Yes, I have 'decided' that it will all be ok. But then that does mean long term medication for High Blood Pressure but it's better than a bad scan!

I have been taking blood pressure meds for about 6 years now, and will most likely have to for the rest of my life. I have had a kidney scan a couple of ECGs and 3 diabetes tests over the years and the cause of my high BP is unknown. but i know its cos i dont exercise at all and need to lose weight. i have cut out adding salt to my food and dont eat as much cheese (hardly ever) and the weight loss thing....we'll see. am thinking of doing WW or something from july so i might look nice for Kian's christening and then for our jollies later in the year

Have just checked my bank,expecting a pitiful £30 balance.
And there is a mahooosive payment gone in from Tax Credits.

Woo hooooo! :j:jWoo hooooo! :j:j Whoo hooooo!:j:j

:j:j:j:j:j:j:j

am still hoping here! but i'm hoping that i might have an extra payment next week as it seems to be 2 weeks after I ring when they give me a new payment.

and i dont blame you for not telling DH, mine will not get told the true amount.

DH gone to vet with the cat.

HV check went great. Kian is now 16lb 15oz, 70cm long. she said ooh he's going to be tall! His weight is 9th and height is 50th centile. he's being referred to eye specialist as BIL has glaucoma and has done since he was 2 or 3 and is registered blind. she said most likely Kian will see eye specialist once a year. eating...said just to keep trying and not to give him a bottle all the time as he is being lazy and depending on that. said he will be cranky (great :cool:) for a few days but will be ok. Said to give him food and let him eat what he wants adn then give him a beaker of water. starting tomorrow so we shall see.

I'm jumping on all sorts of bandwagons this week... My Amazon book arrived this morning (along with another I ordered at the same time...) I have just been on th'eBay and bought a roll of lilac tulle and an amber teething necklace...

My monster just lay herself down on the carpet and went to sleep so Daddy's gone off to fetch Aimee from school on his own but I should have 5 mins peace to get the pork chops in for tea... (they went OOD yesterday so I'm pushing my luck a little lol...)

And the mushrooms are fine in the pasta sauce... They floated a while but seem to have distributed themselves a little better now...

Edit: And my wonderful husband is 1 of a kind... and all mine

But if you want him to have a word with your OH's... Pm me their numbers and I'll pass them on lol...

I didn't tell my OH the amount either because it's irrelevent to him as I'm the one who spends the money. He buys food etc. if I ask him to and clothes/shoes when I get fed up of him complaining that his are falling to pieces and tell him he just needs to go and buy some.

I bought that book a couple of months ago for DH's birthday from Holly. It really is a lovely book, although every line he read her, I had to interject with "Actually, it's mummy who does that, and that, and that etc"! ha ha. I am now stuck for a Father's Day present.

I only rang last Thursday. So less than a week ago.

DS1 left his crisps unattended on the sofa and now Amber is having a snack lol!

I think I'm going to scrub the kitchen a bit, it looks minging.

ETA, I had a different amount in the bank today from CTC, but they can give you a larger amount one week, and then less the following weeks.
