    back again...

    Dont know where the days gone!!:confused: pop to asda for milk and bread then before you know it - time to get DS from school and then take DD to ballet!

    I also popped into Big W's (Woolies) to check out the xmas toy prices so I can also compare with online etc. You daren't go in there with the kids in tow!!:eek: :rotfl:

    Tea will be sausage n mash.

    Happy Birthday to Miss Luxor!!

    csarina - do you meal plan?? you always have such lovely dinners ready each day!!

    grannybroon - yes you need to take it easy you have been busy lately. This thing does happen when you get stressed and too much running about. take care x

    crazychick - I get that all the time with my thanks button - I press it and it just sits there starring at me!

    mioliere - put colin down at once!!!
  • Afternoon all
    Big hugs to Grannybroon.
    I had a phonecall today from DD2, she & her partner have decided to get married in 5 weeks time!!! She'll be 7 & half months pregnant with DGD. She's wearing the bridemaids dress she wore for EXDH's wedding, she's taken my advice & is getting married in the morning so with any luck EXDH will be sober & less likely to start an argument. God knows what I'll wear, lol, no time to save up, so it will be something out of my existing wardrobe. EXDH's new wife has already seen the suit she is buying, it's £750, so I can't compete on that level. They aren't having a reception, just a drink in a local pub, so I'll give that a miss, I just want to see the ceremony. EXDH & wife arrive back from the Caribean the Wednesday before the wedding, so they should have lovely suntans.
    I'm going to the W.I. at 7, hope everyone has a good evening.
    Hugs Hester

    Hi There

    Thanks so much for your good wishes and I think I have been given a wee warning. I have been doing too much and yes I am going to slow down! Had a good day today having caught up with the washing, scrubbing the blood but pacing myself. Going to do a room at a time over the next week and as said before direct DH with the loft. Another thing I had on the list for next week was Costco. DH has been up the loft and taken an inventory of Toilet Roll (none), kitchen roll, orange juice etc so he will take me next week and we will buy as necessary. I tend to buy chopped toms and kidney beans from Lidl.

    CrazyC - sorry about the Hamster (methinks it was a bit younger than our Cookie who escaped as you know - did you not have a hamster escape in the car?????? Cookie getting rather slower but still loves his cuddles. DGSs will be sad when his time comes!).

    Mortgage-free Glee!
    Grannybroon, you mind you do slow down a bit! It's dawning on me that living life at a hundred miles an hour doesn't suit my body as well as it used to! You've had loads on lately - so take it easy!
    Resolution:
    Think twice before spending anything!
