Sorry for crap title, my first time

Roundup of today:

shiney, hope you and J have a wonderful weekend together.

Queen, yuck. I hated nearly every minute of my pregnancy. Seriously, if you search my name from about Jan-Aug 2009, it will all be me moaning about how much it sucks. Sympathy for you from another hyperemesis sufferer.

DIB, my stomach leapt a bit reading about your DS, how scary! Glad he seems to be ok.

Alice, your DS is very curled up in there and you've got a ways to go (sorry!) so wouldn't worry about bump size at all.

VT, I think you should prepare for the camping by ceasing all ironing now

BOF, what the hospital appt for? You ok? Hope you feel better!

ABF, hello and welcome! I also think of Carry On films when I see ding dong, DH has forced me to watch them as part of my education on what it means to be British

DI, I am jealous. Tell me next time it is 'dress like a pirate day'.

SAF, my mom believed in benign neglect and got two very self-reliant and capable children. I don't go for doorstop selling of anything, I have a very comprehensive sign that seems to be keeping people away and stuff out of the letterbox.

bitter, I'm sorry, but at your DS being a bottom-flasher!

GetOrf, so giving up diet coke makes you lose weight? Might have to try that one!

bella, glad the cake situation was sorted. I am jealous, I want ducks to come to my house. We just have the neighbourhood cat who leaves us dead stuff [boak]

Goober, yay for another pound off!

korma, flylady is the way forward.

Sazz, that doesn't sound too bad, 4lbs can come off in two weeks. Good job on all the exercise.

Jet, hello! You just reminded me to check my BMI, and I have JUST graduated from 'Morbidly Obese' to merely 'Obese'! Hooray!

Mitts, at least she is your XMIL

hells, good luck with the nits

ScreaminEagle, I'm another who joined late (though it's been nearly 6 months now!).

Norma, hope your DS's finger is ok!

Defluff, at 'yo homies' I feel 12 again.

Went to pick up DS at nursery today and was alerted to the possibility he may be developing chicken pox!! ARrggggghhhhhhhhhhhh I really really hope not, I've only been back at work a week!

My luck is seriously shit. On the positive side the nursery worker thought if he had it the spots would be showing up faster instead of the very gradual increase over the day. So either he doesn't have it and has some weird other rash thing, or he has a mild case, or it will be turning up with a vengence tomorrow.

Either way, it is wine o'clock, DH is going to Spar now to fetch some in.

oh lovely bath!

Mitt's mycat is right - I was blind as a bat but didn't realise it wasn't normal!!! Didn't end up with glasses till I was about 10 but somehow managed to cope till then and I really was very very short sighted - minus 7 or something like that. I can assure you (actually you already know by my posts) that I am not one to suffer in silence...

So please don't feel you have missed something you should have picked up!!

Food diary for today...

Bowl of Watermelon and a yogurt for Breakfast

I can of spaghetti and 3 slices of toast for lunch.

Go Ahead strawberry yogurt bar mid afternoon snack.

Bowl of chicken and mushroom pasta for dinner.

I feel a bit hungry still, not sure what to have. There is a crunchie tempting me, or a bit more pasta, can't decide.

hellsbelles · 01/05/2010 20:42

Jaq - step away from the crunchie ;-)

oh shiney - how jujus has been spoiling you with all that lovely sightseeing.

Jaquelinehyde · 01/05/2010 20:42

Oh and I have cut all fizzy out of my diet. I have drunk water all day, with two cups of tea. I have even cut the sugar out of my hot drinks.

That doesn't sound very much, Jac. How many calories?

Jaqueline darling- do you think you could squeeze out a wee? I suggest unwrapping the crunchie and then peeing on it. Then you will only eat it if you are truly determined.

I told you I was full of pearls of wisdom!

hello Picture.

We haven't seen you in ages

MyCatIsABastard · 01/05/2010 20:48

oh yes, shiney, that sounds v similar to me and DH on our first dates. I think it was something to do with me viewing his manly prowess over a car engine or something equally caveman.

Must say, popped into M&S at motorway services on way home and bought some of their jaffa cakes. I'm not normally a jaffa cake fan but they are bloody gorgeous, particularly with a nice glass of vin rough .

Sazz, I'm glad it's not just me then. We'd best not get together when we're hungry then, we're likley to either kill each other over the first morsal of food that appears .

Lizzylou · 01/05/2010 20:49

Mitts, DS1 is very shortsighted in his left eye, he has a very sevee astigmatism, it is getting better and glasses for kids are gorgeous now.

Jushi, your weekend sounds fun thus far, a bit like Pretty Woman

Jac, NO to the crunchie!

Fanny, please don't eat the ickle lamb

TotalChaos · 01/05/2010 20:50

Picture think your fresh approach to diet advice will benefit us all!

jac - good thinking about having a drink in case it's thirst not hunger.

Five - I was thinking aww cute about the lamb till I read about poo on the floor! I am such a hopeless townie...

Jaquelinehyde · 01/05/2010 20:51

Hi Sazz

Did the drinking thing half an hour ago so not that. Although I could now probably squeeze out a wee for on the crunchie...alls well that ends well.

Actually I have had a rummage and found a small foxs lunch box bar and have had that. A little chocolately but with much less calories. I have asked dp to put the crunchie in the cupboard and the dcs can share it tomorrow.

Having a cup of tea now, and if my head keeps telling me I'm hungry I shall have a banana.

Goober · 01/05/2010 20:52

Today I have eaten 2 Asda Caramel choex buns.

Shoot me please.

TotalChaos · 01/05/2010 20:53

I'm ambivalent to the crunchie - as I'm sure jac has the calories spare for a less than healthy snack - but sometimes eating chocolate bars can lead to craving more junk after...

mycat - yes they are bluddy gorge aren't they, think it's the dark chocolate.

Jaquelinehyde · 01/05/2010 20:56

All this talk of wees, excuse my I'm off to the loo for a minute. Anything anyone wants peeing on?

Jaquelinehyde · 01/05/2010 21:00

Consider it weed on pic.

Jaquelinehyde · 01/05/2010 21:02

Oh and try not thinking of me weeing on it when you finally eat it

MrsWobbleTheWaitress · 01/05/2010 21:04

Wasting - ROFLMFAO.

Basically, there's this group I want to join, and I can't join it unless I join another group, which seems much more of a big deal. No real dilemma - thought I'd ask you lot in the same way I would toss a coin

FiveGoMadInDorset · 01/05/2010 21:06

DH has just made salmon and green bean risotto and very nice it was too.

But Lizzy just imagine how nice he will taste roasted with mint sauce and red currant jelly, if he was a girl I could have got baby lambs from her next year and would have been far less emotionally attached.
