    Kitchen sink cleaned and polished up with a dry cloth.
    3 of my 11 items on ebay now have bids on them, so a little more money for the hol fund, but they have another 2 days to go.

    Off to work have a good day, hugs to anyone who needs them, and hi to any newbies.

    My sincere apologies MissH. It's rectified now. You need to understand that it's not the REAL Toots doing these things at the moment, it's her slightly incompetant PA. xx

    Morning all,

    Hugs for Froddy and soappie - hope you both feel cheerier soon. Well so far today, breakfast eaten, bed airing with the window open, one load of washing put in the WM, and I'm up and dressed. Colleague is coming at 9 to do planning but hopefully will be gone by lunchtime, so that I can go to the Boots Christmas Advantage Card event near me - this is the first time it's been held here I think, so I'm looking forward to it. Then after that, there'll be a mad rush home, eat dinner, and then off to plan for spring at other colleagues house tonight at 7pm.

    Anyone fancy a HHC 8.20-8.50?

    Hugs to all,

    sexymouse xx
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.
