WANT NEED AND MUST HAVE!!!

OMG - I need these shoes so much - they are just GORGEOUS!! I am well overdue for a treat anyway-after nursing Drew back to health last week I was exhausted - so much so that I now have the stinking cold and a bark for a cough. I just have to suffer the cold etc as I allergic to paracetamol and cannot take brufen and all cold/flu medication has some trace in them. I have been in bed coughing and spluttering most of this last week. I am going to be alone all weekend in the house - Drew off to Mum and Dad's so I can get a rest - Shaun going to his grandma's and Danny - well don't know about him yet, and My Dearest Hubband is away from Friday afternoon till Sunday - I hate it when he goes away for work... Mind you I might be able to get all my xmas stuff done and dusted. I am buying nothing new for christams cards I have so far only used stuff that I already had. What a satisfying feeling that is, lets hope I can carry it off with just scraps. I have so much craft stuff to do I am terrified not gonna get it done for this christmas!.. having this damned flu this past week has just drained me and i think my mojo has drained away with my get up and go!! Never mind I am going to give it a bloody good go this weekend. I did pull myself out of my pit on monday though as had to be at Drews school for a craft afternoon - Drew is off to High School Next Year so the school she is at just now have been introducing the kids to pupils from her new school - we played games, we made plates of food with crafting clay so the kids could ask what kind of food will they get/not get... such screams of laughter I have not heard for years - it was fab.. drew did something that reduced me to tears.. we were making animals with the left over clay.. I had made a little frog and drew made a little cat.. my silly frog would not stand and drew just picked up a bit of clay and made a little lily pad for the frog to sit on - such a simple thing for other kids but for drew to do this of her own accord was just wonderful - I cried buckets I was so proud of her. She really has come so far from being told at 2 that she would never walk or talk.. She is a gift she really is and I love her so much. I have to take one day at a time with this delightful child as we don't know what the next day will bring. I so love to wake every morning with her huge sleepy grin.

Darling Danny has just walked in from school with the biggest bump on his cheek!! It is huge and angry looking! Him and his mates were mucking about and he came off worst.. I never knew boys were that clumsy!! I am giving him till his dad comes in and if his dad thinks it looks bad then it's YET ANOTHER visit to Hospital.. it's a bloody good job we only live across the road from the hospital. Hopefully all will be ok otherwise a long night ahead in casualty!

Well I better get my butt of this chair and into some sort of action - hungry kids and a hungry husband to sort out.. Pork fillets,cauliflower with cheese sauce and lovely roast potatoes.. mmm mouth watering all ready.. Only 4 of us for dinner tonight as Shug Bug is at a neighbours having dinner.. us mothers have made agreements that we will all take a turn to have all the kids on the estate one night a week to let them all play together and have tea together. My turn tomorrow.. Oh Goody ... lol

Take care All
