Busy busy

Wow has this been a busy week so far and its not over yet!!! I have a little time before i have to go colect Leon from the school disco i was only picking him up from school two hours ago as he had a rugby match and now hes back there again until i go collect him at 9pm.

Tuesday was busy the boys went with the cadets to the towns majors palour with the cadets i had to collect them just after 9pm and when we got back Leon and I rescued a frog that was hoping about on the road and placed him in the school field out of harms way i am supprised how many people have said its bad luck to touch a frog but id rather pick it up than see it squished on the road i like frogs!!!! the way things are going with me hopefully it will bring some good luck after all in all the fairy stories dont the princesses kiss a frg to get a prince??? id hardly call that bad luck LOL

On wednesday i decided to take down my cutains and shorten them so the heat comes out from the radiators instaed of into the curtains and they look so much better all they need now is for me to go over the stitching with my sewing machine i dyed the off cuts with a chocolate brown dye and i am going to be recovering my dining room chairs with them so they are cleaner than the dirty white they are at the moment and i like the colour they came out so much ive decided im going to get more dye and change my curtains from cream to chocolate brown and i want to dye the cusion covers on my sofa too. Last night Leon was also in bed at 5pm with a really bad migraine i think it was his body telling him he needs a break so i decided to scrub all my kitchen units and appliamnces as everything seems to be a dog level and they seemed grubby but they are sparkling for now i went to wake Leon at 9pm to get his uniform off him and then he decided he wanted food he ate it and was back in bed by 9.20pm and i was shaking him up this morning but was insistant he was fine and so far so good.

I also managed to get somemore done on my dragon last night for a bit anyway and i have done even more today so fingers crossed it will be done soon cos im getting sick of the sight of it. Well its friday tomorrow so i guess i am taxi mum untill 8pm then i get a bit of piece before they get in from cadets so if i not back before have a great weekend everyone :-)

Monday again already

I dont know the weeks seem to be getting quicker and quicker these days and christmas is slowly but surely creeping up quicker than any of us like to think too!!! which is why i am desperatly trying to get santas dragon done before my decorations go up next month i am keeping at it but i am so disapointed when do a good few hours on it and countless stitches and then when i look at it i think is that really all ive done????? heres a new wip picture for you all to see im not getting too dis heartened yet though i will keep up trying to get it complete in time.Saying that ive got nothing done on it so far today ive just been too busy ive cleaned all of downstairs this mornning living room kitchen and bathroom all my floors are cleaned and ive dried one lot of clothes on the line and have another out and ive dried 3 lots in the tumble drier and have another lot in there and another wash on the go!! i also have a cawl simmering on the stove for tea and a loaf of bread baking i still have my leather sofas to get clean but i am taking a break as my back is killing me and my chest is a bit tight for a minute but ill be fine after ive had this cuppa. The boys will be home soon so i may leave the sofas untill tomorrow we are in tomorrow awaiting some of the things we have starting getting for them for xmas i wont say too much as they both know where this page is lol.The postman was late today he was here just before 2pm i really didnt think he was coming but when he did i recieved the fabbie i had won from Jackies contest on threads and yarn it is 28ct evenweave so i think its about time i learned how to stitch over 2 so this is the perfect oppurtunity to do so and the fabbie is just so pretty i am looking foward to having a go at some pointOh well no rest for the wicked i suppose id better get on!!!

Its friday!!!!

The start of the weekend which means i get a lay in tomorrow which is great!!! The house is lovely and quiet at the moment with the boys in cadets after id picked Leon up from school rugby training then feed them droped Leon off at kick boxing come back droped Jake at cadets then went back to pick Leon up and drop him at cadets9PHEW! LOL) so im sluming it tonight and relaxing with a martini and lemonade whilst i cook a pizza in the oven and watching eastenders. Yesterday afternoon i went to the nurse for my flu jab and my arm has been killing me but tonight its feeling so much better thank goodness.

