    I'm confused, who's image do we use for the challenge?

    I won't let DS take his ds into school, although some kids do, but I know what little brats some of them are, example someone has stolen DS water bottle today and bitten into it! Why? I have no idea! So safest option is to say no to letting him take it!

    If you want to win the prize you need to use a Robyn's Fetish one but you can use anything you like - hmmmmmm will mention that it's not clear to Jeanette :D I didn't understand it either to start off with
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

    Congratulations to all the winners over the last few days.

    Great news about your GDs from Canada coming for Christmas.

    Rusty - fab cards on your blog. Can you or anyone else tell me how and what you use to attach charms to cards please? In the past I have got some in a stash swap, and bought some pretty butterflies and they appear to have very tiny key rings attached to them. Thanks.

    Flourgirl - sounds like you had a great shop at the craft show at the weekend.

    PONR - I envy you re going to the States again for a while- wish I had an option of going to visit and stay with someone for a while out there

    The sun has been shining here today, so hope it continues tomorrow for my day off, and sorting out teachers gifts for Thursday.
    2016 is the year I am going to find time for me, and cherish the time I spend with my friends and family.
    It is also time to save - Aim £4,000 - So far this year - £230/£4,000

    Erm on the 2 cards I made today I have used dental floss lol ... A fine sewing thread would work well but to be honest you are fine with dental floss!

    Rainmac - you are one busy lady - I don't know how you manage to fit everything in!!!

    Pointofnoreturn - your watches are fabulous - such a clever idea to use them with the beads! Love your bakery bracelet too.

    Artydoll - hope you feel a bit cheerier soon!

    Soma - can't wait to see what you made - the chipboard wreath sounds intriguing!

    Rusty - lovely cards!! I haven't been on the wii fit for a few days - its really awkward with Elliot because often when he's asleep I don't feel like doing it , but then when he's awake he won't leave me alone - I was jogging around the lounge to get away from him last time - and our lounge is really small!!! I was doing about 20 mins in all mainly on the jogging - 123 calories is a fab amount to lose on it though!! I really should get back to it as I'm not losing as much now. 1 stone is quite a lot to lose in a month - I'm probably losing 2 llbs a week - mind you 700 calories is hardly anything - what are you allowed to eat???? I reckon I'm probably on about 1,200.

    Congratulations on your win ************!!!!

    Mad-Frog - gorgeous monochrome card - love that new Marianne die!

    a www bless him! How is he now wih his teeth? Doesn't seem like that long ago I arranged that collection for you!

    I'm supposed to be on 1200 calories but today skipped breakfast and didn't have my 2 Cambridge meals ... I'm supposed to have 150 cal breakfast, which is fruit, then 300 lunch which I have salad and come in under my 300 cals then tea I buy weight watchers meals or have poached eggs and beans this has to be 300 cals swell ... Then supposed to have 80 cals of fruit and 250ml ok skimmed milk and 2 Cambridge meals, but I normally don't have all of my milk, never have my fruit for pudding, and only have 1 meal, trying to cut down on calories this week though as somehow even with how strict I am I gained weight, she thinks it could be water retention though?
