No Money - but BIG ambitions

Hi, everyone is very different, DD was 2 when I had the twins so I prefered rest if and when I got the chance. But even if you can't use it for a while, buy it if it cheers you up I say!

Maybe you could get your toddler to join in? They might enjoy a bit of dancing

We are of a different generation to our parents thought. I find I spend a lot less time doing housework etc than my Mum does, she will always find faults but I dont care, all my friends think my house is really clean & tidy, so I am happy! You dont need to polish the silver every day...

I had Wii Zumba as a present for Christmas and haven't taken it out of the wrapper yet! Find it easier to leave the house and go for a run on a Saturday or Sunday morning when DH is here to look after little ones. Hope your little one puts in an appearance soon

Thanks newgirly, THE FEEL GOOD FACTOR of actually owning the game might just be worth spending the money:D

The first pregnancy I was size 10 up to the end, it was only AFTER the birth with a shock of being mum 24/7 I ballooned to size 14. this pregnancy I stayed size 14 all the way through so now I'm determined not to repeat the sad story and get back into size 10 to avoid a horror of going up a size or two again!

I was doing the resting when I had a chance last time, so I'm thinking I need to be harder on myself now because the extra weight really makes me feel miserable:o

I do agree with that - my mum seems to always find something to clean in the house...while I don't even see it:p

I might try playing a game with my toddler - he will probably try to steal my remote though:rotfl:

Thanks TwinnyD! I do hope she'll show up sooner rather than later!

I'm afraid most it will end up gathering dust and I will just feel guilty for spending money on it, because is SO EASY to have good intentions of exercising in some undefined future knowing full well I cannot start right now:o

I think there are lots of good reasons to go for it...

It will make exercise very easy
Exercise makes you feel good about yourself
It means you can exercise in a fun way with your toddler = quality time
You're buying it with vouchers (minimal risk)

The only downside is you may not use it, and in hindsight you could have bought something else with the vouchers.

Looks to me like the potential benefits out way the potential downside

I'm convinced

Still no sign of a baby....

My mum and my 2yr old were planting like mad this week. Well, she planted, he made sure he got as dirty as humanly possible:rotfl:
and he broke 2 lilies that just managed to get off the ground:(
But he had loads of fun going around with his little yellow shovel and I just couldn't help but smile seeing him so engaged and happy!
I got around 200 bulbs more in my garden now:T
Tomorrow they are doing hanging baskets:D They are great team.

I'm on a sofa complaining to anybody who would listen (not many left:rotfl:) that I WANT THIS BABY OUT ALREADY!!!

Not very MSE either, we ordered new curtains for our bedroom, I budgeted £100, but have not thought I need new pole, tension rod, voil, etc, still it come around £150 as I bought ready made and there was a 30% sale. Now just a lick of paint to coordinate the room (chimney as a feature wall only, so around £15 I think?) and my bedroom will be finally finished. It was done 3 years ago and we hated the colors ever since, they come out dirty and bland instead of mochha it was supposed to be. Now the color scheme is going to be Champagne & Chocolate, with deep, bright orange accents. 2 weeks waiting for the curtains maximum. Hopefully they arrive sooner, I can't wait!
