  • Thanks guys. Been a busy MIT last few days. Trained and ready for action ha ha . Well I’m as ready as I’ll ever be. 3 hours overtime today so that’s good. I actually worked for about 6 hours but hey ho. Naff all else to do. House is immaculate. Garden is okay lol. I’ve even tidied the loft. 
    I’ve been talking to a guy online for two weeks now and he seems adorable. I just hope he is in real life. I’ve done a bit of internet dating before but met a few warmers. He just seems a lovely genuine guy. We will see.
    i hope you guys are all fab and keeping well xx

  • Ha ha are they ever PLMBL? But yes exciting times indeed. In amongst being scared half to death at times. NSD today 😁. Very very busy day work wise but satisfying. I’m exhausted tonight and it will not take much for me to fall asleep. Watching SAS celebrity and cannot believe Katie Price turned up with eyelashes on. I do like her but she’s such a tw at !! 
    DD’s birthday today. Made a HM birthday cake and got her nice trainers. I’ve ordered her a nice necklace as well but not here yet. The joys of lockdown. I hope everyone is staying safe and well xx

  • Hey MIT!  I remember loving all your diary updates about the kids driving you round the bend, sounded just like a day in my house with 2 teenagers!  Good luck with the diet, my sister and friend both lost 4 and 5 stone each on Cambridge! Also good luck with the old online dating, I met my now husband on Tinder and we have a toddler!

  • Hi guys. A week has passed already. Lucielle I hope you are well xx  reality check, they still drive me mad ha ha 
    So a complete fail last week on food plan but feeling pretty determined today and I have plenty of the food I need in to get me in my way. It’s so hard though in lockdown as all you want to do is eat and drink .
    im still chatting all the time to a lovely man. Reality check I know so many people who have met online and are really happy. This guy actually seems perfect for me . We have the same values and morals. Both like the same things and intelligence wise we really seem to be on a par. He makes me smile and he makes me blush with his lovely compliments. We video chat a couple of times a day now and he’s still keen as mustard. I get quite surprised when guys want to get to know me more as I just reckon being a fat bird no one will be interested. Throwback to ex husband telling me I was a mess no doubt. So I’m quite excited about the future and looking forward to restrictions being lifted so I can see him and get one of the hugs he keeps promising me 😊. 
    On the money saving side. I’ve spent £130 on shopping in the last week but enough meat to do at least 2-3 weeks so that’s good. My son needs to go in to work in Glasgow today so will go to Costco for a few things for me. I’ve demolished my summer house so I’ll need to pay £80 to get the rubble removed and I need to buy a table for the patio I now have. Murder trying to find one that’s available though.

    so working from home again today so I best get on. Take care all xx

  • Jwil he is lovely. Hopefully the chemistry is still there when we meet in person.
