Well.. I'm totally wiped out and just having my scrummy 6oz of chicken and salad for my dinner and boy am I loving 790! Off to the motorbike club tonight, but am supposed to be baking for church and delivering cakes tomorrow.. so... think I will only go tonight for a couple of hours tonight , tops then home for early spearly night and up with the sparrows and bake for a couple of hours, then go to work, then dash home and decorate said baking and then go and get waxed and plucked, then decorate some more (cakes that is) , plus I have to plan what food to get for the rally weekend - although there is a mega Tesco in Scarborough I can go to Friday... THEN I have to do washing and pack for the weekend and THEN (at 9.30pm) go and pick Zoe up from Hatfield. Eeek!! I need more hours in the day!!

Today was all I expected and more (loads to think about and weigh up etc and much number crunching to be done too) and I don't want to 'jinx' anything by being premature so I'm really sorry but you will have to wait for my news - I did say it would be a few days... and I'm off to the rally Friday (can't wait!) I have a very important call to make - probably can't make it til tomorrow now... and that will have implications too... so, forget I said owt and I'll just continue to blat my way into next week! lol

Did I mention that S came 'round? I was supposed to email him and I haven't yet... lol... hmmm... what does that tell me? Mind you... not had any time either!!

RIght... loo is beckoning BIG time as stomach is having an eppy now its full of food again! MUFFIN time!! :D :D :D :D

When I finish the plans... I'm going to miss my muffins!! lol
 
glad the day went well, sounds exciting, but with all things its the planning that is important, so take your time & make sure you get it right

I'm also proud of myself for havng caught up on your diary at last!

Aww, thanks Jane and well done on catching up! You've done better than me... lol... I'm so far behind on my diary!

So...

Last night.. lol

Went to bike club and had a brilliant time - forgot to come home early, lol. Got in and started baking - suffice it to say, 64 fairy cakes later (and not a flamin crumb touched my lips!) and bed by 2am.

Up at around 8, cakes all decorated now, vac'd kitchen, 1 load of washing hanging on airer, another in the machine, choc orange muffin duly scoffed (washed down with my usual pints of water, Asda sugar free appleade, and Coke Zero), and quick hop on here before heading (an hour late but they owe me bazillions) into work for a brief time to pick up post etc.

BUT.... BIG NEWS!!
I BOOKED MY TANDEM SKYDIVE!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

I'm Sooooooooooooooooooo excited!!!!!!! I'll know the date by next week as they have to confirm with airfield.

Because I'm not supersticious I plumped for Saturday 13th October as my preferred date or the 20th (Zoe's Birthday) as my second choice.

I can't believe it's going to happen so.... if ANYONE wants to sponsor me please PM me and I'll let you know where to send cheques (made payable to my chosen charity - NCH)... and I would LOVE to be able to raise just a bit more than I have got so far.....

The 'jump' takes place in Peterborough. I can't wait!!! :D :D :D :D :D
 
Found myself in floods of tears this lunchtime in the changing room of 'Select'. Couldn't stop for ages - had to ring my Sarah to tell her... I was wearing size 10 jeans... all of a sudden I had this rush of emotion and was a sobbing wreck.

I think maybe it's beginning to sink in a bit.....
 
OMFG size 10 that is bloody amazing Jennie, I am sure when I get to that stage I will be exactly the same.....!
Wow the skydive is now a reality woo hoooo
 
Well done darling..... if anyone deserves it you do!!!

Hopefully this time next year i'll be sobbing too :D:D:D:D

love xxxxxxxxx

lol, I can't quite get my head 'round it to be honest... I showed Zoe the label last night (this morning) when we got home... you will be flying high when you get down there sweetheart - I never intended to be nor expected to be this size - ever... never have been (prob was when I was about 6 years old)...

Well done darling..... if anyone deserves it you do!!!

Hopefully this time next year i'll be sobbing too :D:D:D:D

love xxxxxxxxx
Aww, thanks Gen... it's a weird kind of 'moment'
 
Right, I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO excited...and I just can't hide it......i'm about to lose control and I think I like it.... (hee hee hee - singing away already this morning!!).... I got Zoe last night and we went to Tesco on the way home and were both in a mad mood and ended up chasing each other around the fruit and veg section having a 'tesco coolbag' fight (similar to pillow but much more fun when ducking behind stacks of spuds and onions!!)

She's as hyped as I am about going to the Rally and when I arrived to fetch her, her boss and I were chatting and she asked where we were going and then exclaimed - "wow, a motorbike rally! you're the coolest mum!" LMAO

Having exhausted ourselves messing around in Tesco (and deciding to splash out in a couple of cds for the long journey ahead today) we set off home... 2 junctions later and Zoe remembered she'd forgotten some fudge she's made especially to give everyone so... despite it already being midnight, we turned around.. lol... got lost... got found... fetched fudge and went home! We put on the cds and danced and sang all the way along the A1, A14 and A45 until at last we were on our drive.

