Quick update

Not much happening really...still feel a bit crappy! I have started doing Atkins....just into my 2nd week! Nearly given up 3 times! But going to stick with it, for a bit, and see if I do feel the benefit's... Get rid of the carb cravings .... mmmm fresh bread! LOL! We shall see! Lost 2lb the first week, though since getting the book, I read I have eaten couple of things I shouldn't have! So starting 'properly' this week!

Mum still happy, dad's flat is on the market, so hoping it sells soon and she gets her share!
Right, only brief as little one wants lunch!

Another month goes by...

And I am back to where I was last time I posted!

I did go see about a decrease, explained how bad I got around totm, and so we decided to decrease to 10mg for 2 weeks then go up to 20mg when I needed them.... so far....not so good! Think I decreased to 10mg for a week then went back upto 20mg! Will give it another go and see how I get on....

Had a run in with a stupid yummy mummy yesterday. On the school run, I parked up and mum got out to get my son while I waited in the car in case anyone wanted me to move (I was blocking a drive, though it only had a camper van in so didn't think they would mind!) I look out the window to see her (with baby seat in arm) mouthing something and looking like thunder....I turn off the radio and wind down the window....'You've HIT my car!!!' ..... ?! ..... At this point I am thinking, how? I havn't felt a thing, I know I got close, so I didn't block 2 drives, but I surly would have felt it?! From my dumbfounded look, she repeats herself and says get out and have a look! I get out feeling stupid, how could I have not known!?! and sure enough my bumber is nose to nose with her number plate.....I am very very confused now....we have a tow bar.....where is it?!!! 'LOOK! move your car and lets see what damage you have done!'.....me scurrying back and moving car as mum and son head back towards us....yummy mummy talks to her daughter (who is in my sons class!!) and then we look....not a scratch! Not a MARK! She has a huge 4x4 and the tow bar had gone underneath it! At some point in my humiliation, I had mentioned I didn't feel a thing and couldn't understand it, and I was sorry, and now, here I was, vindicated, yes, I may have been bumber to bumper, but no damage was done and it wasn't as if I had left the car so she couldn't get out!!! She inspected it, made some comment about how her hubby would have killed her as it is a NEW CAR and next time I should be more careful!!! I scurry off getting my kids into the car, and shout at my son that I don't want to talk, I just want to leave, and scoot off leaving her gloating with friends on the opposite side, who have witnessed the whole sorry affair. I am really mad, my mum makes excuses for her, it's her hormones, she has just had a baby...yes, in January!!!! ARRRRGGGHHHH! I am mad for not standing up more for myself and allowing her to tell me to drive more carefully and bow and scrap saying sorry when I had done nothing wrong! I don't want to go pick him up tonight, but I have just remembered he is out later, got choir practice, so I should not meet her again....until tomorrow. I hate school runs!!!

On the home front, mum is now getting divorced....yes, it's back on! He is sleeping around, admitted it to her, so she has seen sense and is letting go....hurrrrraaaaaahhhhhhh! She is making loads of new friends, and there are a few possible future hubbys out there for her too LOL!

Right, I am off to make some lunch and veg out and catch up on tv....that's all I feel like doing so that's all I am going to do! (Famous last words, will see the mess downstairs and end up cleaning and sorting washing etc etc.....)
