    Well done on the pound Elsie,:T I have tried to lose that last half stone for 4 months now, but no luck yet.(it keeps finding me) will weigh in tomorrow and post on Louises thread. (:eek:)
    Cant decide wether to wash dishes and sweep kitchen or have a bath and a drink..... good job everyone knows I'm not housewife of the year material and I'll give you one guess as to which choice wins:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:


    I'm sure that you made the right choice mrsi........you can wash the dishes this morning when you do the breakfast ones.....see saving water and energy too.!!:rotfl::rotfl:

  • Morning,

    Had to belt out to restock the cupboards, they will keep eating stuff, its very annoying. DS is coming home next week so that will be the locusts descending definitely. Its a bit dull here, but really warm, could do with a total downpour.

    Hi all:j

    Didn't get on here yesterday - what a manic time, what with puppya right devil & trying to clear out DD's[STRIKE] flat [/STRIKE] cesspit. Will need at least another visit & the carp on the floor in the communal areas I think has even broken my trusty Dyson. Will have to go armed with some real heavy duty oven cleaner - blech. What a tip, to be fair it's not just her but the others have left it in that state. Since they're not gonna be there next year - and she is - we have to get it sorted. Only good thing was that we got to keep all the food they hadn't used. You'd think it was no use, but of course it was all the fairly healthy stuff the parents provided at the start of the year, course they only ate takeaways & noodles, so all the tins etc pasta & meal ingredients all still there. No food shopping for us for a while:D though.:T

    Congrats Elsie on losing the pound - well done!! Better on than off, I did the same this weekk, well lost 3/4lb !!

    We also got paid, what a miracle, bank looks healthy for a short while & I got to pay the mortgage:T Hot here but cloudy, now got to decide what to have for lunch/dinner, that doesn't involve too much work in the kitchen:eek:

    Good morning everyone,

    Its yet another glorious day, I love this time of the morning when its a bit fresher. Its going to be around the 30 degree mark apparently today. So I am going to cook Sunday lunch for lunchtime and get it over with before it gets too hot, plus Mr E will be watching the footie this afternoon. I will watch the game but probably whilst doing the ironing or something. I'm not a bit football fan.

    Well done to you Sash on the 3/4 lb.....as you say every little helps. I am going to make a determined effort this week, we don't have any biscuits or cakes in this week, but plenty of fruit, so we'll see what happens. We have a weeks holiday planned for the end of Sept.....its Mr E's 60th so we have had it booked for months, so it would be nice to be at least a stone lighter.

    I am in serious need of a coffee, so I shall make one and watch the news for a while.

    Have a good day everyone, whatever you may be doing.

    Hi all:j

    Yes hot here as well & I am up on pup duty - just for a change:D Think I am going to make food early today - it's always boiling in the kitchen anyhow so more I can do early the better. Going to make something & stick it in the slow oven to be done later.....have a great day all:j

    Am still trying with the weight, seems to be coming off more since I more or less stopped eating bread:eek: Like you Elsie we have a hol coming up - but in August - & it's my DH's bday too then although he's 50 but looks 70 LOL:eek: Time to trade in for a younger model hehehe. had hoped to be DF by his 50th but no chance of that:eek:
