    Yayy Dragon well done!.

    I'm so happy to see everyone back again. I had total withdrawal symptoms.

    Welcome back suggs and grannynise - I'm glad you both enjoyed your breaks away (even if you didn't bring us back any lovely treats - Oh well)

    Swap boxes tomorrow, yay I can finally bring my box out of hiding (easy ajax) lol.
    Goal for 09: Get fit and foxy. target weight 11st. 5/80.
    Get out of dead end job and work for career I always wanted.
  • i have a confession to make BB . . .

    I have a degree in media.

    oh the shame. I should have been doing plumbing! It is half media and half english. And totally irrelevent now, but i suppose thats true of many degrees. I can cut and splice audio tape with the best of them but everyone uses digital now. and I know how to develop old fashioned camera film that noone uses now either. I only graduated in 2000 and my degree is obsolete!

    Feeling better now as have been sorting out my website for christmas and have taken delivery of my christmas chocs which look so purty and i have orders for them already. Feeling v virtuous as i have a roast chicken in the oven and have been chopping up choc coated apricots for samples and did not succumb. Well only a teeny bit. Half a one? probably only 2 syns anyway. So go me. Also had a good yell at OH for never doing any housework and he is tidying up his office as we speak. So a much happier KPC now.

    By my reckoning about half of the boxes are unaccounted for - fingers crossed that they arrive in time or arrived ages ago and i haven't spotted the response from the recipient. Looking forward to reading people's responses on here and finding out how good we all are at MSEing!

    BB sympathy back atcha for your shouty customer. Sometimes you just have to take it. But 'well done' on developing a back complaint as a result of your weight loss. If you know what i mean. Lots of positive vibes on here, I've been buoyed up all day by it.

    Granny, was it florence you went to? it sounds fantastic. it's on my wish list, and i am 30 in 2009 so i shall start dropping hints to oh now.

    So feeling a weebly bb at the mo. All hugs gratefully received :o
    bb

    Sending you the biggest hug in my armoury BB! Sounds like you've had a rotten day and deserve a feet-up kind of evening (perhaps Mr BB can even give you a foot massage?)

    Keep smiling xx

    KPC, glad to hear you're feeling happier - I wrote a v snotty letter to Virgin this morning, that cheered me up enormously!:D

    I love it when people let on about their age etc - I spend the whole time thinking that everyone is much older (and by that I mean in the 'wise' sense) than me - guess it's just that I'm incredibly immature, lol! :rotfl:

    May be giving the WL a break for a while (for health reasons) - need to think about it a bit more first - but if I do decide to, I'll still be logging on for all the banter! So keep the smut coming!

    Glad to see everyone back, I have missed you all! xx

    Oh no!!!:o:o:o:D

    Glad your day has perked up a bit.
    I'd like to report a 0.5lb loss this week.:j

    Are you thinking of taking a WL break because you've got a lot else on your plate to be dealing with bails and one more thing is doing your head in? Whatever, jolly well hopeyou do stick around with us :beer:
    I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once

    Yay we're back, only found out about 30 mins ago :confused:

    ...Well done efrieze, delly, starlight, vickyj, newlywed, dragon and Brightonbelle good to see some great losses :j :j ...

    ...katiepc not-tagged-smiley-14571.gif I feel dreadfully sorry for you and I hope that things pick up for you soon, weight loss is the last thing to be worrying about. Try and stay positive ;) ...

    ...Brightonbelle Huge ((((hugs)))) How strange that back pain could be caused by losing weight, never thought about it that way before though. I hope that you start to feel better soon:j ...

    ...Bails Can you elaborate about having to give up WL? Ignore me if I'm being nosey, but I hope that you're okay too....

    xxxx
    I wish that I could be the oldest AND wisest....sadly it's not the latter :p but my time will come _party_ wooooh hoooh! Beware!!!!!!!

    Weight loss since 01/08/07 - 72 lbs:j
  • Sorry for the late update.

    I got my swap box. To my shame I was totally disorganised with mine for various reasons & went to post it on Friday & realised I didnt have the recipients address. Couldnt get it til last night :( I did however send it by Special Delivery today so it should be there by 11am tomorrow... story of my life running at the last minute

    I forgot to put a note in with it which I only discovered when I came home and found the card lying in the kitchen!!!!

    So Ill PM the person I sent to and mark the PMs not to be opened til the box is lol

    Gawd Im rubbish at things :(
