There's a StarFruit waiting in the Pie.......10/10

[TinyBlueFeather]

Original post by the lovely FrannyandZooey

For anyone who wants to boost their general health. The suggested goals are:

EAT 10 PORTIONS OF FRUIT AND VEGETABLES EVERY DAY - If you don't normally eat much fruit and veg I would build up gradually or you could upset your digestion.

DO (AT LEAST) 10 MINUTES EXERCISE EVERY DAY - can be yoga, stretching or something more energetic. The plan is that the idea of doing 10 mins is not too daunting, and having started you may well find you want to do more.

There are no restictions on what you eat as long as you get your 10 fruit and veg as well. The focus is not on weight loss but on improving your energy levels and hopefully mood and well-being. Sign up below and post here to tell us how you are getting on and how you are feeling.

Basic guidance on what constitutes a portion of fruit and veg here and you can download more detailed information by following the link at the very bottom of the page.

Do mits help, Franny?

it is bad isn't it guad
AND she irons
i bet she's ironing his shirts
probably his friend's shirts also

pink none of the rest of us do this crap
we sit on mn eating boojas and they make their own lunches that's for sure

The poor little mite. You both must be utterly shattered. I wish I could think of some suggestions to help you both out.

he is swaddled so can't really scratch properly but he wants to
he gets mitts off with his mouth

fuck i have to read my tax return
boco have you done your tax return??? anyone else??

lemur thanks it is ok
i do sleep in between the 45 mins and i get a lie in at weekends

I refuse to make packed lunches for dh. IMO it is the shittest of shitty jobs. You deserve a bloody medal Pink.

I bloody hope not. Pink, you know you can get people to come to the house and take his shirts away don't you? Or rather he can.

I arrived home once while someone delivered dh his shirts and they had the audacity to say to me, 'saves you a job eh love'.

I looked at them and they scurried away in their 'Press Ahead' van or whatever it was called.

fark i did iron one of his shirts
his old goth shirt that should be thrown in the bin
but pink i'm not 20 days away from producing an extra person
i think you are allowed to scrub floors for optimum foetal positioning though

franny are you allowed a gin and lime
do you think it would help

oh
feeding.. probably not

lol @ press ahead.

Pink you are making lunches for his friend? Pink? Come and talk to us sisters about this a minute.

TooT - what horror. Nothing wrong with bourbon biscuits. Give everyone some drugs and send them to bed? [mary poppins moment there]

Franny - Yes I am counting and yes I am excited. I got my first finished copy yesterday. Is beautiful.

Ooooh, I can't wait either.

oh 100 how funny
it was yesterday i was thinking about you but i didn't remember to mention it on here
what does it look like?

I make the lunches cause DH used to spend ££££ at the garage every day and when I stopped working I said he wasn't allowed to buy lunch any more, so I offered the alternative that I would make it. I don't make loads from making friend's lunch but we were economising on things like having shit plastic bread so I now buy nice bread with the extra money.

I don't iron his shirts. (DH or friend!) I would but he won't put them away. I've ironed a week's worth in the past and he shoves them in a heap and last year he asked to me to iron him a shirt one morning which I had already done about 3 days before. So I stopped doing it. I usually do him one for the next day if I'm ironing anyway.

Now I'm going to make french toast

But, but, why can't HE do it?

Fran don't you get fined if you haven't done it by tomorrow?

Have you seen the cover? Only it's better in real life because it feels quite substantial and dark but also quite sexy. I'm not describing v. well. Also embossed letters. Also my name. [faints]

sorry pink
was not meaning to make you justify yourself
i am sure you are capable of running your house in a fair way to suit yourself
but you are really quite cheery and probably quite long suffering if you wanted to be so we worry, you see

pink yes
that is why i am reading it now

Cause he'd do it all wrong and mess up my kitchen

I can't catch up.
Too many posts.

TooT, hope all tootlets recover.

Hundred, do we all get signed copies? Will you be at your local bookshop signing? We could ocme en masse.

Pink, so and lie down and REST.

Crap food, no listing today.

omg
100 there's your name
on a book
A REAL BOOK 100 OMG
