In bed so declaring 3 AF days here Pen. I now officially have flu - so I have to stay in for the next two or three days until I don't have fever. Have some strong anti-inflammatories to take and stuff to un bung my head.
Absolutely no desire to drink whatso everTrying to keep in budget.

Jo hunny biggest hugs and lots of love, I hope all is ok? (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Had Grandma's funeral and send off which went ok really, it was strange being in her house and she wasn't there..............She had lived there for 65 years, such a long, long time............................Only downside was I met her cousin for the first time, quite a forthright lady who has never had children................
Her opening line to me was: "Well your not as good looking as your mother" :eek:
Now I was on my best behaviour, but I was so tempted to say: "Have you tried looking in the mirror love"but I of course only thought this, so tempted though
Still I am pleased to be on 14 days and especially as I am target free.
So away this weekend with the Aged P's in Blackpool, (please don't laugh). But I am looking forward to it to be honest.
Is that how boring my life has become :eek:
Been meaning to say I hope our lovely Pippi is ok?
Special hugs to the Special ones, oh and this other thread the giving up/cutting down coke and caffiene challenge, I keep ending up on there :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
Perhaps I am ready for another eye test ...................
Oh and DaisyChain, really big hugs sweetheart, you are having a nightmare. ((())) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Gien so sorry you are not well. (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Stay lucky
Budgie xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxCherish the ones you love and travel back on the road that brings you home

Mr L had a pre-dinner G&T, I had my elderflower cordial with fizzy water, ice and lime! Looked pretty similar, tasted yummy, but none of that pesky A stuff...“Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goals.”

Hi Budgie, enjoy Blackpool. I must be sad too but OH has been going on about it being worth seeing and I'm kind of hoping to go. Hope you have a great time.
Daisy, so sorry to hear about the car, what a bad run of luck. Hope you're doing ok after it, that must have been a huge shock.
Another AFD for me so that's 8/16 please Shaggy and another one for the challenge. I wasn't tempted until half an hour ago tonight, was told some emotional news and was feeling like the solution was a bottle but shook it out of my head and now I'm feeling strong again half an hour later.
Sleep well everyone.0 -

5 on Sunday, 6 today. Feeling somewhat appalled at the amount I put away over the weekend (Fri/Sat) so trying to redress the balance this week. Off to make myself a hot choc and look for biscuits.0

Evening all!
Hope everyone's had a good day. Sorry about the car Daisy, as long as you're not hurt that's the main thing. Gien, nightmare about having the flu but take care & get well soon.
7 for me now please Shaggy & 2 out of Mon-Thurs challenge please Pen
Off to bed soon to catch up on some Zzzzs with my lemon & ginger tea, it's a godsend!! So far v. pleased that I've not been tempted to go out and buy any wine, even though work's been stressful. It's a different story if I've got the damn stuff in though....
At least refusing to buy any is helping on my Money-saving ways for 2011!
Night all x0 -
