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

I had a £10 M&S giftcard ... and a £10 voucher. I was saving them to [STRIKE]buy a Christmas gift for someone[/STRIKE] spend on myself when I need cheering up

Sorted! :D
Don't dare feel guilty!! You have a heart of gold lucky. One of the biggest hearts I know of. You would do without and spend your last ££ on someone else. Hold your head high! I bet the top looks fab on you too!

Enjoy the peace and quiet. It's only temporary! :eek::D

I would say the tiredness probably is affecting how you feel in general. Hard to figure out the actual emotions when your body has gone haywire. Concentrate on getting your health back, inc your iron, and hopefully all else will fall into place.

^^ I second the above re tiredness and mood. It took me ages to recover from my MC of multiple birth, which sadly like yours came on the back of a previous MC. It's easy to forget how much having babies takes out of us emotionally and physically, without having gone through what you have. When you have a baby to run around after, you blame the tiredness etc on not getting enough sleep due to feeds etc. when you haven't got that excuse, you expect your body to recover quicker. Honestly my dear, it really is early days yet

Thank you both for your lovely kind words. I'm having one of my [STRIKE]less insane[/STRIKE] more balanced moments and I can see you are both right. I am off to bed in the next few minutes in the hope of catching up on some extra sleep and feeling brighter tomorrow.

Lost a pound and a half at fat club tonight. Was hoping for more but it will do!

DS1 had a good first day back apart from the lunch! He was last in and all they had left was tuna sandwiches. He hates tuna so ended up with just a scoop of mashed potato :eek: If I paid for the lunch I'd complain!!!

Hope you have a better day tomorrow, it will take some time and you will have down days, don't be so hard on yourself, come and talk to us.

Hope DS has a better lunch at school tomorrow.x

Yay on the 1.5lbs. I'm tomorrow night and am not sure how it will go

Glad you've finally seen sense! And of course we were right! :rotfl:

:j to the 1.5lbs!!

Glad DS1 got on ok, aside from the lunch. Girls were away last night so will hear from DD1 and 3 how their first days went

Busy busy busy today!! Good job I woke up feeling like I had a bit more energy of late .

DS2 had his first [STRIKE]day[/STRIKE] hour at nursery and loved it. He looked soooooo cute in his little uniform!! He's looking forward to going back tomorrow so a job well done.

DH's friend dropped in unexpectedly for coffee mid morning but that was good, though we had to throw him out when MIL arrived to take DH (and DS2) for his dentist appointment. I also had to leave then to get my hair cut.

I'm now a redhead again :j. I absolutely love it and it has really cheered me up. I feel miles better and it looks natural because it's my original colour. If I talk about going blonde again shoot me!! A brilliantly timed 'happy birthday, here's £5 off your next haircut' email arrived this morning too, so I printed that out and took it with me. It still cost £60 though :eek::eek:.

Afterwards I did a bit of shopping in town (my sister's partner's birthday is the same day as mine so I needed a gift) and I realised that I had forgotten to take the mince out of the freezer for tea so I popped in to the mini Mr T's in town to buy some. I had a £2.38 price promise voucher for there so that helped.

After collecting DH and the boys from MIL, I then went home to make the bolognaise for tea and my sister came over which was a pleasure as always. The kids went to play in next door's garden and on the path between them and us found £2.10!! Not mine, sister's or neighbour's so duly pocketed!

DH is VERY forgetful today. Amongst other things he asked me who had used the extra coffee cup waiting to be washed on the side, and had no recollection of his friend popping in earlier . Will need to keep an eye on that.

Hi Lucky - things are sounding more upbeat at long last, although hope DH is ok. Glad you bought yourself that top you deserve it to say the least. Sound like your birthday is coming up soon so Happy Birthday from me and hope you are spoiled rotten for just one day at least.

please-let-me-be-lucky

Thank you SA! My birthday is a week today, the dreaded September 11th Xx

I hope it was just a blip with DH and he will be ok

:j to the new top (You most definitely do deserve it) :j to the new haircut too (You are most definitely worth it ) :T it sounds lovely and just the sort of pampering you need to pick up your spirit. I had forgotten that you were a veggie until robin pointed it out so please do get gp to check whatever she said (:o am also forgetful) did you look into the spatone, i take it every day and it works soo quickly compared to the usual iron tablets. I hope tomorrow is a good day
