    Happy Birthday Choccibix and Triker's DD

    Get well vibes and good luck vibes being sent out too. Don't feel rough at all today and thats great considering the amount of drink I had last night [not too much - really] its just that since I had kiddies I can't hold my drink at all, all I have to do is smell it and I'm drunk, I'm a nice drunk though cos I lurve the world!!
    Off to update list now and see what I can do but I think I'll be playing catch up tomorrow as I'm on my own for part of the day

    See you all later

    Rosep - sounds like you had a lovely day - the walk has definitely done you good it seems, you must try and continue them...
    Absolutely! Will definitely be doing more walks

    We are going home today :( I don't want to go yet! But we are nearly ready and when I'm home I will be fine. We are going to stop off at my grandparents on the way to see if my Nanny is any better yet. She had an inner ear infection a few weeks ago, it went, and then came back on Tuesday when we were meant to be seeing her. Dandan still came out for a walk with us but I want to see Nanny too while we are over this way.

    We've tidied and packed this morning, just waiting for the last of tumble drying to finish and then we can go!

    I'm still only up to p.29, so apologies if this is out of date
    Holly the photos were amazing weren’t they! I really want to get the book of them for my parents or grandparents or possibly both, but then I will want to keep it for myself!
    Sarah congratulations to your friend, glad the little girl is doing well. I’m jealous of you going to see Stomp, we really want to see them!
    Yorkie well done on paying off your Evans card!
    Hellsbells and Sexy hope you are feeling a bit better now
    Love and hugs to Diva and Lady Liberty

    sexy try and have some time out of your bedroom and have the window open to air it if you can. It's horrible is 'flu - I had it once and I wouldn't want it again.

    I thought that sounded a bit steep :eek:.
  • Hi everyone

    Not been around cos I came home sick from work Tuesday and basically slept til today! Very bad cough and cold and a head full of cotton wool.............yuk.
    I have looked at the lists and there is no way I'll be able to complete any so apologies for that.

    I am going to clean the bathroom kitchen and change the beds and I think that will be it for my non-existant energy levels.......:(

    This has really wiped me out and I think it is doing the rounds as well.........

    Hubby has been looking after me (bless) and there has been a furball or 3 inches from me looking very concerned.

    I hope everyone else is ok and I will pop in later.

    Hugs all round

    1 step xxxxxxxxxxx
    If you wait for perfect conditions, nothing would ever get done! :T
    I'm not short - I'm condensed awesome! :p
