Another weekend over

Boy where on earth do the weekends disappear to?  I am sure time goes faster at weekends than during the working week!

Sorry for lack of updates, have been unwell since Thursday when I came home at lunchtime with a sore throat/ear... and since then I have developed a cough and also over the last 24 hrs or so, everytime I yawn or sneeze it feels like my right ear drum is going to burst! *ouch* so have been chilling and feeling sorry for myself.

Food choices over the last few days have not been good, which obviously resulted in a 400gms gain this week!  BUGGER!  But no one to blame but myself.

Have enjoyed a lovely afternoon today at the beach and playground enjoying family time and ice creams!  Rachel had a ball and that is all that matters for us!  I just wish this damn weather would be consistent.... wet OR fine NOT a mixture of them - every time I think summer is arriving, we get days of rain!  YUCK! 

Stephan and I had been saving some money re hair cuts... I had been cutting his hair (though was a bit rough according to him) and I had found a cheaper place to go to.  However, I knew Stephan really enjoyed getting his cut at the hairdressers, so when I rung them this week to see if he could get an appt, I had a wee chat with the receptionist explaining why we hadn't been in for so long... and anyway, the next day there was message for me on the answerphone to call her - the owner had a suggestion for us - that she would give us 1/2 price hair cuts if we were happy to have the current apprentice!  Couldn't really say no - so Steph had his hair cut yesterday and it looks fantastic - had one of the Snr hairdressers watching/guiding her all the way!  So hopefully she will do mine ok in 2 weeks time.

Anyway, am off to bed - but will leave you with a photo of Rachel....
