    Good morning from chilly Lancashire x Muchly impressed with your organisational skills Miss Nora, can't wait to see your website...I have knitted my OH an epic bobble hat from wool which makes stripes by itself :) It's gorgeous but the ungrateful !!!!!! is refusing to wear it as he says it makes him look like a hobo :( Four whole hours it took me to make that, put love in it and everything, am going to have a proper sulk this morning, grrrrr
    :cool:

    Tell him he either wears it, or you'll get him one of these.

    darn right you should have a proper sulk Lassy, that's completely out of order, it would never be your hat that makes him look like a hobo, if he didn't have that tendancy anyway it would never happen lol

    Nora still in holding pattern for moving so drowning in boxes which will grow again over this weekend coming, i'm hoping i can have the rest of the place sorted except for the kitchen but that may just be beyond me this weekend.

    Ooo, keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you - I know it's not fun or easy to live amongst the boxes (oooo, send NL's OH a picture of a big box...his hobo home, unless he wears the hat!!), but it sounds like you're doing wonderfully and being super organised.

    NSD #5 declared today!

    *Ahhhhhhh-aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh* (it's cherubs singing - stick with me here).

    I'm ignoring Freeby's huge achievement to date (though she's had an awful day, so sparing her a thought...), and keeping my head down...I shall achieve my 15 day target!!!

    Tomorrow, NSD 6 shall be mine....it shall be my pressssscccccciiiiooouuusssss. *rubs hands with evil glee*

    *slinks in*

    Spendy day yesterday...and wasn't overly organised, so will be a spendy day today too (liquid gold...plus I've run out of chocolate).

    But tomorrow...tomorrow shall be my day...it shall be the 6th day of non-spending, if I have to hand my purse to my mother in order to manage it!! :eek:

    *strides out...trips over random shoe...exits speedily towards the stairs*

    Just popped in to catch up on my subscribed threads, namely you and Hypno and some challenges.

    It cheers me up no end when I see the chatter going on here and to see how far you have all come.:T

    I really hope one day that will be me, although mine will only happen once EXOH and I really do have a parting of the ways (and property).

    Right today is the day I have promised to have a massive clear up so best move my butt or will end up one MSE for too long.:eek:


    Have a great weekend one and all

    Hehe, he'd look cracking in that, he would have to grow a big tache to complete the look tho!:eek:
    I am quite tempted by the superglue idea too, better not mention it to my teenage daughter or she will definitely do it to him! I'd love to see the reaction of his burly shop-floor workmates if he rocked up in either of these at work on Monday morning :D
