Thursday

Hi!

Well we got another 5 star review from our last guests! I don't know what happened to the sheets - maybe they used massage oil - but I can't get the marks out - so its the first thing I need to replace! After just two guests its not good!

The guests were lovely and it seemed like they had a great time - they went off and did lots of things! :-)

Our third guests is due Saturday night - just the one night and for a party in Bishops Hull - I hope it doesn't get messy!

The cleaner was supposed to turn up today and hasn't - and she has not responded to my message!  I was a bit concerned about what I wanted her to do to be honest so I'm not too fussed  and I have physio at 12.30.

So - Tuesday was my one-week weight in - lost 4lb - happy with that! I have no idea if I'll lose again this week but I hope so - I'm sticking to the diet!  If only I could lose 2lb every week! that would be awesome! Even 1lb a week! Just hate it when you've been dieting all week and dont lose anything!

It probably helped that I didn't drink over the weekend - well....I had a couple of glasses of wine - but I kept within my 'points'.

This week I have bought some architrave for the fireplace to neaten up the wood panelling where we hacked it off to get to the fireplace in the living room - I have also bought a big piece of timber for a mantle beam - the wood is called zebrano (because the grain is quite stripey), it was £100....so soon the fireplace will be sorted and the room will be decorated and we are going to have a move around of the furniture....and it will be another room done!  The wood for the mantle is still in my car because it is too heavy for me to get it out on my own and Andy is away until tonight - so I'll be driving around with it until then!  Bit of a pain in the ass as my tires need air too....I'll do that on the way to physio  and on the way back I'll stop and get the bits I need for satay chicken tonight! Wow - I lead such an exciting life!!!
