When I asked for luck I didn't mean the bad variety!!!

Aw shucks you guys what lovely things to say. I'm all embarrassed now!

Confession time, I was a pig yesterday! I ate a load of rubbish including some pizza, a cupcake and a McDonalds :eek:. It's come as a bit of a shock that I went back to my stressed out/comfort eating ways so quickly after being an angel on my diet for 10 weeks I feel carp about it now and I've been very good again today. I really hope it doesn't mean a big gain on tuesday. Going to have to try to be really good for the rest of the week, the only problem could be a meal out on Monday but will be as good as I can then too.

DS2 has finished playgroup for Easter and came out with 3 eggs! Each child got one from the staff, he won another in the raffle and he won their decorate an Easter egg competition!! By the time the Easter Bunny comes on Sunday we will be swamped with chocolate! I've also just paid for playgroup for the last time :j £24 per week better off now

DS1 finishes school at 3pm and then we need to collect DH's prescription and then I've promised DS1 we can call over to the MetroCentre as he has some cash burning a hole in his pocket and the game he wants is allegedly on sale in G@me. DH is feeling quite well (if a little slow to take in and compute info) so it will hopefully be a nice little trip out.

Sounds smashing, have a great time at the Centre of Metro.

Last time I went outside the cinema there it was almost like a knocking shop outside, girls wearing very little clothing but making it for it in orange self tan. It was an eye opener! And young boys with their jeans barely making it over their backsides.

As my granny would have said, eeeh they looked a right clip!

please-let-me-be-lucky

Lol SBO, my Grandma says the same thing!!

"Look at the clip of her"
"Eee she looks a right clip"
"What a clip!"

I've always just accepted this but now I've got to thinking, what the heck actually is a 'clip'??? :rotfl:

Hope you have had a good day.

Clip means state but why I'm not sure.

Had a lovely time tonight. DS1 got his game and DS2 got a Thor costume with his Easter money from Grandma. He looks so cute! He's well into his superhero costumes but he looks amazing in this one, quite the part with his blonde curls DH got a bit snappy a couple of times but he pulled it back when I pointed it out to him so we still managed a good evening together.

DS1 brought £12 back from school today. They decided I didn't need to pay for his milk anymore with him being on free school meals.

I think you might be the nicest person I know! I love hearing stories about people who take the time for their older neighbours. :A It's something else though with everything else you've got going on.

After your horrendous couple of days it sounds like things are really picking up again. Don't dwell on the comfort eating, we've all done it, just get back on the horse and concentrate on feeling fab. Your little family sound all set for a really lovely Easter (DS2 with all the eggs and a super hero costume may be the most set. ) xx

Today started out sunny and bright so we decided to go to a local woodland/park area, but just as we were ready to leave it started snowing! Not particularly heavy but we thought we'd wait a little while to see if it would stop, but meanwhile DH's best friend landed so we stayed in for a couple of hours chatting to him. He and the other lads were laid off work yesterday but he thinks he might have something lined up to go to. He will struggle for money though if he has to work a fortnight 'lying on', so I've suggested we put some stuff of his on eb@y as he doesn't have his own account. It's free listing from now until Easter Monday. When he left we decided to have lunch and then go to the woodland but after lunch it snowed again! At that point DS1's friend knocked and asked if he could come in to play so we settled for a NSD in the house!

I've spent the afternoon sorting through drawers, wardrobes and my bedroom in general in the hope of starting the decorating imminently. I've also finished the James Cracknell book which I got a lot out of. It made what we are going through feel 'normal'.

DH seems a little worse today in terms of memory and confidence so to be honest I'm pleased we are staying in.

Hope everyone is enjoying their Good Friday Xx
