finally found time to get on here - been running around a lot today
Had a lovely long lie in this morning and then after brekkie - nearer like lunch time really
decided to drive down to Bristol and visit Ikea - still looking for furniture for the new house. Saw quite a few items that would do nicely so will now wait til we can do a bit of measuring up before putting in our order - things often seem smaller than they really are in these huge showrooms lol
Cooking dinner now - M&S lasagne with some scrummy McCains spicy potato wedges. It'll definitely be back to healthy eating tomorrow
hope you've all had a good and POSITIVE day

................
Now that wouldn't have anything to do with sub-conscious nerves would it?
I am sure everything will go okay for you today - if is well known fact that after the 'high' of the new job, there often follows a bit of a 'low' - so keep your eyes open eh?
Have fun and hope all your new colleagues are good to work with
cheers

morning everyone
Feeling much better today - spent most of yesterday running to the loo - not the best of ways to be starting a new job
I'd love to think it was due to sub-conscious nerves mindless, but have to own up and say it was totally self induced
Things were pretty manic - the department is about to host a very important event so I didn't even get a chance to unpack my stuff. It was all hands to the pump - hoping to get my desk properly organised today. Early days yet, but think it's going to work out okay.
Keeping it light again today........here's the menu.........
Brekkie - 2 shredded wheat plus a mug of coffee made with remainder of my half pint skimmed milk.
Mid Morning - small banana
Lunch - tuna, cucumber and cherry tomatoes tossed in fat free dressing. CD malted toffee bar. Grapes.
Dinner - steamed fish and stir fry veggies. CD butterscotch shake made into mousse.
4/5ltrs water.

late up as usual
Not much planned for today - just had a big bowl of porridge and will probably scoff a couple of crumpets before popping off out to town
Heard yesterday that the house should be ready for completion by the end of this coming week.............better go and look for a bed pretty quick then
Actually we're not in too much of a rush as we've got to give a month's notice on the rental so I guess we'll move in gradually...........just as well really 'cos the sofa etc won't be ready much before the end of May anyway
wishing you all a good and POSITIVE Saturday

morning everyone
for the lovely birthday wishes............afraid I made an absolute
of myself.................far too much cake, not to mention the numerous glasses of wine
You're sooo right mindless, it was FANTASTIC being able to celebrate properly this year - hadn't long started CD when I had my 60th birthday last year and was determined to stick to ss so didn't eat or drink at all..............but.............oh boy was it worth it.................YESSSSSSSSSSS
Went into town yesterday afternoon - sorted a pressie out for Mother's birthday early May and picked up a few odds and ends for the new house. Didn't get time to go looking at beds..........planning to do that this afternoon and then Mother is treating us to dinner at a local restaurant
wishing you all a good and POSITIVE Sunday

Hoping it drys up later as Mother is off out on a coach trip to Southampton for the day.
Busy day ahead - we've got a 'familiarisation' visit to the new house at lunch time to check everything is okay - hoping to complete by the end of this week.
Then later this afternoon it's my annual appraisal...........not expecting much from the WW
She's bound to give me a hard time - the good news is that hopefully it's the last time I'll need to deal with her!!!!

Brekkie - 2 shredded wheat plus a mug of coffee made with remainder of my half pint skimmed milk.
