I got a email saying sale is on. I thought they sent out codes first. Just looked again, it's 'style steals' an edit from previous seasons.

Hola chicas. Have done something horrid to my left shoulder/upper back so in a lot of pain. Medicating with glass of delicious Bordeaux as DH not back till 9 and he left at 6am. Stress. Max stress. Pain, builders, children, mess, DH about to leave. He is going to Oz a week on Friday for five weeks. Am going ostrich over whole thing, pretending not actually happening.

Ordered these little lovelies for DS to give me for my birthday www.pinterest.com/pin/250231323019433703/

Will need massive bouts of distraction in the coming evenings if you lovelies would oblige Flowers xxx

shopafrolic · 14/10/2013 18:30

I saw those Foxy they are lovely - and v bargainous - and yes, of course we'll look after you xxx

foxysocks · 14/10/2013 18:43

thanks shop. am feeling so down about everything, I actually cried on SR this am when another mum asked how i was. there is too much crap atm! no wonder my upper back has seized up, it;s probably paralysed my stress.

on nutrition - I agree with everything sleep has posted. only thing would add is that it is harder on a tight budget. we don't buy any meat at all, I don't eat it and it would blow our budget, so we do have quorn mince or quorn sausages on occasion. lots of tofu, pulses, eggs, fish in this house. and yes, I eat avocados almost everyday, am an addict!

MarshaBrady · 14/10/2013 18:53

Foxy big hug. So much going on.

I don't actually say or think I'm on a diet. I don't feel like it. It's just how I eat. Luckily I enjoy it that way and feel better too. But I know not everyone is keen.

Love the gloves.

Annianni · 14/10/2013 19:03

Lovely gloves Foxy ((hugs))
Flowers Wine

Sleep, I'll definitely do the eggs again tomorrow.
I felt great today and didn't reach for the biscuits or crisps I did have some chocolate dipped strawberries for pudding tonight though, and they were delicious!

Liberty, about to pm you.

shopafrolic · 14/10/2013 19:08

Foxy I was rushing for bath - sorry. Just to say that it is no wonder you are down in the dumps so please don't be harsh on yourself. I think crying on the school run should be mandatory! We'd all be kinder to each other. DH will be away for a long time, it's a big thing. We will hand hold, and make you laugh, and keep you company (and I'll probably cry with you some days!). Big cuddle.

MarshaBrady · 14/10/2013 19:59

I hear it's going to be very cold again this year. What should I get to wear in the snow on my feet? What do you all wear?

MarshaBrady · 14/10/2013 20:04

Have put some cheapo boots on MNV.

MarshaBrady · 14/10/2013 20:18

Thanks folks. I deleted they were a bit mm Grin.

So snow boots.

QueenCadbury · 14/10/2013 20:20

Oh foxy you poor thing. I still need to check out dates with dh but hopefully I can come round for Wine. Did you see my post about uniqlo thermals? All the bloody things were wrapped so unable to try on.

MarshaBrady · 14/10/2013 20:22

Foxy lovely, come chat to us. Can we find you some nice stuff to look at?

QueenCadbury · 14/10/2013 20:22

marsha when it's really cold/snowy I wear these in black. Very warm and good grip on the ice. Or I wear my hunter willies with boot liners.

Drywhiteplease · 14/10/2013 20:24

Almonds.....years ago I heard Liz Hurley say if she was hungry she'd have a handful of almonds. I thought Hmm but it's actually true! they do fill you up she did not tell me this in person obv Grin
I'm obsessed with natural yogurt with sweetener prob v bad for you and cinnamon, love cinnamon. Throw in blueberries...yum!
I don't eat white stuff....apart from vino of course Wink
I love Lindt 90%......with espresso .

Sleep showed the clip of Flyte to DCs.....DD was nonplussed but DS (nearly 15 and quite into proper music not One Direction ) said he really liked them and that their sound was v current with Beatles overtones Shock ....

Excited because I'm put for dinner Friday and Saturday so new silver shoes will get a good airing (will be channelling my inner Sleep )

Is anyone else absolutely exhausted after the excitement of the fabulous weekend MU?

Mom had a rummage in my lipstick box Tupperware,no label Grin and found MAC Chilli and Verve reds, going to try red this weekend and try to have your lips.

MarshaBrady · 14/10/2013 20:28

Thanks QueenC. They look snuggly. I might go for the cheapest option however - so liners sound good.

Dry yes nearly had to sleep this afternoon, but then did the sr instead.

Listening to Flyte Sleep. I really like it! Very happy.

shopafrolic · 14/10/2013 20:32

Is no-one going to comment on QueenC's mammoth typo???? Grin
for full on snow only
I can almost feel Marsha wincing

MarshaBrady · 14/10/2013 20:33

Get out of town Shop you were all just very polite about my hideous choice Grin.

Snow boots are HARD.

And oh yes big lol at the typo. Arf!

MarshaBrady · 14/10/2013 20:34

I really do want warm feet and that sort of thing is the ticket really.

Drywhiteplease · 14/10/2013 20:37

Grin well spotted Shop.... Really QueenC? !!'mGrin

shopafrolic · 14/10/2013 20:40

Oh and Marsha in case you forgot our chat.... MiC starts tonight. Turn your TV on x

Drywhiteplease · 14/10/2013 20:41

Oh Marsha hope I wasn't too harshSad
I bought these a couple of years ago......pretend I'm a real country woman in them. Mud/snow/rain.....lovely hot/ dry feet. One of my most boring practical purchases ever.....would love these

OP posts:
MarshaBrady · 14/10/2013 20:42

Shop have not forgotten! . Not really! We stream on the Mac. Apple-tastic family. But same difference. Looking forward to a bit of light hearted fluff.

shopafrolic · 14/10/2013 20:43

my wellies

MarshaBrady · 14/10/2013 20:43

Not at all Dry not at all. It's good to get your opinions, but once I realised they weren't great they were offending my eyes too on mnv!
