    DF0D, I am really pleased with myself. Never managed this long before !!

    Also forgot to mention a little spending spree on Saturday. Went shopping for something to wear (at this point in the horrendous changing room mirrors) I usually have a paddy and sulk. I actually felt great and ended up spending £120 on various things :eek:. DH offered to pay aswell :T I think its because he knows how I've struggled in the past xx

    Evening Diary,

    Just popping for by for a quick catch up. Forgot to say yesterday was NSD3. Today has been a smallish spend day, £3 on acetone to soak my shellac off and £3 on ice creams for the girls.

    Was so busy at tea time, got in from after school club and cracked on with the tea, tomorrow nights tea and then lunches. Kitchen was a bit of a mess when DH got in and he had the cheek to say it looked like I was struggling :mad:, wouldn't mind seeing him preparing 3 things at once! I got him told haha!!!

    Food:
    Breakfast - weetabix
    Lunch - vege stir fry (from home) and chocolate pudding and chocolate custard (from school since it was a special menu!)
    Tea - Sausage, mash, stuffing, yorkshire puds, carrots, leeks and parsnips
    Snacks - fruit, oats and yoghurt, actimel
    Just sitting down with a horlicks and special k biscuits now and feeling a bit tired after 22.5k steps today :j

    In other news today, I've managed to get a load line dried, another load in doing its thing at the minute and will go out tomorrow as its been glorious here and due to be tomorrow aswell.

    Also had my 6 week blood test so will see if anythings changed when I ring up Friday for my results.

    Think thats all from me. Hope all ok x

    DD2 came home with some awful news today. One for the dads from her class has died in a traffic accident last week. I haven't seen him since the last party a couple of months ago and he was such an outgoing guy and its made me feel so gutted for them all. Life is too short :( Even DH was bothered by it when I told him.

    What horrible news, things like that put life into perspective don't they.

    Strange I hear a line of a song today on the radio and it really hit me in terms of how I live my life etc.. you've just reminded me to seek the song out tonight.

    Well done on the NSD

    Evening Diary,

    Wow I'm tired tonight! Got my blood results back and my levels are normal again so I know its just busy tiredness and not thyroid.

    Thanks DF0D and PLMBL for your messages, it really does make you count your blessings. Did you find the song DF0D?

    So today was the first day we came straight home after school and I think thats why I'm so tired.

    Food today:
    Breakfast - crumpets
    Lunch - BLT on wholemeal thin and strawberries and yoghurt
    Tea - cooked breakfast
    Snacks - cereal bar and some crinkle crunch biscuits

    Not the most healthy today really but hey ho.

    So busy day tomorrow, kids football training in the morning, shopping being delivered and then the dog has a visit to the vets.

    Ive just ordered a new dishwasher as mines had it, cant complain its been going strong for 7 years and its been used to death! Its just not been right since they came out to it last and baumatic have now been taking over by candy and the parts are just not as good. Got a bargain at £154 on my v3ry account with £10 cashback.

    Think thats all from me, happy weekend all x
