Yes I follow the body coach, I have weights and a cross trainer and know exactly what I need to do, I just get bored! I'm thinking of going to a crossfit class so we'll see where that takes me!

I picked up some flowers reduced for my friends birthday tomorrow, they look fresher than the ones still in date:o made a cake for her too.

Dreading fat club tomorrow as I've ransacked the kitchen several times this week but hey ho thats how it goes some times!

Money for the rest of the month was looking ok considering it's half term..... the i realised after school clubs and music lesson invoices will be due on the 23rd too :eek: 1 step forward 3 steps back and all

not alot to write home about today really. Such an exciting life we lead in the house of Hinge :rotfl::rotfl:

Hey Mary, I've had s week of shovelling food in! Hitting a new gym today so we'll see how that goes. And poor you having all the afterschool clubs to pay for, I'm putting off paying mine! I hope you have a good day.

A lb gain at fat club today :eek: wasn't unexpected.... it happens when you eat chocolate for breakfast. Bloody stoooooopid hormones.

Lovely day today celebrating my friends birthday, used a 20% code and saved a fortune at the resturant :j:j

Need to sit down a work out Mr H's bills as some of them have increased, will need to rejig the pet insurances and look at his CC apr/balance transfers etc.... Taken my eye off the ball on that one!

Missy H is enjoying a pj day as she has finished for half term :T The boys went off to school rather disgruntled as they wanted to be home today too :rotfl:

I have had a look in the cupboards and freezer and managed to make a meal plan for the next week, have to nip out for the handful of things we will need but should be minimal spends. Had to reserved a new hand blender at argos as I've blown mine up thankfully it's in the sale and less than a tenner!

I have butternut squash, red pepper and tomato soup bubbling away, using up and making do!

Ironing monster has re-appeared so I'm sure that will have to be takcled at some point too :cool:

How is everyone else doing?

Hello MrsH, meal plan and soup sounds good. Had one of "those" weeks at MM towers, fell spectacularly from my electric bike on Sunday, no one else involved and really cross with myself, hit the deck/kerb really hard and fell on my left side and shoulder. OH and I decided that nothing broken, but all colours of the rainbow and been in a lot of pain:D.Not been dressesed all week as too painful. Then 3 visits to the vet for dear dog, poorly with an infection in leg, seems she was probably bitten by a cat that has the nerve to visit our garden. She is not a cat chaser as we trained her not to be, but the pigeons and cats do get chased out. She is on the mend now. OH has been a star looking after us both.:D

Ouch! Maddiemay I'm so pleased you're ok but really feel for you. Hope you are not in too much pain..... Glad to hear OH is taking good care of you.

please-let-me-be-lucky

A pound isn't too bad in the grand scheme of what you've lost overall and what you've been dealing with!

Maddie that sounds awful, hope you feel better soon Xx

Lazy day today, boys have had free access to the ps4 and we watched a movie this afternoon. Missy H is out with a friend too so all quiet on the western front! I've had time to do some christmas knitting

Ironing mountain has been demolished and we have a belly full of roast beef Dinner, Superman mixed the yorkie pudding batter and they were monsters!

A trip out is instore for tomorrow - tesco vouchers will cover the cost and we have plenty in stores for packed lunches and picnics this week!

NSD today as I'm still in my pjs :cool: And have no desire to go out now! bubble bath runnwith my name all over it!

Hope you've all had a lovely relaxing weekend..... Bring on half term!

Half term has flown by the usual saturday hobbies will eat in to tomorrow then Sunday will be the return to school prep and pack up baking :cool: Where has the time gone?

Yesterday Master H and Superman had a visit to the barbers whilst Missy H is on scout camping enjoying the rain :eek: I'm hoping she is warm enough at least

Lots of imagination needed this coming week with food as we have £35 to get us through once all the bills and DD are paid. the freezer is full and the cupboards are ok so there will be food to eat just not everyones "first choice". will need fresh stuff - bread, ham,milk, fruit.... and cat food. I will make missy h plenty of snacks as that frees up a big chunk of money on the free from buys. I have soup to make too - sw speedy tomato and some leek and tattie for missy H - will hunt out her food flask for next weeks pack.

Christmas crafting continues, need to crack on with everyones woolies for winter mind as the wind is horrendous and master H and superman have sensitive ears!

Recieved our garden bin invoice yesterday, the new system means we now pay 6monthly not yearly so its cheaper then last year but i need to remember to budget for it again in april! :cool:
