another amazing link to lots of free printables: http://www.graphicgarden.com/files17/eng/print/calend2011e.php

includes calenders, stationary etc

Those are brilliant printables, hope u don't mind put the link on the 1st page - x

They've given me a brilliant idea, the one teacher at dds school, she does the choir, shes getting married 27th Dec, and dd wants to get her something - after peeping at the link - had a brainwave with the recipie cards, - plan to do a small "this happened on your wedding day in years gone by". x

Morning everyone

Bought a sewing pattern this morning for a mans shirt, hoping to make OH some for Christmas. Have been umming and ahhing over it for a week and decided to go ahead. Once I have the pattern I can use it again and again so hopefully will get some good use out of it.

Dont know if any of you remember me saying my eldest daughter and the grand kids have gone to Florida for two weeks hols. I was bored yesterday afternoon and went online to see if any web cams about in Florida so I could see what it was like out there. Couldnt find many and only found one actual live one where things are moving on it, was at a place called Gatorland where they have loads of aligators. Sat there all afternoon watching them swimming about. In the evening phone rang, it was daughter, wasnt expecting her to ring from out there. She was telling me what they been doing and guess where they had been lol, Gatorland, but the day before. I couldnt believe the coincidence, she was laughing saying how they had seen the cameras and had said to her dad I wonder who is watching us lol.

Had nice chat with the kids, they all enjoying them selves. Its daughters birthday tomorrow and grandsons next week so will miss them both.

Off to the local college tonight with youngest daughter, see if they are doing the courses she wants to take next year or not. Catch you all later xx

I am off today from work , sicky and run down

This cold/chest infection is not shifting either.

Anywho

I am going to be doing my English Essay today AND having a proper sort through a list making of my Christmas things. Forgot to add my brothers mug I brought of play.com arrived today! The box looks a bit battered though so may take it out and just add snowman soup and wrap in cellophane. Box makes it looks second hand off a boot sale.

Any ideas where to get pots for pots of gold from? xx
