I find it so hard to do 10,000 steps every day, I normally only do 7,000 but even doing that every day last term I lost weight.

Hello btw xxx

Hi Buffy, yep, I can normally manage 7000 at school, but I need to make the effort to get it higher than that. Weekends can be as low as 2,000 - 3,000 unless I make a concious effort to go out for a walk

Right, the ebay parcel is posted, the mystery shop is done just needs submitting. I had to make a purchase while I was there (£5 in a computer shop), and they used to do loads of stationery bits but they don't anymore, so ended up buying printer paper. It was reduced from £4.99 to £2.99 and then was bogof, so ended up buying 4 packs :eek: but only cost £9, of which £5 gets refunded, so in effect £4 for 4 packs of hp printer paper :T Ds uses it for drawing, writing train timetables etc, so will get used up quickly enough

Oh Thank God I am not the only one. I use an Walk with me game on the DS to record my progress. its been a bit up and down to say the least. I used to like my walks mind you.

Why does your DS write out train timetables? (or did you mean times tables? lol)

I use the walk with me too Buffy, I like it but I'd rather just see my total score and skip all the smiley face nonsense on it

Why does my ds write out train timetables?? LOL!! My ds is obsessed with trains and the only way I can get him to do any writing / drawing is if it has some sort of train or bus link to it So he often makes up bus or train timetables / signs for stations (my room, his room, kitchen etc are the various stations and we stick signs all over the cupboards etc ). Currently my flat is a trnasport museum and I have various pictures of trains, cars, planes etc all over the walls, and a cafe menu on his wardrobe and a gift shop price list by the loo He has an amazing sense of direction and loves to work out routes and stuff

Morning all, went out with a friend last night, I drove as the cab would have been about £20 otherwise. Anyway, we bumped into another friend and ended up out til 3 this morning, and I am knackered knackered knackered now I am far too old to have just 4 hours sleep

So today, I need to go to Tescos this morning but other than that I am just planning housewrok type stuff, labelling ds uniform etc. Ds is due home at 3 so looking forward to that already Think there will be some vegging on the sofa time today too Spends last night = £7

benbenandme

Well the plan has gone a bit pear-shaped already; I was all ready to go to tescos and then realised that the £10 voucher I've got isn't valid until tomorrow, so no opint going and not being able to use it, so I've been up to tesco express and spent a tenner on bits and pieces for packed lunches and the next day or two, and will do the proper shop on tuesday.

So, a couple of other bits ticked off my list, nothing much left that must be done today, there are quite a few bits I'd like to get done but there's no pressure

benbenandme

Well I've had quite a nice relaxing day and I actually don't feel as tired as I expected to Ds is in bed singing, I've got all his stuff ready for the morning, just need to do our lunches. I've had a bath and just need to straighten my hair.

I have a meeting after school tomorrow and then may go and do the food shopping. Nothing much else to report, have a good week!
