    I think they would all run a mile if I turned up like that!! I don't have the legs for that sort of thing :o

    TFI Friday :T

    Banking shows that the money I am borrowing from my mum is in, so I can ring the Halifax this morning and start the next stage of the mortgage business. Nothing else, moneywise, to report.

    10p only on the scratch.....still a long way from payout, but heading steadily in the right direction.

    I have a mystery shop to do at lunchtime which will provide me with something to eat and £5 for my efforts, plus it is a good 15-20 min walk from the office, so built in exercise again.

    Then this evening is getting stuff ready for the children to go away tomorrow - they are basically packed, and I never check their stuff because they have been doing this long enough to know what they are doing, but I do need to load the car, fill up with petrol, buy snacks for their journey etc......

    So, another exciting day awaits......I hope you all have a good one x

    Good morning Hypno,

    Hope you got a good sleep after your busy day and evening.

    You mentioning hot buttered toast, is still having consequences, I'm now wanting pate and toast for lunch. But fortunately no bread in so can't actually have it.

    Managed to get back on the 'straight & narrow' for the diet yesterday, so hopefully Wednesday's mega blip won't have too bad a consequence.

    Done scratchies, but messed up one, balance went too low, and it won't let me deposit, I think it's because I'm outside the UK again, so another thing to sort out in our break back home. Got to make a proper list today.

    Hope your mystery shop goes well.

    Have a good day everyone :)

    Glad the diet is back on track se......it will all be worth it!

    Sleeping is still hit and miss for me, but I am just getting on with it, and hoping that things improve over time, which I am sure they will. I will probably start my yoga once the children have gone to Norway.....which I am sure will help a lot.

    Just had a thought on work lunches, will the toaster take the sandwich toaster bags. That way you could freeze a batch of sandwiches, and just grab one in the morning, and toast it at lunch time. Would save time in the mornings.

    Hope the yoga goes well, and DS & DD being away should let you get into a routine before they get back. My problems are the weekend ahead, and the 9 nights away at the end of next week, when my daily routine will be all over the place, but at the moment determined to stick to it.

    Morning, you will be ready for a sit down next week after being so busy. Preferably a lay down in that nice newly painted bathroom with the Jo Mallone candle and a nice glass of something!

    Based on your previous diaries - HAVE YOU GOT THE PASSPORTS :eek:
