I took the two boxes upstairs (using one of them as a lid) and decided to sort out my keepsakes box. Found a load of old birthday & xmas cards so they're to one side to recycle. Also found my box of negatives & photo guides which is going to help me sort out the photos on the computer as they're all labelled I'll finally be able to work out when pics of DD when she was a baby/toddler were taken I even found some negatives of pics I don't think I have so I'll check and then will have to find a way of scanning them in if I haven't got digital copies. Sorted all the contents out, then gathered various other things that I knew were in my room that belonged in there and managed to fit it all into the 'new' box with room to spare so the negatives box can go back in there when I'm finished with it I then used my 'old' box to put all the stray items that were shoved in the cupboard in, so although I didn't chuck it, I've made more room in the cupboard and hopefully by the summer I should manage to rebox everything in there and get rid of the cheap boxes I've been using which keep falling apart :j

I'm going to grab something to eat and then start peeling some spuds for tea while I watch something on TV. I'm making a slowcooker potato bake for the first time Just hoping DD likes it!

been to the monthly food market; bought artisan bread, pasta sauce, butcher's sausages and heavenly cakes. Turns out I went to school with the heavenly cake baker and I got a discount! (Business is called heavenly cakes) - we sat together in physics; her daughter is now an astro-physicist!

I have knitted a few more rows, done the spellings to give out on Wednesday and pegged out lots of !
I had a :coffee: and a

I had the tiredness and sore boobs from a week after conception with most of mine.. I was awful with the last 2 I couldn't stay awake until I was about 6 months pregnant.

I knew from the time DS was conceived - I spent 2 weeks going 'well i might be pregnant' and mates looked at me as though I was a bit daft! The test was done on the first day possible and was very positive!

And I too had that horrid metallic taste in my mouth - BUT - only with DS... Weird or what?

Happy birthday, mumto5!

Hoppy Birdday Mumto5 :beer:
I'm an Aries, born on the cusp of Taurus - so I have the Aries temper, together with the Taurus stubbornness.:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::D:D
Mr LW is a lovely, gentle Sagittarius - so we're both Fire signs.:o

Busy day here - been into town to collect Mr LW's meds (for high blood pressure), also bought some multi-vitamins, as we're running low. He dropped me off home and went and did the F&V run - Stony Stratford market - and filled the car with petrol. We've taken Megan for a constitutional, and now just finished dismantling the deceased greenhouse - Mr LW has taken the pieces up to the tip, along with some other detritus he had stored in the shed - dead lightbulbs, etc.

Talking of metallic taste in the mouth - I get this a lot, but have no idea why. Nowt to do with "pitterpatters" I can assure you - we've both had our little operations, and AF departed the Wolf's Lair well over three years ago and hasn't been seen since!:D Just one of life's little mysteries, I guess.:o

Ah, I hear the car outside, so I guess the tip wasn't too busy.

Later, people.;)

Happy birthday Mumto5!

Dog's tummy is seriously unsettled again. Apart from a sneaky trip downstairs to the back door at about 6.00am this morning to declutter her stomach contents, until 15 minutes ago she had not moved all day. She is now busy trying to work out how to get the wafer thin beef into herself without the Prokolin and Propalin, although she doesn't know she's had an antibiotic already. (White chocolate does have some use, I suppose.) Carpet scrubbing is occurring. Again.
