Morning all
Happy Birthday, Jo, and welcome to Caroline. I've not got the time to do a detailed post this morning, so it will have to be hugs etc as appropriate. DH and DS2 are at MIL's for an hour, so I'm going to get washed and dressed and sort more laundry. Dull and overcast, but not cold here today.
My mouth is still not right after the extraction on Friday, but the painkillers have kicked in again, so I'll be off the sofa in a minute. When DS2 is back, we are going out to get a lighter duvet for our bedroom (£5 off at Matalan) and might venture to a garden centre near Wakefield - I need something to plant my herbs in.
Hope everyone has a good Sunday. x
I'm in, grateful, if a tad late.0 -

valli You sound really happy Im so pleased for you.
I am actually...thank you *mwah*
I was feeling like I didn't want to celebrate my birthday - too old LOL (and I only celebrated my 30th about two weeks ago, feels like) but I realised that I am lucky enough to be fit and healthy and it's definitely a good thing...we're only here once SO I am taking Jo-jo's siggy as my motto, feeling wery pleased that the worst case scenario (wheelchair by the time you're 40 delivered to a 22 year old girl in great pain) never happened and I am well again so it's celebrate time all round.
My friends suggested they club together for a gift for me - I would rather they join me on some of my exploits. The more the merrier!
Any chance I might have driven past said Garden Centre last weekend?Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016
