Oh I so hope that will be as happy and as lucky as me to have such a wee charmer come wriggling into your life and your baby girl because let's face it it doesn't matter what age she is she will always be your baby girl. Is this you going to become a granny for the first time like me as I can thoroughly recommend it for happiness that those 10 tiny fingers and 10 tiny toes bring to your heart so much so that it could burst. I know she's not I'll but I do hope that your baby girl will take it easy and not do a Kirsten on you, namely working on a high pressure ward until the Sunday and then get whipped in on the Thursday as she has preeclampsia which by the time they did an emergency caesarean on her it had developed into eclampsia. Awh big congratulations flower to you both xxGlenharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03653116596107902711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-77750395481298188632015-12-12T23:19:59.638+00:002015-12-12T23:19:59.638+00:00Hi all, thanks for the comments about my weight lo...Hi all, thanks for the comments about my weight loss, GP told me it would help with bad joints, but as of yet no better, so I'd better keep going.<br />Had a nice afternoon making cards while OH was practicing the carols for tomorrows church carol service, hope it doesn't pour down with rain like last year.<br />Karen congratulations on the event to come, lovely news, hope all goes well.<br />Goodnight ladies.

I was so looking forward to playing this afternoon! When I opened the box it contained 2 boxes of Sakura Gel Pens!! The Delivery Note says Pillow Box Die! Someone has made a Boo Boo !! I've contacted them - do not intend to pay to return these pens. Wouldn't you just know it! <br />BUT - if that's all I have to complain about - I'm very well-off!!

Bought a gift for my M in L & treated myself to an Xcut die= Georgian Door as it has the cutest mini Scottiedog with it. The die set was £9.99 and I had a voucher for £10 so I think I was meant to buy it. Stayed for a coffee & mince pie as I'd taken a colleague with me. We called at hubby's golf club on the way home to collect a jumper I had ordered for him for Christmas. It's in the car, I'll bring it in tomorrow when he goes off to work.<br /><br />We're have a very lazy meal tonight-a ready meal with garlic bread! I've got tea sorted for tomorrow-will use the slow cooker so it doesn't matter when hubby gets home. I think I'll make mince pies tomorrow, I can take some into work on Monday to save me eating them all .<br /><br />Michele PharmacyMichelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04613583130557825327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-7920483202735741352015-12-12T16:32:09.875+00:002015-12-12T16:32:09.875+00:00Karen, congratulations to you all on the great new...Karen, congratulations to you all on the great news.

We had heavy rain both last night and this morning so the river levels are rising again, but the lantern Festval went ahead last night and the Food Festival is also on so spirits are high at the moment in town. <br />May I pleasee say thank you to everyone who have made donations to the Flood appeal it really is going to be needed, some people did not have insurance as after the last floods in 2009 it was out of their reach financially. Some who do have it have excesses of £5,000 or more.<br />Todays crafts are all so lovely of course it goes without saying I love Michele's dogs they are cute. Myra's snowperson was very clever and last but by no means least Karen you cake is fantastic.<br />So busy here I would like to know just who is pinching my share of time at the moment! But I'm never too busy to stop and think of our absent friends at the moment sending them special hugs and love.<br />Take care everyone<br />Margaret xxxMargaret corgi ownerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07044940577122022288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-55268383679029798152015-12-12T16:02:34.448+00:002015-12-12T16:02:34.448+00:00BIG Congratulations, great news, hope everything g...BIG Congratulations, great news, hope everything goes well and she enjoys her pregnancy.<br />We waited 10 years for our Thomas then 26months later we had Robert.<br />As Brenda says Grandchildren are a Special Gift xxxPatriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08760759649434363723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-34371846755277716252015-12-12T15:56:24.593+00:002015-12-12T15:56:24.593+00:00NORAH:- that was a fantastic story ... loved it.

He had gone down the road and lifted everybody's milk. If have heard a story about any of your relatives having milk go missing .... I guess it might have been John!!!
