    Ooh did I tell you I have a super duper luxury christmas pudding in my cupboard. It has been discovered (by my mum) that when the stores put out their xmas puddings they have a shelf life of 15-18months so this ones in date until march 2010 at least - bought in January, in Mr Ts at a bargainous price....Tesco Finest with booze if I remember rightly...
    (and I don't do xmas dinner here remember, so I shall take this wherever we do go as a contribution muhahahahahah)

    I could cry
    thats all

    :(
    Love is the answer. At least for most of the questions in my heart,
    Like why are we here? And where do we go?And how come it's so hard?
    It's not always easy,And sometimes life can be deceiving,
    I'll tell you one thing, its always better when we're together

    Phunkles reminded me of Eeyore!!

    Valli, I still have a christmas pudding in the cupboard from well.. christmas! I was going to eat it but I will have to see when it expires now. Might still eat it though hahaa!! Your poems are fabtastic :)

    Janeym8 I do things like this ALL the time.. and if it is not me putting the kettle in the fridge then it is one of the kids putting my craft mags in the washing machine. I bet it is wonderful to have your daughters back home again. I would set a specific time that is yours and tell them you need that room for then. It is unfair to not be free to do what you like!

    No preseents no party - I love Eeyore he's my favourite!

    I do strange things as well - thought it was just me losing my marbles - I lost the mini marshmallows for DD's birthday party and found them in the fridge!
    Last night I was putting the washing away and took a clean tea towel out to the bin and left the rubbish in the kitchen.
    I also nearly made my coffee in the jar rather than in the mug!

    I blame it on an overdose of oven cleaner - should never have done it :rotfl:

    Its a well known fact that Oven Cleaner (or cleaning ovens) can have that effect:)

    mel - have a look at the flannel snowman link and have a go at it.......maybe yours will actually look like a snowman.......mine didn't:mad: but I'll not give up:rotfl:

    Refreshing to know that I'm not the only one who does stupid things:
    pays for shopping and leaves shop without it
    Go to bank -leave cash withdrawal on counter
    Collect pension -leave card on counter then panic the next week when I can't find it (I'm not the only one -P.O. girl had to sift through quite a few to find mine.............lol)

    Thats without the usual going upstairs and forgetting what for.........making lists and forgetting where they are etc. etc.:rotfl:
    Mary

    I'm creative -you can't expect me to be neat too !

    Afternoon Everyone

    Just a quickie, any of you trying to make up poems, I just found a good site where you can put in a word and it tells you all the words that rhyme with it, saves you sitting there thinking for hours.
