I've just got up this morning and read my post above, and cannot remember what 'Sandra' said or did that made me go 'awwww'!   :-[

Hee hee!!! :)

1.  My fiance has left me all alone (he's at an overnight camping stag party) so I am happily reading a pile of books and eating chocolate.

2.  I've still got to practice my music a bit more and work out a set list for our gig in the park on Sunday.

3.  I've got 2 episodes of CSI (Las Vegas) downloaded to watch that I fell asleep on earlier in the week.

4.  It's cool and raining (that's ok) and I am marvelling over the fact that it is most likely inhumanly hot and humid back in Philadelphia.

5.  I'm thinking about what I'll make for dinner tomorrow night for when my fiance gets home --chana dal maybe?

1) Making a blackberry pie today (I didn't get it made yesterday). ;D
2) I have a mountain of ironing to be done. :(
3) Going into Leeds tonight for dinner out - a work friend's birthday celebration. :D
4) If time permits (I don't rush anything on my days off!), may do a bit of shopping in town this afternoon - need to get my friend's b'day pressie in any case. :)
5) The forecast for the weekend (right now) doesn't look too bad - maybe we'll get a walk in!  I've not been out since our rainy 80-mile trek last month! :P

Scratch those two for me!  I've arranged to take my friend out next week instead.  As the day progressed, I really didn't want to go into town on my day off & roofing contractors (as it happens) are coming 'round later.  So, as a replacement...

3) Staying home, enjoying the sun being out - cocktails, anyone? :D
4) Tucking into leftover Mexican food with DH tonight & watching Como Agua Para Chocolate on DVD...as well as enjoying Como Zarzamoras Para Torta! ;)

I kept wanting to do my Friday Five yesterday!  Thought it was Friday all day yesterday - lol!!!

1)  Beautiful sunshine & clean laundry on the clothesline! 8)
2)  Going into Leeds today for errands & to meet hubby for lunch. ;D
3)  Planning to join a gym while I'm in town. :P
4)  Steve has promised to repair our front garden gate this weekend.  (We've been waiting for a run of good weather, and well - as we all know, it's taken its sweet time.) :)
5)  The lavender is well in bloom & the bees are busy all over it!  (I really love that.) :D
