Father in law is home from hospital, hope he keeps taking the tablets which is possible as he now reckons he feels a new man.
My diet is not the best at present but at least I am recognising where I am going wrong (emotional eating) it is just difficult to think before eating. Although I am at a point of chocolate saturation which is unusual.
Morning all - sorry for another weather report! Snow is now gone - thanks to Storm Rachel which is centered on our town....torrential rain and gales of up to 80mph....joy!
I need a new CD player for upstairs. Thinking of the Marantz 6005. Playing music on the pc atm. The sound is reasonable seeing as I bought a decent sound card and speakers. I can't play it loud enough for when I'm sat in the bath though.
I dread to think what is on Saffy's mind.
Ah SC, hope things make a turn for the better soon. Sometimes I wish I was a nice person. Snuggles down under SC's blanket.
Morning all - last (half) day of work before our big trip starting tomorrow....very emotional day yesterday - LMF had to say goodbye to a lot of people...a bunch of her friends, all the guys at church, some family members. The Big Good Bye is tomorrow where she says bye to BGD and Jenn and family...this is hard!
In mundane news - I've got a pink hot water bottle in my lap as it's so cold here!!
I'm trying the 5:2 diet but I'm not very good at diets. I'm good at not eating when I am unhappy and I think I have a reason to be unhappy today so I may lose weight. The other positive is that going out running and cycling are very good for my soul when I feel down. Bonus.
hello all - checking in from Sydney - long, long, long journey....got delayed in Dublin 1.5 hours...got delayed in Abu Dhabi 1 hour - total in the air 22 hours - plus a 4 hour bus journey to get to Dublin...and to top it off I can't sleep in planes or buses (or cars!!) so I'm feeling a wee bit spaced out and a bit sick - it's 5.08 Thursday afternoon and I've been awake since Monday (didn't sleep well Monday night)...but dropped LMF off to her college - she was met with the welcome team who were LOVELY! They took the newbies to the banks to set up local accounts...took them to the cellular people to set up their phones....took them to their house and got them all settled in and are taking them out to dinner tonight! Totally set my mind at ease.
*falls onto pillow* will sightsee next few days when we come round...long haul is not for pansies!!
Only ever done it once GFB and it has put me off for life. Hope the rest of your holiday makes it worth it.
Nothing interesting in or ontop of the cupboards Bookie. You'd think if I haven't touched it in two years I could bin it. I am a hoarder and it will be too painful to change my ways now. Clings onto useless crap.
Diet is still going well and when a I say diet I mean just stop scoffing all the junk food Back is improving so off for a swim this evening, yay chlorine
Ham sandwich again for lunch, you'd think I'd be fed up with them but no.
I'm being a very stupid person, I really like some one but it's a dead end and I can't move on. Every time I think I have I discover I haven't. It's making me very unhappy.
Where are you hurting SC? Do you need gentle hugs. I think we could use a hugathon, GFB can bring sunshine.

Two bars of chocolate and a mince pie today. Must try harder.
I'm not dieting but I'm hoping that a few simple changes to my diet will help with the fatigue

Morning - caved on the diet day yesterday...what sane person can resist homemade pie! So back on it again today.
I only managed 2 hours at work today. I'm absolutely exhausted
I've walked over 70 miles since I got my fitbit...love it!
I can't find the gate keys, this is frustratingly annoying. On top of which I am having a bad day emotionally. I am a mess.
Do you want to snuggle under my blanket with me? I'm not doing so great myself and trying to hide from the world.
Actually, I think I'm trying to hide from myself
I have bought new socks, with cows, sheep, pigs, chickens and rabbits on them.
I read that as homicide pie

Diet began again today, doing OK so far and have managed to say no to offered goodies
I managed a whole day at work and feel that I can do a few small jobs around the house this evening
Good going SC, small steps.
I've been cleaning the kitchen cupboards.

I walked home from the station without needing to use my torch, so spring is on the way.
Father in law now has a stairlift fitted and seems quite happy with it.
Did you find anything interesting in the kitchen cupboards?
I don't do diets. I did once, but rules and enforced restriction don't tend to last, so no more.
I had a dream about thundersnow.

Swimming is good for the soul, hope it is good for your back Alibear.
Been cooking fish and rice for the cats again, it does smell good, add some peas or green beans and I'm sorted. Sorry cats.
Had a little swimble last night which felt OK but today my back is very tingly so no running just yet. I was adventurous and had a club sandwich today
I'm hurting
32 degrees here today - wall to wall sunshine...#thinkingaboutemigrating
Go away GFB, I don't want to know.

(()) morning everyone. I did the bins all on my own yesterday.
Well done Mr. P. Mine haven't been out for a couple of weeks. I don't have the energy.
Hurting physically and emotionally Mouse. I'm emotionally sensitive at the moment and keep getting affected by things that really shouldn't bother me
32 degrees is too hot. Quite happy being closer to 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
Last of the Christmas cheese tonight
There could be a 40 year long running BBC sitcom to be made out of that title.
