Hello!
Decided last night that I'd be really good and would make some homemade bread, make my friend's homemade present and do some work for university, but woke up feeling a bit rough, so haven't done anything. Grr.
I'm quite new round these parts, so bit nervous about posting here, heh0 -

Afternoon all..........really cold and windy here. Blue skies so at least it looks more cheerful.
OH did the hoovering this morning..................my job to go round with the duster and generally 'tidy up'.................then must finish de-cluttering desk, taking stuff to spare room that I'd forgotten about, plant hyacinth bulbs and herbs I had as belated christmas present (meant to do them two days ago)
phone calls I really must make and do my notebooks for keeping track of my spending...............oh dear, worn myself out now thinking about it..............lol:j
Thought I was coming down with a cold yesterday but lemon and honey last night seemed to drive it away...................lol:T
Have a great day and keep warm:jMary

Good afternoon everyone,
((hugs)) mrsmix, im sorry you didnt get better news xxx
Noahsmummy - i must be wierd too, my DS has been at school for 6 1/2 years, and DD 5 1/2 years and i still miss them - im one of the few who look forward to the school holidays!!!
Happy Anniversary Mr and Mrs Pooky xx
Well back from the doctors, and i did have brilliant news - my levels last week were 117!!! I am amazed, i havnt had a level that high since i was on the steroids, and even then it didnt stay that high. So, tomorrow i will be armed with loads of questions for my consultant, and i will be going with the expectation that i wont have to go again!!! Mind you, the nurse did make a bit of a mess of taking my blood today, so will have a very fetching bruise on my arm later!!
So far, i have cleaned the bathroom and toilet floor, and done all the dusting downstairs (with LO helping me!!!). I still need to do the kitchen floor, but i think i will do that tonight after dinner. Will be making a spag bol tonight, so DD will be pleased as its one of her favourites.
OK, LO having a sleep, so im going to have my lunch and maybe enter a few comps!
Have a lovely afternoon,
Take care xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx0 -

Afternoon everyone, hope you all had a good Christmas and a happy new year! Hope those of you feeling grotty get better soon - I had an evil cold over Christmas, but it seemed to go away in time for me to start back at work today
Always the way
I spent all weekend catching up on the laundry from being away as OH's mum wouldn't let me launder clothes when we were away as she has a supersition that you can't do any washing between Christmas and new year becuase it's bad luck :eek:
((hugs for mrs_mix)) and welcome NickiM
have a good day all, cel x:staradmin:starmod: beware of geeks bearing .gifs...:starmod::staradmin:starmod: Whoever said "nothing is impossible" obviously never tried to nail jelly to a tree :starmod:0 -

Might go and wash the car later - more exercise!;)Do what you love :happyhear0 -
Afternoon all..............(((((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))) if you need one especially Mrs Mix.
We have been to the hospital for OH o get his X Ray done, it cost me £1 to park, and it was b****y freezing waiting for him, it took almsot and hour and a half to do the job. We then went to Tesco, my lense dropped out of my glasses yeatserday, I had to report to sewing the bits together as a temporary measure. Made an appointment to get my eyes tested againm its more than 2 years since I had the last one.
OH has a meeting tonight, so cold chicken, salad and lemon and coriander cous-cous, with the remains of the creme caramel.
Nothing else planned for today. I have a quilting frame on ebay, its due to finish this afternoon, so more cash for the US holiday. I bought it last year and have never used it........so its going. I am hoping to do more machine quilting, my hands are about Kn******d, very painful if I try to do too much hand quilting.
Off just now to see a freind and try and sort out paying her telephone bill by DD.............its a long story, but involves theft which unfortunately we cannot prove..........Was 13st 8 lbs,Now 12st 11 Lost 10 1/4lbs since I started on my diet.0 -

parentgirl, i would loooove to but .... have fair worn myself out,, maybe next week ?
Soup is simmering away tastes fab, and all from leftovers and veg/ potato peelings, also bunged the last bit of stilton in.
Done the veg for tonight and tomorrow, and made DD's pasta for the week.
Has to dash out and get the washing in as the sky suddenly went black and it poured, its blowing a gale now as well really high winds, it was blowing a bucket up in the air !! will go and rescue it in a while.
catowen :T :T well done on your blood levels fingers crossed for you x
when I read your posts I always wish I had a child minder like you when my DD was small, I had some terrible ones which never lasted longer than the hour test visit, finally found a lovely older lady who was brilliant my DD used to call her 'nan' but she had to give childminding up due to ill health.
Nickim don't be nervous we are quite nice, welcome xx0 -
Catowen glad your bloods are ok hopefully you won't have to go any more
pam xxI didn't say it was your fault, I said I was going to blame you
I am one of the English sexy Shelias
I'm also a hussy0
