    Not a NSD for me today - needed some petrol on the way home from work and we need to go to Mr T's later for some food - we've not got that much left in the house. One down side to menu planning is that, by the end of the week, there's not much left! Guess that's a good thing, at least we're not throwing away unused food.

    I've also booked myself in to try some wedding gowns next week, so that's something exciting to look forward to :D

    3 days left til Easter hols :j can't wait :D

    I've just ordered a necklace off £bay.... oops! To be fair, it only cost just over £3... :)

    Hi SF

    I am jealous...two days... I am not jealous at all ;) You deserve the break though.

    Sounds like a bargain to me and a nice little pressie to yourself never hurt anyone. :D

    Well done on NSD. Good for you booking in some fittings, best to start and I bet it wont take you long to choose one either. Enjoy it.

    Two days and counting, hope the next couple of days aren't too taxing sweetie.

    Catch you later. ;)

    Thanks footie :)

    Today has been loooong - we had parents evening after school so it has seemed very long. One more teaching day - Friday is a training day.

    Yawn :p Another NSD for me today though.

    Hi there SF

    Your last day in the school building for a couple of weeks. :j Good for you and the weather is so lovely at the moment to start you off.
    Looking forward to hearing about your wedding dress trying on session. :D