I had a nice quiet day yesterday before i went to the drs though i managed to get a xmas piece done for my rr/orniment exchange on my board thats the first one from three this runs monthly for the next three months we all get 3 orniments back unfinished and we get to turn them into what ever we want which is all new to me but so far im enjoying it!!! I also managed to do a bit more on my santas dragon and to finish the last corner on the rr and i finished it so here is a photo for you all to see ;-)
What do you think? I love it!!!! and i am almost half way to doing 50 for Tonyas challenge on the sss board hhhmmm somehow me things im never gonna do 25 in the next 3 months!!!!

A crafty day.

Here are the goodies from the craft shop i got in Gorseinon yesterday all ready to start making my christmas cards for this year and today as it has been so wet cold dark and miserable here i thought i may just aswell make a start.
I have shocked myself this year with what i have managed so far i really didnt think i did too well last year with the cards i attempted to make but as it was my first real go i guess i shouldnt really be too disapointed i guess everyone has to start somewhere and i am just hoping to keep improving with practise :-)

We recieved this lovely gift in the mail this morning from Karen from the smo board she sent Donny a lovely get well card which i read to him and have put on the fire place and she sent me some more lovely halloween stuff and i just love it!!! she really knows what i like and just how to spoil me thankyou Karen :-)

I also finished off my halloween tree today and the boys helped me decorate it when they came home from school and the little houses underneath it are the ones i recived from Debra over on the smo board as part of a halloween exchange last year they just arrived a little too late for halloween so they are alll freshly built ready for this one.Its my first attempt at a halloween tree so im hoping it looks ok :-)

Monday catch up

Well its been a few days since ive found time to post as ive been so busy with everything here but i thought id take the time to let you sll know what it is ive been up to/. Well i finally finished the fantasy exchange on the old sss yahoo group im asuming that it has been recieved by now even though i havent heard and i mailed it first thing thursday morning and as it was just going to England so it should be there by now as it went first class so here is the dragon dreams chart i did the photo doesnt do the sparkles justice though and to be honest i really didnt want to post this one i loved the way it finished so so much but you cant always keep everything now can you!!! which is a real shame i must say oh well hopefully what ever i get back will touch me just the same :-)
Ive been spoilt again the last week with some lovely gifts first was this beautiful fabric from Trish from the smo board she told me she was sending the halloween fabbie but i really had no idea about the christmas one not that i mind at all as it is beautiful and such a lovely suprise thankyou trish!!!!
I also recieved my dmc from Maru which i won in her contest on the smo board and she has sent me some lovely colours all wrapped up in a beautiful trick or treat bag its was so beautifully done i really didnt want to open up the bag and take out the dmc so thankyou too Maru :-)

I would also like to think Twig off the smo board as well for sending Donny a lovely card to say she was think of him and what hes going through i have it sat on my fire place right now i put it there after i had read it to him and he also would like to say thankyou for your kind thoughts so thankyou so much Twig :-)

I have been busily trying to work on my santas dragon while i have been home the last few days i really am trying to get some done but i have been putting it down to do Donnys meds so its not hours at the time so progress is slow but i am getting there i promise i will take some photos by the weekend so you can all see. I also painted my halloween tree this week and the boys have told me its looking pretty cool which is nice to hear as always!!! i walked town saturday afternoon with Leon trying to get black glitter while Jake stayed at home with Donny but came home with none so we went up to the craft shop in Gorseinon today and i finally have some along with another £9 of stuff to make christmas cards lol i always seem to spend a fortune in that place which is why i try to avoid it as much as i can. I did make a start on my christmas cards on sunday afternoon before i watched my football match and i have a total of 4 so far hmmmm not very much but i guess its a start afterall!!! I will post photos when ive done a few more i promise!!! Back to the halloween tree i am running a contest on my message board the winner of the best tree will get a nice prize so if youd like to try please feel free to come join my board the link is in my links section.

Not good news.

