    I am hiding from the sergent major off an Officer and a gentleman.......namely my OH, honestly he has turned into some sort of walking machine.

    I didnt feel up to the 6 mile walk today so he went on and on and on at me.......he has gone off on his own with his MP3 player on listening to U2:D

    Supposed to be making the dinner and doing housework *he he he* but I am lounging around on the sofa:cool:

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Linda - What gorgeous children you have!

    What's everyone having for tea - I need inspiration.

    I've just made a huge pasta bake for tea, it'll go in the oven when hubby is setting off.

    I've done a seperate one for me with some tuna and onions in plus TONS of black pepper (I love it) and some philadelphia to make the sauce more creamy :T (the hubby and kids like their's more tomatoey)

    I'm having nothing at the moment. OH is seeing if old Xbox games work on my 360, cos he thinks it's one of the older ones that does. And I'm having to try and find cheap deals for a short break abroad, really need a holiday before I get into the grind of uni work :/

    I've just had my friend I was supposed to go out tonight pop by-with flowers for me-and I am still in my pj's!

    My kids and I have just made oatmeal raisin cookies as well-they are sitting front of the cooker watching them cook. They are having fish in parsley sauce, new potatoes and peas for tea. I will be having dust and air en croute.
