    Picking up on a theme:
    5 things I am grateful for today:
    • It's only a cold messy-sneeze.gif, not pneumonia
    • Meeting went well
    • Drive home from meeting took the 2 hours it should take rather than the 4 hours it can take
    • I have my PJ's on :D
    • My homemade soup is lovely perfecto.gif
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
    :) Mortgage Balance = £0 :)

    • Look like Rudolph
    • Toaster just blew up
    • Mega money spent on soft tissues and drugs
    • Rent overdue

    Feeling v guilty at inspiring everyone to go walking when I have no intentions of getting off my butt while it's cold :rotfl:


    GG :).

    To alleviate your guilt, I have to say it made me just want to snuggle up in front of fire which I shall be doing shortly, so no guilt needed there.
    Hope the cold goes soon, Costco are cheap for Kleenex balsam-fancy-balm tissues if you can get to one,or better still can send someone to one for you like I do, cheers again little sister.

    Just hurt my neck sneezing :rotfl:.

    Crikey. Seems I'm the only person in the country who hasn't been abused by someone famous or had 'inappropriate advances' made towards them by a politician or clergyman. What on earth is going on shrug.gif.