As you all know today i was back up the hospital with Donny for his check up after his medical problem with his eyes reared its ugly head again last month well after the check up this morning we have found it has now returned in both eyes which really isnr good. He is now on meds every two hours in the newly infected eye and 4 times daily in the eye that hasnt cleared up. He can still see nothing in the eye that was first affected again and now next to nothing in the other especially when he has had his meds. We have to do this again for another month and wait for a new appointment to go back they are quite hopeful that the infection in the newly affected eye has been caught early but we will have to wait and see.

I needed to slip to tescos on the way home for a few things and had to try guide him around as he could see nothing when he came out of the hospital and then i brought him home where we have been for the rest of the day with the curtains pulled to try keep out the sun light id really deosnt do that much though as my curtains are cream. I made a phone call to the drs this afternoon as i need to get my flu jab as i cannot afford to be ill and the cold i had last week was bad enough so im going to get it done tomorrow i really dont want to go as i hate needles but i will.

While Donny was in the hospital this morning i slipped to the pond which is right by the hospital and i found the perfec thing to make my halloween tree im so excited i have posted a contest on my message board to get everyone else in on the fun!!!! When we got back from the hospital i kept myself busy trying not to think too much about the news we had today i baked a loaf of bread and cooked us some soup for lunch and then worked for a few hours on my santas dragon then i baked a chocolate loaf a pork dinner and some chocolate cakes before i had a bath and settled down to watch eastenders im now watching the man city match on the telly we normally watch bones because Donny likes it but ive just had to wakr him to give him his drops ive put the heating on so its nice and warm in here even though the wind is howling and its really pouring outside so its knocked him for 6.

Id just like to thamk all the ladies out there for your support at this time it means a lot to me.

Final halloween exchange finished for this year

Just a quick post today ove been busy cleaning this morning and ironing this afternoon and i shall be off soon to get tea started but before i do i wanted to share with you the halloween exchange i made for one of the ladies off the sanman board as she recieved it yesterday i almost didnt want to send it it came out so cool i did the skeleton and the moon in glow in the dark krenick also the heading on the tombstone so it really comkes to live in the night time. I just hope she enjoys it :-).

We are back up the hospital tomorrow for Donnys check up so please if you can id be really grateful if you could keep us in your thoughts and send some possitive vibes our way that would be great!!!

Sunny monday

Its another beautiful sunny day here i dont think its going to last much longer but im going to try and make the most of it i have a full line of washing out and another ready to join it to double the pile of ironing i have this afternoon lol We had a pretty quiet weekend here we did finally have the living room window replaced so now we are secure again after 3 whole months and it makes such a differace having a double glazed window in there i can tell you.I had a funny looking visitor on my washing line as you can see from the photo it will teach me to leave my pegs on the line!!!! but i can tell you ive never seen a spider that colour before ever.

I decided yesterday afternoon to go through all my stitching and paper craft stash and now at long last it has some order to it so hopefully in the next few weeks when i go to make my christmas cards ill be able to find everything.

I have a busy week planned aorund the boys activites and Donnys hospital apointment on thursday morning you all need to keep your fingers crossed for us that it will be good news please i dont think i can cope with much more bad. Oh well better get my bum shifting and get on with the rest of the housework these beds arent going to strip themselves now are they!! if only hey lol

Feeling much better tonight

I am feeling so much better tonight my tempreture is down and ive only taken two paracetomol alll day my head throat and nose feels much better but my chest is still a bit rough and i am still coughing a bit but that i can cope with.
Thia morning Donny and i recieved this lovely package from Lynda off the sanman board its so lovely to think we have friends out there who are so willing to send thier good wishes we are so lucky so thankyou Lynda it was all lovely and smelled so nice after being against the bath salts.Thankyou again for your very kind thought.
Now i finally have some time here are the photos of my boys with thier newly earned badges first is Jake with his seaman ship third class and then Leon with his cook stewart badge Leon is too young to have this badge as he is still a junior but they made the exception as he is going to be a new entry cadet in the next few months we are so proud of them both.

Still bunged up.

