JanD into the third year of maintenance :-D

They're fab aren't they - you must have a look Mary when you can

That's a thought Molly but knowing what they're like, the putting together wouldn't be a happy thing. The boys are too young to be able to do anything useful towards helping and my son isn't the most patient person in the world . Also I really like the idea of flying it into the room and seeing their pleasure ... though it could end up being the only option!!

Guess what I'm eating???? A packet of MEANIES!!! . John found them in Asda for me .. they're good aren't they?? Shame they don't have a bit of a cheesey taste as well as the onion but they're not TOO overpowering so I like them

2 lots of toast again today - oh yeah and a bounty in between

Tea was left over quorn stew from the other night a few chippy chips and BOTH ends off DH's chippy fish - well it was HUGE!!!

Have had the meanies plus some of a packet we opened at home to try and have also brought to work a philli light & turkey ham salad wrap and 2 boiled eggs. x

The meanies are delish aren't they!!

The look on the boys faces on Xmas morning will be cute when u fly it in! x

 

[JanD]

Yeah the meanies are a real find - thanks for that

Fingers crossed it all goes to plan and I CAN fly it in eh!

Forgot to say before - about the mash Mary ... I never mash ordinary spuds, only sweet ones and they really are nice crushed anyway ... and adding butter and milk??? Wash your mouth out!! (preferably with chocolate ) That would be lovely but I wouldn't dare! xx

 

[kered]

Aww they will be so excited at it flying into the room, I will have a look on my days off.

Meanies - must try them before D Day Jan 3rd

 

[JanD]

[JanD]

Dunno if I'll weigh in the morning x

 

[JanD]

Had a lovely night last night - it started with watching Michael Buble's Christmas, continued with the Take That concert and then we put Xmas cds on. DS & I were singing and dancing, we really enjoyed it, though we drank far too much and stayed up far too late - expecially as he was up early to go to London for 2 days this morning & I had to get up to take DD for her echocardiogram (no news about that as yet). I think we both feel it was worth it

AND ... WTF??? In the last 3 weeks - since i last got weighed, you know how bad I've been AND I've only gained 0.2lb!!????!!! I'm sure I was dehydrated this morning though .... but I probably am most mondays :giggle: so now I'm 10st 12.4lbs - I was sure I'd be in the 11s by now - so pleased I'm not ... though the fillet o'fish I had in McDonalds this lunchtime won't have helped keep me in the 10s xx

 

[MiniB]

How's your DD now Jan? Any news yet? Hope she's OK and they sort things out real soon!

 

[MiniB]

Sort of crossed paths there!

Well done on the tiny gain, great!

 

[JanD]

HaHa we must have posted at the same time

No news - she's still waiting for the clinic appointment to get all the results etc :sigh: She's getting really fed up and lethargic - I think they need a bomb behind them!! x

 

[summergurl]

Don't knock it Jan take that result it's brill

Fingers crossed u hear soon about dd. last night sounded lovely xxx

 

[irish molly]

That little gain is a great result at the moment. I hope the hospital tests yield something positive.

 

[kered]

Fabulous result on the gain Jan, just the boost you might have needed.

Love the sound of the night with your Son, sounded just like my type of night, I love it when the kids are up and we end up having lovely times.

 

[JanD]

Well I've done the last of the shopping today - just the fresh stuff to get on saturday now

It's looking like my son and the boys will be moving back home tomorrow .... with a view to coming back for 5 days or so in the new year while the kitchen & bathroom are fitted. Mixed feelings for obvious reasons but I'll save a fortune on food that's for sure!!

Bad day food wise today.
Breakie - banana mousse
midmorning - toasted teacake
lunch - wetherspoons tuna melt panini
pm - half a piece of chocolate shortcake
tea - Birds Eye crispy chicken with wedges, beans and mayo. Cup cake

wine

Baaaaaaad day xx

 

[summergurl]

Jan, thats not that bad of a day chick!
What cupcake did you have?

I'm baking 3 kinds on friday - chocolate with mint whipped cream, chocolate with vanilla buttercream and vanilla with strawberry jam inside & vanilla buttercream ..... i'm going to be busy! I might even whip up a batch of muffins if I get time too! lol

 

[JanD]

It was just a big fairy cake really, plain sponge with green icing done like a christmas tree & baubles (which I nearly broke my teeth on!) & icing snowflakes ... I'm sure it wasn't as good as any of yours!!
