I have had quite a lazy week which has resulted in a pile of housework to do, which I am going to try to get through today and tomorrow and then start week three of my housework rota on Monday, as it should be. For some reason I can't not do a catch up of my housework rota.

Here is my list:

• Clean patio doors and windows inside & out
• Clean outside kitchen window and back door
• Steam kitchen floor
• Steam bathroom floor
• Wood polish rocking chair
• Vacuum bedrooms and landing
• Vacuum inside settee and chair
• Vacuum downstairs floor
• Vacuum conservatory floor
• Zone clean Adam's bedroom
• Clean downstairs light shades
• Clean kitchen cupboard fronts
• Bleach kitchen sink
• Clean bench tops
• Empty upstairs bins
• Clean banister and skirtings
• Clean stairs
• Polish furniture
• Polish kitchen display cabinet
• Clean upstairs doors & handles
• Clean upstairs door frames
• Clean ovens
• Clean light switches and sockets
• Dust dado rails
• Clean big mirror
• Clean 2 blinds, 2 windows & 2 radiators

Not much....HA! My own fault for being lazy!

We had 2 of our grandchildren here yesterday and WOW! The mess from just two of them, but mess comes with children, and it easily cleans up!

Our car is still off the road. For some reason the brakes are giving us jip, we have tried replacing all sorts, maybe time for a new car.

Well, time to get started. I will be back later today.

We popped to Costco again yesterday and I did buy the glass containers that I wanted, and a few other bits & pieces, but first of all here is a quick pic of the Actifry that I bought:

I still haven't even plugged it in yet...tut tut - I have just done an online grocery shop and I have ordered a few things that I am going to cook in it i.e. chicken drumsticks and potatoes.

Below is a photo of the candle holders and candles...WOW! These candles smell so strong! As soon as I go near them I can smell them and that is before they are burning. I bought these from Ikea last week and were only 95p per item.

Below are a few pics from my Costco trip yesterday:

Here are the containers; a 5 piece glass set with lids and a lovely set of Rubbermaid containers with lids. I need to get them out of the box and washed, ready to use.

I also bought a set of drinks bottles and the thinnest set of digital kitchen weigh scales I have ever seen.

Above is a photo to show just how thin these scales are......thin aren't they?

Here is a photo of a few bulk items I bought and at such a good price also.
I also bought 9 boxes of Aquafresh toothpaste for around £5 and 6 boxes of Sensodyne toothpaste for £11 and pence. The body wash was around £6 and the Carex was around £5. I bought two packs of the Airwick sprays for £9.00 for each 4 pack. It does definitely pay to buy in bulk because these things will last us for a little while and so reduce the weekly shopping bill.

I might get back later today but if not I will be back tomorrow.

That is exactly what I am doing with 'Weight Watchers'.
I have cancelled my 'Weight Watchers' online account which will be finished at the end of this month. I have cancelled it because I just don't use it, and to be honest, with all the things I have at home I have everything I need!! So as of tomorrow I will weigh in....yep! Back to my Thursday weigh in :) so, as of tomorrow, Thursday 19th February I am weighing in and getting on following 'Weight Watchers', starting with following a week or two of 'Simple Start' aka 'Filling & Healthy', I WILL post photo's of my meals or start vlogging them.

We went for our big grocery haul last Friday and we did get to Costco. I want to get back to Costco because I am quite keen to buy some of their glass food storage boxes, I don't know why I didn't buy any whilst I was there, well, actually I did mean to go back for them once I filled my trolley with the food stuff but I forgot.

I also ordered and received an item that I had years ago and which broke down shortly after I bought it: a Tefal Actifry...WooHoo When my other Actifry broke I said that I wouldn't buy another but I gave in and bought another. Thinking back I think I used to overload the other Actifry which would have played a huge part in it breaking...DOH!! I didn't buy the larger Actifry, I bought the smaller and which was supposed to be £169.99 + p&p but I got the same one and brand new for £113.00 which included the p&p from Argos online....I really scored there because they are selling it for the £169.99 in the Argos catalogue. I will post a photo tomorrow.

I also went to Ikea for some of their food bags which cost £1.95 for 50 (25 of a larger and 25 of the smaller bags) I have been buying the Ziplock bags which are great but they do cost a lot more money and so I thought that I would give Ikea's bags a try.
I also spotted some lovely silver candle holders and candles which I bought two of each. The candles and the holders were only 95p each and the candles are quite a strong fragrance. If they burn well then I will buy more of those too.
Lots of photo's tomorrow.