Good thursday morning to everyone i really havent been doing very much the last few days i am still so full of cold you wouldnt believe but believe it or not the more i sit down the worse i feel. I managed to get my car to the garage yesterday morning and now at long last the problem with my main beam is fixed so now i will be able to drive in the dark on my own which will be easier on a friday night with Leon and better that Donny can stay home so the headlights from oncoming cars wont hurt his eyes.

On the way home we stopped at tescos as i needed a few things but i really didnt feel like shopping so we werent in there long but i bumbed into one of my aunties and she told me one of my couisons had been hit off his bike by a car and at the time they didnt know if he was going to make it the first thing they new about it was when a police car turned up at the house and sped them to the hospital with the serions and lights going he had cut a vein in his head and at the roadside they couldnt stop the bleeding and he may of bled to death but luckily they managed to stop it by the time he got to the hospital and 32 stitches later he is week but alive. He is hoping to get back on the bike this weekend as it is the welsh trials but my auntie said she doesnt think he will be up to it he is so brave wanted to get back on his bike like that i dont think i would be. Anyway while we were in trostre Donny took me over to peacocks to get me new warmer pjs as the night before i was complaining i was freezing in bed thats not normally me so i guess it must be my cold you should of seen us me guiding him and him holding me up cos i felt so rough lol.
So when the kids came home from school then back in from playing footie with thier friends over the school i made everyone food the boys had a shower and disappeared upstairs to watch tv so i went to have a bath but the water was running cold i went to check the metere but there was still plenty of money in there even though i havent bought any for over 6 weeks so it turned out the red light had come on on my combi boiler so we had no heating of hot water all night still dont have in fact i did phone and was told to wait untill this morning and call back which i did but now have to stay in all day and wait for a cvall out not that i mind the way i am feeling at the moment. So i gave up and had a shower and put on my nice warm pjs and settled down to finish reading the book ive been reading which i really enjoyed i must say it was difficult as my eyes wrere streamimg but i managed it and then i was in bed just after 11pm to try and get some sleep not thta i managed very much as i kept waking as i couldnt breathe very well.

So i am sat here now in my pjs i dont want to get dressed im too comfy Donny is still upstairs i think i desturbed him lots last night so im leaving him there for a bit im going to try get my dragon finished for an exchange im in on the old sss board i may have to email Lorna later and tell her its going to be later but as of yet i havent recieved mine either ant the post out date has come and gone so i dont know whats going on there i really dont.

Well off now to take some more paracetomol and try get the washing out but saying that the fog hasnt really cleared yet but im hoping the sun will shine through soon.

Halloween shopping

First for all i would like to say thankyou to Karyn for this beautiful card and chart that arrived in the post this morning it was a total supprise and i love it very much so thankyou so much Karyn.
Today through my stuffed up noce and chest i went up to Gorseinon to pick up frozen mice for Psycho so while we wehre there i popped into poundstretcher and they were selling halloween masks 3 for 2 which is great and they were a lot cheaper than tescos so i bought three here are my lot modeling them lolIt wasnt long after we got back that Jake was home from school and then my friend Debbies boy called over with something for Leon he wasnt at school today as he has a chest infection and the poor thing looked awful.Ipicked Leon upo at 5pm from school after his school rugby match and he was buzzing as they had won by a landslide.The boys are at sea cadets noe Leons finishing just after8pm and Jake around 10pm so i will settle down for the night when they are both home untill then i have the ironing to finish from last night even though i really dont feel up to it.

