Morning all.
Touch of the BD today


Went shopping and cried my eyes out on the way home when that Slipping Through My fingers song from Mamma Mia came on (argh I am off again - waaaahhhhh), it does me in every time. I bought some chocolate cos I felt sorry for myself, have eaten it and now feel sick and guilty as I have SW tonight

Excuse my stupidity but what is BD its been ripping my knittting since I first saw it and was too scared to ask before

I cry every time I watch that part of the film, as she reminds me of my dd

Hope your day gets better from here on in and you get your appointment and give her what for!

Hi Guys

Not caught up at all so i am sorry if i have missed anything.

Hugs for all who need them and special ones for Toots and LL.

I have been to the cattery over the weekend so did a bit of cleaning but not done much here yet.

I have made Pink, Green and Blue sugar ready for reindeer dust making session tomorrow. Need to buy candy canes for snowman soup and thats me done for the Christmas Market next week.

I have done no Christmas shopping at all and not really bothered about doing any not even sure what i have to get. I have a great ds when i ask him what santa should bring he just says a Subaru please Mummy and i can't get anything else out of him.

I am working extras this week but am off at the weekend. I will be starting in the conservatory and working my way to the top of the house.

A friend is about to move into her first flat so the loft is getting a clear out i should be able to kit her out and clear a bit of space in my loft.

I went to a wedding on Saturday night and it was the first night out with the new workmates it was great had a good giggle.

Going to see New Moon on Fri can't wait. Team Jacob lol

Hugs for all will try to keep up ish xx

me too, when I saw it at the cinema I was blubbing like anything, went with sis inlaw who has no kids, she totally didnt get why I was crying and thought I was barmy. Most of the film makes me cry! Ridiculous! Normally I skip past that song on the CD, even DH skips it for me and the kids all know its cos it makes Mummy cry :rotfl:

Hope your day gets better from here on in and you get your appointment and give her what for!

Thanks, its not a bad day really , just my outlook ..... still havent got off the sofa for luinch, DD2 has been playing so nicely but the playroom is now a totall disaster!!!

Right lunch!!!

Thanks but no thanks. I have been mostly ignoring this garden for months which I am going to regret in the spring. I don't mind digging though - at least you can see what you have done. I run a four bin compost system and move everything on a bin every month or so which works well. Mine don't get a huge amount of sun either. Can you shift the top soil ready to put back in? Shame to waste all that work.

I'm going to have to entice you down to hampshire to provide gardening consultancy . I can't really shift the topsoil as there is nowhere to put it. And anyway, it's full of bindweed, so I'm hoping that starting again with the clay will give me fewer weeds (and avoid any issues with the roses & blackspot/rose replant). Don't overdo things, and make sure that your sister looks after you.
