Unexpected pleasures....

congrats lisa!! im sure everything will work out wonderfully!

my up is that my messy roomate took out the trash this morning. little i know, but its a lot coming from her. 

Finally a good customer service experience here!

Found a pair of lovely brown suede boots at Dune and they didnt have my size.  They found them at another location and I paid an extra £8 and they shipped them directly to my house 2 days later! 

washed sheets + warm sunshine = clean, sunny-smelling bed!

My friend Sally brought me back Reese's Stuff-including cookies and some other bar thing that I've never tried before.

We have a name for my new niece. (Much quicker for this one then the last one and then they changed it anyway 6 months later)
Olivia Daisy, I love it!  (Plus Rich's Nana is called Olive, so it's in honor of her!)

Are you serious - they really changed the baby's name six months later??  What was before and what did they change it to?

Ok mine is getting home on time, going for a run with DH, and then making dinner all before 9pm!

Yup   It was Montgomery (Monty, which I liked, it was cute for him) then they changed it to Jack.

hehehehehehehe....... You shoulda put that under the IA thread. Poundland in Solihull city centre. It's the honey butter flavor, from US for Switzerland. I asked if they always have it, and he said they get it often, but not regular. YUMMY!!

Hubby doing a grocery shop this morning, and said he was cooking dinner tonight. We have not been getting along so well the past week so I don't know if this is his way of making nice or what. Oh wall, at least it's two things I don't have to do today! 

Before I left, a group of friends pitched in and gave me a one year membership to the British Museum. They couldn't *officially* set it up till I had an address, and then the gal who was taking care of it had a crisis, so I had completely forgotten. The welcome pack arrived today! VERY unexpected and pleasurable. 

Had a long talk w/a fellow fae' Falkirk...just happened to bump into him.  He and his wife are on holiday in the western US.  He was very surprised to meet someone who actually knew where Falkirk is!
