    I'm about to hop onto the WiiFit and see what light exercise I can manage for 30 mins - if anyone wants to join in for a HHE or HHC of their own, please do.:o

    I shall then find a necklace and wallop on a bit of colour, as we're going into town when Lizzie's been collected; Mr LW needs some new socks and underpants (oh, the glamour of it!):D

    We may even nip to the pub tonight - I owe him a beer for helping me sort out a problem on my laptop that involved editing the Registry - not something to undertake lightly!:A

    Thanks for the lists Natty, I'm in but sticking to my own lists this week.

    Late start for me as my tooth pain got too much so I went to the dental hospital yesterday and had it removed! :eek: After a week of not eating properly, and now the swelling/bruising meaning I won't be eating properly for a couple of days I haven't got the energy to be doing anything more than basics for now.

    FLYLADY ME MOUNTAIN CHALLENGE!

    I'll be looking to join in with this challenge maybe next week when I'm feeling more like myself. ;) I want to improve my health through loosing some weight which for me means upping the exercise! :o

    FizzWhizz - congratulations :D

    DD is back to school on Thursday but there's still things to be done so I need to get them done today. We have the dentist tomorrow (:rotfl::eek::rotfl:) so I want to get stuff done today.

    This afternoon I'm going to finish stitching these belt loops on 1 pair of DD's trousers. She's only in 2 days so as long as 1 pair is wearable ;) We also have laundry to do (DD has already put 1 load in), write newsletters for work, and then sort out what ironing HAS to be done.

    I'm off to do the first of many salt washes then get some soup as I'm feeling hungry. Laters :wave:
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    Oh don't get me started on pushchairs!! I have 3 single ones.. a light stroller, a pliko and my monster bertini then I have 2 doubles.. the nipper 360 side by side and the hauck freerider which was free to test with bizziebaby.. the nipper is mine the hauck is OH's.. mine is too low for him and his is too heavy for me.. We can't streamline yet as still use all 5 just not all at once!

    DW done again so just 3 pans for DD2 to wash.
    all the recycling out in the fruit fly infested bin.
    washing on the line
    cots stripped
    school stuff ready for tomorrow

    I need to trot to shop to get a few bits.. I might take Dot with me actually .. and I need to sort the repair on the dryer.. it is a pain pegging out knickers and socks.

    Small thing fed again.. she has hollow legs I'm sure.

  • Took youngest out for lunch while older two are out with their grandparents. Hubby owed me a McDonald's frappe he bribed me with to get my essay finished lol. He hoovered upstairs while I changed our bed and hoovered the stairs. My cutlery keeps coming out of the dishwasher covered in brown marks which I think is due to the baking trays being rusty and need replacing argh always something need buying

    Key Lime Pie from a Good Food online recipe - I bought a pack of whoopsied Limes and Lemons so made that. (and lemon drizzle cakes with the lemons)

    base was crushed hobnob (well Morries own) and butter, baked for 10 minutes , then condensed milk, egg yolk, lime zest and lime juice beaten together and then baked. Whipped cream top. Was lovely!

    The cobbler was something I have wanted to have a go at for ages - was luscious! I'm still loving my 'new' kitchen - not least because the spilled bramble juice is wiping off without leaving a mess - with my previous kitchen (white cupboards and worktops, scratchen white enamel sink) I used to have to wipe down with neat bleach as it stained!

    DD's at work at 4:30 so I'm going to hit the brambles again. Then I will have jars to gift for Christmas. I've already promised one of the supervisors at Morries a jar! As I type I can hear the pop-up lids popping down!
