    Was feeling rather pleased wiv myself until OH came bk frm his mums & said he wont be here when I get bk nxt week( am going to my mums on Sat for a few days as she is away & my bro needs watching- hes 16yrs but is prone to parties)

    I hate it because he threatens alot- so had enough and took all his clothes out of wardrobe for him to go now- I mean why should I go away worrying whether hes gona be here when I get bk? And hes refusing to go now.. Just sitting in the bedroom. Im so miserable now, he swings in moods so quickly.
    No one should have to put up with that kind of crap.......you did the right thing IMO....hopefully it will worry him:cool:

    Went back to SW last week and today was first weigh in - lost 4lbs :j - 10 lbs more to lose now before Xmas. I had the leader tear up my previous record card so that I'd have a clean slate, although it cancelled out my earlier weightloss, so that it felt like a new beginning - am still 22 lbs lighter than when I first started to lose weight last year tho' :D

    Well done. I just had my weigh in today and I have lost 4lbs too. Doesn't it feel good?

    princess, love and hugs. You take care and do what feels right for you.
    pigpen I haven't read right back yet but I am sure wallpapering isn't part of 'not working'.
    toots Thanks and you rest up today. I understand days when all your energy seems to have disappeared.
    I managed a day out yesterday and have been to be weighed and to visit friend in hospital. DH has finished all of this weeks list::) He is really starting to be more like himself again. His GP has said to keep using the light box.
    The work for next week doesn't seem to be going to happen but just getting out seems to have helped.

    I discovered yesterday that DS3 was eligible for a maintenance grant for his course so we have spent most of today gathering all the info the student finance people need. :j:j
    business mortgage £0))''(+ Barclay's business kitchen loan £0=Total paid off was £96105 PPI claimed and received £13527

  • Sorry ladies had to rush off to dentist (hopefully last appointment) and did not report back on my HHC. In kitchen I:

    wiped kitchen table
    defluffed TD and cleaned filter
    wiped cupboard doors top & bottom
    decluttered floor
    hoovered and bleached floor (on hands & knees)

    and found camera & fiddled with batteries.

    A very productive half hour! :T

    (((hugs))) to Princess Lou hang on in there :(

    Hope you are not feeling too grotty Piggers

    Oh I give up..blugh!!! For some reason I can't get motivated to do the housework. I have been faffing around on and off the computer all day..:mad:

    I suppose the good thing is that I have got the bolognese cooking on the hob, ready for dinner tonight about 7ish. I have also done the doodoo run in the garden, and got the bird feeder that DH wanted from Aldi. Apart from that absolutely nothing else has been done!!!

    well at last I am home at reasonable time (have had 2 late nights with parent's evenings) and I am exhausted, thank goodness it's half term after tomorrow! :)

    On the flying front, um...I must do some?!?
    Go hopefully into each new day, enjoy something from every day no matter how small, you never know when it will be your last
