    Good point Craftyscholar! I was also up till about 1am but then I did get a lie in till about 9.45am :D DD2 had an early morning feed about 4am so slept in. I just feel that I've been lazing all day :rotfl:

    Right think I'm going to go and do a 15 in the lounge now as the children want to do the tree tomorrow but no-one is doing anything till the lounge is tidy!

    Hex great news on selling the car, not an easy thing to do at the mo, DP ended up giving our spare one to his brother as we had no interest

    Huge weight off our shoulders tbh, been fretting about this for weeks. Market is totally dead. We took it to a cash buyer website I found on the internet in the end.

    I risked the old treacle and, judging by the smell, the christmas cakes are ok. We have a mini tin - 4.5" I think, so SS2 (13yo) makes little dundee style cakes for the grandparents. Better than him wasting his money on something else for Granny to dust. On which subject I really must do some dusting :rotfl:

    Livingroom now hoovered and front hall brushed and moped.

    Lil_me thanks but they don't seem to be online, i would have to buy a bm that isn't that popular. It's a Bellini BEBM20 and crap so OH said he would get me a good one for christmas.:rotfl:

    Hope your feeling better soon.

    Right now i'm gonna have a cuppa and see what i can bake tonight.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    Wow again there is too many replies for me to catch up sorry. I feel a lot better today the Xmas decs are slowly creaping into my room and they always make me feel better. I love the whole Xmas thing, I was worried about how to afford to extra decs but luckily my dad got his voucher from work yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

    Hi Pink Fairy yep I am going into hospital on the 3rd dec got my letter today. I have to phone the on Monday to confirm it, then I have to phone on the day I go in to make sure I still have a bed lol. I think that the NHS is crazy lol but praying hard that my bed is still there for me. I so need to get my health back as it looks as though I might be in for a long fight with Sineads daddy.

    I have trawled through a pile of paperwork and carp I have been avoiding for some time and LOTS of it has gone into the recycling. The rest of it has been organised and will be going WHERE IT SHOULD...

    My MACAW needs to be...
    do not clear my desk at work by putting EVERYTHING into a bag and bringing it home. Sort and keep the desk tidy then there will be no panic clearing...

    (I spend 3 days dumping on it then it ALL comes home with me...it is ridiculous)

    Does anyone want to come and bone a chicken for me? Got one to do and I really can't be bothered! Going to wait till Mr G is back though as the knife is sharp :D

    I just have no enthusiasm what so ever to do anything!
