Mine is finally getting a knitted teddy bear to look reasonable. I am hopeless at faces on any toy I knit. These little teddies looked so easy, but the first two I made are currently starring in their own Horror Movie called "How to terrify a Child."

As reported in 'Today I have been....' I bought what would have been an expensive nappy bag for DD3 in a charity shop for £7 instead of 10x that! Not often I find a bargain, but today was the day. Big grin

Lovely for you, Chrissy. I've had a good haircut and been out to pub lunch and good gossip with a friend.

Just been to visit a neighbour who moved into sheltered housing in the village. Had a good chat and a coffee.

greenmossgiel Wed 16-May-12 17:04:21

Well that's a relief, then, Mamie! smile

In the middle of a horrific week which I can't even begin to talk about had lunch with an old friend who bought me a big bunch of flowers. It made a big difference.

greenmossgiel Wed 16-May-12 18:09:50

Sewsilver, whatever you've had to deal with, I hope it's resolved soon. Life can be an absolute b...h, can't it? flowers

geordiejoy Wed 16-May-12 18:39:23

jeni Wed 16-May-12 19:33:58

I stopped myself from murdering the judge with whom I was sitting! Grrrrrrrrrrrr!

CharlieAnn Wed 16-May-12 19:39:55

Jeni , was the judge Simon Cowell, cos if it was you could have reined in your better instincts and done us all a favour!

jeni Wed 16-May-12 19:46:37

Sorry no!

glassortwo Wed 16-May-12 19:54:47

Dr started me back on my HRT, I can start to feel like me again, instead of the grey shadow I was turning into.
