1) Going to a wedding tommorow and have picked out a BEAUTIFUL dress to wear
2) A girl that lives in our block of flats is going to the same wedding so we're sharing a cab... shes a bit strange but it gives me someone to talk to if DH wanders off.
3) Going to look for a new pair of shoes on my lunch to wear to said wedding
4) Getting a indian takeaway tonight for dinner.
5) Drinking dunkin donuts coffee out of my dunkin donuts mug at my desk.. life is good.. brought back both from America.

Struggling to think of 5 things... ???

1) The weather here has been pretty much rubbish all week - boo. :-\\\\
2) My lovely builder is here again today! [smiley=2thumbsup.gif]
3) I also have some other workmen outside putting up really TALL scaffolding on the side of our house - so the builder can finish pointing the very tip-top of the building. ;D
4) I will probably make spag bol tonight, or maybe lasagna. [smiley=chef.gif]
5) We are going to start tearing our master bedroom apart this weekend. :P

1. Had a good job interview today.
2. Work catered lunch in today. :D
3. DD is going on a four day trip with the grandparents starting tomorrow. I will enjoy the time with DH but we are sad because she has never been away from us for more than 24 hours in her whole seven years. Just another sign she is growing up.   :\\\'(
4. Going to a movie that does not involve cartoon characters this weekend but still not sure of what to see. ???
5. Have a massive headache.

1.  Had a yummy sweet potato curry cooked by my hubby tonight.  He has been cooking every night because my right hand is in a splint (may have a broken writst bone).  He also is doing all of the washing up!  [smiley=chef.gif] [smiley=smitten.gif]

2.  I am working tomorrow and then three more long days and then we are on holiday!  [smiley=bootyshake.gif] [smiley=2thumbsup.gif]

3.  Got 4 interesting psychology self-help-ish books out at the library today.  [smiley=book.gif]

4.  There is a frog living in our basement.  He changed his colour from green to the color of the basement floor--a chalky white-ish grey.   :)

5.  If it rains Sunday I am going to work on making my resume into a CV for future purposes.  [smiley=lipsrsealed2.gif]

Naaaah.  That was last night... [smiley=blush.gif]  We're getting ready to re-do the master bedroom, so we have to tear the built in cupboards out (nasty things!  plus there is mold growing on the wall behind one, which we can't address until the cupboard is outta there) and rip the wallpaper/woodchip (or whatever it is layered on there & covered with paint-ugh) off the walls.  Once we have the room stripped down, then the builder can go to work replastering, etc - but if we do some of this ourselves, it will save us some ££££.
