    Hi everyone

    Today is a NSD, 14 so far, not doing as well as I'd hoped but got an opportunity I couldn't pass up and went to the BBC film studios on Sunday to watch John Barrowman filming his new show, I was on the end of the 3rd row from the front where he spent alot of the time standing during the evening so was very happy. He's such a funny man and so bubbly! Everytime I meet him I'm surprised at his energy and how much fun he is! Had a fantastic, fantastic, fantastic night!

    x x


    aaaghhhh Jealous? Me? Pah!!!!!! You lucky lucky thing!!!!

    I've only ever seen him in the flesh once, at Andrew Lloyds Webbers party in the park thing last year, & he was the size of a matchstick from where we were!! Ooohhh.....love him!!!!

    *rushes off for a Torchwood fix lol*

    Today I have:
    1. Done my online shop - utilising the £15 off voucher emailed to me by Sainsbury's, as I've not used them in a while:T
    2. Looked after my niece & nephew (aswell as 2 of my 3 children) and resisted the urge (and the nagging:rotfl:) to take them to an indoor play place - would have cost me around £12-15 for 4 of them:eek:. Instead we had lunch at home then went to the park - they had a fab time & were worn out - free of charge!! I even remembered (for once) to take a big bottle of juice & cups, and a flask of coffee for me!!!
    3. Dried a load of washing on the line:T
    4. Turned the heating off (witout DH's knowledge;)- he gets cold bless him) and only turned it on around half an hour ago to warm the house up a touch!!

    Evening All!!
    hope everyone is ok, SM - hope you are feeling better.
    hugs to everyone feeling down.

    Nearly managed another NSD but OH not gone back home as expected (long distance relationship) so didnt get to do weekly shop and ended up at takeway!!

    so feel a little behind with things like weekly shopping/meal planning etc!!

    done the usual this evening while the OH watches the football,
    daily clicks and scratch cards, heating turned off!!

    have a lovely evening and i hope to get back on target tomo! :T
