Nuther nsd - glad of that
Very stressfull at work today so came home after work and vegged out in front of i-player soaps, eating crisps and biscuits - instead of going for a swim - would have been better swimming and using my gym membership and NOT stuffing my face with carp.
Going to Tai-chi tomorrow so that will use my membership

Had the sore throat from hell the last few days so have been fighting it off with manuka honey and lemon. Had a few very early nights and slept round the clock last night 8pm till 9am this morning:eek:
DH is wondering if he's in for a day or so peace if I lose my voice like it keeps threatening lol.
Didn't stick to meal plan cos needed something soft and tasty last night for tea - but made batch of curry - enough for last night and a few in the freezer too - so not too bad mse wise. I did buy naan and bahji bits for dh (can't stand them myself) - keep threatening to make my own but I've never got round to it yet - are they easy?
All going to more or less to plan at mo though so can't be too bad - but makes for a boring diaryLOL LOL

:rotfl:Who'd work with kids??????????????? - one little darling (3 years old) patted my tummy the other day and asked 'whats that?' I said 'it's my tummy!' his reply 'is it a big one???' I replied 'yes!!!!!!!' had to peel rest of staff up off floor where they'd fallen over laughing. As I went to Tai Chi on Thursday - I booked a session for re-training at gym as I haven't been in succchhh a looooonnnng time decided I needed a new programme and to be reunited with the torture - whoops - meant to say fitness equipment. So tomorrow after work guess where I'm going....... :eek:January spends - £587.580

Went to gym tonight - was booked in with instructor but as I got there was told the person I was booked with finished work at 5.30 - the time I'd booked my appointment and they had left a message on my home phone - not a lot of use when I went straight from work - I was not impressed :mad:
So just did a stint on treadmill, bike and rowing machine - all on easy settings - suppose it was better than nothing.
Nuther NSD - making 10 this month - 4 to go to reach my target.January spends - £587.580 -
Well done on the NSDs ..they are mounting up.
Kids ..they do say the funniest things.
My DGS came out with a cracker the other week...he said "What is that plaster on your arm Grandma?"....I said "it's to stop Grandma having a cigarette as cigarettes are bad for you and can make you really ill"
His reply was "Well grandma I'm going to smoke when I grow up!!!"
I then said...."NO, Don't do that it's a dirty habit and grandma should never have smoked in the 1st place"
He then said "Well I have to start smoking so that I can have a patch to stop smoking!!!"
HOW DO I ANSWER THAT ONE>>LOL?0 -
Not a lot you can say to that one Taxi - how old is he?
Didn't manage a nsd today ended up having to buy some bits from chemist near work - I OBJECT spending money on lady essentials that men just don't have to bother with!!!!!!!! - then because I was out I bought a tub of salad and bag of crisps from deli - so a fiver down the swannee - I did enjoy the salad though and its the first buy over a dinner time in nearly 3 weeks.January spends - £587.580 -

He's 4 Milann ..and a proper cheeky chappy...
Glad you enjoyed the salad and like you say once in 3 weeks ..that's a massive improvement.0 -
Had no internet connection for best part of a week and I've felt like my right arm has been missing lol.
MSE - totally blew it this week. Haven't totalled how much I've spent - been to butty shop nearly every day this week. Had another :eek: birthday so used it as a bit of an excuse to get out and about and 'treat' myself to all manner of junk :rolleyes:
Plus really bad week at work and needed to get out of building for a break cos there seems to be a meeting of some sort virtually every day - if we're in we are expected to attend - lunchbreak or not!! Out of 7 days I'd had a meeting 5 dinnertimes and don't get any other breaks - have always had proper breaks everywhere else I've worked..... ARRRGGGHHHH - it can't be right working full time in charge of kids some with serious disabilities and health issues and no break ...I can feel myself getting wound up about it again :mad::mad:
Got to go for blood tests in morning following trip to see doc after routine smear test. Went last week expecting a packet of hormone tablets or similar - ended up having examination - inside and outScan and bloodtests ordered and talk of wanting 'to avoid' surgery - I couldn't agree with doc more
just wish sometimes they would keep some of their thoughts to themselves until they know for sure what the prob is :rolleyes: I'll be wondering now for next week or so till results are through and bet it is only an age thing :rotfl:
Went to gym for new programme tonight - have put weight and inches on and was totally wiped out after fitness test - LOTS of work to do to get back into shape - once birthday chocshave gone will re establish some healthy(er) eating and exercise habits that have seriously slipped. Heres to doing better all round :beer:
