Hi Cait, sorry you're having such a rough time at the moment. I hope you're feeling better soon. I'm by no means a regular poster here but I do enjoy Reading this thread everyday, mostly as I'm nosy and like to see what everybody has been up to!!

Got all my food shopping done today, exhausted after carrying bags back from the two miles it is to the supermarket and then round the corner to Lidl after I'd gotten home to get the basics and heavier things.
Did my beef and ale stew in the slow cooker today and it's yummy, have portioned it up and it's all gone in the freezer now for quick meals after work.
I'll make soup tomorrow in it.
Got some bargains at morrisons 35p for an almost out of date Indian selection of Samosas and bhaajis so have put them in the freezer for a later date when i get the munchies for something spicy.
Also got some lambs liver as it was cheap, used to hate it as a kid but want to try it again to see if I can at least tolerate eating it now as it's such a cheap meal. Going to cook it with some onions and gravy next week. If I still hate it, it was only 80p so won't feel to bad about binning it!!
Feeling a teeny tiny bit sorry for myself today as my friend has just had a baby, and whilst I'm so so happy for her, I can't help but feel like I'm being left behind. All my friends are settling down with fellas etc and I'm still single, with no fella on the horizon.
At least I have managed to recover myself from last nights slight binge eat though. Have eaten way within my calorie allowance today and the 4mile walk must've burned some cals too, so I'm feeling pretty good in that respect.
I always struggle with my weight, it's not that I'm over weight, in fact I could probably do with gaining just a little, but I had a slight episode with an eating disorder a few years ago when I was about fifteen and have never really got over that sort of mind set, but I am at a healthy weight now, I do obsess about it from time to time, particularly when feeling a little sorry for my self!!
Anyway. Just sat relaxing now watching the tv and listening to the wind rattling around my flat, scary!

Late one from me.

Well, OH is leaving tomorrow morning at 3:30! for a last minute job that's come in. The river we live by (only a small local one) is currently flooding and we'll be the first to get it, so will be moving cars in a minute for save them, and I've STILL got an upset stomach, though that is probably more due to stress about OH going away and my job start on Monday than anything else.

Ho hum, something disastrous always happens when OH goes away.

I haven't had time to read the thread today, so hope everyone is well, and hugs to those who need them.

Thank you LittleLauz, I will be fine, I always am, eventually, just sometimes I need of offload, my health has not been as good as it should be for the last couple of years, so sometimes I struggle, hate telling OH just how bad I feel sometimes, cos he suffers with depression and there is no point in worrying him any further. I am overweight which does not help, despite years of dieting, etc, but I used to be very fit, so the weight, where I don't like it, didn't actually interfere too much with my well being, if you know what I mean. Don't worry your head about being on your own just now, I am a firm believer that there is someone out there for everyone, you just have not met him yet, trust me.

V8M, I hope you are OK, a flooding river does not sound too good, especially if you are going to be on your own, but good luck with the job on Monday, hope it goes well for you.

Cait...good to see you again, sorry that you are feeling under the weather at present, I think that the awful weather we have had since the end of November is not helping anyone to feel their best.
Good luck with the Zumba class....would be afraid to chance it at my advanced age....although that could just be an excuse! Have accepted your friend request on facebook.

Many thanks for kind comments about Kerry....she is not talking to me at present as I wouldn't throw a toy for her to bring back to me...no doubt we will make it up before we go to bed.

Hugs to all, sleep well
