    what did you win

    Possibly an iPod nano, definitely excited happy jumping all over the place children in the morning. The biggest prize here for me will be seeing the kids faces that they believe they have the best Christmas tree out of everybody, they were so excited about this.

    My previous post is the first time I have opened up at all on the forum and well, you all made me cry, with tears of gratitude! I feel so much better now - the power of the elite

    Yes, lists have been made already and actually it has given me something else to focus on rather than my mum. I have a lot of problems with my memory anyway (suffer from fibromyalgia among other things) so lists and I are very good friends.

    As she sounded much better today I am now going on Tuesday so I can take her to the cemetery as it is anniversary of my brother's death on Wednesday.

    I find cooking quite easy (famous last words) so it should be quite routine and if they don't have everything, they will know what to do.

    My partner is very grateful as is his mum so that makes it easier to do. And as a final addition, my partner's ex is suffering from early onset Alzheimers.

    So, thanks again. Head up and feeling better.

    Do you think we should be able to bottle the power of the elite ?? Just think what we could cure

    Pauline

    Lovely words

    You sound like a caring person who has coped with more than this. :A

    Oh that's a bit spooky:eek: .....or was it just random?? oh how exciting. you must be :j:j:j

    Funnily enough Im not in any hurry to be a grandmother? It seems absolutely no time at all since you found out

    Yes spooky and random, she had never met him before and was uneasy he touched her bump but he did it so quick before she could say anything and it took her by surprise. Hopefully not too long for her to see if he was right.

    Believe me I am in no hurry either FC but unfortunately you don't get to choose. :o Time has gone far too quickly. :eek:

    Just hope baby either comes before xmas day or after. Have a feeling if tradition carries on she will be in labour on another family member's birthday on boxing day and deliver day after. That happened with 2 of my DDs I was in labour on other people's birthdays.

    Thanks so much to everyone who helped achieved this for us, the kids will be absolutely delighted, they went to bed thinking everybody just loved the tree they helped put up.

    They will be so excited in the morning when they find they got the most votes and won. :T:T:T

    Many heartfelt thanks, I'm off to bed been up from 6am after doing a carboot sale, a birthday party, putting up the tree and then entering this competition and just having to stay up to see the results.

    The power of the Elite remains unbeaten woohoo. :T:T:T:T:T
    Love to see their faces when you tell them,Well done:j:j:j
