    Aww sweet I love ABBA with a passion - if the neighbours knock the door to complain about the noise I shall say its your fault:rotfl:Might also put on a bit of Kenny G.

    Work was better than I expected today - it was hot but the time went quick, I took two small bottles of water with me today but it asn't enough and I ended up paying £1 for a small bottle of nice cold diet coke! Will take a 2 litre bottle of water tomorrow and try to avoid unecessary spends:cool:

    Managed to sneak in a MS before 'proper overtime work' today, it will cover the cost the of diesel to get me to work today and yesterday - I love it when a plan comes together:money:

    Felt really fat today, thought I looked nice but then caught sight of myself in a shop window - nasty things, should be banned! God knows how bad I must have looked pre weight loss:o But then a lovely friend saw me and said you are looking fab! She is elderly and I don't think she had her glasses on - but all compliments taken on board even if they are from slightly dotty partially sighted peeps!:rotfl:

    EDIT: Just managd to get enough points to order a £10 Evans voucher from Consumer Pulse - am desperate for some t-shirts that fit, so that will help!

  • Oh no its 'silly O'Clock' and i'm wide awake, should be shattered after working the weekend but its so hot I cannot sleep, bet I can sleep when its time to go out MSing:p

    I am watching some complete drivel on MTv in the hope it sends me off, however watching Celebrity Scandals is proving quite funny!:o

    There are some birds having a party outside my living room window - I thought they didn't wake up to play until it gets light??? Who would have thought some little feathered rats could make so much noise?

    Did some sorting out earlier and found some bits n pieces that can be ebayed - lets hope I have more luck than last time. I am sure I will find loads more as there are two rooms still to be 'mucked out'! Also the clothes I bought in the sale earlier on in the year are too big now so they need selling off:eek:. Annoyingly I took the tags off one of the tops on Friday, put it on then realised it looked rediculous and actually made me look fatter than I am (god, is that really possible:p)

    Wish hubby wasn't asleep, I could do more sorting out then and start ebaying! See always after making money even at 4am!

    Em, couldn't find cappucino or bar. But if it's a cereal type bar it's at least 12.

    However, as there are 22.5 sys in the muffin I suspect it doesn't really matter :whistle:.

    Hope this helps :rotfl:

    Lol I found out this morning if you ate a blueberry muffin every day for a year on top of what you normally eat it is the equivalent of eating 86 packs of lard - and will put 3 stone 8lbs on you!!!

    OMG that is so scary!:eek: You will all be pleased to hear that I have cancelled my visit to said coffee shop next week, if I get the sack from the MS compnay in question I will be blaming you lot:p

    I have spent a very productive afternoon sorting out my bedroom, it almost looks respectable now! Aw how I love different boxes to put things in so they don't get lost/trampled on/eaten by the dog etc......

  • Woops I've been AWOL!

    Sorry, I've been having a busy bee time.

    Need to get my :money:fix tonight though!

    I am still really chuffed with my cleaning lady, she does a great job, we have settled on £15 per week, I give her a list, if its too long she doesn't finish it! Although she is doing everything so far so i'm hoping the balance is right.

    I am working an early extra shift tomorrow and have 4 MShops in the same town to do afterwards:D. All helps with the diesel bills for getting to 'proper' job.
    I did the simpliest MS ever today (I bet it gets sent back now i've said that!) I had to make a phone call, the write up took me 15 minutes and the actual call took 2 minutes:eek:. Pay £7, if only all mystery shops were that easy and quick!

    I have 9 jobs booked for Monday, think I might have next weekend off from all money making:eek:

    I am trying to get a better balance in my life, I hate housework (theres a suprise to all you regular readers:rotfl:) and would much prefer to do some extra MShops and pay someone else to do it for me. I am doing a little sorting/tidying daily in the hope that eventually my house will look presentable and I don't have to pretend i'm not in when someone knocks the door in case they want to come in:o

    Things seem to be settling down somewhat with my parents so that is good.

    I have been pretty pants on my diet, managed to lose a whole half pound this week - better off than on though eh?:p So I am now 1 stones 1.5lb lighter.

    I hope everyones well.

    TPAxxx

    Ever feel lik your fighting a losing battle?

    Went to work at 7.50am this morning, promptly reversed into a lampost in the carpark!

    Did five MShops on the 'way home' finished writting them up at 6:40pm, although I have to admit taking a 20 minute break to eat a sandwich I bought from M&S:eek: Today I have eaten: Two pieces of granary bread with banana on, one muller light, another banana, apple, sandwich, packet of monster munch, jam rolly polly with disgusting custard, half a humongous packet of cheese biscuits, packet of snack a jacks, three quarters of a bottle of Merlot (Echo falls if your interested:p) tube of fruit pastels..............and a slimming world chocolate bar:rotfl:

    I did walk the dog for three quarters of an hour but thats really not going to make a dent in the rediculous overeating self distruction I have been on:mad:

    Oh well, tomorrow is another day:(

    TPAx

    Edit: woops make that a whole bottle of echo falls merlot..i'm going to hav a headache on the morning, but should sleep well!
