Surfhunny's Countdown to Florida

[lyndzi76]

I'm addicted to twitter aswell. I got hooked when I'm a celebrity...get me out of here was on. x x

 

[Surfhunny]

Did u get my message Sal ? New job ? What have I missed? X

Its not me with the new job, it's Nikki, you haven't missed anything.

 

[Surfhunny]

Man I'm really not looking forward to getting up for work tomorrow I'm working 8-8 too so a nice long welcome back to work :cry: On the plus side, I've just spend a lovely couple of hours watching Hawaii Five-0 and the gorgeous Alex O!! Now if I could find a man like that I'd be a very happy girl. Even a man half as hot, even just a man.... Oh Andy about that drink.... NOPE the last thing I need it to be seeing a Delboy with a drink problem. Let me distract myself with Alex O again...I'm in love

God Nikki I'd love it if your prediction for me is correct. Even just the first half for now lol.

I'm so cold, I'm guessing I'm firmly in ketosis. I've got the heating and the fire on. I'm wrapped in my blanket with arms and have my gloves on. I look gorgeous lol.

Happy New Year, Sal!

Hi Sal --

I am glad that you did not lower your standards. A wise woman once told me to NEVER go out with someone that you would never consider marrying. I think that makes sense... you runt he risk of getting pulled into something that you really do not want.

i'm dulling the pain with booze. i hate new year. i get massively depressed.

I get depressed over Christmas... and New Years' is like using the "get out of jail free card". You get to move on... clean up, clear upand start anew. The days are now getting longer (yay!); you are no longer the only person you know on a diet (lol) -- but are most likely to be the most successful with it! (lol)...

this year i'm mega depressed as i've got a job and am back to work tuesday.... massive shock tbh!

You wil manage. It'll all work out one way or another -- it is the thining about it that causes stress.

last year i was free to do whatever.... just my mum in JC to think about. i was lucky not working.

It worked out -- that was what was best at that time and this will be now.

i'm just scared. i've not worked since 1 month pre-dude. march 2009. i hoe i've still got it. just don't want to be scared, hope i have still got the teaching magic, don't want to let anyone down.

The fact that you care and want to do a good job already makes you a better than many (sadly).

thing is.... hubby was mega stressed about not getting a contract. we're a bit in debt due to caravan at haven for the past 3 years. we owed money on it, decided to use mortgage to pay it off so we could sell it, then there's the past 2 years van site fees on my credit card. so he was stressed about money. so i decided to go back to work and finish at them gym etc. now it's looking positive to him getting this contract and if he does they'll get a bonus which will almost clear the debt.

So, this will be a bonus or a safety net -- but either way it'll be good for you personally.

also he'll be needing to go to work early and he can't when i'm working. he'll drop off dude but not ems.

Didn't you say there was a breakfast club for Ems?

i'm stressed as i can see it all falling to me to organise and everything i'm doing now will fall to me.

It always does -- it bites to be the female.

he's also talking of putting my full wage straight into my teaching pension.

That's thoughtful, but tell him that you want the have that cushion. Make is part -- and lot of pension plans limit you to a percentage of salary anyway. it might not be possible to do that.

which sorts of makes teaching for extra money pointless. also dude's nursery will go up until april. term times are different. argh!!!!!!!

But so soon he will be in reception -- time flies.

didn't mean to turn this into a massive post. i'm kind of depressed and stressed and worried and you're one of my bestest friends online that i know will just sort me out.

next new year i think shanny should come here and we should meet up somewhere neutral in the middle so we're not 'alone'.

This sounds like a lot of fun... a New Years' Minis Meet! Maybe Shanny will have her new place and she can host!

ijust wish i wasn't returning to work so early. hubby just keeps barking on about how lucky i am getting this job so easily and quickly as jobs are hard to come by so easily and quickly.

It was meant to be.

this time last year i was on anti-depresseants. i forgot them in august when i went on hol for a week and i just haven't started them back again.

now thinking maybe i do need them.

I think Sal's advice on wating before getting back on meds is sound. You are going to be so busy and fulfilled that I think you will not meds.

