    Morning All

    Welcome to 2010!

    Not sure what's happening today but I think the kids' room will function on it at some point. DH is going to play snooker later so he'll be out for a couple of hours other than that not a lot happening. I'm not sure how DD will be feeling as she keeps saying about it being my cousin's birthday today and everyone will be sad - my cousin who died earlier in the year if you remember.

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    Welcome to 2010 :T

    Freezing cold here but no snow, think we're going out for a walk today so will dress up warm - DH bought me some thermal lined trousers which will be just perfect :j

    Had a !!!!!! start to the year - DH and I were really honest with each other last night. We chatted when we went to bed and I told him that I love him but if it weren't for the children I wasn't sure if we'd still be together. He told me the same thing :(

    Great huh

    Oh dear, sorry to be down

    I just had to look in the mirror to check its me!

    I fed the dogs, then went back upstairs to get my dressing gown. While in my room I opened the curtains, made the bed and bought the dirty cup downstairs :eek: All without thinking about it!! Yay!! :j

    (sorry if that sounds a bit... well.. sad, but it is out of the ordainary for me :p)
