much better day food wise

Have eaten SW properly, must lose at least 2lb's this week.

Shock and horror - my MOT is due tomorrow ! Had to text boss to say will be in late, Key will come with me to nearest MOT centre and take me to work - hope they can MOT my car ! - HOPE it passes - it's a terrible worry that I might not have it for Tuesday and TAX is due too - so don't know what I'm going to do.

Nightmare really. I should have checked earlier, but really thought it was about 15th December when we bought the car - didn't realise they (the garage) registered the car on 30th November.

Ah well. Might have to go to work by bus and/or train. THE NIGHTMARE !

Have had a relaxing day. Done three ATC's for the Christmas Swop on C.O.C.

Terrible day for food !

the 1.5 I lost I have probably regained since Thursdays weigh in - so gotta get back to SW properly tomorrow otherwise I shall be disappointed by weigh in on Thursday. AND Christmas celebrations really start now - John and Chris's on Saturday night for a 'large' tea, so much be good good good. IF I manage t lose 2lb's this week - that'll be half a stone by 3.12 - 10.12 I could be another 2 down (9lb's) and 17th (11lb's) so by Chrismas eve I could very well be a stone lighter - really must must must try now.

Keir sold his bike - he was so sad to see it go. I have to remind myself that I am glad to see the back of it - it worried me every time he was out on it, but then he's getting a car and he wants a fast car and that worries me too - but at least they can come visit us when they want to and we won't have to keep doing all this too'ing and fro'ing. I do miss him being at home though.

Korin needs a job, I hope something comes up for her very soon.

Ashley from the sales office (house) rang today to say that it's more than likely going to be 11th December - completion. I don't know whether to stay here or move before Christmas? This place is such a mess - carpets need cleaning etc - but at new house we will need to have a large shed erected and the internet and phone put in and sky before Christmas - it all seems such a rush when January we can take our time. Oh the dilema huh.

this last two weeks have gone in a total blur

2 x 40 hour weeks - BUT IT HAS BEEN SO GREAT BECAUSE THE SHIT I WORK WITH WAS ON HOLIDAY ! but I am absolutely exhausted...........................dreading Tuesday when she is back, trying not to think about it. People have though, volunteered 'critisisms about Mrs N' this last fortnight - I didn't get drawn in or talk about her, just realised that she's the same vile nasty shit to everyone. One person said 'She's so far - up - herself and an absolute snob'. It fitted her like a 'T'.

Ear infections have finally cleared up.

Have almost got a completion date for house of w/c 14th - will PROBABLY move on 15th - dependent on whether we can pack this place up and get everthing over there?

Tired.

Keir sells his bike today and getting a car - thank goodness.

Korin down because she is NOT getting interviews - hope she's OK.

Key worn out - but off tomorrow, we will have to have a rest tomorrow.

Still got to sort my ATC's for Rhonda and C.O.C Christmas Swap.......................not really doing much with UKS - I go through these phases.

Slimming world first week lost only 3.5 lb's but couldn't say I was real good on the plan. 2nd week I was quite diabolical on the plan for the first 3 days and then got into it and lost 1.5lb's so I was quite happy with that and 5lb's down in two weeks - could be that stone for Christmas if I get my knickers into gear !

Will try.

That's me - VERY TRYING.

Tee hee.

I bin and gone and done it

went back to Slimming World .................. they're an OK lot - by the sound of it - quite a few very successful target members - hope they 'take me in' and include me. I usually go to slimming groups with someone - the last twice was with DH......................ah well, it had to be done. WASN'T as heavy as I thought I might be - 3 - 4 pounds lighter than I thgought, but STILL around a stone to lose, hopefully before Christmas ? - do-able I think. Well, Ive done it before anyway, but when I was much younger.

AND although you can basically eat and eat and eat on SW - I found that I was hungry today. Gotta get into it properly.

Will go look at house tomorrow.......................I reckon we should be moving in 4 weeks time - just in time for Christmas eh, but we knew that.

My ear infection, I thought was getting better, got excessively worse today and had to go to the doctor again. I gotta stop prodding it with things !

I am wacked.

Got so much on my mind.......................Kay wants all the accounts too and I haven't got a clue where everything is - boxes everywhere, this house is a tip - but we can clear it out to move to our new house and then come back here to clean carpets and finish sorting the garage and getting stuff to the tip - I HOPE.

REALLY want to do some crafting the weekend as I haven't had much chance to do it - and I want to send a set of 9 ATC's to Rhonda. 2 ATC's for the Christmas Swap on C.O.C. Get back to doing a few ATC swaps on UKS too - I hope if I can keep the ATC trail going, must post a 'we need you' I thought I had but it's gone AWOL unless it was taken off by a moderator?

Good news is that I am without Mrs Nasty at work for 2 whole weeks - lets party ! Bad news is that because she is away I will have to do 2 x 40 hours weeks, which lead into another good news thought that THEN when we move I will have 24 hours to take - which is almost a full normal working week for me..................although SHE can never cover a monday for me - so I can use 21 hours for a Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday off.

Gotta get to bed, I am tired. (AND HUNGRY)

Gotta shop tomorrow for 'good' foods for the SW plan as me and DH and DD are all going to have a go at doing it - I would love to go back next week having lost, at least, 5lb's which would take me into the next 'Stone' barrier.

Fingers crossed. - and mouth stitched up. Tee Hee.

Tuesday 10th November already

Don't you just think that GOLD LEAF is so so scrumptious.

Love this ATC. EXCITED TO that RHONDA my lovely American friend loves ATC's - I'm so hoping she's going to get 'into' it - ATCmaking that is and swap with me and others. It would so help her to relax and enjoy her life a bit more - I think. She's arty - and lovely. I hope she does.

Awaiting a completion date on house - reckon it might be in the next two weeks - end of November, early December ! I think.

Really busy this week with change in hours at work and reflexology customers, plus next week and the week after my COW-orker is on holiday for a fortnight - THANK GOD.
