Last Day of Jan...

Cant believe its the last day of January already, this month has flown by - the weather today has been awful, we have had a bit of everything, rain, sun, wind, hail, thunder, lightening and snow..... all in a day, and its really cold too :P

Today was a green day, breakfast was porridge and apple, lunch was a jacket potato and beans followed by a muller and fruit and tea was quorn, pepper,mushroom and tomato lasagne, came up with a fab topping for the lasagne, I melted down 6 laugh cow x triangles in a pan,very slowly, then added a small amount of skim milk - and then poured it on top of the lasagne before putting in the oven... it was delish.

Cant get on UKS tonight :( so have been bust tidying the room down the stairs to make as a craft room for me.... doesnt really look like I have got very far tho, still cant move in there :(

Well had weigh in this morning, and I had stayed the same.... gutted :( I have been good all week too :( not impressed. Went to the Bead Warehouse today with Shirley and popped in to Cheshire Oaks for a bit of retail therapy and a starbucks. I treated myself and had a skinny peach and strawberry muffin and a coffee.... medicinal purposes of course to cheer me up ;) came back and had a quick glance in the book to see how many syns and was horrifed to see 14.5 syns in a skinny muffin :( ho hum....

Not organised this week, havent got a menu plan sorted and havent been shopping, so not good, for brekkie I had a muller and an apple. Lunch was 3 krisprolls, laugh cow, celery, tom, and cherries/grapes. Tea was steamed salmon, sprouts, carrot/swede mash, brocolli and green beans followed by cherries, and of course my usual choccie treat... Dairy Milk tonight 10 syns.

Went to Rach's this evening for a mini crop, managed to get 4 layouts done, just need to put titles on as I forgot my chipboard :(

I so need a loss to keep me motivated... this is week 3 weigh in......... and I have been really good and not got on the scales once this week, which for me is a miracle.... :)

Off to have a soak in the bath then an early night ;) xx

Ive been tagged ;)

Andie has tagged me.....

What are my favorite songs... and why ?

OK, lets have a think... I'm a bit of a slushy girl I'm afraid... I have come up with 6 songs, in no particular order, my choices would be....:

(Have put a link to them on YouTube for you to have a listen, not convinced that the Videos to each are the originals.. but you get the idea....:))

Semisonic - Secret Smilehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-yQdNjC3AY
I love this song, Andrew sings it to me :) -
we had it at our Wedding as our first dance.....

'Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me ;)'


DJ Sammy - Heaven http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OuBmiu68ECU
I love this song, it reminds me of when my beautiful princesses, Chloe, Lauren and Nicole were born and how I feel in Andrew's arms :)

'Baby you're all that I want.
When you're lying here in my arms I'm finding it hard to believe
We're in heaven'


Dido - Thank you http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qf8Y9dEqvUM
because it reminds me of DH - how hearing from him brightens my day
and how meeting him was one of the best days of my life :) and my other best days would be the days on which my 3 wonderful princesses were born :)

'I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my life
Oh just to be with you is having the best day of my life'


Lionel Richie and Diana Ross - Endless Love http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbKojoL2-vU
another one of my favorite songs that mean so much to me, again
another slushy song for Andrew. My wish is that our love is endless.
I think the words say it all....

My love,
There’s only you in my life
The only thing that’s bright
My first love,
You’re every breath that I take
You’re every step I make
And i(i-i-i-i-i)I want to share
All my love with you
No one else will do...
And your eyes
Your eyes, your eyes
They tell me how much you care
Ooh yes, you will always be
My endless love

Two hearts,
Two hearts that beat as one
Our lives have just begun
Forever(ohhhhhh)
I’ll hold you close in my arms
I can’t resist your charms
And love
Oh, love I’ll be a fool
For you, I’m sure
You know I don’t mind
Oh, you know
I don’t mind’cause you,
You mean the world to me
OhI knowI knowI’ve found in you
My endless love

Ronan Keating - when you say nothing at all- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AuJrEBtmM1Q
Another favorite song, from one my my favorite films, Notting Hill :) Again another slushy song, about how it makes me feel when Andrew and the my Girls smile at me, all warm and it lights up my heart :)

It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word you can light up the dark
Try as I may I can never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing

The smile on your face let's me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me wherever I fall You say it best, when you say nothing at all

and lastly you will be pleased to know...:P

Another Level - From the Heart http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHyxBpAHiZc
Another from my favorite film, Notting Hill and again another slushy one.

From the heart
Im giving you everything, everything.
From the heart.
I promise you that Ill be there.
Ill be there to love you.


All these songs were played at our wedding, as they are all special songs to me (well us ;))..... so maybe I have cheated a little using these songs.... this has definitely made me have a think, and has given me a proper blubber session, cant even blame it on hormones :(, I am such a softy, they all bring a tear to my I eye. I have decided to do a page in my book of Me about my favorite songs... so I need to get my thinking cap on some more :)