Monday blues

Ive had a busy day today we had the lady from the council out to discuss the improvments they shall be making to our house in the very near future but looks like we shall be waiting a little longer than most when it comes to our kitchen refit. The gas meter is now going to be moved outside and one of our windows is to be taken out and replaced with a smaller one so that it will no longer be lower the the work tops so its added a good few weeks onto the finishing date so it looks like i will be waiting a little while longer for any time of flooring in my kitchen but i guess good things come to those who wait. The are also going to be looking at why my bathroom keeps being so damp before they fit my new bathroom suite and shower i for one will be so glad as i am sick of having to clean up all the dampness they said having a radiator in there would help but it hasnt and neither does keeping the two windows open 24 hours a day as the bathroom is downstairs this isnt such a great idea either but it has to be done i guess. Hopefully when its all sorted it wont be so bad for my chest.
I have also been down to b&q his afternoon to price up a few bits and pieces and had my exsister in law over for a bit she wanted some advice on guinea pigs and brought over her sons ds for us to have a look at as its having some problems since we were able to fix Leons after i left it in my bag and then stood on it just a few weeks after he had had it i completely smashed the screen it was uplayable but its all fixed now thankfully.Ive done most of my ironing tonight but ive just been constanlty disturbed whilst trying to do so so ive given up for tonight.
I had two phonecalls this eveniong one before Leon even came in to defend himself from the boy whom he was fighting with in schools last weeks mum i thought the whole sitituation was over with as i was hoping it was all out of thier system but looks like its not i dont know what happened as i was not there but apparantly she has seen the fight on one of the phones that had been tapinng it and turns out they wre bith to blame but wanted to ask me to ask Leon if they could keep away from each other fair enough i spoke to him and he said he would well she decided to phone me back to check i did i really dont know what else i can do un;ess i go to school and hold Leons hand i know when they played rugby together for over 4 years they never really got on but i was hoping as they are in different classes they would keep apart ontop of everything else thats going on at the moment i could do without it you know.
Well im feeling tired i have a bit of a sore throat and i can feel i have a cold coming on im hoping it doesnt get too bad a si havent had my flu jab yet i hate needles so i avoid it as long as i can lol so im sitting here with a malteasers hot chocolate and just having a quick catch up.I did have some good news today though i won joint 2nd place over on Joans blackwork contest which i was really pleaseed about so thankyou to all those who voted for me!!

Smells like christmas

well thats what my house smelled like yesterday afternoon anyway let me explain Leon had cookery yesterday he had to make cheese and tomato puffs using ready made short puff pastry you know the ones you buy frozen.Well he brought home one roll so rather than throw it away i decided to make some mince pies as Donny loves them i thought it mayhelp cheer him up a little.

Yestreday was a quiter day at mine we stayed in as they were supposed to be replacing my living room window but we had a call just after 7.30am with the lamest excuse you could ever get for not being able to do it.The sun was shining brightly so i wanted Donny to stay in to give his eyes s break. We did got out at 3pm we went down to pets at home and meet Jake there and then went back to the school by 4pm to pick up Leon from rugby training and he was filthy!!! i guess the fields still havent recovered yet from all the heavy rain weve been having. I then made the mince pies and we left here about 6.15 to get Leon to kick boxing cadets was cancelled last night so we left the car outside the kick boxing and me Donny and Jake walked the short distance over to asda to have a little look while we were waiting for Leon and youll never guess what we saw when we were heading back to the car!!!!! someone had thier christmas tree up and all lite in the window on the way back!!! i could hardlyy bilieve it i mean its september i could never ever do mine so early im sorrry but they were really get on my nerves i decorate for halloween anyway so iwouldnt dare do it so soon i mean Donny complains when i put ours up the end of november LOL we havent realy had out lights on these past two christmases anyway with his eyes the way theve been i dont want them to hurt them and ive juist remebered i have to buy new ones for the tree this year too. We got some chips from the chippy on the way home which was nice i didnt have to cook yeay!!!!

Today the boys have been to a wedding with the cadets we left them go on the bus on thier own i could of taken them but i think they need a bit of independance sometimes and its so warm and sunny so i stayed home with Donny his meds are down to every two hours from every hour today so its giving us both a bit of a breather and given me more time to do stuff and i have cleaned and changed all the bedding today so im hoping to get a bit of stitching done now maybe before it gets dark we have lans to settle down and watch a dvd and make a curry but before that i have to venture into the attic oh boy is that going to be fun as i hate spiders and dark spaces and we have no flooring up there hmmm im not looking foward to it one little bit i have visions of my feet dangling through the celling lol oh well wish me luck!!!

