    had a lovely lie in...continued to try and add a spur to existing electrics in the kitchen (oh the stress!!!), cooked a roast, visited my sister and nephews, lazed around for a bit then came to work...still at work. At least it won't be total darkness when I travel home in about four hours time.
    have a good week everyone :D

    We must have missed out on all that good weather in Dorset, decidedly grey and chilly here. Kids were happy enough playing out with friends though. Today looking better.

    I cooked a roast invited my Mum round and and good family afternoon was had by all.
    However I did smoke my last cigarette - ever - and went to sleep in a positive frame of MSE mind.

    Worked on my essays for half a day, and then had some time off to spend with OH and watch telly. So depressing. I haven't been out of the house since Thursday - getting cabin fever like crazy, but the essay is so difficult :(

    Set our heating/water on timer (really impressed with this been on constant since Oct/Nov and me and OH didnt know how to set timer, didnt realise it told us inside, only lived at the house 1.5 yrs)
