Chicken - Happy Birthday :bdaycake:

7. OH has started decorating my bra. How wrong does that sound . He looked quite funny last night painting a bra with fabric paint

Tealady- I would have paid good money to see this - did he paint eyes on it??

Your DD is a chip off the old block re a bargain - you taught her well;)

Thank you all all for the birthday wishes ! xx

Belated Happy Birthday chicken
Mhags good to hear your OH is having a home visit, hope it brightens all of you to have him back for a short while
Tealady you're amazing, good luck with the MoonWalk. I'll be there also but supporting a friend, not doing the walk!

1. Woke to a lovely bright morning, almost 36 hours dry weather so made up my mind to mow the lawn when I came back this afternoon
2. Out for lunch with friends courtesy Mr T vouchers, started with chilli king prawns, went on to gratin d'aubergine for the main and finished tarte tatin with vanilla ice cream. It didn't scupper my weight loss plan though cos I didn't have any potatoes
3. Went window shopping afterwards but a shoe shop was open, so got a pair of deck shoes in a sale, £10 off the £14 price tag
4. There was a £1 shop, I never have the opportunity to go to one but was very restrained, only spent £3 on necessities
5. No petrol day, I didn't drive
Not a pleasure - it rained while I was out so lawn still not been mown

Sleep tight

Happy birthday CHICKEN! Hope your day was very special and the coming year is filled with much success and happiness x

Happy Birthday chicken

mhagster - hugs to you and your OH as you go through this beastly time, hope that you have a lovely day with him xxx

1. Very spendy day - I bought a bicycle from a French named sports shop miles away from home, long drive but worth it for a bike that is much better than the H*lfords same-priced one. Now to make sure I can actually ride the darned thing....I have to put my bad foot on the pedal oddly to be able to ride as I can't bend my ankle very well, but I'm hoping that it will get easier with practice, keep your fingers crossed for me, otherwise DD has a grown up bike awaiting her in a few years' time!

2. Bought DD a fab purple coat which she lurves

3. Cheapy lunch at Co$tco, yummy baked potato and beans, nomnom. Huge, cheap and healthy (as DD has put me on a diet)

4. Nice chat with OH on the phone, he's feeling rubbish at the moment, I think more down to coming off a drug he's been on for 8 years than anything else, so I've not seen him since Friday morning....but I know he lurves me so that's okay

5. No guitar lesson today but DD has promised me we will have 2 tomorrow

6. Managed to get a load of washing out and dry on the line

7. Have made fairy cakes for tomorrow night's Rainbows and there was enough cake mix left to make a flying saucer of a cake for DD to chomp on, not me of course what with my diet

8. Only spent £7 in Co$tco on tinned tomatoes, bananas and potatoes, managed to bypass all the yummy but calorific things.

Mhagster - hope things pick up for you soon

Kittikins - keep pedalling, and keep talking about guitar lessons - I am feeling inspired to start practising the piano again

Hugs to everyone else - whether you need it or not

For yesterday

1. Singing my head off to the radio 1 chart of the millennium, whilst doing my chores. SUch a random mix of S club, Eminem, X factor songs and "Don't ya wish your girlfriend was hot like me" as I pushed the mop round the kitchen floor :rotfl:
2. Getting the ironing done - it has been looking at me from a corner for a few days
3. Going for a walk with OH when he got in.
4. DS asking if he could do a bit of ironing. He is only 13 but wanted to have a go. There's hope for that boy...
5. A soak in the bath, reading up on where we should visit when we go to the States in the summer - exciting :j

Invigilation this afternoon - groan - have a good day all.
