i don't blame you wanting to move out...i'm a bit freaky about mice since we bought in a vase from the shed. i was washing it out as it had dirt in it and noticed the plug hole was blocked so started to stir it round with my finger. then i realised it was two dead mice. i had to throw the vase out. i was so freaked! sorry, i've probably freaked you now. i've gone all eughhhh remembering that xx0

GnB - hope you feel better.
2lb off your starting weight is good going. I haven't weighed that little since I was about 14, even as a size 10 I was 10 stone plus, and no I am not seven foot tall. Now a 14/16 but technically obese, bones of lead me.
Bear in mind i'm only little! 5ft 1 on a good day:o I was 10st 4 this time last year:eek: This is just my last little push to get 'baby' weight off. Actually its not from pregnancy, i put on very little extra weight when i was pregnant, it was the year after i had her when i ate at really weird times, and ate 'easy' mostly junk food. Not proper meals.

Evening peeps
Have had a flick over the thread since Tuesday evening!
Welcome back Rach - was only thinking bout you Tuesday wondering where/how you were.
Hugs for tia for poorlies, AnW's mum for missing DH, nicki for missing DD and ex, GnB for being poorly, and anyone else who needs one.
Painkillers for Mudbath, and dont forget when you are sitting down to sit with your hand resting on your shoulder as this stops any throbbing and reduces any swelling.
Well done on the weight loss to Mudbath and hex and I think there was someone else as well so :T
Glad to hear you feeling a bit better tracy.
Vanilla theres a really good hand cream that people use for eczema called 'gloves in a bottle' which is really good (and guess it can be used on other parts of the body) DId you mean he had been tested for coeliac because there is a related skin condition called Dermatitis herpetiformis which might be worth looking up.
Well I've done no flying for 2 days now. Have been at work and yesterday I came home and spent then next 6 hours making DD a wartime style dress for her school trip today on a steam train playing evacuees. Tonight I've done the kids tea and as OH gone to work again I'm going to crash out early as I'm not back at work until 31st March, and apart from an Easter party with DD tomorrow afternon (which we have to make a bonnet yet!) and organising her sleepover party for 30th, Ive nothing else planned so will be around.
Good news, while looking for an instruction manual yesterday I found my Pie Magic so might have a play with that over the next few days.
Think thats all for now, gonna spend a while doing stuff on the computer so might pop back.
See ya later.
PS was only thinking how nice it would be if we could have some mini-meets for flyladys. Anyone else in Norfolk, South Lincs or East Cambs interested.Mortgage, we're getting there with the end in sight £6587 07/23, otherwise free of the debt thanks to MSE help!0 -
Thanks for the hugs - Its most definitely him I'm missing not the company
Even with company I miss him, all the little niggling annoyances I'm missing like him forgetting to switch lights off or leaving the kitchen/livingroom door open so I'm sitting in a draught. I won't go into other things about him I'm missing, but lets just say my heart still skipped a beat when I saw him yesterday even though I was about ready to kill him as I was in such a foul mood
The moment they left last night I collapsed into a sobbing heap. I tried so hard to be tough and get on with it, but whenever I see him or even speak to him some days it all goes wrong and I end up crying again. Can someone please just put me out of my misery and put me down please?
:o
JillD - I weighed in on Monday and there was no change thats probably why I forgot to report in. Sorry!
Anyways, the paint I offered on freecycle has gone, ladders are going tonight as well. Some other bits and pieces I'm waiting to hear back from people about but it should be all gone by 2pm on Saturday leaving me with just the ebay pile to sort :rolleyes: Which reminds me .....* toddles off to update Turbolister and her postage charges sheets* :wave:Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0 -
thanks for the advice kazmeister...i do keep forgetting to put it up. as soon as i read that i put it up and it felt great. so thanks xx0

g&b, yack, hope you are better soon
hex :rotfl: woosie :rotfl: I used to have mice in my freezer so you wouldn't want to stay heresometimes still have 'pinkies' which are baby ones
nicki, I'm sure it'll get easier over time, from what you have said before your feelings for him are in a way wasted as he wasn't even willing to sort things through. Keep your chin up honey.
Denise, those puppies sound like a right little handful :rotfl: you've just stopped me looking at them, I was driving past one today and thought about it......changed my mind nowHope you enjoy having everyone home
Well I had sent the boys up to bed, but all I can hear is them and DP messing aboutnice to hear that actually as he's not been very good with them or anything else lately. Anyway at least I am getting to watch Holby Blue in sort of peace and quiet, I don't mind hearing them giggling
Tonights left to do - washer load in and on, DW filling, fed sonic, dogs out, bin emptying, general tidy up of kitchen/living room, washing that's dry folded and put what doesn't need to go in DSs rooms away. Then of course more studyingOne day I might be more organised...........

Slinkies target 2018 - another 70lb off (half way to what the NHS says) so far 25lb0
