  • SummerMoon - hugs

    Didn't get caught up yesterday so hugs to any other poorly/stressed out there.

    Remember pigpen's reminder about having 'me' time? Maybe that applies to xmas presents as well. If your OH thinks you should have a present for you just like the rest of the family maybe he has a point.!!!

    OK I need a plan.
    Wash and dress
    Get WM going
    Write xmas cards
    Sort xmas presents
    Add card to on-line bank facility (I've got to use the 'reader' they sent and I've been avoiding going near it)

    DS has come home from uni for a quick visit which is lovely, going back tomorrow morning.....so flying on hold here today so we can spend some quality time with him........unless I'm a mean Mum & ask him to join in.

    Morning all, have been up a while but not as long as some of you!

    So far i've sorted a pile of photos which need sending to different people. have also wrapped and packed card & present for friend who just had a baby girl. Another friend had a baby boy on friday but I'm going over there on Friday so will hand deliver theirs.

    Just watching last night's casualty whilst DH is asleep...think he might be starting with a cold which is always causes him bad sinus probs so I really hope he's not getting one.

    summermoon - hugs and hope the hibernation helps.
    julie - poor you, nightmare. men are worse than kids sometimes...

    Morning all

    Have only skim read the thread - hugs to all who are poorly - well done Summer on the new job - hope your cold clears v. soon.

    Anyone else hear on the news about Irish pork being recalled? I'll have to dig around my freezer - I'm sure I've got some Richmond pork sausages in there....

    Yesterday was a wasted day mostly. Went to the auction but town was heaving so there was nowhere to park so I came back home again without even stopping! Still, it stopped me spending anything I suppose.

    I then got lost in Mindjolt games on facebook :o for far, far too long.

    I did manage to do Mr T and cook us steak for dinner (DS's request - it's so rare that he actually comes up with something when I ask him what he wants for dinner, that I have to do it!) but that was about it really. DD came over in the evening and sat around waiting for her bloke to finish work - it was lovely to see her. She wants me to teach her to cook!

    Anyway, enough of this sitting here schlepping about - after yesterday's wasted day, I need to do serious flying today!

    Morning folks

    So far
    Ironing done
    Floor swept
    Downstairs hoovered
    Been in loft for a suitcase
    Watched the birds on the bird feeder
    Eaten toast

    OH has gone out 'shopping' muttering as I haven't bought him anything for Christmas, he won't tell me what he wants, and if I do buy anything, I just so know I will be given it back as it is not designer enough / expensive enough / right brand etc etc, so it is easier to buy nothing!!

    Have a good day

    Hugs for those that need them
