Morning all
Wonderful weather here, too, one load just about to go out, DS bringing home more soap powder after his driving theory test. :eek:
Got mindee again today - she and DD had some sort of spat, mindee inconsolable, but they just fought over a toy - didn't come to blows! Poor kid, not been away from mum much, although quite outgoing, think she finds it hard "sharing" with children her age - more used to fighting with older sister! :rotfl:
Seems to be various bits of bad news floating about - sorry to hear people are down - sending good thoughts your way and lighting virtual candles for you all!

no idea why i'm posting, no os will be done here today. not having agreat day. i'm doing all sorts of things to body and feeling awful because of it. my problems run far deeper than i would ever admit on here. i am just too ashamed of ymself to make it known.
anyway i need to focus and do something. yesterday i spent most of the day going from the bed to the sofa and back again. washed ds' sicky bedding and that was iti need to do at least one thing today. something useful prefably
anyway i'm moaning. hope everyone else is having better day"I have learnt that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one""You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.”Maya Angelou0 -
Morning!
Looks lovely today, but still a bit nippy and wet outside!
I have spent the morning making gift tags for my Christmas Pressents...!
Well the Bread and WM are on, my washing didn't dry yesterday on the line (?!?!?!) so I hope it will today or I am just going to keep drying indoors!!
Well I have to sort out the Church Flower Rota today, but it's a slow day

Buenas Dias
See how kind I am sending you some sun from Spain :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: My intention is to pack some in the boot too on our return - let's see if it escapes in France again.
Bitsy those cakes on Facebook were brill, I liked the viking.
I think I have caught up with sleep now, the couple of days driving around London:eek::eek: finding floor varnish:cool: in very inadequately stocked Wickes and B&Q with staff who hadn't a clue,plus having so little time to pack in the first place by being asked to come down and help DS sand his floor, and the journey must have taken it out of me more than I thought, as I was zombie like yesterday and even had a siesta, and slept late this morning.
Tomorrow we have arranged to go down the coast to Lo Pagan and Los Alcathres and find a menu del dia. Today we are eating at home, breakfast was a couple of crispbreads with a poached egg, as I am getting back to the Low Carbing. Lunch will be some fruit and yogurt and Chicken and Ham salad tonight, yesterday due to the siesta and the lateness when I awoke we had a chicken breast each with Tortilla (Potato Omlette) and baked beans. Not very inspiring but quick and easy. Today we will try to tidy downstairs and throw a duster around. It was cleaned before we left, but out here dust magnifies without trying.
Sorry to hear about your BIl Jackie-0 and glad the news on your Mum was good NotjustLaura May I have some positive vibes here for one of our neighbours here who lives in Enfield. She is in remission from Cancer, and just managed a cruise with her husband came home and started with motion sickness, nothing has cleared it, so she had been taken into hospital for a full body scan, to make sure nothing else has arisen. She was due to come out here on Saturday so does not look like she will make it.
(((hugs))) to all especially those a bit down or under the weather. ((Bargain bird).
Take care all DGMember #8 of the SKI-ers Club

Morning all
((((hugs))) to those in need
Glorious day here, wish I'd had time to put WM on this morning so it could dry outside, but even the fast wash takes 1hour, and sadly my bed was more comfy so I stayed there! :rotfl:
In work but am billy no mates in my officegot the radio on though. A few colleagues are here but work in another office to mine and are having a meeting so I can't go join them.
I'm off to uni this afternoon, going to be horrible to sit there whilst it's so lovely out!
OS wise - ummmm...cooked pasta for my lunch this morning, WM WILL go on tonight or I'll be struggling for clothes! Need to empty DW.
Have a good day all

I am not suggesting that you should share information that you are not comfortable with sharing BUT you mustn't feel ashamed. You are who you are Lou, never be ashamed of that or for the reasons for your problems. We are not here to judge but we are here to support you whatever way we can.
Thanks for the comments re the cakes (I put pics on homepage for those of you who are lucky enough not to be friends with me on FB). The Viking isn't a cake though. He's a figure made out of sugar paste to sit on a cake. And as for doing it for a business in an ideal world sure but people don't really want to pay what it costs ergo the margins are too small for me to do it. The sleeping beauty cake we made for DD in July cost £25 in ingredients alone :eek: When you factor in the labour involved.......I'd be earning less than I do now :eek:

Ahem
Thanks for the PM's. Feeling much better now
.
Have missed too much probably but trying to back track will be a nightmare, so hugs and positive vibes to those who need one.
Bitsy - Ditto with DD and DS going to pre-sch, i have much less inclination, i think it's the break of having to collect etc that does it more me.
Uolypool - Hows DD ?
DG - Thanks lovey xx
So whats happened......DD1 has her hamster aka fatboy :rotfl:, DD2 and DS have their gold fish, DD1's wardrobe/chest of drawers are still in their boxes in the hallway, paint is coming next wednesday :cool:. Had my barnet chopped off :T, went to the cricket end of season bbq (even though DH dosen't play everyone was welcome
). DD1 has grasped PMT - I told her AF is due this week her reply " oh, thats why i'm miserable and ratty" You got it.
Um think thats about it....will catch up on FB tonight

Hi everyone,
BB glad you're feeling more the thing. Jackie O, sorry to hear your sad news. Loulou - Sorry you are so down, just post what you feel comfortable with, no-one is or should be judging you.
I was meant to be going to the Greenwich Maritime museum with DS today but he didn't wake up in time. I'm not really sorry because it's so hot it probably would have been very tiring.
I'd lost another 1.5lb at weightwatchers this morning. i'd like to lose the same before we go away in 10 days so that I will have lost 2st in total.0
