bluewater, 21 August, 2009 at 09:10 Posted on Planning 0 39

GOOD: your weekly weekend good / bad thread is back!

GOOD: as are the loopers! welcome barry, it's been a pleasure meeting you. i've never laughed so much at a thread (except for the 'how do men pee?' thread on OT a few months ago....)

GOOD: lots of hitcher's weddings this weekend - have fab days count duckula, fionats73 and twf (and anyone else i might have forgotten)

GOOD: also lots of hens this weekend - we want to see lots of shameful photos dec1984, beccy sprout and tahdah!

ok these are mine:

GOOD: going to a friend's baby shower on sunday - its a surprise! she needs cheering up as baby is breech ATM, and if he/she doesnt turn, she'll need a CS.

GOOD: getting a takeaway with my parents on saturday, going to get thai so we can relive our HM (though i'm not sure eating thai, in front of the x factor, with my parents, in a rainy greenhithe, will come anywhere near to replicating that....)

BAD: soooooooooooooooo much ironing.

BAD: i'm back at work.

BAD: i'm broker than a broke thing.

GOOD: i'm living in domestic bliss with my husband ??

    Good - have some girlfriends over for wine lunch and a 'practice' tomorrow whilst the boys go for their fitting/pub

    Bad - Mother has invited herself along to the above

    Bad - I had my eyelashes done last night, spent a fortune on them then spent the rest of the night in tears because I look like a cartoon drag queen

    Bad - I feel that my hair, dress and make-up are not exactly what I want and it's all because I'm too nice to say when I don't like something.

    Good - Only 7 work days left after today

    Bad - Have an awful lot to do in those days

    Hmmm, it looks like a really bad week from me but I'm generally feeling ok.

    Have fun on your weekends hens, and best of luck to all the hitchers getting wed this weekend!

    Good: It's the weekend, and this week has draaaaaggged

    Bad: Have an immensely boring weekend planned due to the below

    Bad: I am unbelievably skint, and don't get paid till next Friday - I so need a night out ?

    Good: X Factor tomorrow!

    Good: popping round to see my friend tomorrow and her little boy who I haven't seen for ages so will be good to catch up

    Good/Bad: she's just split with her little boy's dad so is pretty upset (reason it's good/bad is that he's an absolute tosser, so it's good that she's split up with him, but bad because she's obviously upset and it's never nice to see a family break)

    Good: we decided on our honeymoon destination this week!!! woohooo ?

    Good: we have decided we will be able to afford a bit of winter sun this year so next week we're going to book a week away in Egypt in November ?

    Bad: I seem to have hit a plateau with my weight loss, and I'm nowhere near goal! Haven't lost for the last 3 weeks and have been sooo good and focused, it doesn't seem fair

    Happy Friday everyone ?

    Decided on Kenya, and doing a safari trip too! We had loads of different places in mind but when T suggested it, it seemed to be the only one where we both felt exactly the same about it and so we had a little look on t'interweb and found some really cool places there and it sort of made our minds up for us really! So really excited about it!

    Good: OH is off so he'll be waiting for me to get home tonight (possibly with the dinner made *wishful thinking alert!*)

    Good: Going to local History festival with my mum tomorrow to see people in funny costumes bashing each other over the head with swords and suchlike, also the possibility of picking up a cloak and/or some handmade jewellery for BM and FG.

    Bad: I have to go to the gym tonight as personal trainer sent me home after our session on Tuesday saying "you're a very funny colour, I don't think you should do anything else tonight, make it up later on in the week"

    Bad: Haven't so much as looked at the housework in about a fortnight so my house is officially a total cowp and I will need to tidy it all up.

    Bad: those invitations aren't going to make themselves! (I suppose that's not really a bad, it will be progress!)

    Thanks OLL. I was just more angry at myself for not insisting she did the shorter ones as I knew this would happen. I'm booked in to get them redone in 2 weeks (it's more of a touch up) and will definitely get the shorter ones done then. Why can't I ever just stick up for myself and say NO!?

    At least they look a little bit better than the cheaper 'draft excluder' ones I had done a few months back ?.

    Oh nooo SK which eyelash extensions did you go for?? I bet you look lovely really. They just take getting used to..

    When I first got mine done I went for the short lashes but now have a mixture of the medium/long ones - oops maybe I look like a man in make-up.. Wondered why I got funny looks when I got fitted for a bra t'other day. That coupled with having no boobies (more like moobs) poor bra-fittery woman musta been confuzzled.
