Happy Birthday Hester :bdaycake:
Been up ages but not done a lot yet. Have ordered a couple more christmas pressies and am just about to make some twinks. Taken the bin down to where it has to be and its freezing out brrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
OH has been out all week so looking forward to him coming home tonight, must cook something nice as he's been on motorway food all week. Time to hunt in the freezer I think!
Am off to spend my Tesco vouchers at the weekend, I know you get more if you swap them for deals, but need them for Christmas presents this year!
WM on and DW will go on once baking is finished.
Hugs for all those in need.
Have a good day xxxwhoever said laughter was the best medicine has clearly never tasted wine

Morning to you all
I am new to these forums so hope its ok to jump in!
A Miracle occured last night!!! My little boy slept the WHOLE night in his OWN bed without waking up!!! He is nearly 2 and used to sleep through no probs but recently he has been really bad and ended up in with us every night!
Anyway since I got a good night sleep for once, I have been up and at 'em since 7am.
Floors are swept and mopped, lounge is hoovered and tidied, toys put away (for now!) and the older kids gone to school!
Ds and I are off to toddlers this morning and then this pm I hope to clean the windows downstairs and do some baking.
Hope everyone has a good day!0 -

Morning all
TGI Friday - it's been a tough week all round.
welcome mum2g1b - oh the cleverness of me I just worked out your username - and a big happy birthday to Hester
dd and dgs still staying with me for a bit which means the house is a tip - was there ever a more distracting timewaster than a 3yo. dd(12), who has gone to school in her pjs this morning, is at Mr Caring Sharings for the weekend so I will have a major blitz tonight and bkaing session.
have a good day everyone and much needed hugs all roundI'm going to feed our children non-organic food and with the money saved take them to the zoo - half man half biscuit 20080 -
:santa2: Good Morning!
DD has a day off work today, they owe her a couple as she has been working so hard! If her migraine has gone, we have planned to go out for our traditional trip to a garden centre for our annual ornament addition for the tree. We also have a cuppa and a mincemeat pie and look for stockingfillers.
After that I'm planning on making cookies and watching a girlie movie with dd while knitting some more dish cloths.
Dinner tonight will be a warming shepherds pie to use up some mince from the freezer and lots of steamed veg.
Have a lovely day!
:bdaycake: :bdaycake: Happy Birthday to Hester and Chipps
