    Well done BB, you are doing so much better than me with the MBing:o

    I am seriously thinking of throwing in the towel as I just seem to be making such little progress.

    Well done on the weight loss too:T

    Evening all :) Another good day at school, followed by ds parents evening which was fine, its the one where he comes along and shows us his work. The only bit with the teachers was for them to tell us his new targets in his link book. His books were still basically illegible and the recurring comments seemed to be about him not completing his work :o:o His dad came along and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be for a change.

    After that ds and I went to a Harvester for tea, I had salad (without a roll and butter :T) and then the spitroast chicken with fries and a diet coke which keeps me within my daily points as I had more point free soup for lunch :D For both of us it came to £10.93 which isnt bad at all I think :)

    All tucked up in bed in my pj's already, feeling quite tired and a bit chilly, so thought I'd get cosy :)

    Not sure if I mentioned it on here but I've been chatting via email with a quite cute guy from pof, anyway he's a skipper on a boat and today has asked if I want to go for a daytrip on his boat when the weather warms up a bit :):) Am quite excited and its good motivation to keep going with the diet as he is a fitness freak (goes for 20+mile runs for fun :eek:)

    Evening all :) A good day at work, ds has moved up another book level at school which I'm really pleased about, was going to mention it last night to the teachers but didn't want to seem pushy, but today they have decided to move him up a band anyway :T

    After school we went round to my grandads as its his 93rd birthday today, had a tiny slither of birthday cake but was good and it really was a little bit ;)

    Just seen in an estate agents window the house I grew up in, first time its been on the market for 15 years (since mum and dad sold it), will be popping in to get details tomorrow just for a nosey peek :o Its a 4 bed detached so not a chance of even considering it, but would be nice to see it again :)

    Ds has gone to mums for a sleepover tonight, decided he wanted to go at about 5.30,so I have a night off tonight :) He has a swimming lesson tomorrow morning at nine, they finally called me back and have moved him up a level, which means for now going on a saturday. He will move to a weekday class once a vacancy comes up, hopefully in a few weeks, but until then it will be 9am on a saturday (much to daddys annoyance :p)
