    Hi Guys!

    Hope you're all well.

    Haven't been downstairs today as joints too painful. OH has been working since 5 and finished about 3. House clean and tidy though. DD at BF's this weekend, so nice and quiet here for a couple of days:D

    Have Shepherds Pie for dinner which I'm looking forward too.

    Afternoon all
    Gongratulations JG, welcome to Eliza.
    Hugs Miffy
    LW, the people who are selfish are those who have kids that they don't want, well done you for knowing what you didn't want.
    My poorly puter is going to the menders tomorrow for a few days so I will be MIA after about 10ish tomorrow.
    Bramble I shall be mostly in tomorrow, just ring me when you want to come over.
    Hugs Hester

    Never let success go to your head, never let failure go to your heart.

    Hi Pen-Pin :wave: good to "see" you, but sorry to hear you're stuck upstairs today.

    We've got Shepherd Spy on the meal plan for next Monday - Mr LW's working late Tuesday, so I'll make enough for two days (ie nuke'n'eat on Tues);) It'll be made with veggie mince, though.:o
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    Congrats JulieG! Wonderful name and a good weight too. Enjoy the new addition to your family.

    LW I don't think it's selfish at all, glad you could make the decision not to have children rather than to have them and not know why.

    Monnogran you are a special person. My brother and I were adopted and it has always made us feel special to know that we were so wanted.

    Busy day here again, work is manic - the children have gone from being on a high at the beginning of the week telling us what they got for christmas to being too tired to do anything! Still, the weather has been fab today, cold and crisp with loads of sunshine so everyone has been smiling.

    Still eating out of the freezer, just veg to buy this week again so doing well so far. Take care. XX

    ETA Miffy, hugs to you. Such a horrid time.
