    Morning everyone

    I hope you all slept well. It's a bit early still, wish I was still sleeping, but even the best part of a bottle of wine can't work its magic on me these days.

    Just have a few errands to run in town - not least buy a decent supply of fruit and veg as I seem to have run out. There is a choice of one greengrocer, but at least it is a decent one. I heard there is a new farm shop opening locally, so I might go and see if I can find that.

    My kitties are fine, Teddy has been trying to scoff my porridge the naughty boy. He really likes human food, even spicy stuff like curry (I don't have it especially hot though) and he likes crisps as well. I do feed him proper cat food though.

    Actually I am coming over all sleepy again, might toddle off back to bed and see what happens.

    Bye for now.

    morning Snowy and all that follow
    (((((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))) to all that need them
    today I have to start making dd birthday cake ready to be cut about and iced tommorrow and I might try and get some of the fairy cakes done and put in a tin to save me some time
    read the riot act to ds1 & 2 I had a cause to go into their bedroom yesterday (does'nt happen often I try and treat them a bit grown up) and I couldn't see the carpet let alone what colour it is so they will have a certain length of time to tidy up after that anything left on the floor goes in the bin
    more washing and drying I'm hoping it's going to be a good drying day
    try and find something for dinner the kids are not a problem with food it's me I'm on a total fat free diet and salad gets a bit boring so if anyones got any ideas?

    pam
    I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was going to blame you

    Morning all,

    I am tired too, my baby isn't too well and had me up 3 times last night - just sterilising now and having first cup of tea whilst I wait for him to go back to sleep so we can get back to bed.
    Was supposed to be going to my nephews 1st birthday but won't be going as my little one is too poorly. I think we will stay in all day and cuddle up on the sofa with the animals at our feet (that's 2 dogs and a cat). Was hoping not to spend any cash but DH left his debit card in a bar and has to collect it from his friends house later today so that means DH will need my money to buy nephew's birthday pressie this morning - a wheelybug! (have you seen them they are great all our special relatives get given one on special birthdays).
    Haven't got much food in, have been craving biscuits - may attempt to make some with ingredients in cupboard or make banana bread in the bread machine. mmm
    Anyway, back to the steriliser...yawn

    Have a good day y'all

  • Morning Snowy, dlb,liney, mrs-mix and all who follow :hello:

    Well am offically on HOLIDAY :j :j :j :j

    Two whole weeks of no w**k - and I enjoy my job :D:D

    Well plans for today are ........................... watch my 'boys' win a very important match, it will make or break our season.

    Other than that not much, need to start writing alist of stuff we need to pack for part 1 of our holiday ..... off to Barcelona on Tuesday for four days.

    Did the ironing last night, OH is under instructions to come home from work, empty his clothes into the WM and turn it on. I hate coming home to washing that was already there before you went away IYKWIM :confused:

    Well need to get a wriggle on, the train leaves at 8:30

    Have a great day

    Morning All:hello:

    Well, feel like taking myself off for a wander around the local charity shops but as there's nothing I want or need it seems a bit silly:rolleyes: I try to avoid the shops at the weekend anyway.

    We have a new back gate being fitted this morning (it was part of our uber-expensive patio deal) so will lurk in the living room with Spud so that I can keep cups of coffee supplied to the workman (who is also our neighbour & very good friend ; I llike keeping money local!) then I guess a general tidy up & clean round, maybe a snooze when Spud naps as he has taken to getting me up at 2am again:rolleyes:

    Dinner will be leftover sausage casserol.

    Have a good day everyone:wave:

    Morning Snowy, mrs_mix, Liney, dlb, Amanda and Lillibet :hello: :hello:

    Wow! I'm on here early-ish! :j :j :j Actually, I would still be in bed if I didn't have a stomach ache........... I think that I ate too much last night when we went out for our meal :whistle: :D It was lovely and thought it was a really nice thing for the friends to give us money to spend it frivilously on a meal. When do you normally get money to spend frivilously? :confused: :rolleyes:

    Today is yet another rugby match......... not that I'm complaining, you understand. Oooooooooooooooooooh no! A whole 80 mins of staring at 30 men in little shorts with gorgeous legs. Sorry, I mean watching a game of skill and determination :rolleyes: :D :rotfl:

    Tonight we're going out for ANOTHER meal. The parents of a friend (friend currently living and working in Australia) are going to be in our town and have invited us to have supper with them. Last time they came they insisted on paying for the whole thing, which was lovely but we're going to try to pay our way tonight!

    Anyway, I'd better go. I've got a cup of tea in front of me that just needs drinking ;)

    Vicky

  • Morning all *yawn*

    Not a good night's sleep here either :confused: Feel like I could sleep for another 12 hours, not that I'll get the chance :) I'm so tired I read it that Mrs Mix was going to start making bird seed :rotfl:

    Started the final draft of my business plan last night but gave up around 10.30 because my head was spinning. Think I should have put my specs on (worn about twice a year, but I think they'll be used more often now)

    I think it's going to be an OK day today weather wise. I need to wash the boys' bedding as well as the normal laundry. Did ours on Thursday and also managed to clear both boys rooms yesterday. May even get Mr TM to drag the vax down from the attic as I'm fed up of looking at an increasingly grubby living room carpet. May take all the seats out of the car and do that too. Mr TM can take the boys into town. DS1 wants to spend his toothfairy money (£1) but there are lots of £1 shops around :D

    Ok, I'm going to have a surf while I eat my cereal. Have a good day everyone and (((hugs))) all round.

    TM xxx
