    • Place GIANT generics order to get us through Christmas (workie one, but I need all the reminders I can get!)
    • Wash DH long sleeve shirts

    Living room is lookin a bit lop-sided at the moment, I've started the Christmas decorating, but I've still got some balloons up from celebrating a birthday at the weekend....tis mums birthday tomorrow so thought I'd leave them up coz she might be visiting this afternoon. Cat hates them though, that very funny!

    Right time to get ready for work. Will sort that lot out when I get home around lunch-time!

    I'm in - looks like another day off work, but it is the last week of term, so I wasn't expecting much supply work - suppose I may still get a call for this avo though if anyone is poorly.

    So far this morning, I've eaten breakfast, made my packed lunch, and had cuddles with Little Black Furry (cat), whose purr switch seems to be working again. :)

    Today's plan is to try and wrap all of the presents that I've bought already, go out and buy Moon's £5 of presents and wrap them, and do more of Mount Washmore. Oh, and do some of today's list. ;)

    Just got a call for work this morning, better be off ..........
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    Morning all, :D
    DD had a fantastic time at the party yesterday, Rhys was up wiggling his bum and was over with ones his own age and talking to everyone in his wee way. He's normally very shy and would cry.

    Hubby has appointment this morning if i can get him out of bed.

    Thanks for the lists and i've promised myself the hall will be done this week, ceiling is to be done today.

    Hugs, spoons, sticks to all who need them.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
    :j :j
