 Maybe worth a try? worst case... you have an extra item of clothing to wash x

            hello all
 very breezy here today, but we have had the odd glimmer of sunshine so not too bad.
 new to me laptop froze and then got the dreaded blue screen of death a few days after I got it :eek: didn't really want to spend £12 returning it so I googled a bit on ipod and after managing to put it in safe mode I retuned it to last known good configuration, touch wood its working ok now!!! feel quite proud of myself as Im not a computer whizz or anything 
 my faithful dyson finally died on me the other day but DH did some swapsies at a Gift Show he was working at and came home with a brand new Hoover bagless vac :j
 so have hoovered, wm is on, DS is washing up (:eek:) and I am about to watch Deal or no Deal 
 Hugs to all, especially poorlies and those with worries xx0

            Awww thank you to everyone for your lovely comments!
 My husband took that photo at the weekend to show a friend my dress, then I wrote my yearly letter to the proffessor who fixed my knees, added both photo's and I suprised myself how much I had changed!
 I just hope it's an inspiration for others... there is no magic... just a slow and steady weight loss (90lbs in 115 weeks) and i've gone up twice during the last 2 years (fisrt time by 5lbs, then second time 8lbs) so even i'm not perfect!
 And not once did I diet (until my health dictated a change in diet that is), just exercise and sensible eating (which means chocolate!)
 I still have 2 stone 11lbs to go to my ultimate goal I set back in January 2009 and never thought I would get too!!
 I'm 70% of the way to that goal... so I can see myself getting there within 2 years We spend money we don't have, on things that we don't need, to impress people we don't like. I don't and I'm happy!:dance: Mortgage Free Wannabe :dance:Overpayments Made: £5400 - Interest Saved: £11,550 - Months Saved: 240 We spend money we don't have, on things that we don't need, to impress people we don't like.

            Evening all:j:j
 Not long in from work, Lets just say im glad its friday tomorrow.
 Well what was i saying about the twins yesterday???
 We put the twins to bed. They were fast asleep within 15mins. We cooked our dinner and we had just sat down to eat itwhen we heard funny nioes comming from upstairs. Then lots of shouting and crying. We went up and twin one had been sick all over her cot.:(
 We cleaned her up and she was sick a bit more in the toilet. Sorted her bed out and put her back down to sleep. She soon went off. She woke up only once in the night but was not sick. I dont know how she has been today as iv not spoken to my wife yet, The twins are at her moms today..
 My wife only work mornings on a thursday. She is at this moment out shopping to get us a new microwave.
 We were cooking some peas in ours last night and it went bang on us:mad::mad: We have had it about 5 years so its not really that old.
 So last night what not a pleasent restfull evening that i could have done with. Im hopeing that this evening will be better,
