    I hope nobody has slipped over on the ice/snow yet! Ite pretty much all off the roads here apart fom car parks where its just turned to slush! Lucky it wasnt so cold today and the sun came out and started melting the thick ice.

    Yeah my OH it pretty naughty buying me all that! But i know he was probably trying to make christmas happier for me after whats happened.

    I found on hotdeals 4 codes for nokia music so ive got £16 of free downloads! :D:D im not impressed with the Ovi store (nokias version of i-tunes) the games are rubbish! lol

    A work mate also works at Homebase and told everyone they had started reducing all christmas stuff there so after work i went down there and bought 5 boxes of tree decorations altogther 200 decorations for just £2.76!!! Everything was down from like £15.99 to 49p and 29p!! Mega bargins! I want a white xmas tree for when we move out but all they had were 4ft white trees left so i didnt bother. Plus theres no where for me to store it all really!:rotfl:

    Hope your feeling a little more awake now Kavics!

    My OH also bangs on about his I-phone, his glued to it most of the time playing different apps.:rolleyes:

    TMI alert!!!
    Im still spotting from the op..today been having some small really dark brown clots again. Its been just over 2 weeks since op im really hoping it stops soon. :(

    Oh, sorry for the clots, I really hope it will stop soon. Especially that Xmas is just round the corner ;).
    There is no homebase around where I live, probably for the better, we don't really need anything anyway. Will make a list what we need to buy on the sales and try to stick to it-hoping that OH will too.
    I'm much more awake today, went to bed at 9.30 last night, but fall asleep around 11. It was nice though, just reading and relaxing. I'm off tomorrow, boss changed her mind, so will have a busy day baking cakes and cooking, I enjoy it though. Have a nice day everyone!

    :jCHRISTMAS EVE!:j

    Yay! I had work today, there was only a few people in, one of the girls called in sick so we had her work to do too so didnt get to leave early, but we gave ourselves an extra long lunch break! ;) we bought in some party food for lunch and christmas music to get in the christmas mood.
    I didnt get to see my OH as he set off for birmingham just after lunch, but he will be back sunday so not too long to wait to see him.
    I feel so fat, before i fell pregnant i had a nice flat tummy, now ive got muffin tops over my trousers and a little pod tummy. I will get on the wii fit tonight see how much weight i have put on as havent been on it for about 4 months! After christmas the exercise will begin to get my nice tummy and hips back!
    Ive been looking at the online sales since i got home Boots gifts are half price already! i bought £27 of bits for birthday presents next year! ;) and i treated myself to some perfume from the great sale on The Perfum shop only £7.56 after sale price and a 10% off code with free delievery!:D
    Have a lovely Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone who reads and posts on my diary! Here's to a great 2010!

    Hi guys

    I had an OK day yesterday until i went to bed then i had a little cry and couldnt seem to stop. :confused: Every tv programme i was watching was about trying to have a baby, losing a baby or being pregnant. I also had a friend who was really depressed as he was missing his dad who passed away a year ago texting most of the evening with really awful texts about how his life is s**t etc etc. By night time i was feeling drepressed too!

    So this morning i have awful puffy itchy eyes, and to make things worse today me and parents are going to my nephews. TBH i dont really want to go but know they will want to see me, show me there new presents and play so ive got to go at least for a couple of hours.

    I cant wait to get today over with and then look forward to starting a new year. I still not sure what my plans are for 2010 but i cant wait to start planning things to look forward too.

    Right, im off to check out all the online sales :D

    Sorry to hearyour day wasn't great. Not helped much by the friend who was texting all day. I know he was probably very upset but there is no need to bring you down with him, especially after what you have been through.

    I am sure 2010 will be a great year for you and you can put all the bad things behind you .

    Hi Hon,hope you feel much better! I know what you mean about everything connected to pregnancy, you will be alright,don't worry! Have you had any success on sales? Try to find some ways to put your mind in ease ;).

    We did Next online (lingerie),than in store for OH (suit,jumper,etc), and H&M and Esprit, we spent about a £150 but will be for a while I guess. I found really good bargains in H&M, bought 10 items for £31, I'm quite happy with that.

    We had our chat as well with OH, so yesterday was quite emotional-decided to use again contraception as next year is a very important year for both of us and it's not the right time to get pregnant. I was really gutted yest, I know it's for the best but can't help feeling broody. Anyway, we are off to America in September for 2-3 weeks, so have lots of challenges in front of us, somehow need to make the money for that above our salary:eek:. Impossible? Let's hope not. Will tell you later the details.

    Anyway,take it easy, go to the shops, we're off to watch New Moon tonight. Oh,yeah,about muffin tops-I know what you're talking about! Although you have a really good excuse and respect your body after pregnancy,it takes time to get back to shape. Not like in my case: I really need to make the effort from tmrw, I'm size 10 but somehow still have a bit of a muffin top-I just can't get rid of it. But I MUST, I MUST! And it's only because of the amount of chocolates I eat:cool:. Have a good day!

    Thanks girls,

    Late last night i told my friend who was texting me i was feeling upset, he then sent me a tone of texts saying how sorry he is its his fault im upset and that he always does it.:rolleyes: He doesnt always do it at all, his been through alot worse than i have the past and although ive only known him since April his a close mate of mine. So i just told him no it wasnt him it was the programmes on tv doing it.

    I queued in the online next sale for 9 minutes and found nothing i liked at all in the sale! Then i looked through John Lewis and Debenhams online sales and nothing. Which is good i suppose, more money in my bank account anyway! Glad you found some bargins Kavics.

    Its good you and your OH had a good chat about 2010 Kavics, like you said if you have a busy year ahead of you and your going away to the USA it wouldnt be easy being pregnant/having a newborn with you.

    I was suppose to go to my brothers today to give nephews there pressies and have tea, but i only stayed for 2 hours and came home for tea as i wasnt feeling upto watching being with the kids too long.
