            Just the normal clear lemonade - but I know it has to be non-diet (I suppose for the sugar
 )

            So much for getting the place vacumed, DH rang to ask if I could take his packed lunch to him, he forgot and left it in the fridge, so many DHs on this thread seem to do likewise, I hope it's not catching !!
As I had to go out I thought I'd post my cashback claim for my phone (look forward to the £60)
Poped in to Morrisons and found Stardrops and Starclean, I think Grannyboon mention this, I had never heard of it before so thank you. I've lots of stubborn stains to try it out on.
Bought some more wool in the discount shop 6 balls for £6 so hope to start the 6th square.
Candy: I hope it's not shingles, my DH had that last year and was given some gention violet to paint on the affected area and he could taste it all the time yuk!
Mary43 : It's natural to worry about kids no matter how old they are, mine are doing fine but I still worry and always will. Once a Mum, s/Mum/ F/mum always a Mum. Just think he could be worse off without your past care. We all have to learn by our mistakes and I'm sure he will.
Hope all have a good day.0 -

            Hello everyone :hello:
I am still here!! I have my last day off today, so being really lazy - we are all still in our PJs, had lovely hot chocolate with marshmallows and squirty cream this morning, and DD and i are now watching a DVD (Practical Magic). Will be having a big bubble bath later, once the DVD is finished, i really do need to do some dusting and hoovering, but that can wait for a bit.
Nothing exciting happening here, have washed DSs bedding, managed to get it outside for a couple of hours before it rained again, so its almost dry (over the bannisters now) and the BM has made us a lovely half/half loaf. After the dusting/hoovering/DVD watching i need to decide what to make for dinner - no idea at the mo, will prob end up being freezer surprise!!
