    I have knit and woven with plastic. You will need some really big needles and it is great to do as it knits up quickly. :)

    Well that's work finished for 10 days and boy am I glad. The last week and a half has been pretty full on and my energy levels are still fairly low. Plan to have plenty of down time with OH as we haven't had much time for each other lately.

    yesterday was nsd #5 and today was ls

    won't be posting much over next week as taking a break from the pc too

    have a good week all

    Thanks Robin, we had a great time

    Hello Brizzle, sadly the break from that place ended today and tonight I'm suffering from rather a stressful first day back. I dreamt last night that we won the lottery but as I've stopped playing it, now it's gone up, that's not going to happen.

    I managed a total of 8 nsd, as OH paid for treats and 1 lsd, out of the 10 days.

    Halif^x dc dept have agreed to continue with reduced no interest payments for an unspecifed time.

    Cashback for OHs car insurance was paid out yesterday. As I did the leg work, got him a cheaper deal and cash backed it, I'm reaping the rewards.

    Granny day was delightful yesterday, although I didn't see DGD1 for long enough and rain kept DGD2 and I inside. We had an imaginary tea party with a stack of dolls instead.

    Anyway, off to bed now as incredibly tired, sleep well all

    Hello dear Brizzle

    I'm fine, just nothing of interest to bore anyone with on here. Posters have dropped so low, if it wasn't for the faithful few like you, I'd think I was chatting to myself

    This time last year DD was home for DSs wedding and I'm missing her a lot

    done most of my Christmas shopping but have increased debt slightly by doing so and have been pretty frugal whilst doing it. Not going to get anxious about it as really is only small amount

    DS and beautiful family have gone away for a couple of days, just spoke to DGD1 with DGD2 apparently smiling in the background

    OH is working, I've finished for the day, so enjoying the peace

    Speak soon
