Hey all, thanks for the hugs earlier. I was feeling better but I've slumped again now! Mr G is off to work in a bit and I need to take DD1 to dancing but I just want to stay at home and do nothing so I feel a bit mean
Need enthusiasm to feed everyone now. Get fed up of hearing "yuck" every evening and I refuse to give in all the time!Fluttering about an inch off the ground, I may fly properly one day and soar in the clouds!

Oooh, thanks Pigpen, forgot about that...
Right, I'm off to sit for 2 hours on the M25 car park that is my journey home... wish me luck (although I shan't need it in my shiny new car, coz it is mine and they're not having it back, coz it's mine and that's it!) ....LBM April 2013 - £29,000.00Vanquis CC's PAID - Debenhams SC PAID - A+L OD PAID - Asda CC £783.75Barclaycard CC £1400.78 - BoS CC PAID - Freemans Cat PAIDF/D Loan & CC £1458.96 - Santander Loan PAID - Mum Loan PAIDRBS OD PAID - F/D OD £1026.52Weekly Grocery Challenge - £95.00 budget / spend £-0 -
I need to get off this chair but it is too cold. Came home to a not at all well pc and it has taken me hours to sort it. 5pm and nothing done yet.
We only have three working radiators and the house is freezing. Fire is on but I am going to run out of wood shortly. Snow has been and gone - very pretty but also very cold.
Right, must get on, might get the hoover out as the warmest option. DS1 suggested ironing but I did most of that last night. They aren't cold - but I have blue fingers.'If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need' Marcus Tullius Cicero0 -

Shes a wiggly worm... rolling everywhere and wiggling across the floor cant leave her unattended for 2 seconds! :rolleyes: She has tried to crawl but cant master lifting her little chubby belly off the floor so she just kinda pivots on it... arms and legs thrashing fifty to the dozen kinda looks like a demented starfish:rotfl: :rotfl:
She can pull herself around on her belly using her arms only though kinda "army crawl" style usually chasing her new favourite toy... an empty 2L Fanta bottle with a handful of dried chick peas in it0 -
