    One huge frog eaten, I'm very pleased to say....so I can now get on with the rest of my evening...yeahhhhh.

    Off to run hubby a bath as he's returning from his biking adventures, very wet and cold, glad I didn't go...:D

    I made a coffee chocolate cake and huge meatballs, been decluttering some of my many food shows from sky plus.

    Right best get on, may treat myself to a glass of red to celebrate my frog digesting.:rotfl::beer:

    Bored of checking to see if we have had a debit for olympic tickets - thinking the answer this late is probably no.

    I know exactly what you mean :(

    I will be breaking out some new candles tonight I think :wave:Natty my fellow yankee candle fan

    Good idea! I have just done the same (Partylite candles for me though :))

    Well I managed to clear out my freezer! :j Some of the stuff was so old :o It never needs defrosting, so i don't get to clear it out that often. By the end I had 2 spare drawers & 2 door compartments :) I then reorganised it so i could see what I have.

    I also went food shopping (after clothes shopping with DD), & cooked dinner.

    I need to check I have all paperwork in place for a visit by a prospective parent that is visiting tomorrow. Tomorrow morning i will take the dog out for a good walk, sweep & mop the kitchen floor and hoover downstairs before they due to arrive at 1pm.

    I will update listies in a mo (multi-tasking as I am playing Monopoly with DS & DH on the Wii)
