Morning all! What lovely news, congratulations to Michelle and her family, hope everything went smoothly.
Happy Birthday Ivyleaf!:bdaycake:
It's lovely and sunny here NOW, was raining and horrible when I got up and put the WM on and the wet washing into the TD :mad: . I've had a busy morning though, made up a HUGE bowl of Delia's mincemeat, smells absolutely gorgeous, and it's steeping now, will cook it gently as per her recipe tomorrow and pot it up. Had to dash into town to get some waxed circles and pot covers though since I couldn't find any yesterday. Have an autumn fruit compote simmering on the hob now, the house smells fantastic and Christmassy!
Breakfast: Grilled mushrooms and tomatoes on toast
Lunch: HM veg soup with HM roll
Dinner: Chilli with rice
Have a great day everyone!

Hello everybody,
Finally got on. I've been watching Jamie Oliver. I'm so tired tonight. Last night not too sure what time it was but was woken up by XDIL running up and down the hallway shouting OMG & then she ran into the loo and than ran up and down the hallway again muttering sh$t & OMG. I thought she must have wet the couch or something.Then all was quiet.
Of course I was wide awake and still awake a few hours later. :mad: I asked her this morning about it and she said she had a bad dream and was disorientated. :rolleyes: Sounds weird to me. Although I find her weird normally anyway.
I got DGS a little haircut today. I have packed his bag for Daycare tomorrow. :j Granny is earmarking the morning for *me time*.I feel a bit guilty tonight. I gave him a smack this arv.
He has started squealing when he doesn't get his own way or just because he wants to & he was intentionally running over the dog's tails on his superman trike. :eek:
Granny's patience wore thin :rolleyes: and then felt sooooooo bad afterwards.
Ivyleaf Have a lovely birthday and it won't be long before your'e a granny again.
Michelle Congratulations on the birth of your son.

Hi all
Well we got back from holiday last week and to be honest I have only just escaped from under the washing and ironing pile :eek: :eek: :eek:
Had a fab time and it was lovely not to worry about anything for a couple of weeks, ah well back to reality now!
House is like a pigsty and needs a good clean through but to be honest things haven’t stopped since we got back so that’s on the list for the weekend.
Not really had a chance to catch up with what everyone’s been doing but I hope everyone is OK.
As always take or leave the :grouphug: as neededYou laugh because I'm different - I laugh because you're all the same0 -
:bdaycake: Belated Happy Birthday wishes Dorry!Our days are happier when we give people a bit of our heart rather than a piece of our mind.

Lunch was pitta bread pizzas and dinner tonight - tuna bake. Oh well - best crack on with the room or DS will be sleeping on the floor tonight! Hopefully see you all later!0

Hi everyone,
Happy birthday Ivyleaf (and belated ones to Dorry) and congratulations to the Michelles.:j
Was a bit late for work this morning as DD rang in tears (she dreamt that she had cancer last night and then had a row with BF this morning). Some of you will know she's waiting for biopsy results (although it's probably treatable pre-cancerous changes if anything rather than the real thing) and she was also thinking of her uncle who died two weeks ago. Had to take the time to calm her down and cheer her up - I told her to buy a hot chocolate and by the time i'd finished she was much more herself. It's horrid though when you want to hug them and can't.
Started with the big bedroom clear out last night but I think it's going to be flylady baby steps so it will take some time.:o RZL we also had a very nice fish pie from the weightwatchers recipe book with buternut squash mash, DH loved it.:T
Bought far too much from a suggestion on the grabbit board (new pans and a tefal steam generator iron) yesterday and my new ironing board cover arrived so for a while I think I'll enjoy ironing and DH loves a new gadget so maybe he'll fight me for it.:rotfl:0 -
Congratulations
Michelle. Just caught up with the brilliant news!!
Hugs to everyone. No time to post here today as due back at work now!!
