Going to a Delirious concert in Leeds tomorrow!

Also, rolling on the floor laughing hysterically because.....we gave away our cot a few weeks ago since our son was now sleeping in a bed and we felt our family was complete.

Well, you guessed it- I'm pregnant again! Due in June sometime....

Folgers Chocolate Silk Coffee. In a care package sent from mom. My new fave coffee.........YUM!!!! I've never had it before, it kinda tastes like coffee with chocolate fudge in it.

Thanks....even more "humorous" is the fact that I finally let DH convince me it would be okay to drive across Europe the first two weeks of November.  I had always resisted because of the children.  Well, better get my "sick bags" ready, and please let the children sleep a lot in the car!

My wonderful mother sent all the pictures she and my brother took while here for the wedding.  I spent all afternoon thanking God for her and some half decent wedding pictures.  I posted a few in the photo gallery.

Ok, finally got some better sleep...the UP's...

- Having a really nice holiday (I wrote a lot more on my Andalucia thread in Travel/Transport).
- Two more advanced role vacancies opening up within my dept at work.
- Fun drinks out with several work mates yesterday evening.  A guy young enough to be my son wanting to buy me a drink!  Life is just too weird (but flattering) sometimes.  Of course, I accepted -- you don't argue with free food or booze. ;)
- Then coming home to my lovely husband who had my supper on the table (homemade pizza).  (He had his work p*ss-up on Wednesday evening.)
- Can't get over the euphoria of buying clothes in smaller sizes. Yesterday, I bought a sparkly black top + a party dress (Christmas, New Years).

Life is good right now.  :)

Waking up to a beautiful sunny day!

And..  further to my football saga, having a coach/manager reach out to my son in a positive way.  There is definitely hope that things will turn out well for DS!
