  • Oh Jo that's a terrible thing to happen. Thank god you'd locked the door. Hope you're ok :)
  • Good morning all

    Jo - ((Hugs)) missus. Must have been really frightening for you. Hope you're ok now.

    13 for me please Shaggy

    1 for me please Pen!

    Still full of cold today but sinuses a bit better so am at work. Not that I want to be - the girl who sits opposite me is driving me demented. She's done no work at all since I arrived at 10. grrr!:mad:

    Had snow here this morning so Piglet very excited. I've had to promise him a snowball fight after school otherwise he was going to pelt me with them this morning :eek:. Plus we had a very interesting conversation about snowmen....he reckons they have no bums :rotfl::rotfl::eek:!!!

    Anyway, best get and do some work.

    Miss P

  • Hello everyone,

    Sorry not been on for a few days - been very busy.

    4 more AFDs for me please Shaggy!

    So apart from today that's November done target-wise and I am going to have a drink today folks, so November's AF target remains as it stands now for me - sorry!

    I filed my divorce proceedings today and am feeling sad. Not horrendous bawling and crying, snot nosed, rip my heart out kind of sad, but more a pensive, end of a chapter in my life, feeling sorry that it didn't work out, kind of sad. (I did the snot-nosed, dribbling bawling bit a while ago, but don't tell anyone :shhh: !!!)

    Jo - awful ordeal. Just goes to show that locking your car doors all the time is sooo important, because you never know who is about.

    Hugs to everyone,
    Caz

    Jo what a frightening thing to have to experience.
    Hugs caz, sorry it is such a sad day for you.
    maman, I agree with what you say about SW. It is a plan not a diet. I was just feeling peckish so was able to eat until full (of the right things) without any feelings of guilt. I love it.

    1 more AF day for me and another 1lb lost too :D

    Pen - Count me in for a pre Christmas Detox - I could do with my skin clearing up some more and regaining some radiance!

    Jo - OMG, I am shocked to read about what's happended. Hope you are ok now x Sending over some sparkly chocklit for you

    Super tired tonight, little bell rang in my head for a drink but not having one and having a hot choccie instead so makes it 22 AFD for Nov. Gearing up for a AFD week ahead, anyone joining in?
