    Morning lovelies! :wave:

    Lots of early birds this morning, piggers I'd be turfing him out of bed and jumping in myself, that's so not fair!

    CY I'd be panicking like heck by now hahaha hope he's ok and has turned up, they have no idea do they.

    I have some really good happy news:- I'm gonna be a Grandma again :D DS1 and his Fiance are expecting child no. 2 due in April/May ish :j:j:j:j

    Slept ok for the first time in almost 3 weeks last night, feel a heap better but my head feels like it's gonna explode everytime I cough, ouch!

    WM is on and 2 brews made, will do some light pottering today. Trying to avoid the Boots website and the NEXT website as both have their Christmas range in and I like to look at the catalogues first haha *twitches*

    Looked at finances again *rolls eyes* been putting it off but I'll have to go on the game now :rotfl:

    Fabulously sunny here today, but very nippy.

  • DS walked in at about 10am as cool as a cucumber - his phone had died....

    I figured if he was in A&E they would have phoned us - and if he was ith the boys in blue I didn't want to know.....

    I have chewed his ear off - but it won't make a difference...

    Kitchen worktopscleaned - cuppa break then it's the floor - and then hope that the delivery is 3pm and not 7pm...

    ...DD has just come in saying "had a poo, mummy" :rotfl:

    So I'm saying what a good girl she is, coming to tell me, get her fleecy onsie off, and she hasn't at all. So I said "you haven't" and she laughed and said "oh no where's it gone?".

    :rotfl::rotfl: she is so funny I laugh every time I think of this
    Me thinks I'm backing myself into a corner :eek:. The more I know I have to do the more I seem to rebel against myself :eek: why do I do it to myself. :o

    I think we might be twins :o

    No flying today - but this morning I have made 4 houses for Monday's course and want to make hedges to go round them this afternoon. We have the 8- and 11-y-o sons of some friends staying with us, so DH is crawling on his hands and knees with them, running the garden railway round the dining room! As long as the boys are happy... :)

    Congratulations embb on becoming a grandma again.

    Sorry to hear about your mouse, pigpen. Did the cat get it?

    Glad to know your DS is OK, cyclingyorkie - even if his ear is now somewhat chewed. I am so glad that I don't have teenagers to cope with in this day and age.
