Evening all 😁😁
Denise, cold it was bloody freezing!! Everywhere was solid here, white as white. Diabetes, my Dad was diabetic and even before he was ill there was nothing on him, he was less than 10stone wet and for a man at 5ft9 that's not big at all .
The freezer is the shed frigde freezer that's knackered. I will get a new one but need to sort shed out first 😂 as want a small chest freezer.
TIE well done on your loss, but not the way to lose ithope you are feeling a bit better.
Well i got up late, well was only 7.15 but wanted to be out by 7.45 , that didn't work 🤣 Tomorrow i need to be up at 5.15 so better not over sleep, meeting my friend , so company shop will be on the cards 😁

Morning all, it’s sunny here so DH and I are planning to be in the garden today. DD is WFH so we are limited what we can do in her bedroom that doesn’t involve noisy power tools!
I interviewed for a part time role yesterday and was successful. Hoping to start in a few weeks time once the paperwork is complete. The new house is lovely but we are uncovering things that need attention and our savings will only go so far. This is a one year contract with possible extension so I’ll see how I go.Food today:
B - fruit n fibre, blueberries, 0% vanilla yogurt - HEB, S, 1
L - JP, remaining half pack of lentils, pickles - 2, S
D - macaroni cheese - HEA for the cheese and free macaroni. It also contains evaporated milk- can anyone tell me the syns please? TIA
HEA - milk
It’s WI tonight so I’ll take an apple and a fruit tea with me.Have a good day all

Morning all, a lovely sunny day here too @Coxy11. A machine load of washing done and out on the line to dry. Also been shopping this morning so now restocked with plenty of fruit and veg. Tesco had pineapples for 99p so bought one of those and will use some stirred into the sauce tonight. Freezer also has plenty of veg and some frozen fruit and bought loads of meat and fish at Farm Foods last week so hopefully shouldn't need much more this month.
Well done on the job offer @Coxy11. Is it a local job, how many hours? Hope it works out well for you. A contract is often a good way to get a permanent job. It's what my DD2 often does and it's worked for her each time - apart from once which was a 6 month contract and she hated it so she finished the contract and found another one.
Today's plan:
B - sausage sandwich
L - jacket potato, cottage cheese, pickles
D - sweet and sour chicken, rice
HEA - milk
HEB - bread
Syns - LF sausages 2; LF spread 3
Have a good day everyone.

Well i am upsetting the natives 😯 had a nice note on my car when DH went to put the rubbish out, i am well within my space and can get in and out my car easily, perhaps the bloke need to go SW? 😂 I made my friend laugh i said think he has small knob syndrome with the flash car he has 🤣🤣🤣 I am literally about 6 inches away from said Brick pillar! Why couldn't he knock on the door?

Only just over a week to go @bubbs and he can have all the space he wants @bubbs. 🤣
Shame about the Company Shop. ☹️
I've stayed on plan today. We had cauliflower cheese with dinner and, although I didn't measure, I'm pretty confident I stayed within HEXs. Fry up for breakfast and the usual LOs for lunch. Only syn in a tbsp of cornflour. 👍
ETA - Almost all brands of evaporated milk are 1 syn per tbsp @Coxy11.0
