1.  I'm happy because my hubby's Sergeant Major let him have tomorrow off to attend the annual "Thanksgiving in Plymouth" celebration with me and Izzy.

2.  I'm happy because the 2 cheesecakes I sent to work with hubby were hits!  So much so, the guys have asked if I could make some more in the near future.  Looks like I'll be asking for some more Hershey's Cocoa powder from my parents.  ;) They also said Mark was lucky because none of their wives would have did anything like that.  :D

Getting prints of our visits to Salzburg, Mondsee, Budapest and others and sending them out with Christmas cards.  They turned out lovely, the clear skies and bright sunshine were such a treat after winter UK weather.

Making plans to make a gingerbread house just like my bil and sil's thatched roof cottage in Bristol.

Finding strength in friendships and appreciating them during some difficult times.  My son is sick with a chest infection, I am currently in the middle of a miscarriage, I found out yesterday my father was diagnosed with cancer.

aww grace so sorry!!


I'm going ice skating tonight ;D


phil seems more relaxed about work today. He's had a nagging problem that he finally resolved.
But never fear, gentlemen; castration was really not the point of feminism, and we women are too busy eviscerating one another to take you on.

Aw Grace...so sorry you're going through some difficult times.  I'm glad you've got some friends you can count on to help you through...

I'm also grateful for good friends who give me good advice and help me not to panic...

...and Sainsbury's whole grain 'Cranberry Wheat Squares'.  Like tiny little shredded wheats w/cranberry filling.  Delicious!!! :)
When I am grown-up I will understand how BEAUTIFUL it feels to administrate my life effectively.

Until then I will continue to TORCH all correspondence that bores me and to dance NAKED over the remnants of its still glowing embers.

1.  Cooking my first Thanksgiving dinner tonight to feed people other than just DH!  Looks like it will be a total of 7 - scary!  But fun.

2.  Worked out something with a dear friend - communication is the key!
