    Afternoon all

    Well it is the new year and I hope it is a happy, peaceful, successful one for us all. It was good having a friend here last night (her DH was working til midnight). We just chatted and had a nice time. Miss A stayed up but W went to bed about 9pm.

    LL that poem is so apt, those dashes are SO important just wish DH's was not so short :( Seen to be even further away from him now we are in a new decade.

    Ditto that serena, I have been fortunate enough to meet some of my new friends from here and hope to meet more this year :)

    And with that I shall declutter myself to the shower!

    Hope you all had a lovely Christmas and my best wishes to all for a great 2010.


    Toots never managed my washing challenge although I only have one or two item in the basket so I'm pleased all the same. Hope you are good honey x

    Hugs mumof2.

    Well so far it's been a crap start to the year. I normally be in bed long before 12 but my sister and BIL called up last night and didn't leave until 3.30 this morning. Hubby and BIL both had quite a few drinks so hubby is still in bed and say's he has a sort tooth as well. So needs his sleep. Of course when i wanted to go to bed last night it was 'wait till i finish my drink' but what he seems to forget is that i get up with the kids in the morning not him.:mad:
    Throw in he forgot to bring in coal so i'll need to do that to get the fire lit. Then our lovely dog took the runs in the hall so it's covered in poo.:mad: Hubby won't clean it as he has a hangover and i'm not to sure how the heck to lift it without me puking.

    Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
    Big hugs vanilla - not my kind of morning eeergh

    You might feel you are further away but I'll bet he's closer than you think x

    So far I have
    showered, dressed etc
    emptied TD
    Folded all washing and reloacted to respective rooms
    Collected more dirty washing to start again

    No message from DD's friends mum so maybe they aren't up yet :p

    Cant do any of the bedroom as Dh is asleep but I am sure I can find something on the list to do, is coffee on there somewhere :rotfl:

    Oh and next door have got numerous grandchildren staying running up and down the stairs :rolleyes: guess thats how noisy we are normally :eek:
