Went shopping, first went to home bargains to see what they had that was cheaper than asda and got very excited as they had stardrops so I bought some. Also got sunpat peanut butter, love peanut butter but don't really like getting the cheap stuff as they fill it with loads of sugar and oil but they had sunpat for 49p! it's still not as good as the wholenut stuff but very tasty and a bargain I thought! Also got a 2 pack of pasta sauce, same ones are £1 at asda at the moment.

Then I went to Asda only to find that they sold stardrops and they're 11p cheaper than at home bargain!! 58p instead of 69p...wasn't happy but grumbled away and carried on with my shopping!

Have some bread rising, haven't baked bread myself since my grandma taught me how to...think I was about 12!!! fingers crossed it's ok, just used the instructions on the yeast...really want a bread maker, wasn't impressed with the mess I made!

Im lucky, my loo is in a seperate room to my bathroom, but i always put the lid down before flushing (and have taught my children to do the same) Very glad i do now!!!!

Good-day everyone:j

Still lovely sunshine here - I am good I did my ironing pile yesterday - only to be followed by another wash load this morning:rotfl:

I cant believe I managed to fit into my shorts (just) so had a sit in the garden and got the usual sun-tanned tops of legs but not the bottoms

Had mum over for dinner yesterday and sent her packing with a coffee and walnut cake and rhubarb crumble (curtesy of my neighbour who gave me some from her allotment):D

Kids are back to school/nursery - just as well as some well needed time away from fighting each other is needed:rolleyes:

Well Done to bargainrzl - :T - I didnt manage to get a bet on but would have picked hedgehunter - so would have lost anyway!

Amie/smokey - Count me in - I will try and lose weight:o PUT THOSE CREME EGGS DOWN AMIE!!!!! - off to find my legwarmers and headband and put on my Jane Fonda workout:rotfl: in true 80s fashion!;)

moggins - Good luck with the new job x
PP - hope you feel better soon, enjoy abit of Fern and Phil TV:D

Also keeping the Lid down is Very "Fung Shui" and is supposed to dis-courage Money leaving the household;)

Hi everyone

Good Luck Moggins, looking forward to hearing how it went
<HUGS> to Caroline, do you know how they got your details????
Haribo, thanks for the emoticons, very cute.

Been to the gym this morning, my leg is complaining quite a lot so I need to see the Doctor to check it's OK. I had a DVT and embollism a few years ago, and the main vein is full of scar tissue so doesn't carry blood anymore. I want to check that the pain I am getting is a GOOD pain rather than a WARNING pain.

DH is working in Oxford this week, which means he's out of the house at 6.15 and not back until 8pm. An excellent opportunity to use some of the spare meals in the freezer for him, and soup for me. I miss having him around.

House is sparkling. Well, -ish. It's tidy and clean anyway. BUt I must do the bathroom. We soaked the bbq grill pans in the bath a couple of nights ago and although I cleaned the bath out thoroughly, I think it needs another go.

Think I'll have a coffee and put my gym stuff in the wash first.

Have a great day everyone

Good afternoon everyone,

Hello Shez - been wondering where you were (ive also heard about 'flushing your wealth down the loo', but not the main reason for me putting the lid down)!!! and welcome back to ageandjo as well, another one ive noticed was missing for a while! - how are your dogs getting on with your new addition???

moggins - Hope the new job has gone well xx

Caroline - hope you get your paypal sorted soon xx

scuzz and loubee - hope you both have a lovely holiday xx

PP - hope you are feeling better this afternoon xx

((HUGS)) to anyone ive missed, or who would like one xxx

Had a lazy morning so far, and im feeling a bit better than i was when i first got up, so now LO has decided to have a sleep (she asked if she could!!) im going to crack on and do something - and not spend the hour on here!!!
Was good this morning tho, we did walk to school, and we will be walking again later - so a bit more exercise for me!!!

Afternoon all

Had a quick peak at the thread this morning but then decided to get on with work!

Being v.v.v.v. good today and have not purchased a coffee from downstairs (though I'm really tempted!).

On a bit of a store-cupboard challenge: last night I used up some TMF gravy, 1 year out of date frozen sausages (they were fine!! ) and some pasta. Bit of ketchup and it was lovely, odd combination...but the food needs to be used up! Lunch today tuna pasta (darn...I can hear the muffins calling me).

Yesterday I spent far too long on MSE printing out lovely recipes to get cooking again. I've found I almost have the ingredients for flap-jacks so going to attempt them tonight. Bit scared as I haven't even cooked desert cake type things, but these just seem to be a melt and mix type of cooking. Good place to start .

Right, had better go back to work. Hello to all newbies and hugs to those who need them, PP and moggins.

Oh and I'm always up for trying to lose weight! I had planned to go for a run this morning at 6am but um my bed wouldn't let me get up (honest). How others get up at 3am I'll never know!
