    Evening all, just thought would say hello and offer hugs to those who need one ((hugs)) been chaos here getting ready for our little break in Blackpool tomorrow. Almost finished now. Wonder how we'll get on with it being half board, not used to someone else doing the cooking, but will be a welcomed break to it. Will see you all next Saturday (ish) Hope you all have a lovely week :)
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Evening all!

    Just managing to squeak in today, although it's been a while since I've posted... H left this afternoon for a work week away and I have been a bit stroppy this morning, so not pleasant company:mad:

    Having work problems as well - someone I work with is being stroppy and obstructive and we have a big meeting tomorrow to try and sort it all out. Not looking forward to it but I am looking forward to it all being sorted out - famous last words!

    Off to do the washing up - have a good evening all!

    Good evening everyone....
    i am sooooo shattered !!!!!!!! had a great time at the sandcastle comp.. didnt win but had loads of fun.. two hours of bending and digging sure does take it out of you !!!!!! halfway through the comp a load of sea mist rolled in and it was a job to see anything. lots of people came to see us and the local rag took our photo !!!!! hope it gets in as they took loads of photos of all the entries.

    just done a bit of weeding in the veggie patch.. i put my wellies on in case there where frogs !!!!!! shorts and wellies you can imagine what i looked like !!!!!... going to have a long hot bubbly bath and an early night.. have a busy week ahead...

    Amie - glad u had a great time at your comp, pity u didnt win though;)

    Am off to aberdeen early tomorrow, well at 9 so maybe not that early:D back to hospital for them to check how my gum is getting on and to see whether the bit of gum they took out was what they thought it was, they have to check these things i guess.

    My mouth is all better now,was agony for a while though:rolleyes: then have dentist on 19th as i really dont want it coming back again!

    Anyway have to meal plan/do lists etc and try and find some recipes for homemade beauty stuff, really hate using products that arent natural.

    sorry to hear of your loss dlb (((HUGS)))

    Dont seem to have got much done myself today but also havent stopped :confused: anyway I got my meals planned for the week and did the top up shop that I was supposed to do yesterday. Popped to see my Nana for a couple of hours, she is looking really well at the moment so long may it continue. She has been given this pain relieving 'pen' sort of thing - called 'pain gone' it apparently works like acupuncture without the needles and she was saying it has really helped her so I am pleased her pain is relieved.
    Did a bit of baking and made a batch of cherry muffins and chocolate chip with banana ones. I have frozen a few as soon as they cooled or there is no way they would last 24 hours in this house :o
    Right got to go as DD needs the computer to do her homework :rolleyes:

    Evening all! :wave:

    Sorry to hear your news, dlb. Best wishes to your family.

    Had a lovely morning at one of the Farm open days http://www.farmsunday.org/farmsunday/

    We chose this one http://www.blazefarm.com/ because it had an ice-cream shop and little tea-room selling real diary ice-cream! Ended up spending a fortune and bringing two tubs home with us. We deserve a treat! ;)

    Also had a kid's birthday party to attend this afternoon so I'm shattered now. Just need to sort out the laundry and then I'll probably have an early night. I was planning on listing some stuff on eBay tonight but I'll put that off until later in the week. :rolleyes:

    Hope tonight isn't as humid and muggy as last night. Sweet dreams all and welcome to the thread to loopylass81 and james240. :wave:
