    Sadly our nearest IKEA is 2 hours away, so no opportunity to get the £5 vouchers......would have been nice, though!

    Just saw your latest win on bingo - I am sufferig from a severe drought - over a week since I won a thing......I am due at least a small one, surely :rolleyes:

  • hope baby is more settled now :(

    popped to ikea twice today :o have already spend one of the vouchers on something for DS1 for xmas - will be back there in the morning to meet a friend for brekkie so need to find another stack of books. (it is literally round the corner from me :j)

    good luck with the gold pot dilemma, i decided in the end to do the 342 M&S passion flower goodies for teachers etc so not going to do the pots this year. got about 27 bottles of bath/hand stuff for about 14 quid so that's 9 pressies sorted for next to nothing per person...:money:

    i don't blame shaun for the xmas madness ;), but i'm well and truly in the midst of it. nearly finished!! :p

    have a good night everyone x

    Hmmm - nearly finished my xmas shopping and wrapped loads and loads last week.

    Teething - my DS didn't cut a tooth till 14 months but he teethed from 3 months. The best thing in the world was anbesol liquid from pharmacy its 8 times as strong as bongela and cos its a liquid you dab it straight on. I used it last year on an ulcer it was fab, numbed it straight away

    I have some new mums I work with, and I've told them that in the 22 years I've been doing this job I've never, ever had anyone come in with teething trauma. Its agony to listen to them crying, and for them too to experience it, on all sorts of levels, but it seems to me that as human beings we're kind of physiologically evolved to expect it and cope with it without it overloading us. Small comfort with a baby that won't sleep :o just thought I'd mention it. I'd better get my coat again............. :o

    Good luck to you tonight, DT

  • She actually went to bed early because she was tired and is sleeping peacefully so fingers crossed.

    Missed my bingo win noticed the free game just as I was about to eat and bought the tickets so was surprised when I saw £15 added I did say thank you later always taught to be polite.

    So thats good as bingo has been erratic today I have missed loads of games.

    Out quite a bit tomorrow and Friday and I have my charity display board to reorganise as I am going to the Diocesan conference on Saturday so I definitely need to get my donkey into gear.

    Off to bed now

    Night night all I will catch up on the diaries asap

    DTxx

    Morning DT :hello: I hope baby and you managed to get some sleep last night.

    I had 2 little stocking fillers delivered from Kleeneze last night, so i am now offically on the Christmas trail too. At the end of October i will have enough to buy DS a wii, so will be on the look out for special offers, vouchers and /or cashback :D :rudolf:

    Hope you have a productive day ;)
    One step at a time ;)
  • Early start for me today was in Mr.T's at 7.30 this morning getting stuff for harvest festival. The festive aisle was open today so got the rest of my gold coins.

    Church then took my Mom out for lunch went to a garden centre so she could choose some cards for the occasions coming up this month, they have recenly been taken over by Stermat so they had cheap cooking things as well - so got 3 mixing bowls for my baking hampers - so they are nearly complete just need aprons, cake cases and the cake mixes.

    Saw some lovely gold glasses which would have been lovely for pots of gold but they came with an extra dangly crystal bit and cost £2.99 so too expensive. I have looked on ebay but the postage makes thngs too dear so I will have to keep my eyes peeled

    Well done KC on the bingo win I got close earlier on 2 cards with 1tg for ages.

    Hopeful the first step is the hardest you will soon have it done now you have started - I am really excited about Christmas this year - perhaps because I have got better control of my spending and therefore feel less guilty :confused:

    Nothing exiting on the banking front 35p real money and 25p bonus on the scratchies.

    Lunch tomorrow with my friend has just been cancelled so that means I can spend the time with OD.

    Baby slept well and has not been too bad today.

    Right off to see if I can win at bingo lol

    DTxx

    My keyboard is playing up I have to keep going back and filling in the missing letters so please excuse any strange words it is driving me mad doesn't seem to be any particular letters just random:eek:
