    Morning :hello:

    Just getting ready to go out need juice and shower gel so will walk into town and then go and get weighed which I'm dreading tbh as I've not tried at all and ate all the naughty things but this is what stress does to me I guess so hoping the rain stays off xx

    Thanks for all your sympathies regarding my friends my
    Um we've been friends since we were 8 so it's hard seeing her going through this but all I can do is be there for her xx

  • Morning abba,


    Hope the weather by you is better than in Dorset otherwise you are going to get soaked on your walk :(.


    I wouldn't stress too much about your weigh in, we all have ups and downs and last week was your down. Hold your head high and move on. After the week you have had it is no surprise you have put the diet on the back burner xxxxx


    Have a good day xxx

    It was very cloudy but the rain held off thank goodness xx

    Got weighed gained 3.5lbs over 2 weeks which I guess isn't too bad but I'm back on it :D xx

    Bit of a spendy day :o got shower gel £1.59 then popped into BHS spent £9 on a jumper for dd and a top £2.50 in the sale of course :D then went to farmfoods to get mine and dd's juice £3.95 for mine and £2.50 a weeks worth of juice for school saves a fortune considering one bottle costs £1.15 yet I only spent £2.50 for 6 bottles so that's a winner for me

    Popped into tesco for mine and baby k's lunch as it's tradition on a Tuesday after weigh in :D finished my nieces Xmas got her a coat was £16 reduced to £10 and a pair of Minnie Mouse joggers £10 reduced to £5 to go with a top I got her in August so that's her done xx just my two nephews to get now xx

    Sitting chilling with baby k start work at 3pm today xx

    :hello: morning

    Started work at 7.30am this morning (kids are eating breakfast as I type) need to go to shops for washing up liquid and ham for sandwiches so we will take a walk as it's meant to stay dry xx

    I have £60 odd pound in my purse going to see if I can make it stretch the rest of the week I have a 18th birthday party on Friday so need to get a present for that today as well not going mad as quite frankly we can't afford lavish presents right now need to watch the pennies as because of court I'm not making a lot of money from my childminding as parents have arrange alternative care but I should get if all back from the court when I claim my expenses back xx

    MY last two avon customers paid last night so transferred £34 into the mortgage account so it's sitting at £1400 :j

    Off to get baby k dressed xx

    Oh no I wouldn't be 18 again made the stupid mistake of getting married the 1st time young and stubborn that was me :rotfl: xx

    30 is not so bad I feel more comfortable in my self since turning 30 although I reckon my kids still think I'm a clown lol do random stuff to the all the time :rotfl:

    Well we walked to B&m bought the birthday girl a present a perfume set £14.99 also got bribed for a packet of sweets 99p for a 4 pack and a bottle of water 29p but I did remember to buy my washing up liquid for £1.65

    Popped into Asda and bought billy bears for the kids £1 and a large gag of chips for £2.50 then we walked back home for lunch then dropped my mindee off at his nursery xx baby k crashed out in his buggy so I tackled my ironing pile which is all done now :T just need to put it away once baby k has woken up xx

    Baby k has started toddling between 2 and 5 steps at a time so proud of him he's such a cheeky wee thing can now climb on the couch and find the remotes for the sky and tv........stands and points them at the TV then yells because nothing is happening :rotfl: need eyes in the back of my head with this one :D

    Back on the weight watchers too so far so good she says hopefully xx

    Got £40 and change in my purse don't think I need anything for tomorrow still don't know about court yet hopefully it is tomorrow as all this waiting around is frustrating xx

    Off to catch up on other people's diary
