    Good morning

    I'm off to see the midwife at my GPs this morning... It's the first time I've EVER got to attend a second appointment with her and I CAN'T STOP SMILING :)

    My parents came home from their (september) holiday yesterday and I showed them the piccies from my scan two weeks ago. Papa had slightly damp eyes after seeing his grandchild although he 'claims' a bit of dust landed in his eye:rolleyes: but I know he's an old softie at heart!

    love and hugs to all,

    Morning everyone!

    I'm feeling VERY positive today, I'm off work for the rest of the week and my Flat has been marked sold subject to contract :D:D:D:D:D

    The buyer has been passed by the housing association (its a shared ownership) and they have instructed solicitors :D With any luck in 4 - 6 weeks I should have enough money to pay off ALL my debts :D

    AND I am going to pick my Aunt and Uncle up from the airport who are coming to stay with my family from Oz for a month :D

    I hope everyone has a good day and hugs to those who need them

    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Mornin' all :D

    Yesterday turned out to be an achieving day for me... finally got round to sorting out my food cupboard, so everything is now all neat in the shelves they should be on. Won't need soup or baked beans for a while methinks !!! And I know whats near sell-buy date, so thats at the front waiting to be used up first.

    Today I am meeting two mates for lunch, always good for a giggle and a gossip.

    Tonight I shall make myself go swimming. I've got a package from the local leisure centre for 20 quid a month (for as long as I want it cos it never goes up once you sign up) for unlimited swimming. Worked out that at £3.90 a shot if I didn't have this, if I swim a couple of times a week, I'm quids in and getting fit. I used to be able to swim 40 lengths at a time, but I'll need to rework my way back up.

    So today will also be an achieveing day for me

    morning all....... it's a carpy day here weather wise... but all's well with the world as i have a shiny new handbag from a lovely friend! it's blinking gorgeous, and mahoosive! so is now full of all my "stuff"

    Also it is only 3 more days of work and i am off for a week! and only 10 days til woo woo central mini meet at chez bunny! i can't wait...! (I can't believe i'm going to meet you guys! so ace!!)

    Work appearrs to be okay today but i can't beleive it's only 1020, i seem to have done loads already today... shocking!

    Marg - that's expensive for a swim singly but a bargain at £20 a month...
    my local pool does swims for £2.40 and you can buy a 12 session card for £24, so 2 sessions free. however it is pretty run down changing rooms and pants hairdryers.....! is your pool posh?
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....
