I'm going shopping in my new car  ;D ;D ;D
Granted the 'shopping' is a food shop and to buy a present for Rebecca to take to a party, but I might be able to squeeze in a wee pub lunch before heading home  ;) ;D
then back to clean out the chooks before the kids get back from school  ::)

Whatever you're doing - I hope you all have a good day  :-*

Stripping, shopping and walking then eating and drinking, and relaxing buy the fire with the dogs and my OH!!!!
Must add the beds have been stripped not me and we ate out in Asda, a yummy meal that was soooooooo good value, less than £5 for a meal, pud and as many hot drinks as you want, and it was lovely
Due to our finances we also emptied the penny pot and put it in Asdas penny sorter and got over £63 so we bought the shopping and then went to get my OH new work wear and took that to the till, I asked my OH how much in order to get the money out, he replied " I thought it was !!!" and the cashier looked at the manager and sold it us for that, all of £5 cheaper than the lable so carn't be bad!!!!!!!!! Also sent off some money for my brand new venture!! fingers crossed and sooon will let everyone in on it as some may be interested!!!!

And I am soooo glad half term is over - back to school on MOnday (the kids not me), only the weekend to get through now....

But have cooked two curries and two shepherd's pies today, to go into freezer, for lambing/kidding time when I have no time to cook anything longer than half an hour /(and usually don't get to eat it until cold, because lots of my ewes lamb at dinner time...), also dealing wiht an egg mountain, one lot of ice cream in the freezer, another tomorrow, several cakes in the freezer too (done during the last few days not today though)....

I went to work this morning then came home mucked out the ponies, ducks and chickens, hoovered the house so it looks kind of tidy and then sat down with a large glass of wine as my OH made us a curry, I love Friday nights when he does the cooking.  ;D
