The shiney people are so bright..you gotta wear shades!

...best I can do as I am so sleep deprived...

I am Mitts and myself and this bunch of reprobates are trying to eat more healthily, drink MORE WATER (ladeees!).. exercise a bit.. losing weight is the goal of some of us, others are just treating our bodies like the temples they deserve to be... om om ommmmm!

Meh. Have screwed up by booking on 13 hours excel training at work instead of 6 (god knows how I managed that), am hoping manager lets me cancel it.....also found out today that at least a quarter of my workload is scarpering offsite in September to a closed warehouse. Not sure how well this bodes during the inevitable forthcoming staff cuts..... we live in interesting times eh. Am racking up as much overtime as I can while I still have a job!

no aftersun here - dont normally buy all the creams etc till june - not used to this hot weather its not too bad, just more redder than usual

Yesterday I got to work and boss-man said boss-lady wouldn't be around all week and I wouldn't see her before I left for holiday and handed me an envelope which had a lovely Happy Holidays note in and what boss-man called " A bit extra for a drink on us". I said thankyou blah blah and didn't look at ££ til I was alone. Expected to find a tenner. But there was £75 in it!!!

How lucky am I?

I'm off to bed. Shouldn't be on here again until late tomorrow afternoon - French club in the morning, home ed group early afternoon.

Mitts - he's a bit far from you, but he's just accepted my friend request so you might see it pop up on your FB news if you want to add him yourself!

Hopefully will manage to see y'all tomorrow

ps. AIBU to bloody fancy the pants off Derren Brown?

Missed you too Iggi!

TC, GP looked yesterday and all the wax is gone now--apparently my hearing loss is caused by something else, probably ruptured drum which needs to heal and can take a while. She also said it looked infected again so on stronger antibiotics. Will keep that mini syringe in mind for next wax problem though!

I am multitasking...waiting for hair dye to take effect, pumping milk, and MNing. 5 min left before rinsing.

Wow! Goober!

Good grief Yank you are busy woman. Am impressed. Don't get any of your activities mixed up now
I've just sent some eurovision party invites out, featuring this of course

N'night MrsW. Keep away from FB!

Very tricky IOTD. I gave up smoking 3 years ago. I still want a fag every day. I wish you luck.

Evening all, did you miss me?

Sorry I've not been around much, but DH is being a bit of a bully at the moment - I'm trying to keep the peace.

Mrs W - may I point out that
a) I claimed Derren first and
b) He is gay, so neither of us are in with a chance.

Jet, have you tried glasses direct?

Unfortunately my prescription is too strong to use them but they have some fab frames, and you can select 4 pairs for a free home trial - they even pay the postage.

Yank, I just want to give you a big squeeeze, you are so lovely.

Hope everyone is ok.

ITTD you know you wanted to

Have just noticed (remember I'm behind the times) that there is a make-up thread by the other-healthydiet thread person. Surely our leader should have her own make-up thread, she is expert on such matters??

Goober - wow, that's some drink!

bitter - sorry you are going through such a tough time with DH.

yank -well that's a bit different from what you were told last week, sounds like the ear needs lots of TLC, hope the abs help.

iggie - what a pita re:journey back.

Oh I made sure my work knew about it so they could see what a trooper I am for not just staying until the airports reopened!
And how are you TC? Want to hear a silly man story?

fine apart from general meh-ness re:work, job security etc (see post below)

so gwon, give me your silly man story!

Your job won't be cut as you are/will be the world's Excel expert and will be indispensable.

guilty snort at the new hoover story - the guilt coming from the fact that it sounds like something I would do, I can be a right spacecadet at times...

You two are too understanding!
I want faces at incompetent man!
Right am off to bed with him. Knackered.
Have been nursing same cold for over 3 fecking weeks now. Time someone took if off my hands.
Nighty night.

TC, I know, I hope I haven't done any damage putting those drops in and rooting around for wax. A bit more did come out, that must have been the last of it--but then I was convinced there was more because I couldn't hear. Arrrgghhh.

Iggi, I haven't been caught out for a long time, cannot believe you got me. Is Eurovision soon? It seems like only a little while ago I watched it for the first time while MNing.

DI, everything crossed for you!

Bitter, thanks for the squeeze.

And thanks everyone for just being here and being really kind and supportive. BOF's flowers are blooming, bella's card is on display, lovely bracelet waiting for an occasion to be worn. It really does help.

I am having my final cup of tea (tonight). MrCock and I have had a lovely hour just chatting while waiting for my hair to dry and find out what colour it is this time. My money is on brown
