    Evening all!

    A busy few days, with some good news.

    I've agreed on a compromise with sister that means she gets back to Skeggy and I get to go to the car boot.

    Best of all, I had the second social services assessment, and he's agreed to me having five hours a week - an hour twice a week for showers, and three hours at the beginning of the week for laundry, veg chopping and making sure I'm organised for the week. Hopefully there'll be the odd ten minutes left here and there to do bits of housework too, yay! It's still got to get past the panel who control the money, but fingers crossed.

    Blimey Sammy Jillians workout must be tough if you are aching, did have to laugh and the thought of you trying to bend down in the supermarket ;)

    Bun, soup sounds great :)

  • Sal,
    Stop beating yourself up! A bit of cake is not the end of the world. You have walked today so can afford a few extra calories.

  • What time's the party? I'll be the nominated driver - need to set off for the coast around 5am so need to stay sober. :rotfl:

    Had a lovely afternoon with friend and DD2 on the deck putting the world to rights (JSA exterminated). Prepared all the veg for Sunday roast when I get back tomorrow.

    DD2 returning for Come Dancing in a bit and then an earlyish nite.

    How's your broher Lou?

    True but have come to a real standstill with the weight loss and have walked 12 miles this week, although only run 5. Maybe im destined to be this weight now

    resisted the chocolate...more by error than on purpose but did get some fat free jellys and low fat squirty cream for the party later.

    Ding dong! Now that sounds like a party... ;) :rotfl:
