Morning all

Lil-me - how sweet of that author to ask to sign the well loved book too..

I'm going to have a less busy day today I think. I shall tackle the bathroom at some point and do the front room today - it needs a Dyson. I had managed to get a tissue in one load of washing yesterday so there are little bits all over the floor there which I shook off as I hung the clothes up on the airer.

And I ought to write my Christmas cards.

Today is normally the day my tree would go up BUT the joiner is starting the flooring on Wednesday and the carpet has to be lifted and as much furniture as possible has to be moved into hallway and DD's room so I can't put it up

So far, i have fed & collected 2 lots from TD

Wrapped remaining christmas baskets
Caught up on i-player programmes
decluttered 3 cups of coffee and a HM mince pie

Am just going for a HHC before the madness starts in here if anyone wants to join me from 9am

I'm another one for 'proper fitting shoes'. DH's nephew's 1st birthday was in March so I asked toxic twin and his wife if we could buy his 1st shoes. Wife was delighted, so we had a trip to the specialist shop in the next town (me, DH, toxic twins wife and nephew) and £30 later he had proper shoes that his mum got to choose.

Hugs Valli and DD we lost our last gerbil a couple of months ago, DH was gutted the most as it was him that fed and cleaned him. We inherited him and his brother from one of DS's exgirlfriends as her cat didn't like them!! We had them for over 3 years, which is amazing as they usually only have a short life

Morning ladies,

We have half an hour before leaving for church - so joining the HHC a bit late!

Have just realised that a friend's birthday is Tues not Thurs :eek:
I've got the card and could easily have posted it end of last week (well I could have if I hadn't had a massive dose of CBA) I don't like winter normally but it really seems to be slowing me down this year.

Morning All

I didn't get a lot done yesterday as I ended up with a migraine - feel a bit better this morning but it's lingering a bit. We're supposed to be popping into Hanley for an hour this morning and then putting the decs up this afternoon.

Have a good day all

Hugs
