Has the warm front we're meant to be sending you from the south east not arrived yet?TrulyMadly wrote: »Oh thanks bubbs...I want to read back but I am soooooo tired. I came in from work and went straight out for a run. I have all this pent up energy and it's driving me mad. It's like Spring is here but it's still Winter:o
There's so much I want to do outside but it's dark when I get in and the weather is always crap at the weekend.
Are you still swimming? I find that a good way to burn off energy.0 -

Are you feeling better today?Sealed pot challenge number 003 £350 for 2015, 2016 £400 Actual£345, £400 for 2017 Actual £500:T:T £770 for 2018 £1295 for 2019:j:j spc number 22 £1,457Stopped Smoking 22/01/15:D:D::dance::dance:- 5 st 1 1/2lb :dance::dance:0 -
Turned cold here tonight, glad my heating is working
. This morning I sat outside in a sunny area of the garden quick is sheltered from any breeze. Two hours I was out there reading
. Thought afterwards I could have been doing something productive :cool:
I have a problem with Mr AJ, his shopping habits are changing, he's officially a womble :eek:
Three times a day when he's taking his walk he's been going past Mr A. The penny has now dropped to look at what gave the money back and he's sorting out his shopping list A v T :rotfl: :rotfl:There's no place like home
Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.
Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.0 -

Yeah I couldn't resist :rotfl:'I solemnly swear that I am up to no good'0 -
Just been catching up, I've got a Nectar card but very rarely shop at Mr S as he isn't local to me
. I do have a decent balance sitting in my Nectar account and ought to think about putting it to good use :money: There's no place like home
