Well done WBR :j

Padster, blimey those are pretty tough questions . Sending you big hugs and I am another that believes honesty is the best policy (unless you are owning up to how much craft stash you've bought and then I think it's best to lie all the way)

Rusty, the car hasn't been written off, it needs about £7k + VAT of work done to it and the garage has said it will take 4-6 weeks

Flourgirl, a shift for stash sounds good to me How's your foot btw?

Big hello to Furrypig xxx

Hugs to all feeling under the weather xxx

My big chap is back off to school tomorrow starting in year 2 so I will have 2 days with DS2 and then Thursday and Friday ON MY OWN!!! DS2 wants to go and see Marmaduke tomorrow as I took DS1 last week when DS2 was at preschool. I am just wondering if I can sit through the same film twice??? If I could take come colouring with me I'd be fine but I can't as it's dark

I start my morning childminding 'job' on Wednesday, I am now dreading it as my lot are so carp at getting up and getting ready in the mornings (OH included when he's here). The poor girl is going to think I am a witch the way I have to shout at my boys to get them going. I regularly have to threaten tI will take them to school naked if they don't get dressed in 2 minutes

Rainmac - I am so suprised that they are willing to repair £7k+ wprth of damage! I am the same with the threats of taking them to school naked if they don't hurry it works a treat! Good luck for wednesday! :j

Evening all.

Congrats craftygranny :j

Congrats to all those littlies who conquered first days back at school!!

DS is still at home and goes back on wednesday ... as for DD I have managed to lose the paperwork telling me when her induction is :rotfl: I think it is this thursday at nursery then she doesn't start until the 20 somthing?

can't remember everything I have read, sorry I have had a mad day trying to restock the cupboards and get ebay stuff posted out and also my emergency trip to the dentists I have another abcess luckily it is in the roof of my mouth so it isn't too painful but I am scared it might move into my teeth! Swallowing is killing me! hope everyone else is ok?

omg I've just done something really stupid... I have entered my Black & White card in 2 sisters challenge and put the title of my card in the linky instead of my name :rotfl:

I have spent the best part of the day making DD a personalised birthday card. I saw a few on ebay, magazine style ones which looked ace so thought i'd give it a go.
I am not so quick at word art, formatting etc, but got there in the end. I did stop on & off, school runs etc but took me longer than I'd planned.
Her etsy birthday gifts are a no show thus far!!!!!

Hi all,

I did manage to catch up on blogs earlier but been busy sorting things out ready for school tomorrow. I'm a bit behind as I was in and out of hospital yesterday and today. Doc's have said I'll live a bit longer. :rotfl:

Thinking of you Rusty - Abcesses really hurt - ouch.

Very well done Flourgirl on the guest designer spot - I can't wait to see what you made.

CT1972 and Dragonllew did you receive your packages yet? CT your's was posted Friday or Saturday so I hoped it would have been there by now.

Jazabelle will follow your blog in a minute. I have your address and will send something for the Christmas fayre too. I hope it helps.

PONR - I hope you have a fun day today and get all your bargains.