We have the Gas man coming tomorrow AGAIN....GRRRRR - This time because our hot water has been only getting hot intermittently, but I have also booked him to do our gas service also which means that I won't have to rearrange everything twice. Our gas boiler is in a sort of walk in cupboard in our bedroom but I have a tall chest of drawers with our TV on top infront of the cupbaord, also our full length mirror is infront of the cupboard, aswell as a few other things and everytime he has to visit I have to pull everything out so he can get to the boiler....SOOO ANNOYING! But you never know, we might get a year before we have another problem and we have to book him again. The boiler we purchased is meant to be THE Rolls Royce of boilers and that is what the gas men have told us every time they come here....BAH HUMBUG! The amount of break downs we have with that thing does not suggest it is the Rolls Royce but it is one of the best boilers on the market, it's a Vaillant.

Well, I think that is all for now and it is time for my bed.

Back tomorrow. Night night!

A bag of chips, a treat? Yes! Only because I didn't have to cook the evening meal. A bag of chips is not a good or wise choice of meal! And I regret it now, I knew I would.
After I had eaten them I asked myself a question, "were they worth it?" And I have to say, "a big fat NO!" I need to try to remember my feelings after indulging in such a waste of points, my weekly points that is, remembering my thoughts and feelings after eating such rubbish will definitely stop me wanting it, of that I am sure!

I have been rather lazy today but I will do a catch up tomorrow.

My Glossy box arrived.

Wilkinson Sword - Hydro Silk Razor
Marsk - Mineral Eyeshadow - Fifty Shades
Royal Apothic - Tinties (Tinted Lip Butter)
So Susan - Rose quartet Lip & Cheek Palette
Vicy - Liftactiv Plus.

I have prepared my breakfast for tomorrow morning; overnight oats, I will post a picture in the morning.
I have also prepared a 'Filling & Healthy' quiche. This was basically a 'Slimming World' quiche which includes everything that I can eat on the 'Filling & Healthy' plan. I did also add some very lean diced grilled bacon into the ingredients which is also allowed on the plan.

Slimming World Quiche / Suitable for Weight Watchers Filling & Healthy
Onions, Diced
Peppers, diced
Mushrooms, sliced
any veg you like
200g Fat Free Natural Cottage Cheese
4 Eggs
Salt
Pepper

Beat everything together.
Pour into a sprayed quiche pan
Bake 200 degs for 20 - 25 minutes.

I am going to pop to Ikea when I go to Costco in a few days; Ikea is just across the road from Costco. I want to buy some food bags because I want to make up a load of green smoothie bags so I can simply just grab one every morning, which I am hoping will encourage me to drink more green smoothies.

I started to do vlogs today but I wasn't happy with them so I will keep practising and as soon as I am happy I will post a vlog, could be tomorrow!

I think that is all for today so I will be back tomorrow. Night Night.

Well, I am really not sure. I was so busy sticking to my rota's I just totally forgot to blog.
I have been doing my housework rota today also so again I have been busy, but I was determined not to forget to blog.

I am doing really well with following Weight Watchers, 'Filling & Healthy' aka 'Simple Start'.
I have kept forgetting to clip my Fitbit to my clothing which I am rather disappointed about because I am sure all the housework I have been doing would have given me an activity point or two, not that I would have eaten them, I wouldn't have.

I am going to attempt to vlog (video) my meals etc as of tomorrow morning....watch this space! I will upload my video's onto here, but just to let you know, my You Tube channel is called, 'Weigh On Point' I will put a link when I have uploaded my first video.
I am doing a Costco shop at the weekend so I might vlog that also...exciting!

Well, I have a headache which I have had for most of the day so I am going to sign off here and crawl into bed with a nice cuppa and watch some TV before settling down.

I hope you are having a good day or evening wherever you are in the world! :)

I am prepared for my new start as of tomorrow morning.
I have stocked up on a few groceries, I have my charts printed and meal idea's in my head which I need to put on paper :)

I didn't do an online grocery order over the weekend, we just stocked up ourselves but we got what we need until we go to Costco at the weekend.
Our car is still off the road so our eldest son, Michael will be taking us to Costco. Our son is going to try and get our car fixed over the next few weeks. We need to order a part and by the time that arrives my husband will be off work for a week and so he will help where Michael needs help. My husband is off work next week, not this week.

