actually it is for DH, for me it's B12 day - no wonder I haven't been able to stay awake recently! So they celebrate with champagne and I get B12, but actually the B12 will give me a far more lasting high than the champagne would, and I won't be desperate for a nap afterwards either!

I'm just about preparing nourishing meals for myself and the kids, DH when he's home. I'm just about keeping up with laundry. Christmas would be fine except I think I'm doing fine then I have a busy couple of weeks, and there we are a fortnight closer to Christmas and things aren't as good as they were 14days ago. I'm not even sure I can spare the time next Monday to sneak out and meet my mother for a few hours to celebrate my birthday, though you can bet I wanna try!

anyway, it's nearly 10pm and I'm going to bed! I got sidetracked for an hour last night looking at (drooling over) cellos after buying some basic theory books for DD - she's had to quit her recorder classes to take extra maths, so rather than volunteer help with the maths I agreed to help with the recorder! I eventually went to bed at 12:30am. I mean I'd already finished my last email to the lawyers at 11:30pm... really should gone to bed then. GOING RIGHT NOW - before I get sidetracked again into spending too long on here.

Zillah - use wet tissues to clean the sink while you're sitting on the toilet! My sinks would probably never get cleaned if I didn't do it that way!

Kerri.
