Yay Friday!!
1. Barely managed to avoid jetlag from the US and slept straight through last night.
2. Barely got up on time to shower, finish packing, straighten up flat, and get to airport for flight.
3. My aunt, uncle and their relatives arrive Saturday to stay at mine while I am away.
4. Hope to get a haircut this weekend.
5. Did I mention I'm in Paris? :)

1) I feel like I have a hangover today but I only had 2 glasses of wine yesterday at lunchtime...
2) A customer that comes into our office and wee's on the bathroom floor everytime is in today.  >:( but we cant say anything because 'hes the customer'
3) I drank too much diet cherry coke and feel bloated
4) Curry tonight (which wont help with the bloat-age).
5) Meeting up with a former UKY'er for lunch tommorow  :)

1. My little girl turned seven yesterday, she's getting so big.  :\\\'(
2. My seven year old asked last night when she is getting her own cell phone and her own computer in her room.  ::)
3. The seven year old was quite disappointed when we told her it would be several years before either of those things happened.
4. Going to pile up on the couch with popcorn for a movie night with DH & DD.
5. Have family gatherings Saturday & Sunday and both are over an hour away.

1. I had to do the grocery shopping by myself again today. I know it's not usual for your DH to like to go with you, but he does, he just can't now!
2. I'm eating Oreos
3. My in-laws are talking about moving to the Orkneys. ::)
4. DH is on day 3 of no smoking and doing pretty well.
5. I got Cath Kidston reuseable bags at Tesco today!
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. ~ John Lennon

No, this is the thread you just post 5 things you want to tell about your Friday, your week, the weekend, whatever.  ;)

Ah!  Thanks, MrsR.

1.  Am happy my dad is finally out of the hospital (pneumonia and kidney infection).
2.  Took a chance on hanging out loads of washing on the line and then travelling the 40 miles to Greenock across the water and it didn't rain a drop!
3.  Hurray, we get to 'lie in' tomorrow.
4.  Bank holiday Monday, no post.  :(
5.  Hopefully the rain will hold off until Sunday.

Any chance of a transfer or work from home a couple of days a week?
