Plus he now needs an operation on his bottom eyelid. The doctor says the lump is benign but will have a biopsy done just in case. So we're now waiting on a date for that as well. Well Bet lives in Gt Oakley which is nearer Harwich.

Lovely frugal Fr... Hello Sandra Sandra and everyone,<br />Lovely frugal Friday ideas. Michele your card is great, it would have been such a waste to put that tissue box in the recycling, you really are 'RECYCLING ' in every sense of the word. Hope Dad was OK this morning, I understand what you mean about feet. I used to cut MIL's toe nails, then my dad asked would I cut his. Not a job I enjoyed but someone has to do it. <br /><br />Karen gorgeous pictures of Oscar, he looks such a happy little man especially with Lyon. It's easy to see how he lights up your life...... A true blessing xx<br /><br />Lynda, those pads look a great buy. Must check next time I'm in Poundland.<br /><br />I have a box of 'bits' collected from packaging also some envelopes. The inside on some is a solid colour, had one a few days ago the inside was a gorgeous lime (acid) green, had to save that. I also save the plastic containers you get me some washing powders they are great for storage. I have a couple in a drawer in the bedroom also one for my pill boxes, they stand up nicely and I can see at a glance the ones I need. In my craft room I have a couple of Johnson's cotton bud containers which I have painted and store Pens/pencils and paint brushes and another. <br /><br />Val, pleased that you are home safe and sound, it's obvious that Gracie had missed you. And the cats were just being cat - ignoring you as a punishment for leaving them ha ha, <br /><br />Sandra and Paul hope the journey to Colchester was OK and Mum is feeling fine. The journey home will probably be busy, Friday traffic and all that. Take care.xx<br /><br />Sending Special ((((((HUGS)))))) for Janet. I hope and pray you will feel better soon xx<br /><br />I hope you are having a good day ladies, Love Brenda xxxBrenda https://www.blogger.com/profile/14121800821999942200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-67056076163675623682016-09-30T11:22:51.615+01:002016-09-30T11:22:51.615+01:00Hi Sandra & all in cafe,

What...Morning Sandra and all this Frugal Friday :-)<br />What a wonderful morning coming in and see baby Oscar, he is adorable and hope too meet him if and when I come to you next time Karen, many hugs to you all in the meantime.<br />Great frugal ideas Michele, so many pretty tissue boxes around and you cheese boxes are so lovely, still haven't made one but have a tube from Twigglet's I'm using for my long pasta and have thought about decorate that one day(20 years and counting tihi) Not handmade Birthdays and Christmas cards always get cut up in my house for using as toppers, have a bag full. Even the embellishments are quite good to use as well. Since buying the little daubers for colouring in I'm using a egg carton to keep them in.<br />Love the papers Lynda, what a wonderful find. I must go and see in MK if they got any here or you will be very busy lady to buy some in for us all hihi. Hope you feeling better and can have a nice day.<br />Lilian- hope you have a nice day. How long are the visitors staying ?<br />I had the same problem Sonia with acetate so maybe we used one that was too thick, it would be good otherwise to have some stencils sometimes for things.<br />Welcome home Val, hope your travel was good and no delays. Please say Hi to Wendy from me, I went a bit dumb struck meeting a celebrity but she might remember a crazy redhead saying Hi when she spoke to Littlelamb :-) and if Littlelamb looking in ,good luck at the fair.<br />Sandra I e-mailed you this morning, forget the first one :-) still trying to sort it out. OH will have to help me.<br />Hope the journey to Colchester goes without too much interruptions. Have a lovely day with your mum. I will be down there myself in a few weeks. perhaps we can have coffee together there some day if you and Paul are there.<br />The sun is shining here and it's look like a good day. Had a quick walk around the lake earlier and it was very pretty with the morning dew and cobwebs glittering in the sun. Do not like spiders but there webs are nice when the frost is coming. <br />Many healing hugs to Janet and too anyone else who need some. Missing you Cheryl and Lorraine, hope you are ok ?<br />Have a good day everyone! love and hugs to you all,Maria xxxxMariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05672255244916708700noreply@blogger.com