A better day today

Today was a much better day than yesterday i left Donny to rest this morning while i had a bath and a little me time before the hourly meds started, Then we had a phone call from my dad he had taken his car to the garage and when he had got home he had realised he had left his keys at the garage so i had to go drive down to let him onto his own house as i have a spare key i had to giggle its very unusual for him to take out his mobile too it was a good job he did!!! LOL he was just too tired to walk back to the garage as his chest is very bad and he tires so easily saying that its not the first time hes locked himself out oohhh no hes beem knocking my door after midnight after a night out and hes had to have a taxi down to me to get into his own house LOL Anyway after we had been down there we went to morrisons to get a few things very slowly as donny gets so dizzy on these meds we had to keep stopping but he hates being stuck in so i took him and we took our time, We went to take Leon his kit for football trials and brought jake home and i picked up the mail,

And there was a lovely gift waiing for me from Tonya of SSS some beautiful halloween stickrs and some krennock i needed to try finish my santas dragon and a gift voucher for 123 stitch thankyou so so much Tonya it was a real suprise and really helped lift my spirits Tonya also sent me a lovely card from 123 greatings so show me she was thinking of me at this difficault time which was also very lovely thankyou again.

Also today i recieved this beautiful fabric from trish on the smo board thankyou so much i love it and i promise i havent forgotten the aida will be in the post to you very soon thankyou again.
I also recieved my halloween exchange from the smo board and i have been really spoult my partner wanted to make up for the fact that the last two years i didnt get my exchange untill december and boy has she spoilt me!!! mine will hopefully be in tthe mail to her by the weekend at the latest i cant get any stitching done at night now as the light is hard on Donnys eyes so i just leave it off thankyou again so so much!!! The wonderful gifts ive recieved today all remind me how lucky i am to have such great friends

Hospital update

Well i went to pick up Donny from my dates just after 4pm with the kids in tow turns out the 2 eye conditions he has are back with a vengance in one eye only 6 weeks after the medication was stopped i really dont know whats going to happen next even the consultants at the hospital where at a loss ti why its returned so fast and its veryu worrying. He is back on hourly meds with other drops and creams inbetween for the next three days then to be reduced to two houirly for the following 3 days then 6 tiimes and day for the next week and we are back at our local hospital thankfully for the next appointmant in october he is back on the original meds he was on for over 18 months which you are only allowed to take for a maximum of 3 months before it causes kidney and liver damage/faliour so i realy dont know what to expect next we just have to take every day as it comes and just realy hope foor the best im just hoping that he will get through this set back ok as it is a whole lot to take in but i am here for him every step of the way. He is resting at the moment after going through so much at the hospital earlier but even though he cannot see yet again through the effected eye he still has a little vision in the other which is a blessing.

On a lighter note i recieved a letter from the kitchen designers earleir they are calling on monday to discuse the the next steps getting closer to finally having a new kitchen ii cant wait to get new flooring i can tell you!!! and they are finally coming to replace my living room window on friday so i will finally be able to open it after a very long 3 months!!!

Yesterday afternoon i spent baking with Leon we made some banana and chocolate chip muffins some chocolate chip muffins and some chocolate fairy cakes covered in chocolate and decorations it was realy nice to spend some time with Leon as i hardly see him these days now he is in cadets and has joined the school rugby team he has also started kick boxing twice a week and has football trials for the school tomorrow afternoon id love to get some of his energy!!!! Ah well im going now as i have to go pick Leon up soon and then Jake later and im trying to watch Chelsea playing on the telly!!!

