    Hi Choc addict!

    I completely empathise with you brick wall. I am feeling a bit the same as well! all work and no play makes me a dull MM. And my menu planning is going out the window as I just feel at work all the time. I'm also trying to loose weight as well. Am currently 10 -4 but would like to be just under 10!

    Sorry about your toothache, that's the worst pain ever I think. I had a wisdom tooth out this week! on a positive note, the tooth fairy left me a shiny £2 coin under my pillow the went in my sealed tin!

    Hope you feel better soon.

    Choc-addict, sounds like you need to give yourself a wee break hun. We can't be super women all the time!

    Enjoy your weekend with OH and hope the toothache is sorted soon. Pen x
    This time I haven't smoked since 6th Jan 2014 and still going ok.
    Fingers crossed x

    Choc i definitely agree with penelopedee...give yourself a little break. Perhaps make sure you don't do any overtime next weekend and make sure you make the most of a relaxing weekend off. You are doing so well but need to make sure you don't end up getting too exhausted! xx

    Hey MM!

    Seems we are aiming for similar weight target - i'm sure we'll get there :D

    Ooh, sorry to hear about your toothache probs too - mines still playing up, although easing off. Managed to sleep last night which is a plus! Love the tooth fairy :rotfl:

    Thanks Pen and Kel - I have a day off tomorrow and spending it with the girls as their bdays. We're off to lovely hotel in New Forest for high tea - can't wait! Lots of champagne and lovely cakes :p

    Ok so working again today, only doing a few hours and giving myself the rest of the day off probably about 2ish or so.

    NSD for me yesterday :j and my Daddy gave me two shiney £2 coins :j Did offer him the money but he wouldn't take it and then when I got home I realised that he's slipped £20 into my purse with a note saying enjoy your afternoon with the girls - bless my Daddy, so nice of him. I'm a lucky girl.

    Off to update totals and then will be back on later to catch up with everyones diaries and update.

    Hope everyone is enjoying their weekends :Dx
