    Morning all.

    Still trying to recover from this cold. (I am a woman so it is not flu), spent most of the day in bed after I had cleaned the house after getting both the kids off to school. I had to clean the carpet again this morning as DS had trampled mud into it again.

    All beds made, bedrooms tidied, kitchen floor cleaned, living room tidied and mince out of the freezer ready for tea tonight. Just toddling along today and having lots of breaks as I'm breaking out in a sweat with every job done :(

    apple-mint - How lovely to "see" you! :D:D Don't work too hard at home today (unless it's to work at *not* dipping into the biscuit tin ;) ) Hope your OH does you proud with the pheasant :D

    Thank you Queenie. A bonus of working at home is that I can use my 'tea break' to meander around OS :D As for the pheasant ... I've got a couple of my farmhouse style cookery books out for OH (preparation of the bird) and I'll be disappearing out of the kitchen whilst he does the deed :o
    Enjoying an MSE OS life :D

    I've been a good girl today and done my housework BEFORE coming on here, yesterday i came on here just after i dropped DD off at playgroup and got so carried away reading through old posts that i had to rush down to pick her up and my house was a tip lol.

    Breakfast was porridge for me, toast and jam for DD, Lunch is left over tuna pasta from last night for me and spaghetti on toast for DD. Then Dinner is Shepherds Pie, broccoli and carrots with bananas and custard for afters. My nephew is coming for tea today so i'm looking forward to that - he's really special to me, i was there when he was born :)

    Take care

    Go, on... guess...

    Back from dentist and dont have to see him for 3/4 months :j do have to go and have a clean and polish next monday though with the hygienist :rolleyes: lucky me! Today, had a filling done, a small bit of taken out and some special solution heated on to 3 of my back teeth :confused: was very brave and had 3 injections and didnt moan :eek: i hate needles!

    Was starving after so I treated myself to a baguette (which I shared with OH) of pesto chicken with mayo and salad-was quite scrummy. Not very OS though, but thought I deserved it as I was such a brave girl :D was £1.80.

    Cleaner is here ATM and has done downstairs (spotless) and is just doing upstairs now. Have done another washload and have enough for a 3rd load today but may leave till tomorrow and hope the weather is better as I've used the TD twice already today :o

    Have put my PJ's back on and am going to take a strong pain killer and try and grab a snooze this afternoon before dd comes home. We are going round friends tonight for cheese/crackers & wine(i cant drink though..lol)-dont really feel up too going but is a step in the right direction and means i can tart meself up abit ;) Dont want to be out for more than 2hrs, so need to be back home by 10'ish at latest.

    Anyways, may post later but hope everyone has a nice day.

    Have put a vegetarian casserole in the slow cooker, prepared sprouts and yorkshire pudding for DH tonight and got two home made apple pies ready to put in the oven.

    DD will pop in as she has a dental appointment this afternoon so has come from Newcastle. Will be able to spoil her for an hour:j :j :j and DH will be giving her a lift to the station at 5pm. He does not know about this yet so the veg filled yorkie is an advance thank you.;)

    Just popped on here to catch up with the news.