Man I'm really not looking forward to getting up for work tomorrow I'm working 8-8 too so a nice long welcome back to work :cry:

Hopefully it will make sticking to your SSing easier as you won't have time to eat. Just remember your bars or tetras.

God Nikki I'd love it if your prediction for me is correct. Even just the first half for now lol.

I am hoping the best for you, too.

I'm so cold, I'm guessing I'm firmly in ketosis. I've got the heating and the fire on. I'm wrapped in my blanket with arms and have my gloves on. I look gorgeous lol.

Like a gorgrous homeless woman!

I hope you get some sleep tonight. I have laid off the caffine since noonish.

[great things]

[cornishkez]

There doesn't seem to be a clear cut answer out there, does there? But I have my suspicions! lol

I have very strong suspicions but in living in a state of denial!!

 

[Surfhunny]

Omg I'm watching Obese: A Year to Save My Life on Sky 1, and the trainer Jessie is HOT!!! I don't know what's wrong with me all of a sudden, I've got raging hormones or something!

 

[Surfhunny]

I really am the stupidest person I know!!! I've had quite a few sleepless nights lately so I got some Sominex tablets to help me sleep. They worked a treat, I had a lovely nights sleep but woke up this morning covered in itchy urticaria I had no clue what caused it, went to work looking like a freak, spent all day explaining it's an allergic reaction, figured it was to the Sominex.

I went to my mums on way home and told her I was now allergic to sleeping tablets. She looked at me like I was stupid (which I am) and said she couldn't believe I'd taken them, the main ingredient in the is antihistamine, the very thing I'm allergic to!! It never occurred to me to check! But I'll be checking EVERYTHING now!!! Jeez I'm so itchy :cry: but at least I know why and that it's not a new allergy!

Why do I have to be allergic to the very thing thats supposed to stop allergic reactions? Why??? Another trip to the drs for me at some point then.

 

[lyndzi76]

I've been struggling to sleep aswell it must be the diet affecting me. I may look at getting myself some of these.

Sorry your all itchy, atleast they are calorie free!

You caught up on USA Biggest Loser?

I'm like this for the first week or so, but then go back to normal. I haven't had chance to watch USBL yet but plan to watch it tomorrow night. Those tablets are great (if you're not allergic to them lol) I had no problems getting to sleep last night, but it's not worth looking like the elephant man for me.

 

[lyndzi76]

I never struggled with sleep last time so may give it another day our two.
Are they off the shelf tablets?

 

[Surfhunny]

Yeah you can get herbal ones in a green packet and medicinal ones in pale blue packet. If I can't sleep again tonight I might have to investigate the herbal ones

 

[cornishkez]

Oh dear Surf, you do make me laugh! With you of course, not at you

I've woken up at 4am each day so far?! Not liking that much?!

I laugh at myself so I wouldn't worry. It never fails to amaze me how dim I actually am sometimes! No common sense at all!!

 

[great things]

i'm totally nieve too as well as being totally dim.

i have had 0 movement on the scale. BUT i've not been since sunday and i personally think my tummy looks big and dodgy. also my water intake these past 3 days has just been rubbish. i'm not drinking much at school incase i need the loo as you can't just up sticks and 'go'. my trousers are digging in me a bit.

 

[MinnieMel]

Hi Sal,

I'll post the package to you tomorrow -- I had to wait all day for the boiler guy. Sorry. It seems to working now (thank goodness -- I need a shower).

gotta love bob but you got wonder if he's as gay as they come! still love him. he's our bob!

If he is... I wanna be the one to "turn him".

That was the hardest thing when I was working at the school -- if I was trying to drink my 3 litres, I could not just go to the loo. UGH!

Thanks goodness you are only working three days a week, atm.

[Surfhunny]

Aw thank you Mel you're a star. My boiler is playing up too, mine will give me scalding hot water for five minutes then it runs freezing cold, I have to turn the tap off and put it back on again to get more hot water, it's a right pain. It's either a very quick show or mess on filling the bath by turning the tap on and off. Getting people's recommendations for plumbers at the moment.
