Hey all,

I've got a little more time now, soooooooooooooooooooo

It is sad to see lots have disbanded from this fab thread ( i can't really say much as i was away for a fair few weeks - life eh) - everybody back if you please :rotfl:!!

All of my C/Cards have been paid off but have got a few hundo back on BC card as had a bit of a wild spending spree (was feeling really blu and just let loose:eek:) anyway OH knows about BC so i feel ok about it (as does he) last payment off of my loan in April so that's another payment saved but will have to start putting it back into savings to start building it back up again in light of having to buy new car in next few months.

All of the lovely gardeners amongst you - any offers to pop over to my patch:rotfl:- i had young tomoto plants on the go that have died, messenbranthemum (something like that) seeds growing beautifully then the soil turned mouldy and the plants died ( bit of a common theme developing here me thinks) courgettes are looking ok, grass has been cut, pots have been moved around in anticipation of planting bedding stuff next month - it's not looking great but is looking better than it was!!!

S/W (aka fat club) is going good - lost a stone in 5 wks - yippee (only 2.5 stone to go:D)
Anyway have half a leftover roasted butternut squash, mushroom and onion stirfry with egg fried rice (oil spray ofcourse) for dinner - may even live on the edge and have a yogurt as well (rock n roll!!!!) - off to do 'just dance' on the Wii with the kids - wish me luck!!!!

Hope you're all buzzing around again sooooooooooooooooon

Hey nice to see people back again

Trixiepix sorry to hear you're blue xx Well done on your stone lost Cant help with the plant, although just womder if its a little early for tomatoes to be out? Maybe the others went mouldy coz they were a bit soggy? No expert though

Jezebel - Good idea with the clothes trying on. I did quite well with selling little bits here and there for 99p etc. But still have a full airing cupboard and wardrobe with stuff I havent worn for ages..... Will get some time soon and try everything on. Have lots of pairs of trousers hanging up that'll I'll probably never wear again as I can wear jeans at work (perks of being the boss :cool:)

DansDad due back today some time. I'll miss not having the bed to myself One of the cats honked up all over the bed last night (lovely).... Giff was sound asleep when I went to give him his breakfast this morning :A Dear old soul...

I was naughty spendy yesterday and bought another new bike helmet. the one I bought last month turned out to be totally naff, so wore that once :mad:. (Now on ebay) The new one is my usual 'brand' ie expensive. It should have been £394.99 :eek: I got it plus an additional visor for £373 :cool: shhh Although because of that I'm not going to make my NSD target.

Spring continues to spring in my garden. I have baby robins, baby wrens, baby bunnies in the field and had a close encounter with a baby fox yesterday

Hope you're all well, wheres SidneysMum????:o

Hey all,

Dansmum - good to know you are still out there - how is the lovely Dan, is his leg fully healed now??

My Tomato plants were on my kitchen windowsill and had just 'thinned' them into individual pots and then they pegged it (maybe i should hang up my gardening gloves!!!) messembreanthemums are actually starting to revive a bit, so fingers crossed!! Dansmum your garden sounds idilic, i would love to have more wildlife lurking around but along with a few blue tits the only regular visitors to my garden are two hulking great wood pidgeons that teeter on my bird table scoffing the seed!!

Sounds as though you had a good deal with your cycle helmet, i guess it's that old saying of you get what you pay for!!

Jezebel, well done with the ebaying, i've lost my ebaying mojo over the last few weeks but i really must get jiggy with it again and there is stuff falling out of my infamous 'cupboard under the stairs' waiting to be listed.
My wardrobe is busting at the seams too, it really is straining under the weight of the amount of clothes plus i'm now at the point where i can barely find anything because it's soooooooooooo full - think i'm gonna have to get rid of stuff that's now too big (incentive not to put weight back on) and the stuff that i bought to hide my shape rather than what i particularly liked (mental note - GET ON WITH IT) plus a whole lots more if i'm gonna get a workable wardrobe again.

My mum is constantly sending things to me to ebay as she's been sorting her clothes out over the last few weeks (she has 4 big wardrobes of clothes) but i find the bags are just now cluttering up my house rather than hers as i've not been ebaying!! - i'm reluctant to just charity shop it all as i'm sure i can make some money from it but on the flip side when things are selling for only 99p it get a bit disheartening and i wonder whether it's worth bothering.

Anyway, all i know is something has got to give with the amount of clothes in the house (both my girlies and mine - it's obscene the amount of stuff we all have plus i'm fed right up with washing and ironing and having to try to find space to put everything away) - time for a clearout again!!!!

Anyway, spends for the day - bought a few little things to put with my mums mothering sunday gift (budgeted for) and a new clothes prop for one of my washing lines - which was broken when i got it home:mad:, so have to return it at some point, had some freesia bulbs bought for me, so i may get around to planting those in the next few days.

Anyway, enough waffling - have fun
