Just sending love and a tiny annoying reminder your feelings are valid. (and they aren't a whingefest) 
Love Buffy XX

Yes I hope you hear back soon re the testing. 

Glad that the dog is ok. X

apparently there is no need for testing and no excuse to hide away. I have mixed feelings.

today I am grateful for 
recognising the sound of the window cleaner’s ladders and being able to exit the bedroom with dignity intact

'Work opportunities' sounds positive.

Hello, I’ve just been visiting SSG’s page where there has been a lively discussion around weight loss.  Next Saturday dh and I are starting the blood sugar diet again.  I am regularly annoyed at being 2lbs within reach of overweight as opposed to obese and stalling.  Even if I do half as well as last time, it will break a stone barrier and get me established as overweight.  Am I the only one who wasted teenage years bemoaning being a size 12 and not a size 10?

I have decided that I am fed up with my life and the only way to change it is to get off my a$$ and do something about it.  Can people please remind me not to settle? I’m fed up limiting myself with my weight. I’m fed up driving a dirty car because I can’t be bothered to hoover it.  Yesterday I deliberately didn’t change bedclothes as the bedroom is too cluttered so I’m stripping the bed and then sorting out the room before making the bed up with the new bed linen that I have had unused for more than a year.  Really? What kind of a muppet am I?

yesterday I did some admin including paying myself.  DH got a backdated pay increase at the end of July.  So far, we have purchased new plates that are still to arrive. Yesterday I bought / ordered a new floor lamp for ds’s room, new sheets and pillowcases, a new omelette pan and a new steamer as my last was misappropriated by a friend.  All items were on sale and all came with cash back. I also found a list making book that I had bought for the standby present box.  I started using it last night to create today’s roadmap.  I just need to get on with the execution.

today I am grateful for 
a lightbulb moment
an informed plan
a below £60k mortgage

In last year's heat wave my friend and her partner moved to a new flat - top floor of a 5 storey building. It was BOILING hot in there all the time and during the heat wave it was hotter than hell. 
Her partner went to work leaving her in bed as she was on holiday, he did open the curtains to help wake her up.... She never dreamed for a second the window cleaner would come up so high but he did. She was woken up by his squigey making that distinctive noise. She was laying naked in bed with the sheet covering her shoulder (cos that needed covering up!) and everything else on display. In her haste to leave she fell over the sheet and fell between the bed and the wall and remained there until the window cleaner left..........She never knew if he saw her or how long he had been there.........

😂😂😂I bet window cleaners could tell a tale or too 😂😂
You did so well when you followed the low sugar diet previously INOD. It must be hard to follow though.
I think sometimes we get so tied up in work and worries that it’s just easier to drift along and not make the effort to do the things that we know will make us feel better. Go for it - you’ve done it before and will do it again 👍
