    Lol! Well, it was someone I really shouldn't have been seeing. :o But it was nice, we had a really looooong, in depth conversation about all sorts of things, and time absolutely flew by and we did try to behave and made a fairly good pretence of having no intention of anything else happening but....what can I say....I'm irresistable. :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Oh heck....:eek:

    quiet here today.

    I need to go and get dressed, pack my bag and think about heading out. Wish I had the rest of the day off, but wishing doesn't pay the mortgage. At least I will get tonight's dinner paid for by work, so very DFW ;)

    When I met my hubby he only had a few random chest hairs, I used to joke that he was an advent calendar and I could pull one out each day up until Christmas :rotfl:
    Now his chest is very hairy (and snuggly)

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    My beef smells yummy.

    And I've made cakes

    And iced them

    And made flapjack (which is cooling on the window sill)

    And my roast potatoes are roasting

    And rum and coke are being quaffed.

    Butti, have you thought about companies like TPAS?

    .

    Ames,
    Who are TPAS? I guess that answers the question!
    Thanks,

    Beanielou,
    Thanks for that. I'm always quite conscious of the need to tell people (particularly friends teenage daughters) that I'm very very careful.
