Hi :wave:
I'm feeling a bit better now but feeling a bit fed up with my kneeIt sends the whole blog post as an e-mail. I subscribed at the start and got one e-mailed then didn't get one for a few weeks but now I get all of them. It's nice because I'd never keep up otherwise! I also get a beauty blog e-mailed daily so I can read about things I can't afford!I'm sure most of us 'worriers' feel exactly like this. We're not even TTC yet and I've been worrying about it for years! Even before I knew I had medical complications I was worried. I think it's because you spend so long worrying about getting pregnant accidentally, that you can't believe it will actually happen when you want it too!Will you reassure me when we start trying next year? I'm going to be a nervous wreck :rotfl:Hope this week isn't too bad, I've got two parents evenings, a halloween disco and an INSET day - the joys of working in a primary schoolBe who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

2 days to go til half term :j :j
Work is manically busy - no slowing down here - so I'll be so glad when it's finally the weekend.
It's been a NSD for me today - took some homemade soup followed by homemade tea loaf for afters
I'm trying to learn this on the piano at the moment - love this piece so much.
Short and sweet today - off to bedBe who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

I'm so so so glad it's finally the holidays. I'm absolutely shattered and feel wiped out from this last week. I'm looking forward to not doing much in the next week
I've posted a recipe today on my blog about the tea loaf I've made this week which I'm currently eating a slice of with a cuppa whilst watching would I lie to you
Happy weekend allBe who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

What a lovely tune, happy holiday :j0 -
So, half term is over. How fast does a week go when you're out and about, enjoying the weather, and having some relaxation time?
I've had a really good week. Me and DH had a couple of days away as he's managed to be off this week too, which was lovely. We went up to the Lake District and had a couple of walks with the sun shining down on us. It was lovely
I've been trying to learn this on the piano this week - I could play this when I was at uni a few years ago, but have forgotten how to play it! It's fast when it's played at the correct speed but I love it
Going to go and mentally prepare myself for tomorrow....Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

So, after paying £400 last week to get our car through it's MOT, we've had to pay out a further £200 today :wall: :wall: thank goodness the rest of the time our car is relatively cheap to run! We're going to have to try and have a lean budget for the rest of November, which is hard as we haven't started Christmas shopping yet either.
After picking the car up, I treated myself to a large Co$ta hot chocolate, as I needed itI have no excuse really, apart from it's that time of the month and we've failed in ttc for the fourth cycle
but probably shouldn't have had it. It was yummy though
Page views on my blog are really poor today - no idea what's wrong with Thursdays? In general it's plodding along nicelyI need to finish a post that'll be up tomorrow. Is there anything that anyone wants to see specifically on there? I'd love some suggestions if anyone's got a free moment
I'm so glad tomorrow's Friday - bring on the weekend.Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

I've been to Leeds today to meet up with some friends from uni and what a lovely day I've had
we had a good catch up, had some yummy food and had a wander around the shops
didn't really buy that much, so not much further with Christmas shopping, but a really lovely day which I really needed. I just wish we didn't all live so far away from each other.
I'm going to do my first ever roast chicken in this house tomorrow - don't know why I'm nervous about it? I've then got lots of meals planned this week using the leftoversgoing to make a stock in the SC with the bones too, so nothing goes to waste.
Not much else to report other than that, I'm living for the weekends at the moment.
Happy SaturdayBe who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.
