Morning Lucielle
You are as busy as ever. Glad to hear that DS1 has travel organised. Kids really take it out of you. don't they. Wouldn't be without them though:)
Good to hear that you got physio sorted out. You need it and and you have to look after yourself my dear.
take care

Lovely morning here with lots of stars shining very brightly, could see the 'plough' really clearly. Had a busy day yesterday, chaps and myself all passed at the dentist, boys had their haircut and even managed a session at the secondhand bookstore that I use as a library. I was £118 in credit and spent £30 on books, DD1 is sorted and will probably be buried in her bed with her nose in a book all day. Dropped the youngest 3 off at swimming, DS1 came with me and we did Lidl, took the car to the garage to see if he could get the locks to work, sadly no joy so its booked in.
Went to the flicks last night and saw Johnny English, must admit I was laughing so hard at one point I was struggling to breathe. Went to the hut afterwards and came out very stuffed, so stuffed I couldn't face any breakfast but I have brought loads of fruit for when I get peckish. Even managed to get DD1 some trainers (I hate buying trainers as they're so picky) and best of all they were only a tenner!
I had put some gammon in the slow cooker yesterday, so that's tonights tea sorted. Must go and order some coal.

Lovely, to hear from you Taxi and that weightloss is a-maz-ing! Wide awake as the phone rang twice and I missed it on both occasions. Took the resident house dog and pup for a longer than normal walk yesterday, they both enjoyed it. Not sure what's happening today, OH is at work all weekend, just remembered the clocks change tomorrow, really wish they'd leave them alone.
I've got to sort out my car insurance and get some quotes for electricity. That should keep me out of mischief for a while.

good luck with the quotes0

Made 10 million batches of Twinks hobnobs on Saturday and managed to get some in the freezer, in the afternoon watched a DVD. Took the dogs for a walk on Sunday morning and called in at a friends to drop a card off for her birfday. I was on a roll in the afternoon and have prepped the next few days meals, roast chicken last night, lasagne tonight and curry for tomorrow night that's been started in the slowcooker.
Didn't manage to get in gear to sort out the quotes for the insurance and electricity and made no progress on the newsletter. Really, really can do better.
