Morning all!
Its been a while since I popped in and said hello :wave:, but I have been keeping up with you all.
PP - sorry to hear that you had a bad night, remember to take it extra easy today to make up for it.
Not been very OS at all recently, having real problems with my BM, just can't seem to get a loaf thats edible.
Away with work for the next 2 days but then its nearly holiday time, can't wait. Although I am enjoying my new job, it will be nice to have a bit of me time and the chance to catch up on things and enjoy in the cricket ( yes I know strange choice but it take all sorts!).
I promise that when I get back I will hit the OS wagon again with force.... just become debtfree, so want to up the saving pot, so will be posting more to make sure I am doing it right.... can never seem to meal plan and keep on top of things.
Well off to hit the shower, pack and tidy up before I go. OH will do his best to keep the house tidy whilst I'm away but...................
Love to you all, have fun and remember to smile......0 -
Morning PP, Morning everyone!
PP - sorry to hear you had a poor night again...the frustration of not sleeping must drive you round the twist sometimes.
Hello Amanda - think we X posted. Congrats on becoming debt free, that's excellent. Enjoy your trip.
Has anybody heard from Moggins recently? Hope you're alright Mogs, if you see this.
It's a w*** day! Ahh, don't want to go! Am wrecked - like PP my sleeping pattern has been up the left this week, probably worse than usual. I suspect exam stress is to blame. Unfortunately this is counter productive as I really need to study and memorise, but it's so hard when I'm tired.
Brekkie today - porridge
Lunch - probably a ham sandwich, yoghurt & some fruit
Dinner - who knows. In my dreams I would say lasagne or some other proper dinner type meal. In reality, probably brekkie cereal as it'll be all I'll have the energy to prepare.
Maybe I'll get another 40 winks before my proper "get up" time...am off now to give it a go.
Happy Wednesday everyone!

Morning!!
Cloudy here today but I have flung all the windows open for some fresh air.
Busy day yesterday but I did manage to make some more lovely bread from my new machine,
Need to do something today about my 'ole marmite legs' the St Tropez tan that went wrong.:o Perhaps if I do it again it would work out better:rolleyes:
Anyway must dash as the dogs are fighting in the garden they will wake the neighbours:D0 -
Morning Everyone.
Horrible rainy day here in Sussex. PMS is giving me a few bad nights sleep, any one else get this? Off to the gym this morning to do Body condtioning (killer) then Salsa. Must tidy the house as its just gone on the market.
Not sticking to any diet as such, not counting and not NCing, but trying not to eat too much! Seem to have lost the plot.............help, well at least I am maintaining but I seem to have lost my focus.
Sound like a right whinge today! Hugs to those that need them.

Morning everyone
Well we got back on Monday from our weekend away and I have been exhausted ever since. Had a lovely weekend though. Caravan was spotless and weather was lovely except on Monday when we were coming home - don't think it stopped raining.
No more holidays/time off work now until JulyCan't grumble though. At start of year didn't think we would be getting any holidays together as my work wouldn't give me any time off in July (my hubby's work closes then so he can't choose his holidays) but when I changed shift they were able to agree them :j
At work today but last full day so not too bad. Will get some washing done when I get home and a quick tidy up.
Breakfast: bran flakes with dried fruit and seeds
Lunch: sundried tomato roll with cheese and pickle, yoghurt and fruit
Dinner: cumberland sausage pasta
Must go. Have a great day folks0 -
Morning all :hello:
I thought I would make an effort today and get up early, even though I'm off sick. Sorry to hear that people haven't slept well. I hope the hospital goes well PP.
I know some people were unwell yesterday so I hope they are feeling better.
Today I need to get some work done, phone American Express for the third time to find out why I haven't received my Nectar Points and do some studying. Also need to find out about my house...not good news, but I'm hoping it isn't real at the moment.
Take care all

Good morning everyone,
I slept badly again last night as well, couldnt get to sleep, and then kept waking up and still not able to get back to sleep, so not a good night!!! Feel ok at the moment, but will be flagging later i expect.
Have 2 little ones, but shouldnt be too much trouble as they normally play lovely together.
Have quite a lot to do today, WM is on (will be hung on the airer), DS and DD lunches all made and i just need to get the DW and BM on in a minute. Also have quite a bit of cleaning to do, but i do that around the little ones, but should get it all done later.
Has been raining overnight, and is still very grey out there, and i see they are still threatening standpipes this summer!!!! Wish i knew what they were doing with all this water!!!!
Right, better start the BM, hope everyone has a lovely day,
Take care xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx0
