Jassa - congratulations! Enjoy being debt free xx

I had done a long post but I've lost it....grrrrrr!!!!!

Hugs SSL - how about sending a 'congratulations on being up your own ar**s' card. Sorry:o.

I can't remember who mentioned not having an immaculate house. Mine's certainly not immaculate :rotfl: perish the thought!:rotfl: My children, dogs and hubby make sure of that (ok, and me too!!). I'll forever be trying to keep on top of it but just for a few hours this afternoon it was as perfect as I like it. Since then it's slid somewhat:rotfl: but I'll get there again!

DH came in from work and announced that we were going to do a lidl and tesco shop to get it over and done with. Did I mention it was also to include the children!!! Oh what fun! Still, all shopping done, all presents done.

So, Monday's list completed!

Now to see what Tuesday has in store xx

Heh heh...nows there's a gap in the market :rolleyes::rotfl:

Oh, and I got a lovely Christmas card from DD. 'To Mum and her Boyfriend.' Inside, she has added the word 'awesome' before boyfriend *sniff*

Right, I think I have disrupted the thread enough for today

Night night...thank you all for your kind words. I love you all xx

Dont usually post this time of night but been busy trying to get star for today. Am out tomorrow from about 8am til 8pm so highly unlikely to get anything done or be able to catch up here. Wednesday is my Birthday but got vets appt and many other things I must catch up on but would like to say now – in case I don’t manage to get here before – a very Merry Xmas to all and a big thank you for giving me the motivation to get house sorted.
Oh and
Jassa – well done on the debt free. That is the best thing that any of us could have

Toots – Hope you are feeling less tired tomorrow
