    Yay for the job! That's great news :)

    Sugar snap peas are rather tasty actually! ;) I figure I'll be tucking into lunch early. Think this cold weather is making me hungrier than usual :p

    How is everyone? Its so cold here. We had sleet last night. Picked OH up from work last night and he fell asleep on the sofa....I only realised when I woke up this morning.

    I managed to get Mum a huge box of thorntons (for Christmas) for £6. Also picked up some brand names of shower gel for £1 in Mr T's for OH and SS. Extra 'useful' stuff in their Christmas stockings. My clothes are getting a little tighter and I'm getting really bad pins and needles.

    Docs appointment went well. They are going to keep an eye on the pins and needles I'm getting. Got a few more Christmas presents. I had the strangest craving this morning, OH and I were in a cafe (whilst waiting on car being fixed .....that was £400 :( but necessary). I fancied macaroni cheese with crispy bacon and..........maple syrup!!!!!! :eek:. They looked at me a little strange but then said no problem. OH didn't bat an eyelid.
