Afternoon all, I've just munched my LO pizza, chips and garlic dough balls, pretty yummy for being microwaved after being frozen the other day.

Wowsers I'm in foul mood today - I didn't start in it... Got a naffola bit of news today (but in truth, not horrendous) and I seem to have used it as an excuse to have the grumps! And everything else seems to be going really smoothly - just scrapped the money together to pay for the new car we put the deposit down on on Saturday, no flaps about money, I've been under TONNES more pressure for a year or so right up to becoming debt free last month... I honestly have no real reason to have the grumps but OMG, they've hit me this afternoon!!

Hi All.

Shortie- i am in a right grump today too. stupid hormones in my case (TMI).
Will update you now

I hit my target today :j :j Will exceed it too, as i am working every day this week, plus Monday and Friday next week to

Anyone else need updating?

WTBSE, that was exactly the kind of grumps I had earlier for a couple of hours, maybe sane reason here (but no clue for reasons, still get the blooming hormones, TMI here too sorry everyone! xx)

I've now degrumped and am looking forward to getting home, donning my fluffy onesie, eating hm lasagne with hm chips, and wrapping some Chrimbo pressies to a cookery program or two

Day 10 and 11 completed

I am taking mini cocktail sausages and coleslaw tomorrow and chicken soup as well as I am on 12 hour shift.

It must be in the air as I have felt down the last 2 days. I hope you both feel more yourself soon x

Hello, I am on day 10 I think. I have been AWOL for a bit as I had two days of work last week, We went out on one day and had Scone with a cuppa in a garden centre. Well... It was the size of a dinner plate with loads of cream and Jam. We both ate them and felt sick!!! Hence we had our sandwiches for tea instead of a cooked meal.

I had a plain cheese sandwich today and it was lovely! The blinking buffet I'd still there though... And new things are added every day... Today I succumbed to the Pringles.

Soworried and DC, have updated you both

I am feeling a bit better this evening. I went to work and a client didnt turn up when they should, which set me behind time. Then i went and had a really miserable few hours with my friend talking about stuff (it was lovely to see her, but it was hard work), then i cam home and made a cup of tea and spilt it over myself, then my client phoned and moaned at me Then my 14 year old gave me a hard time about what an awful parent i am because i SUCK! Oh the joys!

But, the day is almost over...tomorrow is another day. I cannot wait until pay day on Friday, it'll make all these extra hours worth it!

Morning all

Ham salad pitta breads for me today. I'll be taking some granola bars and a few pieces of fruit too.

Have a great day everyone!

Hi everyone, well 'the grumps' were definitely in the air yesterday as I caught them too! Was in a foul mood and no internet access at home all day didn't help. I completed day 10 having a few mini sausage rolls, quiche and chicken satay with salad. All leftovers brought home from a get together at my friends on Sunday night. She was going to bin it, silly woman!!

Day 11 today and chicken salad pitta with yoghurt and fruit is on the menu. Foul mood still lingering but I know what's causing it and what I need to do - all very cryptic but too long a saga to post and I don't want to bore you all to tears

Happy lunching (and munching) everyone x
