    No , we have moved from watching tv in bed to watching tv on the sofa, I have no intention of changing out of my pyjamas any time soon.

    She's off line. Not sure if that's a good sign or a bad sign. Maybe she 'made a puddle' and electrocuted herself :eek:.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    I'm sorry I've not been around, and even sorrier that I've not been keeping up with anyone's diaries.

    Those who know me, may recall that I am a great believer in the law of attraction - well, unfortunately it appears that my universe magnet is currently full on negative, and I am a giant walking turd attracting even bigger turds * don't come too close folks *

    Firstly money. Blaaarrrgghhhh.

    Secondly work. Blaaaarrrrggghhhh.

    So to recap, money is blaaaarrrgghhhh and work is blaaaarrrrghhhh.

    Hope everyone else is dandy though :D

    Me again. I think I should do a wee gratitude entry a la Alchemilla /LoisE

    # LLL and Sarah Beeney programmes on catch-up

    # I still love my job

    # My children are lovely

    # My dog is lovely

    # My HWB is lovely

    # I have a roof over my head (along with choked guttering:cool:)

    # My turd attracting abilities are reaching tipping point

    ETA : I am also grateful for TGBBO :-)
