Hi, this is the Daily Thread forThursday 26 April 2007. This is an “over the garden fence” type thread where we chat about everything OS and maybe a little bit more. It’s a great, inspiring and motivating thread we start each day to discuss what we’re going to do today or what we’ve achieved already. Everyone’s welcome, please do come in, put your feet up (although check the fence hasn’t just been painted first!) and join us for an OS natter. The more the merrier!

When you make a post, if you feel like giving it a title, that will help others that don’t have the time to read everything skim through the thread quickly but if not it's not a problem, we’re a laid back bunch here so you won’t hear any complaints. Please do not start a new daily thread before you go to bed at night because this often leaves things confusing with two daily threads live at the same time. The idea is that a member would start each new daily thread after they get up in the morning

Some people who chat here like to try to answer everyone. Don’t feel you have to though, a general “hi everyone, hope everyone’s well” type start does just as well.


everyone, I hope you have a good day today.

I have yet again been to bed at 10pm after my early start at 5am this morning and woke up at 2.40 am - wide awake. :eek: :eek: :eek: I am now thinking that these disturbed nights are down to my sleep pattern being disturbed by these early starts and the worry of oversleeping. Oh!! BTW I forget who, but a tired smilie was asked for ...... I found one - all you fellow insomniacs feel free to right click and copy at your lesuire. :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

I have to admit as I have done to AMIE that my new digital scales have put me at half a stone heavier than the other ones (should I really be surprised when they fluctuated depending on where I weighed myself!!!) and I have been really upset. Working out the difference I have lost 1 lb, this last week but I still can not come to terms with the fact I weigh just short of 17 stone. Before my sterilisation failed and LO came along I lost 5 stone with WW's, pregnancy is a bu**er with me and I am mortified at my weight at the moment. I have lost the will to live with updating my sig. as I have never been this heavy in all my life.:rolleyes:

Today I intend to top to toe hoover, everywhere is tidy, and clean the nets in the lounge after work. Also my wages have come in and this time there is no compassionate leave for the time I took off when OH was in CCU, so I need to rejig the budget. Lunch today will be baked pots with salad and Liver and oninons for tea with swede and spuds.

to everyone who needs one today,

I hope you all have a good day.



Oh! and shez...................

I hope you have a really great day!. xxx

Hi Smoky and Mrs mix and all who follow. Hope you both (and me and all other insomniacs) manage to catch up on some sleep. I went to bed quite late because DH worked till 9.00 p.m. last night so a late dinner, late clearing up etc. and I still woke up early this morning!:eek: :eek: I don't understand that!Thanks for the smiley Smoky - I'm sure a lot of us will appreciate it! Just tried to paste it and couldn't - must have done something wrong; will try again later. I'm so sorry you're feeling low about your weight - I know there are others on the thread with the same worry so maybe a problem shared is a problem halved. :A :A

Mrs Mix - I hope DS2 has not broken anything - that must've been pretty scary, falling off a ladder:eek: :eek:

PennyPincher - hope you and your nephew had a wonderful evening - let's hope it soon becomes every evening. Have been thinking about it a lot especially when I spoke to my DGS on the phone yesterday afternoon and he sounded full of laughter. You know we're all thinking about your little him.:A :A

Well - must go now. Already had my first cuppa, going to have a shower and put the WM on - weather seems more promising than yesterday when it was cool and grey. DGD coming for lunch afte pre-school so that will be a very girlie session. She's four going on twenty-four and into anything pink and princessy! Then, after her visit and I've cleared up all the dressing-up stuff, I'm going to FINISH my mountain of paperwork!

Catch you all later and have a brilliant day! Good morning to anyone who posts the same time as me!:grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug:

Hi Amie - have a great day and spread the OS message!

Morning peeps:hello:

it's cold here this morning and we have had some rain overnight! I felt sick last night and went to bed early then woke up at 3am soaked in sweat but I feel fine this morning Must have been summat I ate!
I have a mountain of ironing that needs doing so I think I will do that tonight after work. Kitten had her jab last night and vet said she was a healthy little think only weighing 0.8kg:eek: :eek:
Dinner tonight will be fishcakes with salad and new potatoes. I have enough food in the house to feed an army.
Hope everyone is well.

Good morning everyone,

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY SHEZ - hope you have a lovely day xxx

Well, cant tell if its going to rain or not today - so not sure if i should wash the kids bedding or not. DS will be alright, as i have spare, but although i do have spare for DD, its old and has princesses on it, and she is now into Bratz, so i really need to get it washed and dried the same day - its her birthday tomorrow (cant believe where the last 9 years have gone!!!) and really want her to sleep in her own bed tonight (if her bedding isnt on, she will jump at the chance at sleeping in my bed, and then i will get even less sleep than i normally do!!!). Ive also got to take the car this morning, as im off to collect her a 'fancy' balloon for her birthday - its the type which you have a toy and smaller balloons put inside it, and after a few weeks you have to try and pop it to get the bits out!!! Luckily LO is at nursery this morning, so i can get the last couple of bits done while she is there.
Nothing much else planned for today - prob a bit more cleaning, and i still havnt made that vegetable soup, so that might be on the cards today - im also trying to loose a little weight, and at the moment at lunch time i tend to stuff myself with anything, so could do with having the soup to stop me searching the cupboards for junk!!!
Right, off for my cuppa,
Have a lovely day everyone, ((HUGS)) to anyone who would like or needs one.
Take care xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Morning :wave:

Quite bright here today, so might peg some washing out, so if it rains you know who to blame :rotfl:

Soaked a gammon joint overnight, so will put into the slow cooker and have it with beans and oven chips for tea.

I was given some raspberry canes yesterday, so will get them planted, and plant some more seeds. I also want to do some decluttering and list some things on Ebay.

:grouphug: to anyone who needs one x

Good, morning to you all, but it's not a good start here. DH has been down to feed the hens, and they're all gone, spare a few feathers. Looks like we've had a fox. Never seen one before here, as we're in the centre of town, and *town foxes* haven't reached here...........until now. I'm very upset, and have had some tears. Don't know what the Small Penguins will say.

Was supposed to be such a good day, too. I'm off to Thirsk to collect some hatching eggs, so will be asking for 12 rather than the 6 that I've ordered.

Happy Anniversary to Mr & Mrs Shez.

Morning

Sorry, but I don't have time this morning to read through, but hello to everyone who has already posted and to those yet to post

Spending most of today with a friend and I'm really looking forward to seeing her, she is someone whos company I really enjoy and I always end up feeling good about myself and the world after seeing her.

Collected the bed from freecycler lastnight for DD. Hopefully I wont be here later telling you all that I have been as lazy over putting them up as I was over the boys beds - DH is home all day and said he will do it :T
Have a good day, everyone - hugs to those who need/want them.
