Hi Everyone, trying to have a quiet day today just catching up on washing, surveys etc after having Thumper for the last two days, still have pain but trying to not take blooming painkillers after taking so much the last 12 days :eek:

FEISTY so glad you are at home now recovering, but aarggh having to cope with more stress from these stupid people!! Please try and not let it all get to you, you are coping with so much at the moment, sending lots of anti stress vibes/hugs, is it not possible to move in with the inlaws for a short period instead of having to rent? x

JJ hope you are on the right road to recovery now, and will be able to go home soon x

3FORHOLIDAYS thankyou my lovely, how are the comps going, how many are you up to now?

MRSMONEYPENNY thankyou lovely lady, hope you are balancing out running around after everyone with lots of cuddles with Pudding x

Freespirit thank you yes I get my Saturday fix of cuddles and snuggles, he is very adorable!
I've spent the parts of today (either side of paid stuff) making strips of the crocheted squares after planning out the colours, I had a random mix of colours in varying amounts do it was like doing a sudoku trying to lay them out.tonight plan is to fix the strips together, then I think about 3 bands round the edge should finish it off. Hopefully it should be done for the weekend.
Haven't started tea yet as Dh has been dentist this afternoon so not sure what he'll feel like till he gets home.

Freespirit Didn't manage to meet my target of 4000 competitions last month as real life got in the way and I also had some computer issues but still entered about 3800 in May. Must be crazy as I'm doing it this month too!

I've decided to switch to the new version of the forum - it is very white!

Evening everyone, i know we all say it every year but this year is scarily going so fast :eek:

MRSMONEYPENNY hope DH wasnt in too much pain from the dentists

3FORHOLIDAYS well you should still be proud of yourself 200 off of your target is still amazing!! Good Luck for this month :rotfl:

3forholidays that is a fantastic amount! Have you managed to win anything yet?

Free, I know what you mean. I am so unprepared for this years Christmas it's awful, but as we don't know if we are about to have to move in with the inlaws, I can't really buy anything. I fear it's all going to be a bit of a mad rush!

mrs-moneypenny

Morning all
I hope everyone is well and enjoying summer! Yes it's here at last.
DH had a filling I think it hurt his wallet more than his mouth and that's on NHS!
3fortheholidays well done on keeping the comping up, I must get back into it I haven't done any for a few weeks I used to do loads. Have you had a win yet? Keep plugging away they do come.Just did the front garden including hedge trimming so it looks nice and tidy.
Just going to finish edging the blanket, I got it all put together last night and did two edges so it will be done for the weekend.

Enjoy the sunshine everyone

Morning everyone, well my new M&S account was all swapped over today so i just tried it all out and ordered a set of Sophie La Giraffe books for Thumper and a Coca Cola cookbook stocking filler for DD1 :rotfl:I dont know if anyone is interested but the Sophie books were 3.99 they are even 8.99 on the works website plus with a 10% off code they were 3.59, Thumper loves chewing his gums on his Sophie that i bought him, dont know if he enjoys the gum massage or the squeaky noises more

FEISTY well its not as if you havent had other things on your mind my lovely, i think christmas can take a back seat with all you have on atm, there is still plenty of time x

MRSMONEYPENNY oh glad DH wasnt in too much pain, DD2 has taken advantage of free dental work while in first year of baby and had a wisdom tooth out, she is in so much pain, has had to go on antibiotics now!

mrs-moneypenny

My little pudding has a Sophie giraffe toy they are very cute aren't they, I'll look out for the books.
Feel for your poor DD hope the tooth probs are sorted soon.

MRSMONEYPENNY i have sent you the code in a PM
