    Hi :j
    I'm in too this week please. Thanks to Pigpen, Toots, Soappie and Toots III for keeping the thread going. Welcome to all newbies and returners (diva - hope you keep well).

    Was away last week - wedding, daughter's 30th (:eek:), election duties, etc., so glad to come back home for a rest! Daughter wanted a Goofy cake made (greenbee, I needed you - no access to internet for the week so couldn't get your advice) but the sugarpaste Goofy stayed together for the candle blowing thank goodness (1,000 cocktail sticks used).

    Hugs to those feeling poorly or feeling down. Off to unpack and get started - WM already on.

    Need to catch up with last week's thread...
    I could give up chocolate, but I'm no quitter!

    Morning All

    Well I'm still feeling lousy so I'm off work as you might have gathered. Don't expect me to join in any HHCs though as movement is not good. Good job I've now got this laptop though as there's no way I'd have been able to use my desktop.

    Diva - good to see you back - hope you'll be fully recovered soon.

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    I'm in, thanks ladies.

    Going to tackle the kitchen, bathroom and table today. We did a kitchen clean yesterday but I'm sure I can still find things to do out there! I managed to trick DH into helping me clean the kitchen, he was a bit stumped! It was quite fun doing it together

    Does anyone have any better ideas what to do with really good quality craft/art books other than ebay?

    Amazon's used listings?? Main disadvantage may be postage if they're the really hefty books... There is an MSE forum thread on both Amazon and ebay, so you'll find a lot more info there.
