hi, sorry haven't been around. OH arrived on Wed evening so i've been offline since then. I've just put him on the train so it's gone downhill now.
I've spent loads this weekend which isn't good, and mostly it's been on craft stuff, i think i failed your 'only buy what you're going in for' lesson. Did get some wonderful things many of which were in the sale.
I've planted a load of veggie and herb seeds in the greenhouse today, and potten on some cabbages.
Let me know what ediets is like, i'm out of ideas, i know i need to stick to a diet and do some exercise but i just can't get it back in my head.0 -
Hi LT, Hugs for you re OH going
Naughty girl re craft stuff but well done for fessing up! I didnt plant owt today but the fire was FUN!!! Mind you the flames shot up at one poin & I was a bit close - reminded me of whn my sister caught her dress alight! What crafty stuff did you get? I'll report back re ediets asap - still waiting the login code! How much do you want to loose? I MUST shuft some - part of the reason I've been feeling rubbish is feeling that the eating has slipped a bit of late & must get on an even keel again but dont want to resort to cambridge diet etc...just not the solution me thinks! Healthy balanced diet with excercise is the way to go but find it hard to get my bum of the sofa!

Hi ISOM i started finding out about an allotment here, i contacted the people you sent me the details for and after being moved around from pillar to post i've found out who i need to ring and get myself on the list. I really can't wait, the hard work will do me good.
How much have a to lose?????/ well if you ask my doctor it's half a bus, if you ask me i'd be happy with at least 10st, but even 5st would be fab. I really just need to get my head into gear i've been going to slimming clubs for the last few years and at most have lost a stone. Then i just seem to get stuck and gain half of it back on. My worst episode was SW where i gained more than i lost.
Craft wise, i was looking for double sided tape which i got a good stock of, but also managed to get some great reasonably priced die cut alphabets some of which i used to finish off the guest book. Got some storage boxes for my papers and card stock. I did put stuff back but it still came to a small fortune, thank god for my surprise honerarium at work. and i know its stuff i'll use. Guess i'll have to start making christmas gift tags ready to try and sell them at my parents housing association complex. Hopefully they'll be interested in them, OH thinks i should make myself a portfolio of cards so i can try and sell them as well. I do sometimes manage to do this but never go for the hard sell.0 -
Hi ISOM
Big hugs!! Will email tomorrow.
Please beware MBNA timing...I had the whole thing (0% BT, new credit card, new credit limit, CC agreement signed etc etc) approved/sorted on 1st March after 2 hour telephone call. They said they had effected the BT there and then.
However, rang up my other credit card on saturday and found the BT hadn;t gone ahead and I had now missed the final payment at 0% BT (25th March) . Rang MBNA and found new Platinum Credit card account was only opened up on saturday (i.e. 3 weeks after application approved) ..and no BT on the files!! :mad: :mad: :mad: So..now facing interest on rather large balance that should have come off old CC by 25th March but won;t til friday at earliest. Will be writing to MBNA to reclaim interest!!
Oooh sorry, this has been bit of a rant.....but don;t want you to get caught with MBNA as I have been........so sorry to hear Easter's been a bit "out of sorts"..... personally I think it's the ****** weather........going back to hide in my hole..with the wine(:eek: )..will be in contact this week. Chin up!! I have block and tackle ready for mine tomorrow!!
Love

oh did manage to get two supersoft blankets reduced from Dunelm which i made into curtains for the patio doors. We got light coloured ones so we can keep them closed to cut out the terrible girraffes but not the light. They are slightly too long which means they pool on the floor to stop drafts underneath but are perfect. Lightweight but dense blend, and i've felt the difference already.0

Morning all,
Ok decisions made. TV & Gym are going. Dont need either and with digging season on the way will get excercise there. Plus the new pool is freezing and the total lack of custmer service is doing my nut & just prooving stressful rather than relaxing & enjoyable as I'd hoped. Back to LA Gym I go and will just pay for the occasional sauna when I want to go. They may make me remain a member for 3 months but I'll see what I can negociate. Have decided to channel my anger effectively - ie go and have a rant & see if I can get my £40 joining fee back!
TV have used but not as much as I thought so thats going to and will also cancel my running mag and buy with tesco vouchers.
Todays jobs are pay money into bank & off CC - 50 will be diverted to account to pay for big boots shop. Go to po to post ebay parcel that sucessfully sold and have phisio and go to gym.
Sorry to hear of bunny Wol - hope your bro will pay for this? He shouldnt have left you with a sick bunny & dont see why you feel guilty as sounds like youve done all you could? Hugs for you!
Well done on the allotment LT - how long will it take you to get one? I love mine! Really would be gutted if I couldnt have it although do sometimes struggle to get out when its cold. You cant dig when its wet anyway cos it damages the soil. Keep me posted! I havent planted anything yet but may this week...
Re the BT wol its off egg so if any delay the money would be taken by DDM anyway so that should be ok...have never cocked up before and have had quite a few BT's from themWill keep an eye out so thanks for the heads up.
Havent heard from ebay buyer who said she didnt want to buy ...not sure how long to leave it before a non paying thing...have looked at her feedback and its not brilliant TBH!
Have also decided to keep a mood diary and log things like PMT, when I drink wine etc to see if there's a pattern. Am on holiday this week so should be feeling great! Hope youre all ok....?Nerd no 109 Long haulers supporters DFW #1! Even in the darkest moments, love and hope are always possible.0 -
Gym in process of being cancelled...tv gone
Now off to hand deliver gym letter & see what I can do and pay money in to bank & deliver parcel...back later! Have looked at diary & think that there is a definate pattern about this time of the month in terms of feeing low. Good because it means this too shall pass! Will ring GP & see if impant due a refit!
