    Morning all! there are two 6 o'clocks in my day today :eek:.
    I've already been round the house tidying.

    Finally got a very uptight OH out the door after he came back 3 times for things he had forgotten - bless him.

    Don't think I'll be able to concentrate as the interview isn't until 1:30 and I have to go to work as well :mad:. Part of me wants him to get it the reat of me is very worried about what it will mean - will just have to see what happens.

    Hope everyone has a good day and hugs to everyone who needs them :D
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

    Rusty - I love your paintings, they look really professional, well done

    Hayley - Happy Birthday, hope you have a lovely day

    Everyone else - hope you all have a nice day too, I'm off shopping again for more bargains, going to a different town today so will be having a look round the big boots.

    Happy Birthday Hayley :T :T :T Hope you have a fantastic day and get really spoilt.

    :bdaycake:

    Rusty, your canvases are absolutely fantastic :T No way I could do anything like that, my Pooh would look more like a lump pf poo rather than the bear ;) :rotfl:

    Paddington - wishing your OH loads of luck :D

    Rufusdog - hope you find lots of bargains :T

    Having my hair cut today and getting Tesco order delivered, loads of washing to do, a card to make and 3 birthday pressies to wrap (all from Jan sales ;)).

    Have a good day everyone and Hayley please have an extra large cocktail for me ;)

    Thank you for the birthday wishes :D And thanks for the piccy Jamtart - yum yum!

    I made my OH get up at about half 7 so I could open my pressies, hehe. Got a voucher for a full body massage (oooh can't wait!) some gorgeous Swarovski earrings that match a bracelet he got me last year and some other bits and bobs. My mum got me a really cool digital camera, it's tiny!

    Okay must got have a shower with all my nice new smellies then we're off out. I will stop being ignorant tomorrow and have a proper read of all the posts and reply :)

    Have a lovely day everyone :D
    :heart: Think happy & you'll be happy :heart:

    Morning everyone

    Happy Birthday Hayley :beer: Glad you are having a day 'in the pink' I keep meaning to go to the local college to get my hair done, have been colouring it myself to save pennies, but its nowhere near as good as when I have it done in a salon....

    Kids are a lot better today, managed to get ds to school, it was difficult as he really tried in on to stay off again, dh spoke to him on the phone and he was in tears saying his tummy hurt, then put the phone down and said 'Dad says I have to go to school, then on the way to get dressed said I am hungry can I have a fried egg on toast :rotfl:(well actually he calls it a dippy egg flat!!) yeah really bad tummy ache that one!!!! followed by a bowl of sugar puffs!!

    Rusty, your canvasses look amazing, dd was sitting on my lap when they popped up and she said 'winnie a pooh and tigger' so at least you know they are recognisable lol...no really they are fab I could never do anything as good as that....maybe it would be a good thing to take up, as you can get the canvas quite cheap, maybe you could do baby ones to go with your nappy cakes..

    Jamtart - Thanks for that pic of the gorgeous ones, I can never make up my mind which one I like best...will have to take them both lol can't believe I havn't been watching this series and only because we missed the first 2 and so since then have been recording the rest, waiting for the first 2 to hopefully be repeated...might have to give in to dh's idea of downloading them...

    Rainmac, love those party bags, I am sure your ds will be over the moon (doesn't he have a talented mummy :T )

    Sugarspun, I would love to see some of your piccies too...

    Good luck paddingtondoos dh...

    Have a good day all...I got a message saying my craftsuperstore order had been posted yesterday, i don't suppose it will be here today, but would be great if it was (My squeezy thing is in it)

  • Just popped in to say Hi, haven't been posting much recently.

    Happy birthday Hayley (I know what you mean about blue days, I seem to be having quite a lot of them myself recently), but I must kick myself up the @**e and stop feeling sorry for myself, I really do have a lot to be grateful/happy about in my life, but I guess we all go through times like this.

    ((HUGS)) to all those who need them and hope all the poorly ones get better soon. Also good luck to those on interviews.

    Well done to all you talented ladies, I love looking at your paintings, handbags, party bags etc.

    Have a good day.
