    The back's much better thanks, apart from when I do silly things like pull the heavy sofabed around so that DD and her little chum can both get cosy watching a DVD last night, silly goose!

    I really have no excuse not to get back onto my ultra strict diet now......apart from it's Christmas and there's a mince pie mountain to chomp ;) I think I'm addicted to the little blighters....

    DD's up and watching TV, her friend is still snoozing, bless him, he looked as pale as a sheet when they went to bed last night, so I'm happy for him to stay upstairs as long as he wants.

    Today, I MUST make the gingerbread star biscuits for our friends' drinks party this afternoon and need to get a label for the home-made blackberry vodka for their Christmas pressie. I used an old voddie bottle but couldn't scrape the real adhesive off properly, so need to make a big label to cover it up, lol.

    At the moment I just can't be !!!!!d (blimey, they've updated the rude word checker! I said ar [insert letter here, I used a dollar sign in the hope it would get through!] ed) to get off the sofa and start the day properly, well, it is Sunday :):)

    Hopefully going to get some more DVDs today for selling on, here's hoping. I want to be at £148k by the end of the year and then set myself some challenges for 2010.
