Hi All! Not posted here in ages. Is it Lamewolfs birthday? Happy Birthday !

things have been hectic lately , just when you think things are calming down , something else happens!

Anyway, i started a new project last night I have been meaning to do - inspired by this, and here are my results - what do you think?

Just started, side one


More progress side 2


Was going to use it as some sort of table mat for the centre ? It matches the colours in my room..... Or does it look like ive sat and cup up old rags and tops and knitted them? :rotfl:

Am trying my hand at growing veg so have coriander, lettuce, onions , toms and peas etc on the go - showing little shoots, so its all very exciting. How long before i kill them?:mad::D

Made a variation of no cook couscous salad today - no energy. Really trying to eat more fruit and veg, so all else ive had today was a Hm smoothie:j Also off bread for a week at least as I rely on it sometimes for meals far too often - toast on/sambos/sandwiches/pizzas/toast/bread and soup etc Also going to avoid pasta as it seems to make me swell up like a hot air balloon :rotfl:

Am attempting making yog in the SC too for the first time ever. Will see how that goes !

Can't think of what else to report. Love and hugs to all ! :j:A

Evening everyone.

Sun is shining here, but still very cold. Didn't get chance to update my post yesterday.

Took DS2 to hospital yesterday afternoon to see a dentist there as he will not even sit in the chair or let them near his mouth with any tools at our dentist. Result is that he has to have 3 teeth out. They went to use the tool to dry his mouth a little and he was out of the chair within seconds. They have decided that they will do it under general anaestetic. Anyway this afternoon, had a phone call and have to be at hosp 8.30am Thursday morning. I haven't told him yet! I feel like such a bad mother that he needs 3 teeth out, but he wont let anyone near him to do anything, and has a bad needle phobia.

Also had a phone call from my Aunt that my wedding invites have the wrong date on, cant blame anyone else other than myself as I made them:mad:. At least I have only sent out the 1st 10.

Not much os today, but yesterday joined the flylady and managed to do level 1, make a spag bol and curried lentil soup. Today I am going to try again to do the level 1 before bed.

Diva - Nice to see you, hope you start to feel better.
Lamewolf - Happy Birthday:beer:
Gemmabuckle - belated birthday wishes.
Bitsy - would your ds not use one of the hand reins that fasten round the wrist, mybe he can be told it could be taken off if he holds your hand.
Lindy-Loo - hope your DN is okay after her op.

Hugs to anyone else in need. Enjoy the rest of your evening. Take Care

Thanks Haribo. I've deleted it actualy, it didn't feel right talikng about it on here, sort of disloyal, you know? The hug is very much appreciated, thank you, feeling a bit down tonight, might even let the dog up on the couch for a cuddle (for me, not her!). Glad to hear you are keeping busy, just don't burn that candle at both ends!

Was thinking about you on Sunday as we were in Kelvingrove park and there were some nutters having a dog training session. Didn't spot Coco though.

The biggest downside of me working FT has come from the dog transferring all her affection to OH. She ignores me completely and is beyond possessive of him. I even got pushed out of bed last night.

Take care Missus. xxx

The dog. She's the only animal I know who can sleep spread eagled.
OH got the blame though, and a dead leg.
