Done very little. I have spent most of the day playing with the baby, and looking through my old weight watchers books. I've ate really well and been good. and now feel better. Have just eaten dinner by myself as DH is working. I think i may make an attempt at doing some of the kitchen seems though there is nothing on the TV and i don't know when he'll be in.

Or, i could carry on looking through the diet books and plan my meals for the week.

Who knows

Well I have achieved so much today (actually started a bit last night) although I haven't completed all the list. Seem to have got myself in a bit of a cleaning frenzy and noticing bits that need doing that would never have occurred to me before - like the little vents at the side of the microwave: so grubby! I attacked them with a cotton wool bud and felt very proud when all the grime had been wiped away. Took me about 20 minutes though!
