    Morning all....

    Slept well last night, didn't want to get out of bed this morning. Hopefully tomorrow I can have a bit of a lie in.
    Having my tattoo laser at 10 tomorrow then my nails at 11.30. OH off to see his LO 11 til 1 then hopefully we will get the Xmas tree up!

    Sunday we are off to the famous toy shop to finish of the boys Xmas presents then we are done! I've no idea what to get my LO. It's hard to explain to an 8 yr old that quality is better than qty.....

    I'm sure he will appreciate whatever he has

    Morning ladies slept better last night but still didn't want to get up

    I'm sure your LO will love what ever he gets from you Emma

    Just tidied up whilst LO and OH have their breakfasts. Going to sort the washing in a sec.

    Need to go to the shop to get a few bits today. Didn't know whether to make something for my dad and sisters for their tea and take it round as mum not making anything at the min. Think their a bit bored of beans on toast.

    We are out for tea tonight with OH cousin and wife (best man and bridesmaid) as their off to Australia for a month Monday

    Annoyed that I found out through FB though. My mum could have text me at least

    And Emma that your nephew is feeling better soon

    Show home was open and went to see the bigger house to the one we would be looking at and its lovely. The'res a house we can see for the one we would look at on the other side of the city so might take a drive over there the weekend and see it. I looked on R1ght M0v3 when we got home and I think its expensive for what the houses are selling for in the area so really need to look into it. In that area there were only 3 other 3beds going for more than this house and in a neighbouring area only 2. Not sure if its a wise thing to do or not. Other downside is that they wont be completed until June - August next year! Definitely some thinking needs to be done.

    Didn't sleep well at all. Hopefully I pick myself up!

    I've kinda got a weekend off, got a night shift on Sunday night, really though I don't need to as on annual leave but been put down for a shift. At least it's the start of the week.

    Booked a massage for Monday morning as well, my neck and shoulder is doing my head in now, need to get it massaged out, fed up taking painkillers, hopefully that is all it really needs, I know it's tight and full of knots.

    Morning ladies, TGIF! So tired this morning!

    OH has his first weekend off since October this weekend so we are going to spend some time together, watch films and have a lazy day tomorrow since he is in work tonight then go to the Manchester Christmas markets Sunday I think, although he is taking me christmas shopping (for my presents) in Manchester next weekend so might do it all at once!

    Going to do a bit of work tomorrow morning. My uncle, auntie and cousin are coming down from Nottingham tomorrow so my mum and I are going out for lunch with them then we're going to visit my grandma in her care home. Sunday OH is playing football so I'm going to pop out and do a bit of Christmas shopping whilst he's out, then we'll probably just have a lazy day for the rest of the day and put the Christmas tree up! Want to sit down with OH at some point and finalise our invitations too.

    Lindsay, we checked the local area so houses just around the corner of the main road and they were considerably less so schools wouldn't make a difference. Think we're going to look at other properties other than new builds. Bonus is we won't have to wait a few months.

    I can't stop yawning today! hopefully I can get a decent sleep tomorrow before cubs christmas party

    Me neither - CBA that is, but found a job that I want to apply for, so as the office is quite today going to make a start on that shortly. Complete side-step - doing what I do now, but in HR which is where I want to be.

    Think we're going to do wine and fajhitas tonight, I am meeting a friend for lunch tomorrow and then we may go see Mockingjay tomorrow at the cinema. Any good?

    We had fajitas on Wednesday, done them in the slow cooker but used a jar with the seasoning bit at the top. Was a little runny so I think if I had used the powder like I normally do it would have been OK as the juices from the chicken and veggies would have made it OK.

    If the date was in cell A1 then the formula would be

    =IF(TODAY()=(A1-60),1,"")

    Change the 1 for whatever you want the flag to be. Remember if its text it needs "" around it

He asked if I wanted one but he obviously made them all for himself so said no and made myself a pate sarnie, he said he did not know where I was, I said I was only in town (2mins from our house) and that if he had phoned me he would know
