    Just popped by to send ((HUGS)) to Bramble. I lost my grandad exactly 43 years ago, so I know just how it feels when everyone is geared up to New Year celebrations and your family has been hit by loss.
    DS stayed in bed until supper time...and has now gone out to meet a friend at the pub.
    Resolution:
    Think twice before spending anything!

    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

    Pup is no longer allowed Chinese leftovers! He will be floating around the ceiling soon considering the amount of air coming out his bum right now!!

    Went to post this morning and guests dropped in for a couple of hours, and they're still here, lol

    But today was a good day - I got a diary to help me stay organised in 2012, and have finally found the bottom of my laundry basket (yaaay). Problem is I now need to put it all away, lol

    Oh and I got most of the Christmas deccies packed away and into the loft...

    Tomorrow we have the Christmas panto (was booked originally for Christmas Eve but DS1 and I had a tummy bug so they kindly changed the date for us to New Years Eve :) ) REALLY looking forward to going (ooohhh yes I am!)

  • Evening everyone

    Feeling much better today, although my dm and dh have both got it.

    Not much os today apart from making risotto for dinner. Walked dog for over an hour met a lady with 6 labradors and ended up walking and chatting. She breeds them and is interested in my doggie as a dad so to speak. So we exchanged numbers I have met her a few times whilst out walking.

    Went to see the snowman tonight, I loved it. We got tickets for £10 each plus booking fee.

    Bramble sorry to hear of the loss of your grandad ((hugs))
    Lou ((hugs)) we are all here for you.
    Adelight - whereabouts in london are you, I too moved away from home and I'm like a bear with a sore head when I come back to essex. We are only 10 miles out of london. I joined a craft group, fancy doing basket weaving course one day.

    Hugs to anyone that needs/wants one. Take care.
