Hi All,
Just a note to ask how many of you have your kids off school due to the snow!!!
Had laptop by the bed this morning so that I could check the school closures web page without getting out of bed, and low and behold as there is not any Council Run School Transport and also as the paths etc round school are dangerous there is no school today... and looking at the weather forcast I think it could be for rest of week.
So I have Ben off school, doing his Mr Bossy Boots impression, so far today (bearing in mind he didn't wake up til 10am), we have watched DVD, played on Wii and surfed the internet, especially You Tube looking for Thomas The Tank Engine and his favourite thing at the moment Rubbish Lorries.
As I type this he is watching a re-run of An Audience with Sir Cliff Richard... and is singing along to all the songs (thanks to my mother in law for that!!).. and he wants to watch it again!!
Anyway I have to go into work tonight, braving the freezing temperatures again, luckily my manager is willing to let us go home once we have completed all our work and that will hopefully be at around 9.30pm, so should be home by 945...but it will just be my luck that the work will be late and I will be left with my colleague moaning about how we should be allowed home as weather is bad, that it's dangerous for her to drive her car etc, its alright for me as I have a new car (through Mobility). Its not as if I havent offered to pick her up and drop her at home, I just think she likes to moan about anything...to be honest last night she did my head in :jelous: :jelous:
So far today I have actually managed to stay on plan...mainly because I am too busy running around after Ben.
I have to start losing this excess 8.5 stone, which I can actually visualise as that weight is just over twice Ben's current weight and I struggle to lift him these days...
As I type it is just starting to sprinkle with snow again, hopefully it will just be a little shower, as it seemed that the snow was actually beginning to thaw.
If Ben is off school tomorrow, its also being Kevin's day off tomorrow we will more than likely build our snow family again, can't decide whether to characterise them like last year when we had "The Lush" - Had an empty whiskey bottle, and "Lusty Busty" - Had a couple of balloons as boobies..
Hope to get myself orgainised enough to start doing food diaries etc next week.
