Quick Wednesday ramblings

Wednesday 30th April 2008

If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!Good afternoon! Just a quick update here today. Diet going fine. Fitness class this morning was a killer. The munchkin’s movement class this afternoon wasn’t a lot better. I’m certainly going to ache tomorrow. Mr H is shattered, and [...]

New day…new outlook

Tuesday 29th April 2008

Hello!
I pulled myself together after writing all that yesterday. Sometimes I just need an outlet to vent and that’s what this blog is for me, I don’t keep a diary/journal other than this and I really didn’t want to take all my frustration out on Mr H when he got home.
I’m having another go at following [...]

Aaaargh!

Monday 28th April 2008

Stop reading here unless you can face a huge whinge/moan…..
I weighed myself this morning…I weigh more now than I did at the start of the year. Back in February I said that I wanted to lose weight for my nephew’s baptism….well that’s on Sunday…and I haven’t. So unless I wear a very padded bra my [...]

One lurgy after another!

Thursday 24th April 2008

No sooner to I start to get over the cold I’ve had, and the munchkin begin to perk up from the cold she’s had, we get to last night and find that Mr H has yet another bug. This time a bit of a tummy one. It’s just been one thing after another with him. [...]

A commute and a half!

Friday 18th April 2008

Mr H’s commute to work today entails leaving home at 7:15 driving to the nearest office (not the one he usually works at) to pick up a colleague, driving on to the airport, parking up, bussing to the check in and then a flight to Dublin before picking up a hire car and driving to a [...]

More on cars etc

Wednesday 16th April 2008

Just a quick follow up to a couple of comments:
Junior Docspot - this is the first time we’re replacing a car without Mr H having written it off! In the past we’ve had so little money that we either bought from family (bad idea - my sister is rather hard on cars!) or sent Dad to [...]

New car!

Monday 14th April 2008

Mr H was browsing the local paper on Saturday morning when he saw a car listed for sale he liked the look of. He decided we’d go and have a look (it had been traded in at one of the local big dealerships).
We had a good look at it and gave it a test drive [...]

Kitchen update

Thursday 10th April 2008

The kitchen sorting is going fairly well, if only I could work out where I want everything to go! Mr H is going to have a very good excuse for not cooking for us….he’s not going to have a clue where I’ve put anything!
I may manage to finish it today, but that depends on the [...]

Vodka + glue = easier job!

Tuesday 8th April 2008

Sticky stuff gone, I didn’t have any surgical spirit (thanks missbliss), however a little vodka rubbed in to it helped a lot. Shame I don’t drink when I’m alone with trhe munchkin as after all that hard work (took me the best part of 30-40 mins of scrubbing) I definitely felt like I deserved a drink [...]

I’m back!

Monday 7th April 2008

I’ve returned to a rather cold Essex and I’m back to blog again…or not!
Posts for the next couple of weeks may be short and sweet. I’ve spent a lot of time reading blogs and writing here over the past couple of months and for the moment the house needs me more! I might manage a quick update [...]
