    i'll have a look into our coop tomorrow then, sometimes i find that not all tablets get everything off the plate hence the question. Glad OH got over himself.

    Morning All, a visit to the bank at lunchtime is in order to pay in some money. Will need to re-order my birthday present jeans as the first pair were sized wrongly and had to go back. Making my list for this week, looking for some bargains for the freezer.

    Have the 10p broccolli i bought last night. Will that be ok in with pork and black bean sauce? or should I use it for another meal?

    Ok, money paid in. Have self-assessment to do tonight.... joy. Have loaded the shopping cards (get a discount on what I load on to it so its like getting a free small item every week). I re-ordered my jeans (these ones better be ok), ordered my moisturiser and bought some other bits and pieces out of my birthday money. I have £2.85 left which I will transfer to BC later this week. If I don't post to say I've done it by friday (pay day), somebody remind me!

    OH has ordered what he wants for Valentines day. I was panicking about the cost (£155-£175), but he's said I only need to pay £75 to it as it was so expensive....... way more expensive than we agreed but he does need it. He's asked me what I would like and said a couple of bras. I could do with them and it saves me buying them.

    Decided to finally change my avatar. Found this one that looks like my dog when she pounces on daffodils!

    it does LT, she loves them so did my other dog (her Mum). They both both love pouncing on them then happily rip them up root and all and bring them to me :D, I can't get mad because its just so cute and they are funny when they do it.


    Tax return is all done, I'm a couple of hundred pounds poorer. :(. Should have it already saved but didn't (car repairs etc) so will pay it back from my tarot over next few weeks. Glad to have it out of the way. Why do they have to make the forms so complicated?


    .......it was definitely a bad idea to weigh myself tonight (can't remember the last time i weighed myself but normally do it in the morning). Can you put on a stone between morning and night? I would normally weigh myself in the morning, when I weighed myself there I was obviously wearing trousers, t-shirt, jumper and shoes and have eaten today. Does it make a big difference?

    £2.85 paid to BC/Egg. :j


    After my scales fright I really need to lose some weight. I am getting a sore back from being quite top heavy iyswim. OH had suggested a while ago I get a reduction done because it's causing me so much pain. But after careful consideration and a lot off googling about what they actually do (its horrendous! :eek:) I've decided I'm too squeamish to have a surgeon cut in to me like that. Will be doing weights (2 juice bottles filled with water!) and seeing if some of these skin firming creams work. If anyone else has a similar problem I'd be interested to hear if you've found a solution.