I dont know what to do next

Im sat here and im a mess my hubby got up this morning and his condition is back in a bad way we went up to the doctors like we were supposed to if this happened and he went to make the necessary appointment in llanelli hospital and they refused to see him we nor the doctor could believe this as he has been a regular patient for the past 22 months eventually the dr managed to make him an appointment for another hospital which is over an hours drive away at 2pm which means i couldnt even go with him as the boys finish school at 2.55opm hes just left and im a mess i dont know what to do with myself or how to behave at all im hoping someone signs into msn soon but then again i may just clean as soon as the kids come home im out of here im going to go meet him back at my dads as soon as he is discharged but as theyve only just left i really dont know when ill hear or what will happen im not good at waiting and i really dont want any bad news things are supposed to get better not worse its just not fair

Monday again already!!!

I am sat here trying to get updated quickly before the kids walk in through the door and i have the computer taken from me lol. I havent been online much all weekend on saturday i had my dad and his wife over for a few hours and jake had his friend over all day and then i watched the footie well half of it as i was invited to Debbies house as her hubby was away so we had a girly night in with one of her other friends too. It was great some girly chat and a few bottles of wine i came home around 1.30am and then sat up for a few hours with Donny before i eventually crawled into bed its lucky i dont do this every weekend i dont know if id survive!!!!

On sunday i had a quieter day Leon decided her wanted to go to his friends for a few hours his friend has moved now and is living up by the school so even though Leon has never walked there on his own before i cant really say he cant go as he walks to school and back so i had to let him mind you he did phone me as soon as he got there so i knew he was there safe. As the kids are getting older i guess i have to start etting them do more and i have to do less for them or they will never learn to be independant will they??!!! Well as Sam Leons friend goes to kick boxing on a sunday afternoon Leon has decided he wants to go now to how he is going to manage this around cadets playing for the school rugby team and he has tryouts for the school football team on weds i just dont know he is one busy little boy!!! but id rather see him doing things as Jake just doesnt seem intrested in anything at all.

I spent sunday sfternoon working on my smo halloween exchange and its almost done!!! yeay should be finished today then i just have a fantasy exchange to do then i can do something for me at long last Donny asked me yesterday so it that one for you or are you giving that away too? i had to laugh.

Oh well time to get off and do something else i guess.

Spooky suprise!!!!!

I went out shopping this morning after i had been up ro the school to give Leon his homework at break time as he couldnt take it with him becasue the pc decided to have a funny five minutes this morning after going to morrisons and then to tescos i had a wonderful suprise laying in my hall way waiting for me

Back in july i asked on my wish list at the sanman originals board asking for anything halloweeny as there realy isnt much i can get in my small town and believe me ive looked around the last few weeks Karen said that she would send me a few things from Canada but i never realy expected so much lovely goodies Karen thankyou so so much i love everything i cant wait to wear the earings and the socks THANKYOU!!!!!!!!!!!

Another spooky stitch!!!

My second halloween exchange from my board has also reached the usa so i can proudly show her off to the world:-) Joan is very happy with her which is always fantastic to hear :-)

I havent done much today realy Kev called over this morning to borrow the kids tent and Leons sleeping bag as he is going away for a stag weekend camping in Devon got to say with the weather coming in rather him than me lol he asked me when we were chatting on msn last night and i asked the kids and they were happy so he came over to collect them. As Kev is away i am going over to Deb for a few hours on saturday night theres going to be a few of us so that should be fun. We went down to tescos this afternoon and then pets at home before the kids came home and we got the mice a wooden tunnel with chunks cut out of it to give them some thing to climb in and chew patches loves it she just cant keep off it lol.

The last few days have been difficult for Leon someone told him on msn that the big bang experiments that are happening tomorrow are going to result in the end of the world so i have had to try and reasure a a very frightened little boy that if it was that dangerous surely they wouldnt be allowed to do it and if it does go that wrong we wouldnt be able to have time to worry about it anyway i just dont understand why someone would frighten him like that this boy is someone that used to be in school with Jake and lives just around the corner from us i just advised Leon it may be best not to talk to him again i am waiting for him to be "ill" in the morning but i am realy hoping he can try not to worry about it we have been joking with him all week that ah dont worry about that its the end of the world weds if its something due the end of the week lol so fingers crossed he wont worry too much more.
