yay done all the 31st ending, wasnt too bad, just zoomed through it:rotfl:
hugs tmk xx
happy birthday bella xx0 -
Awwww thanks but I'm fine, honestly
He asked me what I wanted and I said a puppy, haha!! Needless to say I didn't get one. But he did offer to get me something a couple of weeks back and I couldn't think of anything. Then Jamie dropped the bombshell about his job and rent being due so any spare cash went there. Kids said they'll get me one anyway for my birthday at end on Jan so I'm back on hoping alert again!!!!

TMK, feel sad for you but it sounds like there is a lot of love in the family and I am sure you got more than gifts sharing your day together. Glad you sound OK about it.
Finished comps ending 31/12 which took me about 5 days, so am really relieved. OH made me a vodka and cranberry concoction earlier and as I don't drink I'm now ready to call it a night - that's why I never touch alcohol, it just sends me off to sleep! Cheap date!!!
Hope all had a very peaceful Christmas and Bella had a lovely birthday. Sweet dreams everyone.But there are dreams that cannot be,and there are storms we cannot weather!0 -
