Mornin Dream and Luda.

Quite like this mission except the idea of spraying my bed with Fabreeze!

Had a massive elec bill yesterday (gone up to £90 pm!) DH won't let me put the lights on now and says I should only do 1 load of washing/day . I took a more pragmatic view and switched suppliers (almost halved the bill!).

Nearly done the mornin stuff. Back at lunchtime.

FunkyGlassSlipper · 25/04/2008 08:35

Lol @ Jas's Babystep. Try this one instead

TheMadHouse · 25/04/2008 08:58

Morning all

EHM I am feeling OK this morning. I just think that things catch up sometimes. Roll on seeing the soecialist. I wish is was as easy as apricots and dark chocolate

we are at Music and movement this morning, but I am running a little late with the breakfasts, as DS1 had tummy ache again last night and we spent extra long cuddling in bed this morning - might not have been the pikelets after all

Will be back with more later

BiancaCastafiore · 25/04/2008 09:05

Morning

at the babystep!
I did the mission a couple of days ago

Have fun at toddlers Jas
Luda any more thoughts on the house(s)?
EHM she did stop, thanks. Very tired little girl atm. I'm putting it down to the build up to party day!
Scatty utility bills are getting out of hand aren't they?

Well, I'll be ploughing on today. I didn't achieve much in the end yesterday so have to play catch-up today.
The weather for Sunday is looking awful Heavy rain forecast here most of the day. I'm half considering re-arranging the party for tomorrow (nice weather) but I doubt everyone would be able to make - esp the magician who is pretty crucial! Not at all sure how we'll accomodate 17 7yos in the house though...

Anyway. On with my morning routine then I'll get some baking going while I do other jobs in the kitchen.

EHM · 25/04/2008 09:40

the fly lady is clearly insane!

BiancaCastafiore · 25/04/2008 09:42

Jas I posted your parcel yesterday btw

tortoise · 25/04/2008 10:21

Morning all.
I am still tired! DD1 has gone to school but wasn't happy about it. Still have tears nearly every morning anyway!

I need to tidy up! And also need to book a hall for DD2's party. Probably booked up now!

Be back later!

Ludaloo · 25/04/2008 10:25

I'm back....and very wet! Rained half way home!

I've done a quick tidy, off to clean the nursery this morning.
I have decided to take my own vaccum cleaner....to avoid setting the fore alarm off again.
I have managed to do it twice now and I am sure it is because of the vaccum cleaner in the hall that I was using.
We'll see! It is very and as it is super loud and takes at least half an hour to get someone out to turn it back off!

I'm just eating a star bar and listening to Sting....I really love his music...it has a special place in my heart...and brings back some wonderful memories.....sorry...I get all gushy when I'm in a Sting mood!
Sigh he is soooo sweet!

Madge does fly lady

Ludaloo · 25/04/2008 10:47

LOL Ruby I'd love to be a skinny minnie!

I'm struggling to shift the flab ATM!

I started off on a calorie controlled diet, but got fed up with that quite quickly. I'm doing Slimming World now.
I also joined a keep fit class which I do twice a week, and have also started running twice a week.

So....diet and excercise are my only tips really....sadly!

I am convinced my contraception is preventing weight loss. I have decided to not have my next injection, and am going to have a chat with my doctor about getting sterilised.
I don't really do extra hormones very well! I get very moody and quite irrational and I do gain weight. I have never in my life had a pot belly (even after kids it always went away fairly quickly) but since starting my injections I look permanently preggers! I just CANNOT shift it!
I think by now with my diet and excercise I'd be seeing better results.

Another tip is to dance about a lot...you'd be suprised how good it is for you. I stick a good bouncy tune on
I love this one to bop too
And I dance about whilst doing the house

Ludaloo · 25/04/2008 10:50

(Plus just looking at her figure gives you a real incentive! )

BiancaCastafiore · 25/04/2008 10:50

Snap Ruby, I'm making cakes today too Looking forward to party day

Luda at Sting! I saw him live..I was going to say 'a few year ago' but actually I think it was prob at least 15 years ago! He was FAB!

I have raced round the village trying to find the lady responsible for lending me chairs and tables for parties but can't find her - she has OK-ed it via another friend but I'd like to confirm before I just help myself...

Need to get the oven going now

BBL x

Ludaloo · 25/04/2008 10:51

Another fab one to bop too!

Oh bianca I have never seen him live...it is something I would love to do.

BiancaCastafiore · 25/04/2008 10:55

I'm sure your chance will come Luda I saw him from very high up in the Albert Hall - all I could really see was the top of his head lol! He sounded great though

Ludaloo · 25/04/2008 10:56

Yes! That's the one Ruby It makes your appetite go through the roof, but also I am convinced it makes your body store fat too.

I am glad you said it had the same effect on your friends (not glad for them obviously!) because I was beginning to go mad!
Hopefully when I come off it the extra weight I just cannot shift, will come off too.

I can imagine Bianca. i always listen to recordings of him live and he is so good, he sounds as good live as he does on his albums.

Ludaloo · 25/04/2008 10:58

EHM your link doesn't work

Ludaloo · 25/04/2008 10:59

Hey maybe one day we could treat ourselves Bianca and go and see him
