    Morning everyone.
    Quick one from me. Taking the kids to the park as I NEED to get out of this house. So not much OS going on here apart from cooking tea, which lets face it isn't exactly OS :o :rotfl:
    Still not feeling 100%, cat woke me up at 3am chewing my hair and purring in my face so she got banished. Feel tired and most definately run down so need a plan of action to get myself back on my feet. Back to work on Tuesday!!!

    Hugs, spoons and high fives all round. Have a good day OS or not.

    Morning all

    Late one for me again this morning, this cold really has knocked the stuffing out of me but i want an early night tonight to try and get up at normal time tomorrow so its not such a shock on Tuesday!

    Cooked a big joint of beef in the slow cooker over night so I'll slice that and prep the veg soon.

    Neew a tidy round and still haven't done a meal plan!

    Enjoy your day x

    morning all!

    0.6lbs down today!! woop woop.

    Going to bake some bread and cheese biscuits today (my attempt to find something hm for OH instead of crisps)

    A good friend is visiting her family round here this weekend, so going to meet up with her later :) As i am not drinking this will be a lovely a cheap meeting as i will be sticking to diet coke.

    Tree is going to come down today I think. It's lovely but we've a small living room and it takes up alot of space.

    Got some pork out the freezer tonight will probably do pork fried rice for dinner as OH has a stir fry obsession at the moment and they're healthy which is great for my diet!

    I have £40 of vouchers for waitrose, put things in my online basket last night...you really don't get much for your money there! I know it's good quality stuff, but £40 at Mr S would fill our kitchen with food. In waitrose it doesn't go so far...

    Have a wonderful day all

    Morning All

    Well I definitely need to get my a$$ in gear, so that I am ready to depart on Wednesday, need to get the washing up to date, and pack, together with finishing off some more paperwork, though I am on the up side now, would be more so if my scanner would work from my desktop, will have to do a repair on it, but not before I am sorted onto my laptop and totally backed up. Luckily can do it via my laptop.

    elfen the link is here

    Well have taken the plunge and joined WW on line, as it is best while travelling. To me it is getting towards LC now, I could do Atkins, but this is a totally alien regime to what DH can eat, as he has to be low fat, so maybe we can find something to meet a bit on here.

    Right off to get dressed and have brekky. Take care all. (((hugs))) DG

    Morning all

    Got a few bits to get done today ...back to work Tuesday plus sorting moving before the month is out!

    1. Go for a walk... so hot need fresh air!
    2. Do the bins
    3. Get a few loads of laundry done
    4. Start packing up/clearing a room at a time - see what can be sold/charity shop!

    Going to resist going back to bed and get cleaaring up :) Have a good day all

    Inlaws came yesterday with their new dogs - Had a lovely day. Always have a laugh with MIL :D
    I fully intend to have a lazy day today so dinner is left-overs from yesterday with salad.
    I will take the tree down tomorrow and get back to some sort of normality (That's an oxymoron in this house :p:rotfl::p)

    Well I am off to chill
    Have Good Days all x

  • Morning.

    I'm still in my bed at the moment as DH has let me have a much needed lie in! DS2 is back in bed, and DS1 is downstairs drawing me a picture.
    I think we will have a good walk later today with the dog and kids, to blow away the cobwebs. I am making a beef casserole for tea, so if we go after lunch, we should get back in time for a lovely smelling tea to be ready for us.
    I also want to clean out the utility room and bathroom today, as even though I'm managing to keep on top of the washing and ironing lately, those rooms aren't looking so cracky.
    Hope yo all have a good day x
