Morning all!
Jess - congratulations on the arrival of Leon, lovely name, and special baby sized hugs for him!
Pink - hugs for you
Smokey - girly day sounds lovely, enjoy yourself!
Busygirl - hope the spots don't get worse! Just avoid anyone who is pregnant as chickenpox is very dangerous to unborn babies, and not so good for new ones either.
Diva - loved the pics!
Hugs to everyone else in need, and welcome to Sassymoneysaver!
Really foggy here, not sure whether it rained overnight or the fog has dampened the ground. Got to take down the girls tents from the garden today and have a tidy round, friend is coming to sort it out for me as an end of summer tidy up.
Went to Mr T's and Mr A's yesterday and found lots of bargains, cooked vast amounts for oh's birthday dinner, then enjoyed it with the girls and and a glass of wine!
Will prob be leftovers for lunch today, and then I fancy baked potatoes for dinner, nice to munch in front of strictly tonight I think!
Once I've sorted the garden this morning we're off to get dd2 a new hamster, the old one died of old age a couple of weeks ago. Will have a mooch round town and see if I can come up with any pressie ideas for Chrimbo for people as well!GC Oct £387.69/£400, GC Nov £312.58/£400, GC Dec £111.87/£4000 -

Well I took him out all by myself in Pickering and we went and watched a steam train and then did a little bit of shopping together! I am so proud of myself! I am now on a stronger dose of happy pills which helps, but I did it!
Hugs to everyone!
Well done Sybil, one step at a time. Hopefully you will feel strong enough to take him out again next week - keep us updated :TYou're only young once, but you can be immature forever

Good morning everyone,it's a lovely bright(not yet too sunny) morning and comfortably warm.Last night was very warm and kept me awake.Still I should'nt be complainig the cold will come soon enough.
I'm going to get my food shop in today and do very little else.If the weather's going to be good there's no way I'm going to miss it.We live only 10 minutes drive away from the coast and it's lovely when the weather's dry and fine so that's where I intend to spend a couple of hours.It's also very handy as my daughter lives two minutes from the beach so we can pop in for a cuppa.
Have a lovely day everyone.xxxx0 -

Hi all nice sunny morning here today, makes everyone feel better!! Well gas bill arrived this morning and they owe me £188, so no increase in monthly payments and what with my (hopefully)sooper dooper new boiler thats being fitted on Monday, i shouldnt be afraid to keep warm this winter!!
If i could just get the electricity consumption down, trying at the mo, energy saving lightbulbs, using clothes airer instead of TD as much as possible, not leaving anything on standby and even cutting down how much time i spend on the computer.
Was going to spend the day with my food dehydrator but DD1 has claimed it, will i ever see it again? I think not!!!
Today will be spent washing as obviously i cant wash Monday or Tuesday with the boiler being renewed, and then DH and i are off out tonight to our Country and Western club. Tomorrow is bootsale day and DD2 is going to sell her bits and pieces for money for Christmas.
Lunch today will be HM fish and chips, no tea as there is a buffet at the club tonight.
Have a great weekend everyone. BSB xxx0 -

Morning all:D
It's a beautiful sunny day in London, though not that warm yet, but I'm sure it will get there. So your wedding should be safe amie:D
I had lots of boring houseworky plans for today, but I've decided to ditch a lot of them and go and meet a friend for coffee;)
I have got 2 wash loads on the line, and the BM will be finished in a while, so not a total cop out.
Jess, welcome to Leon Joseph, I knew Aussie would approve of the name;) It is lovely.
master catowen, hope you have a lovely birthday :bdaycake:
Glad you managed the outing sybil, you'll be able to build on that, before you know where you are going out alone won't be a problem :T
Well I'd best shift myself. As Aussie said yesterday, this beautifying process seems to take a bit longer nowadays. Can't think why
:rotfl:
Hugs to all in need. Have a lovely girlie day smoky and DD.
