    Morning

    Been out to play in snow and do some "digging aka clearing drive. It wouldn't be too cold other than the biting wind and we lasted maybe half an hour. The road is like a skating rink, all ice packed from being driven over. We've just about cleared our drive and I've salted it.

    Hoping my dad will make it up here today, but not heard from him as yet. WM x 1 and DW x 1 done and emptied. Mini meringues made, kitchen s&s and birthday present wrapped.

    Gammon for dinner, was in freezer and I need to run it down. Used some last bits of frozen veg bags yesterday, should be able to switch off second freezer in a couple of weeks.

    Kids want chips with theirs. I will have carrot and swede mash I think. I've some more veg in the fridge that wants using...

    Need to get nursery bits ready tonight, and look at how I'm going to fasten DS bunting to his ceiling...

    Woot! The Valligirl's got herself a P/T job!

    A months trial, and induction this week....and STAFF DISCOUNT and it's in Mr. Ms!

    add to that she has taken tablets whole (I remember posting on here for advice a couple of years back) today too!

    woot woot

    Hope Juliejim's ok...

    Congrats to the Valligirl on both counts!

    DD2 only mastered tablets in any form at the back end of last year after the practice nurse told her she'd have to learn because she couldn't have kiddie medicine fore ever ( too expensive!)

    Now she takes an oil of evening primrose capsule evry day - and you'd think she'd been doing it for years!

  • Morning all

    It's after 11 and I'm still in my pjs :o:p

    Waiting for the bumpkin teens to come home; one from a local sleepover and one from London, hopefully for a few weeks :j :j

    Mrsgibbs :grouphug: I do feel for you, stay strong and pm if you need xx

    folam welcome :T take it slow at first; small changes make a big difference

    bossy we're having gammon too! I will have to be inventive with the veggies as it's really cold out and I'm too much of a wuss to go to the shops :cool: I'll have to see what's in my stash.... hmmm... do you think if I lightly fry tinned potatoes in garlic oil and then roast them they will pass as 'normal' roasts? I am so lazy really lol.

    Today I plan lots of binbag dances. There is a lot of tat which seems to sprout up when my back is turned. Also there is a charity bag to be collected tomorrow so I will fill with the clothes I can no longer fit into :o

    Love, hugs, sticks, spoons, and anything else that you need/want xx

    More snow here again so think I'm going to do some baking and full roast for tea :D But first I do need to go and get myself showered and dressed.

    The kitchen is clean and tidy and the DW unloaded but I still need to:
    S&S bathrooms
    Load WM
    Put the dry laundry away

    LW hope you and Mary have a good month.
    MrsGibbs hugs and strength to you at this time

    Kazw I'm very impressed with your resolve! Stand firm; or lounge around reading a good book and be firm if you don't feel like standing ;)
