  • Just spotted your thread & feel like a kindred spirit! I'm a titchy bit older than you, but 3 DD's all in Colleges/Uni. to be fair, oldest has just left, & found a job, but is hoping to go back in Sept to do a PHD!! where did i go wrong? OH is around, we run a small business together, o/sdebt is similar to yours also & need to lose a dress size or 2 as i am 5'1 & size 14 is a tad to big to carry off with my little legs...... so will watch & post & be heartily cheered by all you lovely peeps on this post.
    PS happy b'day for yesterday(?) Mine is in a couple of weeks

    Love Suzi xxx
  • Woohoo! Someone older than me:j welcome Suzi, goodness three DD's too:rolleyes:
    Nellis how many hours can you going between looking at your spreadsheet?
    Sister Lewbs I hope you enjoy your mexican, I had a mexican evening a few years ago told my friend to dress up.. they all came in ponchos big hats and moustaches, we had chilli, I told them to bring a home made cactus, they were inventive- had modelling balloons and courgettes with cocktail sticks stuck in etc, we played pin the tash on the amigo, killed a pinata and whenever I played the mexican national antham (which I downloaded) we had to down a tequila complete with salt and lemon. Funny thing was the whole evening started because I wanted to make a pinata with papermache that I'd seen on artattack- RIP Tony Hart that was a good night:beer:
    No work tomorrow:D just a walk into town for a chat at costa, the weekly shop then help my youngest decorate a corset for her show:p
