    Off here. Weather hasn't been bad here the last couple of days 14 ouside 18 inside. Went shopping yesterday and what a heat, they must have their heating going full blast it was so uncomfortable I left. Loads of washing done :) and ironing done today need to get hubby back onto this task it's the only household chore I hate doing. Taking furry hot water bottle to bed purchased from Boots sale beginning of year was around £12 for £3 odd what a bargain, it's still tepid warm when I empty it in morning.
    I love this place :j:T:j

    Mines off but I have the stove lit in the front room- however its lit all the time at the mo as its brand new and I LOVE it - so cosy! I am also about to put on my PJ's - Me and hubby are deffo pj's/trackies from about 6pm onwards- and I fall asleep on the sofa most nights- I keep ending up with 15 minute's of ends to programmes to watch as I always fall asleep! Im 35 btw but I blame my 4 kids LOL
