Hope you feel better soon FFP.
Just watched neighbours whilst eating my yummy vegetable stirfry and noodles, and have just eaten a yoghurt as well for my lunch. Had better go and do the washing up now then so that I keep my earlier promise to do it straight away.
Will do a HHC when I've finished that.Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.I married Moon 8/4/2011, baby boy born 26/9/2012, Angel Baby Poppy born 8/11/15, Rainbow baby boy born 11/2/20170 -
