ISOM - be kind to yourself - soundslike you have been 'full-on' and maybe need to slow down a bit. Give your arm a wee rest.

Shaz - I hope today goes well with your assesment - and I am with the Chalky and Mioliere in saying that you need to look out for you just now - you need to be well and strong to look out for your boys - maybe things aren't that good just now - but who knows what next week will bring - so concentrate on getting yourself on a good footing so that you are ready for whatever life throws at you - and it could be all good - new flat etc - sending hugs for strength.

F1 dont be daft and put more pressure on yourself - we are all fool of 'I could do this.....' especially just now - there's only 5/6 weeks to go - you just dont need the added pressure honey.

MRS MP great news about the twins - how exciting - I bet you are beside yourself at times wanting to hold them!

pippa - get well wishes and strength to you both - take care of yourself and have some well needed time out. And lots of love for a very Happy Birthday- hope you have a lovely day :bdaycake:

Mioliere and lots of love to your DD too and hope she has a lovely day too :bdaycake:

love and positive vibes to all the rest of you struggling with whatever problem you are dealing with and we all have something!!!

Well you will be pleased to know that the scarf was finished on time on tuesday - just proves what i can do when i try!!!

Just as well as I am meant to be at a craft fair next weekend with scarves to sell for funds - and how many scarves do I have done???? yes you guessed it..................better get knitting!!!:rotfl:

had a day out at Ik*a yesterday and bought lots of bits - the carer that took me had not been before and kept saying 'its so big':rotfl: we had a great day but I am totally spent on the financial and energy fronts:eek: so maybe a quiet afternoon knitting would be a good idea:cool: and its not nice outside anyway!

catch up with you all later

Hello and love to all.
:bdaycake::bdaycake::bdaycake::bdaycake::bdaycake::bdaycake:
Happy Birthday Pippa -- Have a lovely day -- you so deserve it! Has a year flown by since you had the new car last year.
Talking of birthdays my great niece is 2 today and her Mum says she is being such a horror she will not get a birthday at all!!
My DD1 was a horror at 2 too!! The doctor said" ignore all the horrible bits and it will all right itself when she is 3! Wise words as she did totally.
Another good example of " this time too will pass"

Mrs M -- Those dear little souls will be 2 before their Mummy and Daddy know it-- What special children they will be xx

Toots -- How come you can walk into Ikea needing nothing but come out with a trolley full. We are all Ikea'd up now!!!!

Hope everyone is ready for a really good weekend xx

Doh has just made Chicken Liver Pate and I have just tried to copy and paste the recipe on her but pooter is not playinG!! It is so delicious and you cook it before you blend it so it does not look disgusting!!

:bdaycake::bdaycake:happy birthday pippa:bdaycake::bdaycake:

assessment at clinic was ok i guess, as expected they asked questions about what is the problem, i did the usual burst into tears before being anble to say anything
craft group this afternoon, trying to finish knitting the last scarf for xmas fayre tommorrow, looks like i'll be doing it most of the night, no longer a fast knitter since breaking wrist i have to keep stopping when i get twinges
dispite having so much wool already in boxes, i bought some more:o
a knitted cardigan on the wool stall caught my eye as it was an unusual design that i loved, so i plan on starting that as my xmas pressie to me, dont think it will be ready on time lol
crisis team here at 5pm, and i really should tidy up, maybe if i sit in the dark they wont notice the mess lol
toots its ages since i been to ikea, i love the place, so many useful things there breakfast is always nice too
hugs shaz xxx

Im laughing so much Ive had to play psso's link to the song - oh Im cheered up now - cant say its kicked me into action mind you and if psso is on the way to you know where Im not far behind:rotfl::rotfl:

Im trying to get an idea out of my head I dont know whether its a good idea or not ???? right im putting it on the table ..........

I cant decide what to buy my Mum for christmas and had an idea that I could buy one of the cheap baby kits and "reborn" her a dolly for christmas - Ive not quite finished mine off that painting was ok and I know where I went wrong now but Im struggling with the rooting of the hair so would paint the hair on my Mums one instead - am I trying a bit to hard with making things????

Then I had a second idea that I would decopatch some Initial letters for some of my family and friends - still involves buying the bits to do it though

There - there are my debates at the moment - what do you think - am I taking too much on considering my MOJO is completely gone off awol sounds like its with PSSO's

Answers on a postcode to ...........................

Hugs to all especially those that are struggling with health and other problems xxx

Just popped on to see how everyone was doing and I saw F1's post. You can do it a much cheaper way than buying deco patch. I use pretty paper napkins (loads in the supermarkets) and PVA glue! I did some for DGS and just pasted the letters (£1.99 from Hobbycraft) then layered on the napkins - seperated the layers out first - and painted over the top with more pva. I added some puffy stickers of animals from poundland and they looked fab. Cost me pennies to do after I had bought the letters.:)

Evening lovelies! Happy birthday Pippa; good to hear that OH is so thoughtful..Im sure recent events have meade you even closer tog?
Socky hang in there; I know that its hurtful that you are being rejected but please take all the support offered and hold on to the thought that often teenagers realise how much love means when they have done a bit of experementing with life
Went to docs who said its tendonitis so got some tabs and if its not cleared up in two weeks they can inject my elbow! Was happy to wait for that one!! Trying to rest up but with craft fayre a week today....
