    Happy Birthday Pigpen! Hope you have a lovely day and that everyone at home allows you a day off.

    Triker I've just been googling your knives to find out what they were. We thought they may be those ceramic knives that are made in Japan, but now I know what they look like.

    Glad everyone who's posted so far had a nice day yesterday. I've had a nice lie-in this morning (stayed up late again last night trying to watch a film, but admitted defeat about 20 minutes into it), and I'm now sitting here with a cup of tea made by Moon, as he's been up for ages. He's downstairs putting the woodburner on, as it's really cold here this morning. Not sure if we're going to head to Southampton this morning or not. Moon doesn't seem too keen on getting flat-pack furniture (think he found it very frustrating making 2 different giant bird-feeders yesterday as both his Mum and my Mum had bought them, and one was faulty so it has to go back). We may go to somewhere more local to look at more expensive solid wood furniture.

    Well I suppose I'd better go and work out what I'm going to wear today (I only dress up on Christmas Day itself).

    Hugs and get well vibes to all who want or need them.

    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    Morning all, it's freezing here this morning.

    Kids all up and the house is covered in toys, so today will be spent finding new homes for them all. :D

    Kitchen and livingroom are the worst rooms so i'll make a start in them, wm needs to badly go on and a lot of recycling needs to go out.

    First things first need to light the fire.:rotfl:

    Happy Birthday pigpen, hope you have a lovely day.:bdaycake:
    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

    Happy Birthday Pigpen!

    Football is called off so we are going to go for a walk with the little ones.

    I'm struggling with my pain medication. It makes me dizzy and nauseous. I had to lie down for 2 hours then DH bundled me into the car to go down the road, I was still feeling dreadful but the side effects wore off before lunch.

    Family parcels were opened after lunch. Little ones were thrilled with ther parcels. Boys vanished to play COD. DD1 snapped loads of pictures with her new camera. I got an ipod speaker and DH bought me the book he wanted to read:cool:

    I walked home at 6. DH's sisters were their usual rude selves. Pain was making me very irratable and I remebered why I don't like them. Next year will be different.

    Enjoy yourselves today xxx

    Forgot to say that I got a really funny card from my sister - it had a picture of a mouse in a party hat on top of a tankard of beer, and it said Merry P*ssedmouse at the top! :rotfl:

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY PIGPEN !

    Its a pyjama day for me today. Im just going to do a tidy up in the kitchen and sitting room. Then its watching tv and maybe reading. Just hoping this snow goes soon. Nothing has been done here by the council but the better off town a few miles away is cleared.

    Happy Birthday Pigpen xx

    Had a lovely lie-in - DD came down to play on the computer and DS snuggled in with DH and me and we all had a lovely sleep ... til 10.00 :):). Freezing today but DH wants us to go to the arboretum for a walk. Doubtless we'll enjoy it when we get there but I'd rather sit in by the woodburner doing knitting! He is ex-Army and sometimes he thinks we're his soldiers I swear :eek:

    Have another lovely day today whatever you are doing.

    Most of the recycling out, bin is pretty full so i'm gonna go jump on it. :rotfl:

    I can now get into the utility room so wm on and will be for the rest of the day. Kids are suppose to be tiding their rooms and DD has managed to break a toy already. :mad:

    Fire been lit by hubby and i'll get him to move some of the rubbish bags out. Need to spend a good HHC in our bedroom at some point to. :D
