    A good life is when you assume nothing, do more, need less, smile often, dream big, laugh a lot, and realise how blessed you are.

    Have a lovely holiday, His Missus, I am pretending it is sunny and warm here, but the cold toes and fingers don't believe me. If I could find my GUAG I'd do something, but as it got up and went I may just drink coffee and read my seed catalogues.
    DD is still not driving, her arm is swollen and bruised, so I may have to do 'sick visiting' with a bag of 'spoiley treats' for her. Perhaps I'll bake her a cake? lol, no I want her to get better!

    Mrsinvisible well done on the dress shopping, that was such a bargain and to have a credit note :) brill. Oh your poor DD :( that sounds so painful, please, please don't bake her a cake, she's poorly! But hope you managed a bag of treats :) Hope your friend manages to find a good home for her dog! You were as always very wise you'd think she'd listen! Happy skyping tomorrow :) any news on DSs job? xxx
    his missus enjoy your holiday! I can't think of anybody that deserves it more xxx
    Msgigglewick the floods are horrendous, I hadn't realised you were so close. I'm not one really for watching the news but the bits I've seen about the homes effected is heartbreaking. I can not imagine what the poor families are going through. And like Freespirit mentioned some of the homes have flooded several times. Bricks and mortar can be replaced but imagine loosing your keepsakes. I shudder to think how people are coping. You are doing so well Christmas wise, puts me to shame! Had a little giggle thinking of you knitting, bet you could do it in your sleep now! I'm going to peep on etsy at the Arran capes :) I've been playing with some recipes too to make them more SW friendly :) we will get rid of this last stone won't we xxx
    Pixtotts I neeeeed a trip to Dunelm xxx
    Mrs M happy weekend xxx
    Pigpen I love the cartoon! seen it a few times now! it's so simple for non sufferers to understand and suffers to realise we are not alone xxx
    Sequeena oh no that's such a shame that T's op didn't work, loving that you are managing to stay positive. Really hoping for positive news on the 17th. Well done you :) we are all rooting for you xxx

    It's not the things you do at Christmastime

  • Pixtotts - thanks so much for sharing your blog. :)

    his missus - enjoy your holiday, you deserve it.

    Received Ikea delivery this afternoon, so it will be all hands on deck tomorrow.

    DS due in from work anytime now. Once he is fed he will probably disappear up to his den and DH and I were supposed to be watching a film but we are both so tired I am pretty sure neither of us will see the end of it. Anyone recommend anything on Netflix? (just in case we stay awake). :rotfl:

    Take care everyone