I am seriously thinking of doing some video's of my journey, not sure whether I will have myself on camera or just film what I am eating and drinking, and maybe a recipe or two.

I have been doing some housework and laundry today but not much else. I have a lot of things to do around the house tomorrow.

I have nothing else to report about so instead of rambling on I will end it here for today.
Have a good evening or day wherever you are in the world.

get told off from my youngest son, James when I ask for his help on the computer and because I dont understand he seriously grumps at me and tells me that I should know all this.....*blowing raspberries* at the little tike!

Anyway. I popped to a local Weight Watchers meeting this morning and bought these:

The new Weight Watchers magazine annnnnnd 2 packets of the NEW Garlic and Herb Bag n Bakes....YUM! I will be trying this next week. The bag n bakes are only £1 at the Weight Watchers meetings at the moment.

I am going to re-start my Weight Watchers and do a week or two on 'Filling & Healthy' also known as, 'Simple Start'. I will do a brand new weigh in and get going on my Weight Watching journey. I think that I have been stalling getting into my Weight Watchers journey over the last few months again because I wanted to document this and because of having terrible computer problems and knowing that I can't document properly it has made me have as many false starts...well, that's my excuse anyway, well, not really an excuse because I am usually an all or nothing person and I want everything just right before I can get myself into things properly.

Okay, I am thinking to do my weigh in's on Monday's again because I don't want to wait until Thursday, although I do like a Thursday weigh in....ummmm - nope! Monday mornings it is going to be! So all details will be logged on here!

I have been battling a cold for the last week but I am much better than I was this time last week.
I don't know what it is this afternoon but I am feeling like I want to get on and just get things done i.e. stick to my rota's, do my measurements every week or so, and just be awake!....heehee - now that sounds daft...'just be awake'...lol but I just want to get going and keep going! :)

Tonight I am going to do a body scrub and all those lovely pampering things which is a good start...bring myself back to life again...oh dear! I am coming out with some good ones today, but hey that is how I am feeling and we all have different ways of expressing how we feel don't we?

I think that is all today but if I have anything to update about then I will be back, but if not then I will be back tomorrow. Have a good day or evening, whatever time it is where you are in the world!

Having said that, I did have trouble signing into blogger using Google Chrome :/

I will manage though, it is just until I get used to using Google Chrome. 

I am doing my online grocery shop tomorrow. I am finding that I am saving money by doing grocery shopping this way. I am still going to Costco every month to do a major stock up but I now just do an online grocery shop inbetween, whereas I was doing a major stock up at Costco then into Tesco and the Nutricentre, and then another major shop in Asda every month and all on the same day, and then STILL buy weekly at Asda....what was I thinking?

I just might do a video of my groceries so you can see what I am buying for my Weight Watchers :) My husband brought the video camera, tripod etc down from the loft and I have written all the instructions down as to how to use it....nope! I am not technically minded :/ I wish I was but our 15 year old son is the techno geek in this house!

I have no get up and go today, not sure why, but there is always tomorrow.

I am SOOO glad to be back online with a new reliable computer :) :) :) Everything is all rigged up to our new computer i.e the camera, printer etc so any photo's I take I can now post them again...WooHoo Our old computer just did not have much ram and it was full. Our son cleared loads off it and done all his techno stuff to it but it didn't seem to want to go any faster. It was rather old and he started talking computer jargon about it as to why it wasn't running right but it is just so confusing to me when he talks about the gubbings in a computer.

I have just cooked up 2 chicken breasts, one of which I will have for my evening meal tomorrow along with roast veg and pasta, I will probably post a photo of my meal/s.....cause I can! :)

A recap about my Weight Watchers:
I am on 29 points per day and 49 per week. I have subscribed to Weight Watchers online which is mainly so I can start and see what activity points I earn each day wearing my Fitbit which I have synchronized to Weight Watchers. Because I have my Fitbit synchronized with Weight Watchers I can start to challenge myself to earn extra activity points. I think the other Fitbit gives you challenges automatically but that is the Fitbit you wear around your wrist, I wanted the Fitbit that I can clip onto my clothes which I clip onto my bra strap. I will post a pic tomorrow of the Fitbit I bought.

Well I think that is me for today, so until tomorrow, I hope you have a nice day or evening, it is evening here; 8.09pm to be precise.
