wasn't here either...

I've just had to turn down a cheap holiday in Canada :rolleyes:

My sister and my niece have had Canadian citizenship granted and are waiting for passports. She's found a school for my niece and she's found somewhere to live. She had a job at a dental practice whilst over there last week and so just needs to get that or a job.

My family were planning to go in October, but with my sister moving mid September, there is a spare ticket. Unfortunately I'm committed to teaching and nobody in my department is allowed time off in September due to it being start of term. Oh well......

I am surprised it seems to have suddenly all come together - she must have done lots of sorting out whilst there over the last 2 weeks.

Grimsby or Toronto...........not much choice really :rotfl:

Ames, you should only weigh yourself once a week, at the same time of day, as your weight can fluctuate during the day.

Ames

Oh BB, that's really carp.

Scaredy, I was told to only weigh myself once a month, but since the clothes were so baggy I decided to sneak a look. I usually do it at the same time each day, as soon as I get up, today it was lunch time though. I'll wait a few weeks and then see again, at least I'll know whether it's gone up or down even if I don't trust the numbers.

I'd love to visit Canada BB - but if she's going to be living over there then plenty of time for holidays in years to come.

Ames - Ditch the scales - if your clothes are falling down - you've lost weight. :j

Bookie - midnight swims sound blissfull....have you fully relaxed?

DH has just taken DD's to see HP, I'm really not that fussed about it so opted for the 3 hours peace and quite of being home alone. It's lovely to have DD's back but with DH being off for 5 weeks now, tempers got a little bit frayed this morning.....needless to say we're both feeling the relief of having a good shout at each other.....sometimes it's just what you need to clear the air.

I'm off for a wickedly hot, deep, bubbly bath with a glass of wine (yes at this time of day) and a good book....followed by egg and chips for tea.

Burlesque_Babe

that's true Pooky. I don't think I could afford it at the moment anyway - well, I know I couldn't afford it!!!

OOh, egg + chips, haven't had that for AGES!!!!

Where in Toronto is she moving BB? and what school is your neice going to?

(My Mom taught in inner-city TO for many years and I went to public and high school in Toronto)

I'm making HM lasagne, HM wedges and garlic bread for tea.

Back home from camping-didn't stop at Sammy's as kids were bears this morning-better after 1 hour sleep in the car on the way home. We've booked to go to Norfolk in a couple of weeks!
