Yum, those beans are lovely, just like usual baked beans, the sauce is a bit different but not much
Surprised they haven't been pushed as low carb.
If home bargains have them tho, they're prob not popular and wont be available for long.

Hello again, its me

I've had my hair cut short, wasnt sure at first but loving it now.
Feels 'free', its like getting your knicks and bra off at the end of a long day

Sorry, still not tried those beans.

Off to Manc in the morning, really looking forward to it

Just had youngest to zap my neck wart again (fourth time) stubborn motherf*kcr.

Got a lovely teenage zit, right in the middle of my chops, damn that coil.

Right, been a longish day, off for a nap.

Well. If I was talking to you....I'd say 'have a good time' and 'have one for me' and 'yay...go and enjoy yourself'.

But since you're off partying and we're not, then I'm just going to do >


:rotfl: Just kidding. Have a good one!

How short btw?

I still have my tag too.

What the heck has the coil got to do with you getting a big zit?


In fact, I'd better say cheerio to you now as I'll likely be gone to the hills by the time you get back.

It has hormones in it, i googled mirena coil and it said it can cause spots, i've had a few since it was fitted but it could be coincidence i spose.

Have a lovely relaxing time
I shall miss you, when are you back?

well thx guys but not really down to us - not sure if anyone had noticed previously but we had been working hard to reduce the mortgage and with hubs stroke and him not earning his normal wage now my parents gifted us the last 12k to get it paid off and done with - we were on course to do it by ourselves at christmas but last christmas hub decided to treat me to my mini convertible and take an extra year to sort the mortgage so we were due to pay off small car loan and mortgage dec 2011
then hub stroke happened .....

my parents just wanted us to have the security of knowining whatever else happened now we would always have our home - we are very lucky and blessed xxxx

Warning: long, boring rant having little to do with dieting (though plenty to do with emotion!)

I'm fed up. Did a long walk today which ended up taking almost four hours, with all the 'can we stop for ANOTHER rest/drink/snack' requests! :eek:
All in all though, it was nice. We were happy and it felt like an achievement. 'Chops' (that's a nickname SD ) had fun too, although he hurt his leg somehow near the end..
Had a small lunch when we got back, washed dirty pup, and pulled a nasty thorn out of his foot, only to find he still didn't want to put weight on it..
Didn't do a lot after that, as cream crackered, though we did pop out to put fuel (and oil ) in car and get dog food.
Boys to bed around 7.30pm but somehow still had plenty of energy.
I then spent the next couple of hours on edge making sure chops didn't 'get' the kittens.. (not sure whether he wants to play with or eat them...) I'd had enough when one of them dropped a smelly little present where it shouldn't have i.e. not in the litter tray, and decided to go to bed, shortly after 10.. (after cleaning it up). OH arrived just as I was literally walking towards the front door to go up. We had a.. 'disagreement' about the cats, which ended with him saying we'd get rid of them (assume he meant give them back to where he got them from..) and me coming back down here to 'stew' :mad: (Was mainly annoyed that he hadn't bothered to tell me he'd be that late.. as well as feeling like I've been given two more 'dependants' to look after, without any warning or planning!)
Now I'm not in sleeping mood, too tired to sit at computer really, and nothing on TV..

On the upside, I just noticed that puppy chops seems to have made a miraculous recovery.. maybe it was just sore from the thorn, though I'd virtually decided he'd pulled a tendon or something.. (didn't seem to be in pain.. was just like his leg had stopped working..)

Sorry, just needed to have a moan... I'll join Alias on the 'off topic' bench...

<toddles off>

Hope you managed to get to sleep after all that, lol. It's almost a given, that all around you will play up at the same time btw, it's what makes us strong. Hope you have a better day today.

How old is pup? 4 hours is a loooonnnngg walk for a puppy, forgive me if I'm telling you something you already know, but it's supposed to be 5 minutes per month for the first 12 months, so if he's 10 months for instance, then that should be 50 minutes, tops. After he's past a year, then he's fine to go pretty much any distance/time.

Well I 'slept' (' ' because I didn't sleep) half the night on the couch so I'm going to be as bad tempered today as I can. I went to bed and every time I felt like I was drifting off, I could sense my breathing was changing and I was about to start snoring so I jolted myself awake again just so I wouldn't disturb OH. Of course that then meant I was on edge and couldn't relax so I got up and headed for the couch...which is short and I'm not. I lay there with no door on the room and the dog farting and dreaming all night (when he dreams, he yelps/growls/whinneys and runs..so he's not a quiet sleeping partner). I went up to bed when OH got up for work at 3.30am. Then I had to get up at 6.30am to get sorted for the plasterboard delivery. Imagine the grumpy dwarf out of SnowWhite.....that's me, complete with moody scowl.

Busy day again today for me but I think I'm going to find it hard being productive tbh. I may end up being productive on the couch. See you all later.

Yeah, it never rains but it [STRIKE]purrs[/STRIKE][STRIKE] lol[/STRIKE] pours eh?
Yes I did sleep thanks. Mostly like you, on the sofa, though ours is long and I'm not

He's a nine month bouncy, playful terrier with bags of energy. We did have quite a few stops and he sat with us for some of them, had a drink or just sprawled out on the grass. He's been darting around and 'shaking' at the kitties for the last hour or so (he kind of shakes all over with.. anticipation or.. uhmm.. something lol) The walk should have taken half the time it did, but yeah I take your point: though I did have an ulterior motive: I wanted to tire him out so that he would be less likely to try and attack the kittens.. dunno if it works like that but that was my thinking.. :think:

Good grief, that sounds like a trick to master! :shocked:

Feeling better. Guess I was just tired. Just had to chase the dog out as he was trying to get at the kitten which DS1 was holding. It was making an 'angry noise' and DS1 needed help. I better get some tidying done.. house looks like a bomb's hit it, then get us out for a bit. Short walk this morning, then maybe a playground or something.. let the kitties have a bit of peace and quiet to explore.

My eating was a bit messed up yesterday. Not awful, but just 'scrappy', so I'll try and be a bit more organised today. A nice salad for lunch methinks..

Have a great day peeps. I'll try not to waffle on again next time
