The ultimate incentive proposed! Buying a house, a wedding, and staying debt free.

Morning Tete!

Nice to hear that someone's got some energy this morning (even if it is caffeine-related) I feel a bit sluggish and uninspired by the grey clouds!

Btw, look how well you're doing on the diet challenge - bravo! :T I've lost the same lb and put it back on the last couple of weeks, lol...

Glad you enjoyed your birthday, Flower! You're a better person than me - I'd have wanted to ban OH's 'friend' if it was my birthday!

Ah, bless you Birdie for having to make your own dinner Just think, you can spread out all your craft stuff everywhere while he's at work!!

N.I.M

Morning all, still shattered as after the MS reports it was nearly midnight. Sorry for the mother rants yesterday, I was REALLY overtired. But she will not be invited to anything until I have a full apology and she has gotten on bended knee to apologise to Dinah...I'm kinda gonna miss my mum

How be the rest of us?

Tete_en_l'Air

Well at least you're smiling today NIM! Albeit amidst the MS reports!

Yep, 2lb loss this week Poddle even tho I ate like a pig all weekend - 2 barbecues AND a curry! And OH's favourite pizza place have brought out a 50% voucher again so that's for tea tonight!

Ooh yeah Birdie, think of the mess you can make!

I am feeling quite good this morning. Did the cheapest food shop for ages last night as we are only up here till Friday and already have a fair bit in.

Glad you are feeling better NIM

Yep, keep smiling NIM! I really hope she comes round soon, not just to make your lives easier, but also because I think she'll regret it if she doesn't.

Hi Wendz, just been having a peek at your diary - you're a determined lady with all that onepoll and dooyoo! I've been rubbish

Well done Tete, but also how sickening I bet you're looking all tall and willowy too - jealous!!

I don't feel particularly willowy, but I think my knuckles are looking bonier!:D:o

Wendz I keep meaning to have a good read of your diary, you do seem to be a dooyoo machine! You put us to shame!

Wondering where our Cinny is, not heard from her in a few days, hope all is well...

I don't even dare get on the scales I think I have put it all back on too. Ate so much rubbish in Ireland.

I'm probably still overtired as I'm in a dire mood today. Really angry at everything. NIMs mum and my rubbish job are the main targets though.

wendz86

I do try with Dooyoo etc but not doing so well this week. Am 11,000 away from a cheque so need to get on it, hopefully will write a review tonight. Is hard work though go through phases of doing it and not.

I was wondering where Cinny is as well, hope she is ok!

Sorry to hear you are not in a good mood Dinah, must all be getting to you. Hope you feel better soon.

Oh believe me i didnt want her there! She was there when we arrived, hadnt been invited - obviously invited herself. Apprently some of our other friends had already told her to leave but she wouldnt.
I didnt want to ruin my night by having an arguement though. She wasnt too bad i guess, everyone else gave me cards and presents and then she gave me sarcastic 'happy birthday' but i just smiled said thanks and walked away. She left quite early - obviously got the message that she wasnt welcome.

Good for you NIM, she owes you both a huge apology for the way she has treated you both. I really thought the engagement would make her realise how serious you both are and how much you love each other.
I hope her behaviour starts to improve soon :rolleyes:

I kind of think you have a right to be! Still, try not to think about it and just focus on something else - has your new cake recipe book come yet? I'd be tempted to pick a recipe out of that and make it tonight to keep your mind off of things. It's just a ruddy shame Nim's mum has ruined your happy Wedding vibe!

Wendz and Tete - I'm not dead! Just been manic at work and I always get completely thrown by bank holidays. I'm pretty sure it's secretly Tuesday.

Sounds like you got some fab stuff Flower! Had to giggle at your OH going through a cashback site for your iPod though - bless!

You're all doing really well on the weight loss too, I've kind of given in/too scared to weigh myself Been at my Grandparents a lot and they keep on feeding me up on sandwiches, kitkats and 'bad' coke. I've been working hard in their garden though so the exercise might balance it out a bit?!

Good news though - over last week I earnt £60 cleaning cars and gardening for my Grandad. I think they've way overpaid me (way way overpaid to say I didn't even want paying!) so I keep on buying them things to try and even it all out. Today they're getting Caramel Wafers and Bolands Mikados-esq-things (which I was 100% certain you could only get in Ireland now?)
