thanks girls, I had kind of thought that myself re internet guy. He was no oil painting himself anyway
Another day of feeling like pooh. I have been to loo at least 30 times!! Total nightmare. Mind totally wandered and thankfully in work my team are keeping an eye on me and telling me when I make mistakes. Normally I am right on the ball but OOFT this week I have been right off track. We are laughing at it but very annoying. Was in bed at 9.30 last night and sleeping before 10. Will be pretty much the same tonight as I am gubbed ( technical MIT term for very very tired)
Only spent £3 today which was for a collection in work. Our wee apprentice is finishing up tomorrow so we want to get him a nice wee send off.
Dunno if I mentioned that there is a promotion board in my work just now. I brought forms home but tbh I just cannot get the energy to look at them and maybe not the best time to be looking at a differnet job just now when I need to sort my health out. I cannot wait for a wee miracle when I get the stone removed. One good thing though is that my scales at home have dropped a few pounds this week so fingers crossed they will do the same when I get weighed next week.
I hope you guys are all well. Ali you are right re budget. I'm doing my best. Rarely do we wast anything so at least I'm not wasting food/money. I no longer buy sweets/cakes/biscuits/chocolate/fizzy juice so I hate to think what I ould spend now if I still bought all that. I dread to think :eek:. So I will keep plodding. DS has now finished up with school for the summer so £40 per week better off for 7 weeks. I'm going to put it away though if I can and that'll cover the uniform for his return.

Hi guys. I feel so much better but things with the kidney must be getting bad. Not going to go into details but I have lost 10lbs since Tuesday just through loss of fluid which I had obviously been retaining :eek:. I hope it stays off and I'll have a super duper weight loss next week
Working week is over but working tomorrow morning and will get £22.50 for that. Also working Sunday afternoon for 4 hours and will get £50 for that. That gets me back on track a bit. As I said yesterday I have £40 per week now that I didn't have with DS bus fares. I 'll have that for next 7 weeks so I will definitely try and put it away as DS informs me he has a trip when he goes back which will be £250. His uniform will also cost me at least £150 so the £280 from bus fare savings will not even cover these costs. Never mind, at least it helps.
Spent £2.10 on baked potato and beans in work today. No other spends.
Going to a MacMillan tea party tomorrow with cocktails being served rather than tea. I will however take the car as I don't think my poor wee kidney would cope with any alcohol this week.
So busy day tomorrow and also on Sunday. Can't wait until next Friday to stop work for another 2 weeks:eek:. House will get gutted and some nice quality time with DS. Going to go through to Edinburgh for the day and head to the Scotland Museum and DS is desperate to see the Parliament buildings so I will try and sort that out for him. Lots to look forward to

Oh dear MIT - when are they going to take the stone out. Don't like hearing that you are suffering so much with it. Must be awful.
Even if the weightloss has been a bonus - you don't want to lose it through being poorly. You sound like you are being very good with the diet too.
Your week with DS sounds like it will be a good time spent together.
have a good weekend.0 -

Wave as you drive through the West of the city
Hope you feel better soon ♥0 -
INOD it's tomorrow. No chance of getting it done and TBH my evidence is not so great recently. I kind of took a back seat when Mum got ill and haven't been able to push my way forward since ( haven't tried too hard mind you) but have let my office manager know I want developed so I can go for it next time.
Moomin, I will wave and wave. Please wave back
I forgot to confess to buying 2 pairs of shoes the other day. HOWEVER they were only £9. I have discovered wee cheap canvas shoes in Primark are very comfortable. So I bought a navy blue pair and a nude pair of ballet pumps. I am so happy not to be spending an absolute fortune and getting shoes I can actually wear
Spent £53 in ALDI today but that was £5 off voucher and another £2.50 off with other vouchers. I bought lots of meat though so loads of nice healthy dinners for us. Need to go into ASDA at some time though as need some things from there as well.
Spent £6 today at my wee tea party afternoon. It was really good. I read tarot cards for folks and they paid £3 each so that was great. There was a girl there who reads them properly and she read mine and she got me spot on. She said I keep saying to myself 'what's up with me? I've been good. I live a good life. Why isn't everything coming to me? when is it my turn?' Now my question that I had in my head was 'Is there any romance on the cards for me?' :j:j good news lassies. There is :rotfl:. Not right now but definitely in my future. Wouldn't that be nice
Anyway I'm tired and working tomorrow so heading to bed to dream of my potential man lol5 Year plan. April 2020 to June 2025- CC and mortgage free by time I'm 60
