Blondes - how's your mum doing?

OP posts:
Blondeshavemorefun · 17/04/2010 21:05

what did you eat?

I just made my homemade mini pizzas for tea

Blondeshavemorefun · 17/04/2010 21:06

my mum is Doing ok. Still hooked to heart monitor and rate still very high but getting slower. Now has very low blood pressure which has baffled doctors

least she is on the right place

thx for asking x

bebejones · 17/04/2010 21:47

Had Tiger prawn fajitas, seriously enough for 2 in one portion! DD even ate some of it even though it was quite spicy! Didn't put the cheese on or sour cream. Did have a Strawberry Daquari too, but figured it's mainly fruit and ice I feel so full and we ate 3 hours ago!

Glad your mum is showing some signs of improvement. Hope her BP stabilises soon & like you said she is in the right place!

Just wanted to post very quickly to wish blondes mum a speedy recovery, my dad had a irregular heartbeat last year and I was so upset when he went into hospital. Hope you and dh are ok.

Keep up he good work girlies.

I have had a hectic few days at work being a travel agent and the volcanic ash nightmare.

Blondeshavemorefun · 17/04/2010 22:29

Tiger prawns. Oh how yummy!!!!!!

Blondes loves prawns. The bigger the better. Just like dh sausage lol

sure holiday companys and travel agents are having a nightmare at the moment

sorry to hear about your dad. Hope he is ok
now x

pbm hope you are ok in hospital x

RatherBeOnThePiste · 18/04/2010 10:37

Blondes I hope your mum is on the mend.

It's DDs birthday today. She is 13. Woooohooooo!!!!

DH was never going to be here today but was supposed to be back tomorrow and now he is stuck in Australia. (Cheesed off emoticon). There are no flghts from Sydney until after Tuesday and obviously that is only provisional. Because he wasn't going to be here today we have arranged to go away next weekend and go to Alton towers. That is now in jeopardy.

When the children were little we used to celebrate birthdays when he was here but now they KNOW when the actual day is!!

Anyway am weighing in today because going out for dinner with children later, and I have stayed the same. Am not surprised as am not as busy as I normally am but back to work tomorrow on my bike!

Good luck all!

Blondeshavemorefun · 18/04/2010 10:47

piste, happy birthday to your dd - she is now a teenager ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

well done for sts, its hard when kids on holidays so roll on next week when back at school and im really going to try and stay within my points, tho bloody hard with dh and now mum

spoke to mum earlier and she is ok, still heart very high but coming down and said she didnt sleep last night as a talker in next door bed and talks in his sleep!!!

seeing her at 3pm as dont allow visitors sun am - wtf - its the one day that people can do as not working! grrrrr

RatherBeOnThePiste · 18/04/2010 10:47

Bloody hell DH has been told his flight will be 2nd May.

Blondeshavemorefun · 18/04/2010 11:11

OMG thats terrible

GettinTrimmer · 18/04/2010 11:50

Bloody hell Piste. Will he stay in the same hotel?

blondes glad your mum is comfortable. When will she be able to go home?

When you're on next Blondes, could you link a ww points website with basic points if not too much trouble to do so? I seem to have lost all my stuff.

I've had a note from the ww lady (I joined last november and somehow couldn't commit) to say free membership and I heard on telly it is £2.99 per meeting. Toying with the idea of going back.

GettinTrimmer · 18/04/2010 11:51

And happy birthday to your dd.

Well done also for sts. Has been difficult with easter eggs around!

Blondeshavemorefun · 18/04/2010 12:44

Tbh nit sure there is a website for basic foods unless you are a member which I'm not

eating out guide

I brought my books off eBay but mainly use my points calculater. That's fab!!!

But ask if want to know points fir something. I know most of them

Piste happy belated birthday to your dd does it get easier as they get bigger my dd is 3 going on 20 .

Jodie how are you getting on with the dress ?

Hi to everyone else.

bebejones · 19/04/2010 09:24

Piste - that is so awful for you all, your poor DH, that is such a long time to wait!

I had a perfect day yesterday. Spent the morning at PIL & DD and her cousins spent 2 hours playing in their huge garden. I even got on the trampoline with DD, which I wouldn't have been able to do a year ago! Do have bruises all down one arm thanks to DH pushing me over onto it though!! Made cheats spag carbonara for dinner which was yum & only 430 cals! Would be less if I had had turkey rashers instead of normal bacon!

So weigh in...I STS! Which is more than I deserve after all the sweets I ate last week & the meal out Saturday! Thankfully DH & DD have finished off the jelly babies now so no more temptation!!
