And in other events…

I was dreading yesterday…

We were all scheduled for a health check at work, just a wellbeing check, BP, cholesterol, BMI, Sugar levels, etc. and I was dreading it… What where they going to say? With my Pops family history, the cholesterol was a worry, and the general weight issue. We have had several instances of breast cancer in my Pops side too,a small that was again a worry.

But I was fretting unnecessarily! Apparently I am in good nick! BMI healthy, BP perfect, cholesterol at 4.95 so it’s unlikely that I have the hereditary gene…all the other tests were normal.. Phew!

But, there’s always a but… My waist measurement puts me in a higher risk category of things like heart conditions, diabetes, cancers etc. The nurse did stress that I was not to worry. I am not overweight at all, but to try and trim 2-3 inches off my waist. And what did she suggest? Hula hooping for 10 minutes a day! Oh to have a spare 10 minutes to start with… And oh, there is the fact that I can’t hula to save my life!!! Maybe I’ll have to dust off the wifi fit hula game then!!

So armed with that knowledge, I ate pizza, and ice cream too! ☺️😁

And today, I was a total durr brain (yes that is a technical term, didn’t you know?!) went grocery shopping,many it usually costs me between £120-150 a week. It was nearly £200 this time, eek! But there were important bits n bobs that needed replenishing so, you know, these things happen.

Anywho, I got home and started unpacking. Got to the last bag and realised something was missing… Actually not something, but lots of things! In fact a who,e bag full probably about £30 of items! I checked the car, the kitchen, everywhere it could have been then it dawned on me. I had hung one bag in the end it the shopping trolley, I bet I forgot it there. No hope. Someone got a bag of shopping for free! Damn!

I called the local Asda, and the woman said “I know. And it was handed in!” So I rushed back there to get it. I couldn’t believe it! Honesty is still around in this world! Ok so I had to rush around, make two trips, that was my fault, but a huge thank you to the couple who handed my shopping bag in!

And we’ve had a lovely evening with Hubby Dearest’s niece who came for dinner, and exhausted the children too!  So they’re asleep, and I’m ready for bed now too! Kiddies Karate grading tomorrow! 

Sleep tight folks!

I survived!!!!!!!!

Back from shopping and I’m still in one piece!
Pre birthday girl is happy, she came back with her new rainbow tiger bear, and another gift from our friends who we were meeting!
We ate at Giraffe, at her request, yet she was the only one to not eat most of her food! Though the Krispy Kreme doughnut for pudding seemed to dissapear with alarming speed!!

Lil Man excelled himself… Not good…
He wanted this secret spy pen, it writes with invisible ink and shows up with an ultra violet light. We get home and he wrote on the cupboard!!! WTH??!!
Then I shone the light and found this on his trouser leg too!

She’s got her birthday treat from Build a bear!

Day Four of the Holidays!

Yesterday was fairly uneventful, in the grand scheme of things…
I managed to get the Lil Princess’s cake ordered for Friday, make yummy pancakes, but no homework.. The lurgy proved too much for the Lil Princess, who languished in my bed most of the day!

So for today the plans are,
Get off my butt, and stop reading blogs!
Shower and get ready!
Take kids out to the local shopping mall, we are meeting their friends for lunch there, pre birthday treat for the Lil Princess!
Pop in to the In-Laws
Watch the 30th birthday live Eastenders special!!

Have a lovely Thursday everyone!!!!

We’re back!

So, date night been n gone!

Yes we went shopping… No, bought nothing for ourselves but two bags of things for the kids.

Cinema, yes, The Woman In Black-Angel Of Darkness definitely a no kids zone! We even splashed out and got the gallery seats, so a huge pile of snacks and comfy seats, what could be better?
(Films wasn’t all that though!)

Dinner, ERM, pass! Was so full from previously mentioned snacks, we wandered around the complex trying to decide, but neither if us was hungry enough to eat…

So homeward bound we still ended up at my in laws to see the kids one last time before bed!

So an evening, child free, theoretically, but they still ended up in there with us one way or another!!!
