    Managed all of my chores fine in DHs car. Getting quite good at a manual again now.

    Just the shopping to put away before my friend arrives.

    gosh it's quiet. Been round to neighbours with some lovely chunks of wood for the chimnea (Mr. Neighbour was the one kind enough to fit my spare wheel monday) which I scrounged while I was busy this morning. Mate thrilled with idea of getting a job she hates done - now what I should do, I suppose, is pay the money I would have spent into my savings account. Beds stripped and airing. Posted a sale and wouldn't you know it the other one got paid while I was out...

    Thanks Lamewolf. DD is home and fine. Water of a ducks back in the end. Though I'm mindful that they probably will start to ache.

    Lots of S/S and list finished. Is it bedtime yet? xx

    It is very quiet. I'm finishing wrapping my first baby boy's birthday presents (he is 15 on Monday). He isn't having much as he is going to USA skiing early in 2013 with school and it is very expensive. Next Christmas he will be having ski clothes etc.

    Going to tackle bedside hotspot next xx

    Got a missive from the Rheumy - well, actually, it was my own letter back, with a scrawled note in manuscript from her at the bottom.... but it says "Please return to taking hydroxycholoquine" and then her signature.:T:T:T:j:j:j:beer::beer::beer:
    Never thought I'd be happy to be taking another tablet, but there you go!:D:D:D:D:D

    I have to get the stuff built back up in my system, so relief won't be immediate, but hey, I can live with that just to know relief will happen.:j:jWOOT! WOOT!:T:T
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    Evening

    Wreath laid on my mother's grave for her birthday and Christmas, still no head stone grrrrrrrrrrr, ground elder is growing like mad, so come the spring, I am digging in the Church yard to get rid of it, (I hope I am allowed to) but it is starting to over run the grave.

    Had lunch with my father who was unimpressed with the size of his portion in the pub of fish and chips, so promptly went home and had cheese & biscuits!!

    Very little daily stuff done, as driven about 300 miles today, so chilling tonight.

    Hope all those missing are ok...
