Still not unpacked. Trying to summon the enthusiasm for this week which i had packed full of days out at friends for the girls so now i have to cancel at least two of them thanks to the application of pox germs to Josie. Bah humbug. A number of interesting moments today; Maddy announced she […]

Okay, its a week later than i planned but i just got into my size 18 jeans and did them up!!!!!!!! How pleased am i! 2 stone to go…..

Well that could have been worse by a long chalk. Although if those were my more lucid moments, i dread to think what i said the rest of the day! I definitely told them not to use my “housewife” slip!!!!! Startled by how nice my house looked, kids adorable naturally and i didn’t look as […]
