Nightmare of a Day!!

I am having an awful day today....and I mean awful! Won't bore you with everything that's happened to me today but the main thing is my laptop has died on me! I'm using Lewis's computer at the moment which means I can get into my e-mail now and Blogger but can't do alot else until I've sorted it all out. Got an Engineer to look at my laptop and he's pronounced it dead so I thought, being the devious bitch I am!, that's OK, can't afford a new one but I'll tip a cup of hot sweet coffee over it and claim on the contents insurance, until that is, I read the small print in the policy which says, PCs are covered for accidental damage but not laptops!!! I told myself things couldn't get much worse today until some stupid woman nearly crashed straight into us on the way to Tae Kwon-do!!
Basically, this was not meant to be a moan just to let everyone know that I am here but won't be able to post until I sort something out.
On a postive note, I have received some lovely post over the last couple of days from Annie and Fran - thank you ladies! and a big thank you to Jo for the gorgeous card and chocolates (gonna have to save them for when I finish my diet!).
Will be sorting out your images Fran as my stamps arrived today....just wish I had time to play with them.
Anyway, I will keep smiling and will be back soon!

Oh, how I feel for you. I did have a minor crash last week (not my fault -some young guys going too fast in theri builder's truck) on the way to a good friend's funeral (only 56and my son has BIG nosebleeds from time to time, often at night and woke me up two night's running with blood all over the bedding: so change the beds at some ungodly hour... he's a sweetie tho'0, 15 and always soooooo apologetic -but it doesn't lead for a smooth running stress free life, does it?!
Keep your pecker up!

My Surprise For Tony!!

As promised, I'm back to let you in on my surprise for Tony tomorrow! Don't know where to start with this but maybe a little personal history first. When I married Tony in 1996 I was a UK size 14. I've always had to watch my weight and never been naturally thin but was never vastly overweight either. In March 1997 I fell pregnant with Lewis and that's when the trouble started.....the weight piled on and after he was born as well because I wasn't eating properly and just grabbing food out of the fridge when I had a spare five minutes.....oh, the joys of being a new Mum! Then I got pregnant again with Sam and even though I didn't gain much more weight during pregnancy, I made up for it afterwards! Am I boring you yet! It took me ten years and many failed diets to finally get serious about losing weight so I started my diet in January this year and this is the evidence....... please do not show the first photo to small children or animals as it may scare them !!!!!