By this time I was shattered and, her 1st load of washing in the machine and I headed for bed. Slept great but woke at 7 and haven't packed yet... want to be on the road by 9ish as it's about 4 hours to Filey from here... and to be honest, I just want to get there, get all unloaded and settled in and CHILL out..

Zoe sent me the loveliest text yesterday morning... it simply read "I am so excited. A whole 4 days chilling out with my mum in a lush caravan. Can't wait. Love you loads xxxxxxx" :D :D

We're going to have such a great time, I can tell.

I'm sitting here in my nightshirt wondering what to do first... already got a load of her washing in the tumble drier (no way it'll be dry in time otherwise), washing up is done... and I haven't packed a stitch of clothing yet...so... am doing what I do best (well, perhaps second best :giggle: :giggle:;) ) and writing a list! lol

Clothes, food, George Foreman Grill, boot full of coke zero and Asda sugar free appleade, CD packs, Husks, Fibre89, ramekins, my mug I have my soup in, kebab skewers, tupperware tubs, foil, cling film, washing up liquid, towels, disposable BBQs.... so the list continues... then of course there are sub-headings...

Ie... Toiletries... Clothes (OMG WHAT AM I GOING TO PACK!!!!!!) it's freaking 4 days, 3 nights, bike rides out (so might get wet and cold so will need extra layers for that - hope mate brings spare thermals for me!!)....BIKE gear... ooooh I get to wear me leather trousers ALL DAY and no one will bat an eye! :rotflmao: :giggle:... shoes!! Boots... trainers... hair stuff... flippin heck... am going to need a trailer!! Well, at least I don't need to worry about 'posh' gear as its a rally - it's lovely and casual ALL the time (including evenings - although I am toying with the idea of wearing that little black bustier thing with my new black jeans on the Saturday night.... will pack it 'just in case'... ) lol

In the car Zoe decided that one of the songs on the new cd is MY song... Diana Ross "I'm coming out"... google the lyrics and you'll see why ;) and no, I'm NOT gay! lol

We also decided to have OUR Rally song... and that's "I'm every woman" lol

Lord, I LOVE her!! :D :D :D

So... best get on with it or will be late!! Zoe and her fella are asleep - he finished work at 3am.. so the deal is, I wake her half an hour before we leave... She'll just shove all her stuff in a bag and throw it onthe back seat... lol lol

We sat and looked through old photos of previous rallies last night, that album's coming with us... I can't wait to see everyone tonight, I'm a real mixture of excited and nervous all at once... will be glad to get to tomorrow when the way I look will have been accepted as the new 'norm'... :D This rally is the first I've been to since my ex left me... so not really talked about that with them all... hopefully won't have to this time.. and that's sort of why I stopped going... because I knew it would be incredibly hard... plus I was a mess (mentally. physically, oh in every way... ) ...have I really changed..? lmao prolly not... lol

Right... here we go, here we go, here we go....
 
OOOOOOOOOO Jennie hope you have a brilliant time hun........!
Your happiness is shining through your posts now and its lovely to read.
 
It's all happening now for you.
The size 10! You definately get through the sizes quicker at the smaller sizes. I think (KD know about all this) that the size intervals get greater in the larger sizes.
love the story of the pillow fight in Tescos. you child you! Anyone come &tell yuo to behave?

Have a lovely W/E.
Sky dive...how do we get to see pics when you do it?
 
Have a fantastic time Jen
I just realised - My mate is on a rally this weekend - wouldnt it be weird if its the same one?!!!
(They are the 'Black sheep family.... cos her OH drinks it :D - her son is the Lamb:p)

Have fun

Wow babes what a weekend you have ahead of you!!! Your relationship with Zoe is soooo wonderful and I agree you are the coolest mum!!! Fancy adopting me? lol

Have a truly wicked time in every sense of the word and i look forward to reading all about it next week!!!!!!

Hope the weather holds out for you.

Lots of luv,
 
Darling, I have tears in my eyes reading your post because I love to see you so happy, because it's all you deserve and more!

Wish I was with you, missing you loads at the moment.

Looking forward to the update next week xxx
 
Hiya honey

Hope you had a fantastic weekend, absolutely made up about you getting into your size 10 jeans, FANTASTIC, I did exactly the same as you, burst into tears the first time I got a pair of size 10's over my bum and done up, it's a wonderful, amazing feeling - enjoy every single minute of it.

Look forward to hearing all about your weekend - hope you're not too shattered!

Whats this size 10 thingy - thought that Size Zero was the fashion LOL

Ignore (I know you have anyway) the male ignorance - as a guy who revels in sizist achievements of a shrinking nature, I can maybe appreciate slightly how great an achievement and feeling that must have been

great isn't it !!
