    I saw some 'jeggings' in M&S today but they had a button fastening on the waistband, I always thought the point was they were denim leggings or have I misunderstood???????
    I do love mine although have chunky legs am not bothered, as not daring enough to wear shorter tops as some do always wear longer line ones. Though again with the ones I've had one they want to go down around my hips but I prefer them a la bridget jones and up as far as I can so end up pulling them up

    I got some jeggings....(well I thought that's what they were and that's what DD said they were, so they probably are) in Next last week. They have a button fastening and a zip and are " Long " length and I love them. Have worn them 3 times this week so far (that's so me..total overkill) They are a great fit and a la Bridget Jones so very neat around the middle. I've worn them with 3/4 dresses and wedges, which means I've been skimming 6' this week, but hey! My tummy is my dodgy bit but these jeggings have got matters under control there!

    I really love how the proper denim jeggings (not the denim coloured leggings) hold it all in round the tummy, it's so hard to get rid of that saggy tummy after being pregnant, well it is for me!

    That bag is lovely Daisy - and thanks for your address.

    Where has the evening gone?? Off to bed to read- 3/4 of the way through the 2nd book in the Millennium trilogy (of Girl with Dragon Tattoo fame).

    Not sure I'm entirely following the plot, but a good read.

    Nighty night.

    Where has tonight gone?! I planned to be so productive. I didn't get anything on ebay *hangs head in shame* but it's all sorted for me to do after the gym tomorrow. I also fell asleep for an hour!
    Hope everyone has a nice day tomorrow, wish the weather would cheer up.

    love the bag DB, it's adorable.

    Trying to watch people talking about politics but it's going over my sleepy head. Brain's much happier looking at cute bags :D

    Tsabo i don't blame you for having a lazy evening, plenty of time for ebaying tomorrow :)

    Ooh forgot to say I love the bag DB. There is nothing wrong with retail therapy! Also nothing wrong with slight seconds. My Hunter wellies are supposedly seconds and i'm yet to find out why.. they are indentical to my friend's who paid £40 more.

    It's not even like I had a lazy evening like planned! I made tea, took the dog out, fell asleep, chatted to my mum and then suddenly it's 11?!

    I know no-one cares what you look like at the gym.. but i'm trying on outfits for tomorrow. :o I'll look such a sweaty mess anyway so i'm sure it doesn't matter. Think i've settled on 3/4 black trousers and black top with cherries on and Pacha on the back.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    It's so beautiful this morning, but the frost was so very heavy! I can't brig myself to check out the garden for damage.

    My chicks are growing up so quickly. I'm able to spot one who is definitely the daughter of our old cuckoo hen, as she too is getting cuckoo markings.

    And, I have a cold.Not a bad one, but still, a cold. My parents have seen to see this as carte blanche to point out, frequently, how cold I'll b come autumn in the new house. LOL.

    We've been trying to remember what we own. I'm pretty sure I gave away, or y mother on my behalf, gave away all my white goods when Iwas ill, and DH has none. They would have been very old now anyway, I'm slightly frustrated about the spent but not annoyed other people got the benefit from them So I'm going to keep my eye out for a refurbished electric cooker: it really doesn't need to be fancy but I think I'll try and get a new washing machine. Here we have two washing machines, one for animal stuff, one for our own. Its great because the pet hair doesn't get on human stuff, so we can look relatively un pet haired, sometimes. :)

    So today after all the stress and excitement, I'm going to have a ''recovery day''. pottering around, quietly, lots of resting, making lists of things I need. Also a family friend has suggested I make a list of fruit trees, she'd like to give us a couple as a house warming gift, and thinks other people might want to give things like that too, and that I should have a variety that I want to grow ready to say if I'm asked.
