    Morning budgie, jo and fay!

    I've bought some fresh fruit and veg for the diet starting on Monday

    I popped into B+M's and picked up a new doormat and plant pots then called into HOmebase and found a sorry looking Blueberry plant for 1.26 which I snaffled and will care for this year and see if it fruits next year.

    I've been uhmming and ahhing about getting one of these plants but the prices put me off from £10-£13 so pleased and will care for it and see if it recovers

    All washing done and it has clouded over. LR cleaned, now off to clean to bathroom and bedrooms then off to potter in the garden this afternoon planting some more seeds and clearing some space ready for some plants next year.

    Must remember to take something out of the freezer for tea and for tomorrow.

    Really can't spend all day on here! - better dash off shortly and crack on with things!

    My DD1 has just come home from work with the biggest bouquet (sp) of roses, each one with a diamonte (sp again) in it, handed to her by the florist whilst DD1 was serving a queue full of customers :rotfl: they all waited for her to open the card to find out they are from a secret admirer :eek:

    She was mortified :rotfl:

    Hi all, hope you are all having a nice weekend...was pleased last night as I shared a bottle of wine with dh and there was more on offer, but although I could of had some more, I stopped and realised I felt like I had had a lot more than 1/2 a bottle and didn't 'need' to have any more...I did get woken by dd in the night though and felt like carp, just as if I had been out on a right bender :(...am fine today though :)

    DH is making curry for tonight for us and ds with all the trimmings (popadums etc..) yum...so doubt I will be af tonight...

    Sim - How are you now? please keep posting on here to let us know how y ou are x

    Jo.....ahhh bless to your DD, does she have any idea who they might be from?

    Another productive day again for you eh Sparkles....I have at least put the hoover round and cleaned the bathroom, however DS is now plastering the front room with blue tacked pictures for his 'Club' that he has started and apparantly begins tonight at 8pm (luckily on me and dh and ds in said club so far) oh and it's 'spy' club so we have lots of James bond type of pics up!!

    Miss P, great news on the dress front, hope things are going well with you and your oh's daughter this weekend xx

    Evening everybody!

    Quiet on here today? Hope everyone is having lovely Saturdays?

    I have a VERY happy stepdaughter. She had a fantastic morning shopping with my SIL. She has a VERY pink prom dress with diamantes etc on it. Looks beautiful. I think my SIL is fabulous.

    I also had a good day (apart from the dreaded haircut - yes I did look like a demented granny by the time she finished...think she hates me!!:rotfl:) Came home from Mums bearing plants: 4 tomatos, dahlias, 8 pepper plants and some green things that I can't remember what they are!! My little plastic greenhouse is absolutely packed!

    Am going to be AF tonight - feel bit tired and am looking forward to nice bath.

    Jo - isn't your D lucky! Must be lovely having a secret admirer. I think my OH has forgotten interflora exists!!:rotfl::rotfl:

    Miss P
