I'll be back in later in the week - have had a horrid viral thing all weekend and think it'll take time to shift it. Don't know where to put myself, and rather fed up of a certain room if you get my drift!
Am off work tomorrow as a days leave - so maybe if I stay in the warm it'll improve. We'll see..
So will lurk but probably that's it for now - except myabe make a big to do list for all the stuff I wanted to do this weekend and haven't been able to.
MoamAlthough no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.

Problems deciding what to buy DS for Christmas seem to be over. He's come up with a couple of things - scrum hat and rugby gloves and Star Wars game for PS2. I'll also get him a watch. So I think I'll go into town on Thursday when the M&S sale is on and buy them, and also PJs for DH and new fluffy dressing gowns for all. That should be it then for me :j:j
Right, off to put the kettle on and go up to bed with my canvaswork. Probably have to shift LO out of my side of the bed though before I can get in :rotfl:0 -
Well apparently (dictionary has been consulted) either spelling is acceptable
organization organisation
Think I will go with the s...IMHO it looks better...
Not so American - z is usually American way, so I always go with the s... (spellchecker on word sometimes picks american way too...)...
I'm in again - thanks Pigpen, I am so sick of DS's room so will attack it tomorrow when he is at School - and pile everything on his bed for him to put away (after I have thrown away all the carp and science projects that are 'growing' in there...:rolleyes: )... Mmmm, actually looking forward to it...:p
