Crisis!
After finding a huge spider in the bedroom a week or so ago that I managed to catch and remove, I've been having nightmares cos I'm terrified of them.
Yesterday I bought some sticky spider traps to put down, thinking they wouldn't catch owt, therefore no spiders about, and I can sleep easy again...
Guess what I found when I came to bed?
My skin is crawling and I'm convinced my bedroom is full of the horrible things
Not happy!

Well done on weight loss this week Mandy. I've lost another 1lb - no matter what I do it only seems to be a 1lb a week but not complaining.

I had a "friend" like yours - she was always cancelling but always expected me to phone to arrange another outing. The last time she did this, December 2011, I told her to arrange something when it was convenient; she never has. We still speak and she says "oh we must arrange something"...... her loss not mine.

Well done in your loss, that's brilliant!

I feel your pain, I hate elders. Horrible aren't they! X

 

[clb1953]

Mandy, spiders don't really bother me but hate daddy longlegs and moths!!!! Hope you've caught all the little (or big) blighters

Hi Christine! Well done on your loss, any pound in the right direction is very welcome, and if you're not suffering and hungry in the mean time its a bonus.
I totally agree with you where friends are concerned, I've come to the conclusion that if a 'friend' is making you feel worse not better, it's time to call it a day. I'll not fall out with her, just not put anymore effort in. Life is too short!

Spiders!!! My nephews work mate was working in a ladies house very recently and found conkers in one coner of each room. She says that they are there because spiders don`t like conkers and therefore they stay away.

I thought as the conker season is upon us you might be ableto give a try. Then you can dream about conkers. lol

Hi Mandy.

I thought I'd drop by and lend you a bit of support. You look as though you've got SW sussed and have managed to adapt it to suit your tastes.

We're the same height and aiming for about the same target weight. Which one of us will get there first? No race though - I don't do well if I put myself under any sort of pressure to try and achieve a certain loss by a certain time!

I notice you have supernoodles sometimes. Which ones are these and are they Syn free or low Syn? They might be something my OH can manage to make for his lunch - he's capable of putting the kettle on and that's about it!

 

[Clapper&Ham]

Orange definitely, though green is my favourite colour, just hate the beans.
I'm baked all the way
