Ive never seen it anywhere but in Asdas... strange but true! has a nice peppery mayo in it Hope you have a lovely day Carly. Finishing my coffee and packing my walking boots. I ordered a pair of hiking boots last night but using my doc marten boots in the meantime

 

[Karen]

Thanks Jo. X. I have been entirely on track but very busy. We have an unexpected house guest at the moment... an asylum seeker attached to a project that I have worked with. I'm usually a stickler for professional conduct but officially, the lad is 23 and therefore not in my working remit as a youth worker. Plus, I'm going to a new job soon! I know him well, know he is very vulnerable and he became homeless yesterday. So, had to take him home! We went to a refugee week party last night with the kids and had a great time. I ate but it was all I'd had all day. Will point properly now. It's my daughters birthday tomorrow and we are having a bbq. I'm not climbing any more tors until Friday but will try to get in a few walks. I bought proper walking sandals yesterday and am being fitted for hiking boots on Tuesday. I've got a hectic week coming now! Will post menu later. Xxx

Life sounds very busy for you Karen. Massive 'well done' on the walking and hiking, it really is win/win... doing something you enjoy that's good for you too. I hope your daughter has a good birthday tomorrow, enjoy the bbq.

Hi Jo and Carly and Good Morning Minis! xxxx

Well... today we celebrate our girls birthday (even though it isnt until tomorrow). We just presented her with her BMX and she is now riding around the street like a lunatic While she does that we are going to draw up a shopping list and decorate the house in balloons. Usually we would do it the night before when she goes to bed but our house guest was tired and is using the sofa so we let him go to sleep. We are starting the BBQ from 2-3pm but I am going to be really careful with what I eat. If I can lose 2 lbs this week, it means I will have less than 100lbs to lose! If i managed to lose 3lbs that would mean I get my 10%. HOWEVER! I lost so much last week i know it is quite likely that this week will be a difficult week. Also, I have only walked once this week and wont get a chance to do a big walk again until Friday.

Today is going to be interesting. My dad has gone utterly mental about our house guest. Although my dad is an Irish immigrant and 6 of his siblings are too... he seems to get his 'daily mail' head on and thinking the most stupid and untrue things about asylum seekers. the fact he is so racist is a huge barrier. Hes a lovely man but has some serious tunnel vision about some things. So... yesterday S (i'll call our guest by his initial) met my parents, went to shake dads hand and you could see he didn't want to. Worse, you could tell S noticed. My parents also took great effort to pounce on my husband when he went over there yesterday to build our girls bike. They made their feelings clear about how we are endangering our children with dirty foreigners. That kind of disgusting thinking REALLY gets my back up... especially when it comes from another immigrant. My dad came here for economic reasons.. the guys I am talking about turn up with bullet wounds and in utter fear for their lives. im getting quite peeved just typing about it! anyways... my daughter has invited 2 more refugees to her birthday as she is close to them and wanted them at her birthday. I agreed because I am quite close to them and they will be great company for S today. I can see the communication is difficult for him and he is feeling a bit isolated My dad better behave!

Well... I have quite a bit to do guys so will try to behave myself. Hopefully I can be strong in the face of crisps and birthday cake I will fiddle my menu as the day goes on. I get 1 less daily now. Still, 34 is quite a lot and I have only used 3 weeklies so far this week.

Have a lovely Sunday guys xxxx
