Hmm this week I really need to crack on with the knitting/crafting in general AND shake off this cold/cough (currently sound as though I have a 100 a day smoking habit! :eek: and coughing with a broken breast bone is a definite OWIE :eek::eek:)
Books wise I am a couple of weeks ahead of schedule (yay me!), so in a way I don't need to worry so much about that - but as I say the crafting has fallen well behind (err by now I should have the borders and three months done on the Winnie the Pooh year AND another knitted square done)
What else? Hmm well I am well on track with the savings and paying off the CC so happy with that, in fact a smidgeon ahead on the CC bit :beer::beer::beer:
Weight :whistle:, the least said about that the better :rotfl: still I have the rest of the year to crack that and it will be easier once salad season kicks in again :jMust use my stash up!0 -
Knit Witch I am sorry to hear you have had the Black Dog visit along with a broken breast bone and a cough.

At the moment the only thing I can eat is ice cream! :eek::eek::eek: anything else hurts the throat too much - I dread to think what my next weigh in will be like :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Must use my stash up!0 -
