DFW Daily Chat 1 March St. David's Day

Dydd Gwyl Dewi hapus to all the lovely Welsh DFW'ers! (I hope I haven't just said anything too rude or ordered a takeaway:rotfl: !!)

Cold but sunny here, think I'm going to work all day today and then clean the house tomorrow. I'm putting off the cleaning to the very last minute before I go!!
:D"Stay Wonky":D

  • Morning! It's lovely and sunny here in Northumberland but still chilly! I'm off to pack bags in Asda this afternoon for 3 hours, to help raise money for charity - at least it'll keep me from spending (unless I see nice things in peoples baskets that I 'need' - will fight any urges!)

    Before I do that thogh, I need to tackle the European ironing mountain..........or stay on MSE and procrastinate.......hmmm, wonder which it'll be?!

    morning:D

    dh has gone fishing so i have been up since 7.30,washing is on the line already and a second load in.

    nothing much occuring today,but i do need to buy a bag later,for college a4 size and enough space to put my packed lunch in as i don't mind paying 40p for a brew i don't want to be buying carpy fatty food, as i am on a bit of a healthy eating plan, have been for 3 days now and fingers crossed its going well.
    i still keep having a few tears as i have never had a weight 'issue' before so this sudden weight gain has been a bit of a shock.

    my dad rang me last night and asked if i would have my sister for a few days over easter weekend, which will be nice.
    quick family tree, my mum and dad were married had moi ,31 brother ,28
    they both remarried dad had sis age 14 mum had brother age 16 my son is nearly 15 so his auntie is younger than him:confused: yet!!! my daughter is 13 so they are more like mates which will be nice, i am secretly chuffed that he has asked me as i missed out on 9 years of her life as i didnt get on with his wife etc etc family carp. i love her to bits.

    I really should not have bought loads of bags of Flipz off ebay. It's probably as well they are only available in america now otherwise I'd be the size of 2 houses rather than 1!! I'm merrily munching my way through a bag and they are so addictive!
