    Well, today is a very sad day and I'm afraid my debt free wanna be has gone out of the window. Today I lost my ever faithful, truly loyal dog; Bumper'. She was a very special dog and will be sadly missed. x

    Oh SRM, MEN! honestly - they do live on another planet! Hopefully when you have calmed down you will be able to laugh and tell him that if you had worn a garter, it would be slightly more exotic than a hair scrunchie!

    I haven't done anything yet today. I didn't really yesterday either, apart from some tidying and some washing. Really must iron today and do a bit of drawer tidying, but somehow sitting on the sofa seems so much better. Don't want to watse my week off though - I had all these thoughts of things to do so should do some of them I suppose.

    Oh Inamin, I am so sorry to hear that. Big hugs for you x

    Also, on the plus side SRM, you must be very skinny if you can get into a 'garter' that was actually a hair scrunchie. :D

    **passes SRM the shovel**

    How on earth are you meant to fit your leg through a hair scrunchy? Big hugs, having to deal with the GEM.

    beanie, glad your head is ok and you've got some supplies.
