I have put DS2 trainers and DS1 footie boots in the dishwasher as I could not stand the smell - like cats wee - hoping I have done the right thing.

I put my DHs trainers in the washing machine and they actually were covered in cat's wee! Came out good as new but please don't anyone take this as advice to do it as they were only cheapies and not designer or anything!!

almost packed, warming up last night's leftovers for lunch.... getting there...

And from us three, 2nd Christmas without DH. Got some beautiful flowers to take on Christmas morning. I've also been thinking of Stormbay, some of you might hve read her thread. Her DH died one year ago yesterday.

Here's to all those no longer with us and those who have lost someone close.

I went to se a local homeopath last week who suggested chamomilla I think it was, not the one pigpen mentioned but that didn't do a thing. I may see if they are available Monday to try something else. I have tried taking Arnica but that hasn't helped either. I think you are right, feeling under the weather makes me so moody especially when sleep is even further reduced.

Freezer stock list done, my goodness it's shocking, well I can cross another few things from the shopping list that is for sure. Enough to feed a small army but no chicken, so will have to get that as we use a lot of chicken. Half a cow in there however I think.

I've been thinking of absent friends and loved ones today aswell, we will most likely be popping up to the cemetary here on Christmas eve, pop in to see a few friends and family members who are no longer with us. I called in to where my Grandfather is burried last week and left him some chocolate coins and some flowers. I know my Dad's family will take flowers up for Great Grandma, like he said to me if she even thought we were spending a fortune on going there to put flowers she'd have gone crackers, so he takes over that job from all of us. LJD1 I am sorry to hear about your friends partner, my thoughts are with them and their family at this very sad time aswell as you.

AnWsMum, I've been thinking of Stormybay aswell as you guys, my friend who lost her Dad on Christmas day a few years ago, I just hope that others thinking of those at what can be a sad aswell as happy time will be of some comfort to them.

Thinking of all those we have lost who loved us, who we still love, and those who are without a loved one this Christmas.

Ok what else can I stock up on from Wilkinsons, so far I have washing powder, soda crystals, stardrops, zoflora, bleach, toilet rolls, tissues, deoderant, shower gel, hairspray, what else do they do cheap? Oh and yes, I plan on buying enough to last a year as it'll arrive after Christmas when I have got my cupboard back which is filled with 'Christmas'

Dishwasher - I heard it was better than the washer as it does not tumble them around - they are out - they look ok just need to see if they have shrunk - downside is runners in the DW as now all gritty so OH dismantling it now to rinse them.

I will pop over to Stormy's thread next.

Wrapping all done now except for 2 big things which are easier to wrap and put straight under the tree rather than move twice.

Just need another cuppa, get the soup out the AGA and then hoovering I think. Just checking my list like the big guy in red should be doing now.
