I call DS2 Dermo/Buster depending what mood I'm in. Played some good badminton tonight despite being stiff.
Not had a particularly brilliant day at work, sometimes feels like being back in the playground. Still I'll put my tough rhino hide on and ride it out. Just got to get through tomorrow and then I've got the day off.

Managed to get 1 lot of wrapping done this morning. Then OH and I went into town to have our backs done. Nice chiropractor only charged us for 1 session. Had to get some fancy icing for DD2, as she has to decorate a cake at school tomorrow. She's looking a bit peaky at the mo. I hope she isn't coming down with something, she keeps getting headaches but has sensibly taken herself off to bed.
Had to get some feed for the menagerie, not long until the turkeys are going IYKWIM. DS1 made me laugh the other day, the farmer where he works now has 2 young sons. They were saying that some of the pigs were ready to go on their holidays, when 1 of the little boys said "I don't want them to go because when mummy pig went on holiday she didn't come back!" DS1 walked away and left dad to sort that one out.
Did some more shopping this afternoon and nearly there. Attempted to go to Booker on the way home but only had 3 mins until they closed so left it. I'll try again on Monday providing the weather is ok.
I'm going down to the parents on Friday next week. My oldest sister is coming up from London and my middle sister will be there. Its not going to be pretty. Middle sis has already started mud slinging and strring things big style. |I'm not sure what we are going to achieve and I'm dreading it.
It has also been a sad day today as I paid my £2 coin stash into the bank, all £600 of it. This was my secret savings for a horse. Well I've done it once I can do it again.

Aw L.. I didn't know you were saving for a horse. £600 is a great amount though. Well done.
I don't envy you the weekend with the family. I know I wouldn't be able to keep my temper! But I bet you are more self controlled (grown -up!). Good luck anyway.CCs @0% £24k Dec 05 £19,621.41 Au £13400 S 12600 Oct £11,981 £9481 £7500 Nov £7250 D £7100 Jan 6950 F £5800 Mar£5400 May £4830 June £4660 July £4460 Aug £3200, S £900, £0 18/9/07 DFW Nerd 0420 -
