    hi everyone
    sorry if anyone is struggling with the demon drink today but always remember you wont wake up tommorow morning wishing you had drank today, its fab not waking up with one of those monstrous hangovers,
    my son (who for some reason has found a new hobby in cooking) is making the worlds most fattening chocolate/fudge cake i've ever seen! im going to have to watch my food intake for the rest of the week after eating a huge chunk, it would be rude to just have a small slice. :)

    Hello,

    I am getting stressed now, trying to read and DD is getting bored. I know it is not fare for her but I am running out of time and really really need to put my head down. My friends had her for couple of hours and that did help a bit but now that I got into the flow just want to carry on.

    Also found the most beautiful and perfect dog for me but unfortunately I can't afford to pay the rescue centre fees so have to pass on that one.

    DD is sticking stickers on her magazine so I better take the opportunity and continue. Hope all is well and not too much bell tolling.

    Thanks yellowmonkey - I'm just waiting for the aubergines to finish roasting, then it'll be into the final straight before I can have a good scoff...Managed to get through the massive urge to go out and am probably too pooped to do so now.....

    Well done.......:T

    No bells ringing for me and declaring AFD 6 tonight Miss P!

    Managed to run out inbetween the heavy rain to sow beet, radishes, spring onions, salad leaves, beans and peas - running out of room shortly!

    Really pleased with how much I have managed to get done this weekend in the garden and now feel more relaxed instead of all the jobs piling up - a great stressless weekend after a difficult and stressful couple of weeks at work. Not looking forward to going back tomorrow still hoping it should be easier this week, plus an early finish on Friday which is nice.

    Hope you all had a good weekend too

    Hi Guys,

    Just popping in as I have not been online for a few days. Mr Budgie came back from Italy and I have been devoting some time to him ;) Good news is that he does seem so much better, fingers crossed. As you know he has never been very close to his brother, but whilst away he did get somethings off his chest. Eg he told his brother that he felt intimidated by him and also things that had been bothering for some years.

    I feel this is very good progress as by letting it all out, you can then move forward.

    His brother is such a snob and very materialistic, qualities that I and Mr Budgie do not find endearing. But hey ho it takes all sorts I suppose.

    Anyways enough of that, I wanted to update that I am now on 3 af days please Miss P, Big hugs to you and our very adorable piglet. (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    So welcome to any newbies and I am off to catch up.

    Special hugs to the special ones ;) (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Oh and btw Stoke on Trents famous son is on Itv soccer aid, I know some people do not like him. But I think he's bloody good :cool:

    Catch you all in a little while, oh and 115k hope you are ok hunny and getting the help you need? I have been thinking of you. Big hugs (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Take care everyone
    Budgie xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Evening all, hope your Sunday's are ok.

    I am AF today please Miss P (3 now).

    Had a very productive day despite the freezer needing an urgent defrost this morning - luckily the food was saved as I noticed in time. Then we've had a couple of hours of chaos with various family members and their children and friends turning up tea time. So hopefully a quiet couple of hours now in front of the box. :)
    This time I haven't smoked since 6th Jan 2014 and still going ok.
    Fingers crossed x
