    got some washing dried outside and when i got home I tidied up the sticks(chopped up skirting boards) that were round the back and got them stacked up to keep them drier until my brother can collect them and swept the path - was a bit out of puff after ....oops!!!

    tea - time
    see you later

    Should you be doing this Toots? I do worry about you doing too much xx

    I'm feeling CBA, I hate that it's boring. Think I'll do the hand sewing which has been on my list all week so that I am at least doing something.

    Aw honey your an :A but I put on quite a bit....:o Im always techincally 'overweight' as my supposed 'ideal' weight I think makes me looks like a stick insect....but Im confortable at about 10 stone, which is about half a stone over my 'ideal' weight. But I was just under 12 stone after xmas :eek:

    Ive a little bit more to go, but dont worry, I like my curves and dont want to lose them all.....just my belly and thighs and some of my butt would be fine....... Isnt it a shame you cant pick where we lose the weight from - my boobs always go first :(

    Toots - I haven't heard from froddy since the beginning of the week when she was feeling better but tired. Thanks for the reminder... I have texted her to tell her that she's missed and i'm checking up! I'll update you when I hear.

    Supper is cooking and I'm working my way through the newspaper :D. Early night tonight I think... Sadly I won't make my step count so I WILL have to go for a nice long walk tomorrow to make up for it!

    Brilliant village Valli! But isn't it a bit above and beyond the call of duty? Though I guess you enjoyed making it...

    soappie that was nice of him -getting very MSE you are:D

    Oh, rest assured, he did charge me - but only £1.00 for positively MILES of the things so it did work out cheaper than ordering them online. And I find sausage making VERY therapeutic. You mince up all sorts of stuff (imagining who you like being churned into little pieces as the meat grinds through) then mix it with seasonings and peppers and breadcrumbs and then fill the casings. Not an artificial preservative in sight! It's so easy to do with the attachment on my beloved Kenwood Chef that the kids bought me Christmas before last.

    Pheasant casserole in oven and I must remember to be careful when eating one part of it - I suspect that's where the shot went...

    We have a beautiful large, just about full moon hanging in the sky here. But I guess that means a frost tonight. I think them upstairs were looking after me on my three days away last week. I had no extreme weather to contend with at all.
    I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

    Evening everyone,

    Thanks so much for the Census reminders this morning ... still haven't done it ... but am about too!!!!! Honestly!!

    TOOTS / SOAPIE, Please can I have my final 3 stars .... my house is gleaming after another all day session.

    My wardrobes have never in my entire life been so tidy and organised!!!
    I have also managed to accumulate 14 huge bags of things for car booting plus a massive trunk full of things for ebaying. All towards holiday funds - there's got to be at least £100 from this junk!

    My only other jobs left for the weekend are:

    * wash car (a thankless job)
    * take DD3 shopping for school uniform (she's grown so much!!)
    * clear out shed, make note of hinges needed for outdoors rabbit hutch for when it gets a tad warmer
    * make a batch of twinks
    * food shop
    * guiding census
    * guiding accounts, a lovely helper has offered to do these, so need to get them into order for her to take over them.

    So, off to do this census, shouldn't take too long hopefully as it's mostly done, just needs finished by tomorrow!!!
