Morning all

Hope Sandy's OK.

Had a busy day yesterday - lots of washing and writing. As predicted, the weather has turned again and it's dull and threatening rain.

I have no plans for today except for foraging for food at some point.

I'm confused but...

I was trying to say that I think your attitude to pregnancy is cool (I don't like the P word at the minute coz I suffer with unexpained recurrent nausea which has reared it's ugly head again....and the first words out of people mouths when I say I feel sick is 'Oh, are you p....'). I'm having loads of trouble with trying to say what I mean at the moment. Must try harder.

It's awful when people don't take a genuine phobia seriously, isn't it? Nice to know I'm not the only one who's like this, but not nice for you to also suffer (Did that make sense??)

Perfect sense. And good luck with your visitors....I bet you spoil them rotton

Sandy:hello: - Where are you honey? Hope your doing okay!

ajmoney - so sorry for your friend, that must have been so hard for her. She must be very glad to have such a kind friend....you definatly were brought up right! Glad to hear oh thingy went ok.

JillD - Evil, mean, nasty spa having person (jealous? me?...never!) I have recently indulged in our local spa and it was heavenly, oh bought me vouchers for christmas and I had a lovely massage and facialy thing. Hope you had a lovely time!

Grateful - thats definatly some karma! It's such a shame for the wee one, but he has definatly brought this on himself (and so did she!)

Sorry if I've missed anyone. *Hugs* for any who feel the need (and I mean any!)

Gonna put a bedding wash on. Looks like some blue out there ao might get them dried on the line....oh exciting! Then gonna have a tidy of kitchen, living room and bathroom, none of which are too bad but my sis and friend are over to discuss weddings so I want it to be nice. Also I need to do some baking coz dad will be bringing them and I'm gonna do some cupcakes coz it's his birthday!

Also need to find some canes for my sweetpeas and get new pots for my sage and....another plant but I forgot what it is.

Right, its just gone 8, HHC in the kitchen methinks. See you all soon!

Morning all

My list for the week is untouched so far, so I'll make a start as soon as I've had breakfast and another cuppa. I can give it until lunch time, then shower and a trip into our little town followed by costco's. DH and DS1 love their ready-cooked BBQ ribs, so that's tea sorted. I don't get them often because they're not cheap, but really good quality. Just not sure what to have with them.

I'm not out tonight, so I don't have to rush back and may get a bit more flying done after the shopping, but I also want to make a start on preparation for next week's lessons. If there are any MFL teachers around, could I ask your opinion about something? I don't want to clutter up the thread with it, so could I pm you?

I've been writing this a bit at a time, so breakfast is almost done now. HHC 8.30 - 9am anyone?

Off I go then.
