    Woke up this morning and was brushing my hair and i noticed that i have a dimple (or dent) at the side of the bone of my eye, its about 2cm by 1cm and i have never seen it there before, i dont have the indentation the other side (ifs fatty) really weird :(...

    looked it up on the net and cant find out what it is, saw an image like mine but she had botox and it was a reaction from that, the only thing i can put it down to is weight loss. not sure if its good or bad..


    Got a box of goodies from my mom she sent me a book, a first aid kit a mini book lamp (so retro) and 60 pounds sterling for my birthday later on in the week.

    My boys had their school sports day today, thats where i spent most of my morning.

    My eldest sons school report came and said he is brilliant at irish, everything else was very good.

    Got 2 corsets come in the post too this morning. what a busy bee i have been....

    Been a long while since I posted in here. My new WiMax isn't set up yet so for now I have to be content with strangers peering over my shoulder in the local cybercafe.
    Big news, peeps!
    I hit my first target at Motivation last week: I'm officially one stone lighter! I can now fit back into the size 22 Small jeans I last wore to my 21st birthday party. Still have a way to go before I reach my long term target of 11stone 6lbs but it's working!


    Fantastic, keep up the good work.

    I feel crappy since yesterday...it feels just like either before my period, or when I got pregnant!

    Hopefully I'm not sprogged so soon.... eeep!

    Join me in the status of: "Not pregnant. Probably."

    It's fun here. I'm too lazy to test but I probably will have to tomorrow if I want to give blood. Boo! *bloodypharmacytakingmymoney*

    There's enough shíte in the house as it is without holding onto stuff that will never get used, should never have opened my mouth and brought them to the charity shop myself.
    I have spent so much of my life trying to smuggle stuff out of the house to throw out. I begged for years for our house to get a skip, to bin all the crap in one go but wasn't allowed.. just in case things might come in handy at some stage! :mad:

    I'm surprised the ceiling hasn't caved in with all the crap in my mother's attic. :rolleyes:

    I'm bored mindless, think I should do some baking or something... but that takes moving to Tesco to get baking stuff... Two days in a row off with no plans driving me mental!

    I'll babysit.. it means being in France, right? :D
    For bed and board I will mind Baby Pancake and get up in the night when he cries, because I'm a night owl anyway.

    I will eat cheese and drink wine and wear a béret.
    When he's older I will help him with his English and he can help me with my French when we're watching his younger siblings, Baby Crêpe, Baby Bagel and Baby Baguette on the swings in the park. :)




    I will not change nappies

    Was absolutely dying all day yesterday with a hang over and I still don't feel right.

    Still no sign of my missing ring :( Very upsetting.

    I wish to God I could smuggle stuff out.

    Unfortunately for me, my mother knows exactly what's in the junk room.

    She might look in the wrong box for the photos or whatever but she'll be able to tell you what is up there.

    I know there's saucepans, furnitre, china sets, cutlery sets, candles, photo frames, CDs, DVDs, lamps, old non working tv, stereo set, mats/rugs/carpets, photos, a couple of toilet cleaning sets (brushes, holder etc), a scanner, two clothes horses, vases, mirrors, my pool table from when I was a kid, luggage.

    That's probably only a quarter of what is up there. I guarantee you, you go up and root through everything that list will be ten times longer.

    Just for that, if I am pregnant, I'm going to give daily updates of the wonders of pregnancy. In graphic detail.

    Here's a taster.
    Cervical mucous has an egg-white consistency

    I would if I have time but I've left it too late!

    Mine was made in an hour and a half! :D

    Where?! That would be perfect!

    Please don't!! :)

    I remember in the first few months of my pregnancy, I regularly used to get faint while reading "What to expect when you're expecting". I'm such a wuss!

    I hoard my clothes and shoes. I live in a house with two males who are both ruthless when it comes to clear outs. My father nagged me FOR MONTHS to clear out my wardrobes, which I kept putting off. Finally my brother got fed up listening to this and said he'd help me. He went through each item of clothing individually.
    You never wear this!
    - "I do!"
    polloloca, it wouldn't even fit you
    - "it does! I love that skirt/top/dress".

    He filled 5 black sacks of all my clothes and gave me one to take downstairs. I was wondering what was taking him so long following me down and when I went back to check he was ruthlessly stuffing anything he could get his hands on into another bag, clothes that we agreed could stay. I never did discover what exactly he had kidnapped but he won't be helping me anytime again in a hurry.

    I don't mind hearing about those gross pregnancy related things 'cause I'm all un-pregnant and stuff. :)

    I'm not a hoarder, but I am bad for keeping clothes I never wear. A good trick is to tidy your wardrobe every 6 months. Things that are hanging up, face all the hangers the same way. When you wear an item, put it back on the hanger but face the hanger the other way. After 6 months/1 year, remove any items that never changed direction! If you haven't worn something in a year, you're unlikely to ever wear it. I did that last year and got rid of bags of stuff to charity.

    I'm a hoarder. I keep all types of tickets, baggage tags etc.

    Also with clothes. I threw out a few bags worth a month or so ago but I still have a huge amount that I could throw out as well. Just can't bring myself to do it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 684 ✭✭✭Polloloca


    I need an entire new wardrobes. :(

    Waiting for the phone to ring is the worst! Through some banking catastrophe, the travel company we booked our hols with was able to book and take payment for our hotel and transfers but not the actual flights - and never bothered to mention it until I got in touch with them today.
    Waiting for a call back now so I can pay for the flights, and I'm convinced they're going to say the price has gone up since we made our booking. Cmonnnn call me!

    Take it up with Flourescence! :D

    That'll learn you not to casually highlight spoiler tagged stuff.

    ('taint gross either, it has an awful sounding name but it's good stuff, keeps out infections and lets in only the healthiest swimmers in)

    I'm still recovering from the weekend, definitely glad I booked today off work! A few of us went on a girlie weekend to the Westport festival, it was absolutely brilliant. My sister loves Wallis Bird, so after her gig I decided we'd get backstage if we looked confident enough, and it worked :) We managed a pic and a bit of a chat before we were rumbled and escorted out. We also got to see Ray Davies who was amazing, sadly we weren't able to get backstage that time though! A festival where everyone is really chilled out, there are no mad queues and you can walk back to the B&B = win (for me anyway, I don't do roughing it very well!)

    For a second I thought you met Ray Davies at Westlife, I was thinking what the hell was HE doing there!

    Just painted my nails pink. I feel like such a girl!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,676 ✭✭✭✭herisson


    i have no room for my bra's in my drawers so i made a bra hanger!

    I also attempted to clean my room but i may have made it messier!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,065 ✭✭✭Miaireland


    Has any one had shellac nails done? Did they damage you nails much? I had the gelcure one done and didn't like the way they filed the surface of the nail. I am thinking of getting shellac as normal varnish doesn't last anytime on my nails.

    Ive had them done and it's the removal of them that damage, they don't file in the application
