    Hi guys,

    Thanks for all the hugs I sure feel like I need them at the mo. That's what I am missing the most - having a hug and a cuddle with Eric - lots from the kids of course but it's not the same as a grown up one IYSWIM.

    I've not done much today, cleaned through and washed and dried LO's bundle from E-bay, made nuggets and hm chips for tea (finally cleaned out the fryer, Eric last did it before xmas) I've put that one off for so long I had stopped using it. Packed a bag for the eldest as he has gone off to cubs for camping until Sunday and am having a lager or two rather than doing the i***ing.

    LO has had a mild temp today and a runny nose so I have kept him off school allthough I selfishly was hoping for a wallow day - I seem to feel better after I have some time out to myself - anyway we both fell asleep on the settee after lunch and he seems to be a little better tonight.

    Tommorrow has been cancelled as I forgot George was at camp and he really wants to come too so I think we will hit the market for some Thorntons therapy and hit Lidl on the way home as I don't need enough for a big shop. DS wants a large framed princess print for her room that has been there for the last few weeks and has been saving her pocket money so I aim to get it tomorrow and cough up the difference. She deserves it as she is being really good at the mo and has won a bronze award for her behaviour at school :T :T :T I also want to buy her some girlie stuff too, She's well in too scarves, make-up, lip gloss, nail varnish etc. not like her mum at the mo but I think we may have a pamper afternoon tomorrow and maybe buy another DVD while we are at it.

    Haribo, Pink and Pen-pin - big gentle squishy hugs for you, wine o clock sounds like the perfect therapy and I am happy to join you in raising a glass (or tin in my case) :beer:

    Jessbrown - congratulations and what a lovely name you have chosen for him.

    Beth - Glad OH continnues to improve, gentle hugs to you both.

    Right I suppose I better go and eat something, see you soon.

  • Hello,

    Been a busy week for me. I've had DGS 4 days so by night time all I'm looking for is my bed. :D I'm off to see Bollywood (it's a show) with DD & 2 of her friends today down at the Casino. I've been up really early thanks to DH coughing in my ear. :rolleyes: Oh well, I suppose it could have been worse. :D

    Jess Congratulations on the safe arrival of Leon Joseph. Lovely name. I have a Leon too. :D
    Pink It takes a bit of adjusting but it gets easier.
    Haribo <hugs>
    Bookie Enjoy your art class and pop on whenever you can.
    Beth I'm glad OH is improving.
    SMoky My heartfelt feelings go out to you. <long distance hug>

    Well I better go and start putting the war paint on. :D It takes a while. Sleep well. Byeeeeeeeeeeeeee
    Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia. ;)

    Smoky - pamper times with DD's are wonderful, not sure how old your DD is but all that glitters etc is well received lol Hope you have a good weekend (((hugs))) for you

    Jess - photos soon please!

    Have enjoyed my wine o'clock, even though the first part of the evening was stressful, OH says he going for drink with work after work, if you see what I mean, I have no problem with that. SD was sposed to come 'sometime after 6' I waited.............and waited.tried to ring OH but went to voicemail aparently SD was sposed to ring to let me know she would be late, no signal from OH so just me sitting here wating like a lemon!

    All sorted now, both been told lol

    cya tomorrow xxxx
    whoever said laughter was the best medicine has clearly never tasted wine

    Stopped smoking 20:30 28/09/11 :D
