Bitsy lovely to read about DS. Made me cry when I read it...well done to him. Noah was in his yesterday but refused to come out as the white rabbit so his understudy did it:o
Awww bless you've made me feel all choked upNever mind about Noah, least they are prepared to give him a try. At the end of the day not everyone likes being on stage
I wish you and your OH all the best on your very special day together. You both deserve every happiness and I really hope Noah enjoys himself too.

Sorry I missed the hen do, ended up being busy and then had to dash off to tap. Hope no one is hungover today
Plans for today, make a cake for school tomorrow. Finish off the bailey's fudge (need to drizzle choc over it) and try and fit in some housework.
Heating hasn't gone off yet, didn't think it was still THAT cold, although we did have a nice little snow shower on the school run.
Tea tonight will be something with chorizo, probably chicken as I have a large one cooking ATM.7

Good Morning everyone from a sunny but very chilly north Kent,
NPM have a lovely day dear and lots of long and happy years to come
pollys hope all goes well with your dads op
and to everyone else who is feeling cold and a bit fed up with the weather cheer up its almost Christmas.
I do hope the white stuff doesn't come back ,its better on Christmas cards than in reality.I saw a lady with Croc boots on yesterday and stopped and asked her where she bought them .She said she bought them in wales and they were fantastic for walking in the snow,warmer than wellies and very stable so I may have a look online to see if I can get some .They were bright red and looked really comfy.she said they were the best she had ever had for getting around in.
just doen the school run and will soon be popping across the road to the Drs to pick up my prescription for meds.Then home to do the last of the Christmas cards.
Hope everyone has a good day and keeps wrapped up warm
Cheers JackieO xx0 -

good wishes for your joyous day NPM and a happy fruitful life together.
Been quite quiet here recently, just working and keeping out of any chilly breezes! it has been up in the 20s but a big drop is forcast tomorrow to 9 degrees which is the problem with this climate and causes all the coughs and colds.
i have finally been able to sort out my outgoings with Mrs De and help from the SOA program on here--it has answered lots of the queries i have had for ages and we seem to be in positive territory all round.Just have to clear my credit card and interest free debt over the next 7 months-its tight but after that we will be in a good position--does anyone seem to be continually chasing the debt free day??!!--in the back of my mind i feel at 47 i should be less fretful about finances and free to indulge.-i have plenty of equity but that doesnt equate to peace of mind with me!!
İ am off to the gym today for a long work out-i feel more muscular after my 2 weeks of heavy free weights so psychologically i feel better about my shape--whether its real will only be revealed by the gym's dietician's scanner--i am giving myself a birthday present by endulging with a consultation in January--my 48th birthday!mfw'11 No68- 55k mortgage İO--little to nothing saved! i must do better.0 -

NPM- wedding day here at last,after all the planning.Hope you all have a really wonderful,special day.Shame about the bruises though.Glad Noah enjoyed the traffic lights :T
I'm off to do some more shopping in a little while,I'm getting a bit more organised now.I've just had a delivery of dried dogfood so he's stocked up for a month.Its a local firm who deliver free,and its like the premium anti allergy foods,but cheaperA really lovely young man brought it-he set the company up because he had a mastiff with severe skin probs ,so he loved my boy and we had a really nice doggy chat.Will use them again if he gets on well with it,as I only ordered it late yesterday afternoon,and he was here just after ten.
Right,better get on.Not sure whats for tea-the menfolk have been loving the hearty filling meals coming in from the freezing cold,so maybe shepherds pie today.

Anniestar sends her best wishes and love to you both today.She's poorly today and has no internet so I'm passing it on for her.
Do what you love :happyhear0 -
Morning All.
Freezing out there today, and a heavy frost on the cars this morning, I'm working with a little fan heater right next to my desk it's so cold!:eek:
OH didn't get home until after 8:30 last night so we ended up having beans on toast for tea. We'll have mince and potatoes tonight instead.
I've got to buy some Christmas wrapping paper and some Christmas cards to send to my Grandad who lives in Spain. Need to get all my cards written out tonight, I've been putting it off for too long! :DWill make a start on wrapping pressies too so that I can get into my wardrobe properly. So that'll be my whole evening taken up.
NPM - Have a wonderful day today! :beer:
Have a great day everyone!0 -

NPM - Hope you have a wonderful day
I am slightly hungover....i got to leave work early, and somehow, i don't know how it happenedfound myself in my local, it was my friends birthday too. so we all had a drink and came back to mine for malibu (we had no mixer though!) I woke up at midday! Poor OH had to go to work, he called me earlier to inform me he was dying and probably won't make it through the day!! I reminded him last night he had to be up early!
Flutterbye thanks for the tip about the filofax stuff!!
So my friend is coming round today, I had planned to make us a cake to enjoy with our tea but i don't have it in me today, i got a lovely box of chocolates yesterday from OH's parents (they signed the card mum and dad) so they will do instead of the cake.
I need to eat some food before i got to work later (and also maybe sober up a bit more!! ) thinking cheese on toast. But might end up going into town early and stopping for some fast food!
Also. You know you get takeaway pizza too often when they send you a birthday voucher! hehe will use that on sunday as we are going to my dad's over night and won't want to cook anything when we get back.
Have a lovely day all (i'm annoyed i've missed half of it!)Annual Grocery Budget £364.00/£1500
