    TM I know what you mean now, tomorrow was all planned, shopping for groceries and a nice lunch out for me and DP as we don't get an evening out over Christmas with him being a taxi driver and us having the boys and no babysitter but looks like that plan might need to change. Currently looking around to see if anywhere had any nice hampers in but seems they have removed them all from the online shops.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    dont be shy PP lets see the thermals!:D ;)

    Nahhhhhhh:o ....they look awful. Especially with my chicken legs:eek: :eek: :eek: ...washed them today as they had that new plastic smell to them, but they fit great and hopefully will work well.

    Anyway, today has been quite boring. Hospital went OK and they have adjusted my Warfarin amounts to make up for my mistake the other day:rolleyes: and have to go back next week to make sure they are ok.

    Washload done and dried on the airer. DW will go on again soon and dinner was delish. I luvvvvv gammon, mash and cabbage:D

    Cut out a few recent pics of DD & I and OH & I today and put them in some new frames we got from the 99p store and they look great. OH's mate had a problem with his computer so lost OH for about 3hrs this afternoon. DD & I had a chat and watched some animal planet together.

    Delivery still hasnt turned up, so will call again in a minute but not sure what time they are delivering too, but the office shuts at 6.30pm.

    Better go as DD is serving up icer-cream and toffee sauce:p

    MATH-Where have you gone? Do we send out a search party to look under the empty wrappers of the dozen Quality Street tins you have consumed:confused::D;):p :eek: :eek: :eek:

    Hugs y'all

    Pooky - glad to hear about the door.:T

    Pen-Pin - c'mon let's see em girl:rotfl:

    Just nipped on for a sec to catch up with everyone.

    Love the idea of a chocolate couch Nels - but it'd probably only last me a couple of days and I'd need a new one. mmmmm chocolate.

    Catznine - cheers to your mum.

    can't remember details of everything else - but glad bunny is still here.

    GrannyBroon - any relation to granpa, paw, maw, horace, hen, joe, the twins, daphne etc etc?

    Been at work today. fun?

    hoovered stairs and woodwork (easier than dusting it) need to wash it down tomorrow afternoon and that'll my my start on the New Year blitz.

    Hopefully we'll get a half day tomorrow (they never say until the absolute last minute.)

    Ironing tonight and hopefully I can pack suitcases for this weekend at the same time - I've been wandering round policing everyone's clothes all week and working out when I can do a light load, dark load etc and get them dry in time for going away. I'm sat in my jammies already so my stuff is washing as we speak (dark load then when that comes out an inbetween load)

    Good grief, my life gets more and more exciting.

    roll on christmas. Really trying to stick to the diet but wine is calling me tonight - I feel like it's the holidays and so I should be indulging myself.

    take care all - sorry for the waffling ramble (or is that rambling waffle?)

    peem Thanks ref bunny, he not fully supporting his own body yet, but he's still alive.
    pooky glad your cooker door arrived.

    Just nipped to tesco (ran out of cat litter) OMG - I couldn't get a parking space, had to drive round the car park twice, and in the end had to park near the exit. It was total chaos, talk about nightmare before Xmas, I also wanted a nice box of biscuits for the office, there was 4 left on the shelf. Not exactly what I wanted, but its better than nothing.

    OH been suffering with toothache last couple of days. At least its quiet in the house - lol.

    Off to run the bath now, Have a great evening all
    Take care & love as usual

    Sounds as a few are frantic. Chill. Just about to open Somerfield wine. I just love this forum. You are my friends. Best friend in down south so loved up haven't heard from her since I was down in the summer! Been friends since we were 11. Missing her. Her daughter married in early Sept, helped choose wedding dress, gAve huge advice, sent cheque for £100 as couldn't be there. No Xmas card, no thank you for wedding gift. She used to send me e-mail prior to wedding constantly as we did daughter's wedding 2+ years ago. Heard nothing since! My DS and DD always make a point of phoning if gift received if haven't managed card. sORRY IF i AM WINGING.

  • GB you sound as drunk as I am - made the mistake of opening the bottle before dinner. Because it's so cold refrigeration not needed - not always a good thing!!!!

    PS - whinging always welcome here!
