Cor I need some new rechargeable batteries - these ones really aren't keeping their charge for very long. Well the sun came out for a bit so I made the most of it and took a few more snaps. Thought this one was quite pretty - shame I don't have any thinner ribbon left over from making the invites!



P.S. It is very lonely on here at the moment!

MrsDrink

Found some!!
And just had enough battery life left for a few more snaps (well 27 if you wanted to know!)
What do you think?

Oh that last pic is fab, love it.

MrsDrink

Me too (Although I do giggle at my hand in the reflection of my ring!)

*whispers* - diet isnt going too good today - ha!

PinkPrincess83

Oh I hadnt noticed that will you said, but now Ive seen it I actually like it, i think it makes it looks more natural, not edited- if you get what I mean.

Oh no, how come? Surely you can make up for it though with a healthy dinner?

MrsDrink

I don't want to :rotfl:

Hi all!!!!!!!! I've been MIA all weekend, just been sooo busy. How are you all?

OK, our church music is sorted - FINALLY! We're having a singer, violinist and pianist. Now just to choose what they'll be playing - that's the easy part

Car is almost sorted, I've got a quote of £250 which is THE cheapest I've had, for a lovely vintage car. Will tell all when I get it booked.



Glad to hear that you're feeling better Emma!

Rachel - your STD design is fab, I just love the colours and PDA sound so helpful! :A

Nat - LOVING the photos of the rings in the organza! :j And that table hire is super cheap, well done you!

Silaqui - aggghhhh, I did something similar to my thumb a while back, you poor thing. Just take it easy and keep taking the AIs.

Nearly half term, and only 24 more Fridays to go! That countdown is really moving now and starting to get the jitters again.

Slipped up again last night after having a bad mood day (well bad mood week really) i had lush white bread toasted with a scrape of butter and raspberry jam. Worth every calorie though. I have resigned to the fact i may have to have a panel added as i reckon i need to shift another 1.5 stone to get in the dress comfortably. Thats the price for buying a dress in the Sale that is actually nearly 2 sizes to small. I have only lost 10lb since i brought it 5 months ago. I have lost and gained the same half stone for 3 months now :mad:

Wanchai - well done on staying strong and focused

Natalie - Good luck on the table hunt. Might you end up having to buy them and then sell them on again after? If you are covering them could you borrow from family, work colleagues, neighbours or a local park :rotfl:The odd wooden bench wouldn't be missed for one day!

Just getting the rumbles now after porridge for breakfast. I have homemade Butternut squash soup for lunch followed by a ton of fruit. H2B is off today so he is cooking me pea risotto with salmon for tea.

Thanks for the kind words. Any further news about the house?? It sounds like a great deal if it's only £25 more than you're paying now and has an extra bedroom

You can easily lose 1.5 stone in 5 months - I intend to!!!!!!! Come on, you can do it! :T:T:T

BTW, dietwise I'm doing great! I did pretty well at the weekend - ate a few naughty things but did LOTS of exercise including a big 2-hour walk yesterday!

I've decided on the following:

Weekdays - 2 shakes + dinner
Weekends - 1 shake + lunch and dinner

Hope it works! The shakes are really quite good at keeping me full for hours, I am pleasantly surprised!! WI tomorrow - please let it be good news! My tummy definitely feels less bloated.

Afternoon B2B's.

Not got anything wedding sorted this weekend but i have scrubbed and cleaned this house and i have recycled sooooo many things. The local charity shop is now full and i feel thoroughly cleansed and happy with myself. My treat is taking my daughter to see Olly Murs tonight and were having a fatty McDonalds on the way!!

Love the photos Natalie and too hadn't noticed your hand reflection. I haven't got H2B's ring yet although he has kind of choose it, but when i suggested i order it via internet he said he wants to go look at it again! He is worse than a woman. I don't think i'll find time for that trip before we have to move.

Wanchai - well done on the shakes and i bet you'll see a great weight loss hun. I have been off plan all week and i am hoping that all this cleaning and lifting/sorting will help me at least maintain this week.

House viewing at 9am tomorrow morning . . . . actually praying it is suitable inside. H2B as being very supportive and saying it won't be anything we can't fix together. We will have been engaged 1 year tomorrow. Seems like only yesterday when he came in to my office and dropped to one knee and proposed to me with ring in hand.

Mel - great going! Decluttering is fab exercise - I bet you're feeling great!!!!

Aw @ your proposal anniversary!

Good luck with the house viewing tomorrow.

Enjoy Olly Murs and the McDonalds xxx

p.s. thanks for the kind words. I am feeling VERY peckish atm, must try not to snack.
