Good morning all

A day off work for me and I'm meeting a friend later for some lovely girlie shop and chat. So got up really early and made soup and a pasta bake. Got washing and ironing done and in a bit off to do recycling, walk dog and fill up the car.

Later today when I get back in Our Sid will ask me in an indulgent voice if I enjoyed my day off as if he arranged it as a special treat for me. Men!

Thank you for your lovely mail Jackie o---i hope my wife and i can keep the romance going forever.--neither of us as romantic but the love and comfort is there!

İ am suited n booted and ready for work--the last 2 weeks have been my last free time til june --its 7 days a week now until the end of June so there will be no time to wollow!
DH actually encourages me to be lazy about the house and keep my pjs on because she knows how hard i work during the term and she wants me to be completely rested--if i was in the uk i would probably be signed off putting my feet up because of my illness but i am not like that and i want to work for my family and a great future.---i love my wife because she understands and knows what is good for me.

Morning all, I havent been here for a while life just got a bit on top. Jackie your story is very romantic.
We just do cards we've been together 12 years this year one day he might make an honest women of me but 2 kids a house and a dog show the commitment. I am putting the kids to bed early tonight and I will cook something nice and open a bottle of wine.
I got a job on Friday, I am now a dinner lady at the kids school, it fits in perfectly with the kids and studying only an hour a day and its only 10minutes down the road, every little extra helps too.
Have a good day every one. xxx

Morning All,

Happy Valentine Day , especially to Halight you old smoothy;)

I agree. We don't really do the card or pressie thing today but he tells me he loves me every day, we always hold hands and 28 yrs on he still makes my tummy turn over:p

Just a quickie this morning off to see my daughter and a trip round the charity shops and a nice lunch. The sun is shining, the house is clean and tea is a quick curry from yesterdays leftover roast lamb.

JulieGeorgiana, do you have a list of the foods your eating, sounds great and healthwise I really need to change my diet but don't know were to start. Any info would be great:)

Have a lovely day x

Happy V-day all, I am loving halight's crazy post
Am up late and feeling a little crazy, just popping in to centre my shakras (or whatever, chill my beans!!) before uni. Fly lady stuff to do when I get back, then catch up on the daily thread before I tuck into the humongous pile of assignments I'll have by the end of the day!
I got red wine on my beige carpet last night, mostly got the stain up last night but left it covered with bicarb and have decided carpet cleaning will have to be done at some point BOOO!!!!

Right, hugs to all and hope you have good days!!
