  • Back from hospital with LO, she has a shiny new brace that doesnt smell:D Her old one was nearly 2 years old and a bit whiffy:o

    Will also do some more washing and download the algebra notes i have missed.

  • Today I have:
    washed up/wiped kitchen surfaces
    washed bedcovers, dried on the line and put back on the bed (smells soooo good)
    Done the ironing and put away the clothes,
    Removed a muddy paw print from my fave. sweatshirt
    swished around sink in bathroom and put bleach down the toilet
    dusted LR
    hoovered LR/DR and hall
    put paper in recycling box

    that looks like loads written down like that, but it wasn't too bad and I just put on some music and got on with it. Also don't have to make dinner tonight as its just microwaved leftovers from yesterday, time for a cuppa i reckon.
    logging off for the day. Hope you are all having a good day.:D
    Goals: Have a Homemade Christmas 2008, lose a 1 and a half stone, be thankful for everything I have.

    G&B I'm also doing pizza tonight, a mish mash of all kinds of meat toppings and then the leftovers go in SC tomorrow. I normally just use a tin of chopped toms for base, can I have your pasta sauce recipe, please? Oh and yay for the new brace.
    DustyYour recipe for the banana loaf looks yum, will have to try it out-but since DF can't eat nuts, do I hold them off or just scoff alone:think:

    I'm sure I've missed someone this round (***oops***)

    By the way-I have to tell you all I absolutely LOVE MY STARDROPS!!!
    How did anybody live without them:)
