Afternoon all
.
Well, quick as a flash, half term is over. Neither boy was particularly happy about going back this morning. DS1 was sleep walking last night which he normally only does if he’s stressed. GCSE option form was handed in this morning, so there’s no going back on his choices now!
Dropped DS1 off at a party yesterday in the Metro Centre, so had a look for a bra while I was there but no luck. Will have to go into town I think

Well done on the win, first of many hopefully :jI get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)0 -
Well I’ve emotionally eaten my way through a million calories the last couple of days. I don’t know why I always turn to food, I was doing so well too :mad:. Whatever the scales say on Friday, I can’t change it so will just have to try to get back on track.
DH has had an ultrasound scan today as he found a lump. The sonographer said the results will be sent to his doc but told him not to worry. Taking this as a good sign, fingers crossed.
Our twins would have been 5 today.
In better news, I have not one but TWO new bras. I got them fitted properly and they are 2 (:eek:) cup sizes bigger than I thought I wasDebts @ LBM £23,729.31. Debts @ 08/04/2016 £0 :j
