I've had toasted jammy muffins.
I made Jess some toast, 2 buttered, 2 jammy and put them side by side on her plate, when I took it into her she said "Mmmmmm, that's just how I imagined it, well done Mummy!"
patronising little git! :rolleyes:
Elliot has set off to the park with his mate.
...Linda xxIt's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0 -
Elfen, you might want to have a look at this site - http://www.anythingleft-handed.co.uk/acatalog/child_left_handed_pens.html
I use to be left handed until I was 8 and then my teacher decided that I should be right handed, my parents went mental. I blame her for my confusion with left and right!
I love the book Mrs Dalloway - The Hours is good too.
Big hugs for Jacs, he will be home before you know it.
Keep smiling everyone.

Went running yesterday and 5 miles in needed a pee...trudged down a little lane to yellow the snow, but there wasnt much cover as the trees/bushes are bare so had to crouch right into bush...
Sadly it was a thorned bush and it attacked me and I now I have lovely scratched across one of my bum cheeks...ouch!!!0 -
Scratches across your bum and you expect us to believe it was a bush..? :rolleyes:"Follow the money!" - Deepthroat (AKA William Mark Felt Sr - Associate Director of the FBI)
