    Fab news about your grandma. She's a tough one isn't she. You're inspiring me with your NSD, I'm now on 4/8, so thanks for that :)

  • Grandma's party sounds lovely XX


    Hope you are feeling better and you have had a good day, am worried that Dh's anger is a precursor to a seizure.


    Hang in there if so XXXX
    Nevertheless she persisted.
  • Not boring... how many now?!?! :D
    Oh my goodness! Lucky is getting to be such a pro at NSDs. I need to pull my socks up. Hehe

    Sweet dreams

    Thanks all. I'm on 3 NSDs so far in Feb. managed 10 in Jan and was hoping for the same this month, though that might be a little unachievable with only 28 days in the month and half term accounting for a week of them!

    No NSD for me today as DS1 and DH got their hair cut. Glad to be inspiring others to achieve them though! Xx

    Thank you both Xx

    Grandma being home and well is awesome! We had such a good time altogether yesterday, however the yummy food, birthday cake (and the Mums' night out on Friday) have told on me at the scales tonight! 1.5lbs on :o.

    Buffy, you might be right about the seizure build up, however I was thinking it's because he went up to the next dose of his new meds a week ago. When he had been on the initial dose for a week we had some horrible days, so it seems to correspond. Will keep an eye on him though Xx

  • Ah yes more likely to be linked to the meds that's logical.


    I was in my more lucid moments during this migraine thinking how much it changes me, I don't behave at all like myself nor remember much. horrible feeling. And that is just a bloody headache!!


    do take care of you XXX
    Nevertheless she persisted.
  • This morning DH went swimming with Paramedic Mate, and while they were out my bestie came round for a catch up. I told her how I'd been feeling and it really did me some good. Will still make a GP appointment though as she also thinks it's a good idea. Really meant to do it today and am now kicking myself for forgetting.

    Chased Np0wer about the new boiler. They have priced the whole job at £3.5k and are willing to pay £3.2k, so we have to pay the £300 shortfall. I don't think that's bad for a brand new boiler and a fairly big job which involves moving the boiler completely and widening loft hatches etc. They said they would put it all in writing and then we have to say yes or no within 30 days. It will mean that I probably won't clear as much debt over the next few months but it will save us money long term.

    My good deed for the day is only half done :(. I have put together a wee parcel for a special little boy, but missed the post. I shall post it tomorrow but will do another good deed as well.

    Currently watching 'The Secret Life of Four Year olds' on Channel 4. Really interesting! I'd recommend it on plus one!!

  • Knew the blooming twonks at NP0wer would need a boot up the bum. £300 for a new boiler fitted is pretty good but an expense you could have done without hmm? I had to pay over the phone before they would agree to it, so might be worth asking someone for a loan for a few months - MiL maybe?

    Big hugs to you. Methinks the weight is less cake and more to do with stress levels. Drink plenty of water :) xxx

    Just having a look at that Secret Life of 4 Year Olds on plus 1. Interesting stuff - exactly LL's age.. no idea what goes on when he's among his peers but now maybe more so! Some of them seem so much older than 4.. crazy how much they differ at that age.

    The boy who took the chocolate cake first for example? Seemed more like 8!
