Just got back from the gym and managed not to fall off the treadmill this time, going to take BF to work in a moment then I am off to book myself in for a tattoo x x x
I am a bit old :rotfl: We started off well til OH decided to come in and put a nappy on her :mad: :mad: :mad: I asked why he did it and his response was because she hasn't got one on and she doesn't know how to use the potty .... :rolleyes: my response was she isn't likely to if you don't let me teach her :rotfl: We had our first wee in the potty so I am a very proud mum(see how exciting my life is!)

Jammy - thanks for updating, makes it look more when its written down doesnt it.
Shevs - what tattoo are you having? I had my first tattoo last year for my 50th birthday present!! You will probs all laugh but I had the Arsenal crest put on my arm as its something I have always wanted since I was a kid. Its got some blue tribal round the outside too and is one of the best presents I have ever had. I have since had another one done on my leg at the bottom which is a small black cannon, again for Arsenal. I'm afraid butterflies and flowers which a lot of women go for just wouldnt suit me lol and I love my football.
My other favourite present was also for my 50th, I asked all my family to buy me a small gold charm of their initial and I am gradually having them soldered onto a gold charm bracelet. I have had about 12 put on so far and its costing me about £13 a time for 3 charms so only get them done once a month. I have another 9 to go but still need to get some more intials until in the end I will have a bracelet of my whole family's intials.
Had another £5 Amazon voucher today from Bingoports, not sure what to put it towards yet as already got OH some new dvd box sets for his bday and he told me the other day he dont really want dvds as he thought I would be getting him something special as its a special bday lol. Well hes got his photo album so I am hoping hes not expecting anything too lavish.
Have nearly finished another knitted jacket for one of my grandsons for xmas, just half a sleeve and the neck band to go then sew in a zip and can start on the next one.
Its my birthday next week and was hoping oh might get me a camera as it was all I asked for when he asked me but from what he has been saying it doesnt sound like hes got me one. Means I will have to put my birthday money from my Dad towards one and find the extra as I really could do with one then I can start selling on Ebay again.
All for now, catch you later xx0 -
RUFUSDOG Im getting a tribal style heart done on my wrist, booked in for next friday at 10.30. Its going to be my second 1, had the first one done on my foot last August and that hurt like hell there x x x0
