    I don't have any chores to add, and won't get anything done until at least 2-3pm once my husband is out of bed (he is a heavy sleeper who snores but the moment a piece of cutlery hits the drawer he is awake!). I was mainly coming here to say thinking of you still Dusty and just remember that you've given Royal Paws a lovely life I bet and at least RP is with you until the end, you can't do anymore than you've done and you've given RP a comfortable end x

    I love Santa, when I was 18 and living with the OH, we went to my dads for Christmas about a week later we came home to find gifts under the tree, the logical part of my brain knows that OH`s dad had been in and left them there but in my heart I was like yep Santa's been lol.

    My thoughts are with you Dusty, hugs and sticks to all that need them.
    Thank you to everyone for DD1's birthday wishes, DD1, her boyfriend, DD2, the girls Dad and I went out for a meal last night. No [EMAIL="we1ghtw@tchers"]we1ghtw@tchers[/EMAIL] for me today after 2 big meals in 2 days :o

    2 loads of washing done and on the airers, another load in the machine. DW on. Some paperwork sorted and call made to my mum.
    The friend who runs a drama workshop I help out with has phoned asking if I can help out with another project she working on. Part of it involves me supplying some cake/s each week. They're to be sold at 50p each slice/cake so if anyone has any recipes that are good for this sort of thing please let me know.

    I've also blitz the bathroom, only thing not done is the floor steam mopped as the pad is waiting to be washed. I really need to buy some more but moneys a bit short at the moment :o I'm trying to work out if I can make some that will fit my steam cleaner :think:

    Posting my list. Got DS home again as still got a nasty cough - he came up to Knit & Knatter with me this morning and was as good as gold, bless him.

    Need to get DH a card; DS is making him one and I suspect DD will too. Was going to go to Mr S but DS looks tired and just wants to sit quietly doing the card so reluctant to take him out.

    ETA: Just vacuumed right through and whole house looks better, also cleaned the kitchen bin which is possibly one of my least favourite jobs!
