    It posted!!! I'm a genius!

    And I forgot to say, can't believe how close your honeymoon is Birdie! Glad your Mr has chippered up a bit too. OH gets like that if I plan something too much, and visa versa! You can never win really! I actually bought something for my holiday today - travel sized dry shampoos stickered to 50p in Boots. I might have more pennies in the bank, but I'm still MSE! I paid with points!! :money:

    Yey Cinny's alive! I had horrible image's of you off swimming in a bath of molten gold and turning yourself into a human statue :D

    Oh, I did. I'm typing with a Stephen Hawking machine!

    Things got better with them, but now they seem worse. As a duo of doom! Zus emailed me when she got to America upset because he was too fussed over keeping his ladylove sweet than seeing her properly before she went. I got her a leaving card and everybody pretty much wrote a novel in there to her and all he put was 'have a spiffing time' (because naturally, as the card buyer I have a right to read the messages :cool:) I'm just thinking now, if they really want to block the rest of the family out that's fine. Totally up to them, just have the balls to tell us first.

    I am Jillian brainwashed, so I will say anything with her purdy face in it! Really, I would shred. It's a 30 minute workout including the warm up and cool down, and it BURNS. Surely you can find 30 minutes? If you think about it, exercise will beat out any stress along with fat, and calories, and just general bad feelings. You'll sleep better for it, have more energy because of it and just feel better. It's not wasted time, you know it isn't! Make it your October challenge or just say (from when you're better!) for 31 days you will find 30 minutes everyday to exercise. No excuses. Just make sure at least 5 of those days the 30 minutes is spent doing something relaxing instead for a rest day. A big bubble bath, curl up with a book. Just make sure those 30 minutes are spent on you - don't go thinking 'well it's a rest day today, I'll spend the 30 on ebay.' I will personally hunt you down and force you to relax if you do! Because my Sister says I'm badass now.

    And I'd very much like to have his children if OH wouldn't mind, which I don't think he would.

    Cinny this reads like you and OH are...loose...in your monogomy

    You'll need to come up then, no way she'll just relax.

    Thinking I might start on the muscle side of things once the bike starts to do its job on the gut. I think 15 miles a day is pretty OK going, need to get back on it next week though, was ridiculous this week being all mopey.
    This was 6 months out of date so I've changed it.

    :rotfl: We have a strange relationship, that's for sure! We talk pretty openly about things like that, it doesn't bother either of us. But if one of us was to act on feelings without telling the other (like OH did last year when I wanted to skin him alive :A) that's when things get nasty. I don't see the problem, neither of us have ever been unfaithful to each other. Looking and flirting is just natural!

    You'll need to come up then, no way she'll just relax.

    I shall pack my weekend bag :D Can I bring a pug?

    But don't say mopey, mopey sounds all self indulgent and for no reason. You're allowed to feel as sad as you want for as long as you want!

    The thing I'm finding hard with all this is making sure I'm eating perfectly for what I'm doing. And I thought I was, until I tore a muscle and was told I needed daily protein shake to up my intake. To me protein shakes = body builders. So I never even thought of it! Then there's all the supplements, and daily detox tablets. gahh, brainspin!

    I was hiding in the mancave. Speaking of, with the disco ball, fluffy pink sofas they were dancing on while wetting the baby Evies head, those crate beers NIM was carting about actually being full of cheap Rose and terry's chocolate oranges, and them holding each other weeping at the end of Marley and Me, I'm starting to wonder if we've rubbed off on them more than expected. As you can imagine, I've been a little too shell shocked to post. :p

    NIM - How did Cinny get into the mancave? Did you remember the "No girls allowed poster?"

    Hope she doesn't have any pictures.

    is it the tracker ball or trackerpad?

    If it is the ball it could be dirt, can of air sorts that out.
    If pad, could be an electrical issue

    Yay glad to see Cinny back. Glad you made it out the man cave without being too scarred haha.

    Ruby - exciting about the interview for the job, fingers crossed on that one. The weird man sounds a bit scary at the other one.

    Dinah - i think earning your holidays sounds like a good plan.

    Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. Spent most of today cleaning in preperation for my mum visiting tomorrow.
  • Eep Cinny you scare me with your devotion! I'm jealous really. Rubbish about your brother, though more importantly is your sister having a good time?

    I'm def up for an October challenge Dinah, need to do some exercise, some clearing out and some financial bits. I've started doing the free bingo again and won £24 quid yesterday which I'm telling myself is the universe almost returning my £30 to me. Karma is restored! ETA: Just checked my day zero - I'm on 36%, but I only have 50 things on there so far. Must think of some more...

    Birdie - director of fun sounds the best job in the world, bet he'll love the balloon. You are a good wife! When I was looking at jobs for me once I found one with the job title "head of food" - I would love to tell people what I did if I had that job!

    Speaking of jobs, that man sounded very odd ruby. But great news about the prospect of the other job!

    Aw starnac, hope your ceiling holds up with whatever was going on up there!

    Is tete running today?- good luck girl!

    Better get to town, need some library books to stop me buying trashy magazines and some bits and bobs. We're having a (Very..as in by 4 and half months) belated birthday meal for my brother tonight and I feel I've been pretty money saving for his present as I've done him a hamper of food to take back to uni with him next week. Working for a food manufacturer means I bought masses of stuff for him from the staff shop for £3 then topped it up with some aldi bits. Hope he likes it!
