Mothership it sounds like you are better off not worrying about her. Focus on building relationships with the living. Num Num on the fish and chips.
My thoughts EXACTLY, I gave up worrying about her LONG ago. Trying to do some damage limitation on the poor wee souls that came off worse than me , (they were brought up with her).
Anyway I have a plan, and its a good un! Every time I speak to them I will tell them how much I love them, every time I see them I will hug them till their eyes pop. I will be their mum and nan
Took some cooked Lamb out of the freezer, going to make a quick curry, boiled rice , nan bread , salad , banana & pineapple. I roared with laughter when I saw the freezer label 'Fraggle Lamb', I did it in the slow cooker and it was just a tad overcooked, I asked my daughter to write 'fragile lamb' so I would remember what batch it came from and heat it gently when it defrosts LOL.
I was out in the garden/greenhouse from 6.30 am, had a wonderful morning, just waiting for my darling GD to come from nursery. Was counting my blessings all morning I have SOOOOO much to be thankful for1st Purse £114.19 Monthly GB:rotfl::j:wave::j:rotfl:

Darn it, just went out to get fresh fruit and veg for the week and ended up spending £6.13 (really £15.13 but £9 of that was covered by taking back some ill-fitting shoes and getting a refund.....). I've realised I'm already just over half my budget, having spent £52.56, but I guess I could take out the £11.20 night out earlier in the month as it could be classed as "entertaining" rather than "food".....
Yup, I'm going to probably get very creative towards the end of the month!!0 -
Weekly shop at Mr M. Menu plan and any order is out of the window as have had a carp week. HM pizza for tea - comfort food. GC still looks okay though.0

spent another £65.96 today between tes*o and @ldi. I thought I would do really well as I had done a 5 week menu plan but the weather changed and is so hot everyone wants salads, fruit and ice cream so spending is running away with me.! Oh well I guess that the meals I had planned for (and had bought for) will do next month and hopefully will bring May budget down.Sealed Pot Challenge 2011 / no. 1205 £110 made]Sealed Pot Challenge 2012/no 1205 target £300Jan g/c 355.83/£450
