    Hi Panda! Yeah, the ending was a bit sad, partly about some fairly "off" comments from my mum, tho thankfully I stood up to her this time. I had a little cry when I got home, and was fine then.

    I feel fine today tho - I'm just trying to reload my Amazon listings, for instance, but I can't find them when I search through Amazon, so I've sent an email to them asking what's going on. And I'm ploughing through the emails I've got to do/reply to, and the various catchup things. Buying fresh food will take precedence this afternoon tho - don't even have any onions! - and the weather is so beautiful here, I *have* to get out! How are you? I read your thread, you sound busy busy busy.

    Excellent! I didn't know about it, will put it on my calendar for next year!

    I've been on and off the computer all morning, but have managed to do the washing up and even cook a quick lunch. Just one more cup of coffee then, and out to the shops: depositing cheques; buying coffee, matches and fresh food, posh choccie as a late pressie, one more M&S voucher for my sister, thats about it.

    Hiya! Didn't quite do it all - I was a bit late getting out, so didn't bother going to the bank, except to get some cash. Got the food (forgot the coffee, rats!) Actually, I forgot to do approx 50% of what was on my list.... and I was looking at the list. OTOH, I bought the official exercise DVD of Strictly Come Dancing - for £2. Thanks Martin - he said Superdrug had a 90% sale on, which is where I got it. I'll have to go out again tomorrow, thats all, since the people I was *trying* to buy presents for, I'm seeing them for my little New Year's bash.

    Since I got in .... um, I had something to eat..... okay, I've faffed. And enjoyed myself!

    Trying to get things lined up for the new year - if only in my head! But today am not going to worry too much - nice frosty walk with dogs, quiet evening with OH and some mulled wine seeing in new year....

    Enjoy your party karma!
