I WANT SOMETHING SWEET...

I WANT SOMETHING SWEET...

Last night I said to Stew "I feel like something sweet"... so he said "OK, lets go to the supermarket"  ... so we did.

ABOVE:  ummmm... we got all this!  AND three tubs of ice cream... and chocolate sauce.   We DIDN'T eat it all last night though!

Now that I've had my 'sugar fix' I feel I can go without any for at least a week! 

It's the last full day with Joshua and Damien, they go home tomorrow.  They have been good boys... noisy... but that's normal eh? 

I feel I am hanging out for Monday... by the skin of my teeth!  I NEED to get my house tidy again!  Mess drives me crazy... shit I'm sure I've said that before!
*sigh*

Decided on a change with me DIET too.  I'm going to 'dish' up my 'normal' evening meal... and then chop it in half ... and only eat half.  I am POSITIVE I'm eating too much at dinner time.  POSITIVE.

I don't 'snack' during the day... so that's not the problem.  I don't have breakfast either.  But I've never been hungry at breakfast time.   So obviously I am OVEREATING at lunch and dinnertime.  I am going to concentrate on portion control.  (YES I know.. all those lollies... but we hardly ever do that I swear)

AND GET SOME EXERCISE.   I keep meaning to get back into a routine with the exercise.  But every time I start I get all hot and bothered... and I just HATE being hot ... 4 years of HOT FLUSHES/FLASHES all the time has taken all my tolerance of heat away.  I CAN'T STAND IT anymore.  But I just have to get over it eh?  OH and now that it's getting cooler it might be easier too.

OOOOH ... Wills and Kate get married today!  I am taking over the big TV tonight and my eyes will be glued to the screen!  I am dying to see her dress....

ONWARD...

Taking the kids to the local pool today, most likely this morning.... want to get them nice and tired so they are QUIET this afternoon?  Well... I live in hope.

My condolences to anyone affected by the terrible tornadoes in the USA.  Mother nature can be an awesome force.

ANON:  thank you... and I hope you are having a much better day today?

Just back from the pool... the kids had a blast... Steve got in with them and was my 'look out boy'... it was so nice to not have to worry about them in the pool.
AND... I had expected the pool to be totally CROWDED... being the school holidays and all.. but its wasn't!  There was only a handful of kids there!  Which made it so much easier to keep track of our lot.

I'm going to download all the photos I took now... back soon...

ABOVE: a tiny selection from the 425 photos I took! The lighting was crap, and I didn't get very many really good photos at all.  Quite disappointed about that... but I'm sure I'll get the hang of my camera eventually.

Kids are now watching a kiddy movie "How to Tame Your Dragon" and eating lollies.  So they are QUIET!  hee hee.

I've spent the afternoon relaxing.... and doing washing.  Stew came home early from work tonight... which was nice.

End of Day:  and I'm settled in front of the telly... eagerly awaiting the 'Wedding of the Year".  Stew and Steve are watching sport on the TV in the Family Room.  Kids... in bed... yaaa.  Oh and I have a tipple in front of me too.  BLISS.
DIET: pfffffffft.
nite nite.
