Thanks for the birthday wishes girlies,
I have had a right lovely day
I was spoiled with pressies and money for myself and taken out to lunch at a diner which is renowned (sp)? near to where we live. I didn't count any points today, just as well really as I ordered honey coated fried chicken which came in three HUGE pieces, chips, which were big HUGE thick ones and a salad and coleslaw. Add to this some of thier famous cream cheese bread that they put on the table for you to snack on while you wait for your order and I think if I even tried to add up the points I would have used the entire weeks worth
Needless to say, we all bought home boxes of food home as we couldn't eat most of it there, so we'll be noshing on it later while we veg in front of the telly and watch a film.
Dave ordered flounder and got two whacking great pieces with chips and such, Hannah ordered spaghetti and meatballs and I swear the meatballs must have been a quater pound of meat each and J ordered a hamburger which when he put the top bun on, he couldn't get his chops round so started nibbling all around the edge and then his fillings in the burger would start to slide out the opposite time. Quite amusing for us all to watch.
I didn't get any pms for that university thingy either, I notice now that it's been taken off of the threads though. I can imagine why people did get upset about it, not the fact that they were asked to have their excerpts taken down but the fact that they were told to respond to someone completely different if they didn't want to join in with it. I've not noticed any more posts from that Project person so maybe others responded in not so kind to her requests?
It is absolutely freezing here again today, we had a bit of a tease yesterday with 50 degree weather but today it is only 22 degrees and windy and colder tomorrow with a top temp of 10....
I don't drive a huge car over here, we had a van when we first moved over here and it was a Godsend with all the kids friends who I seemed to always take places, plus when I used to have the Brit girlies over and we'd go out, now I drive a sonata and I love it, it's zippy and good on gas and goes well round all the little roads out here in the boonies. Hubby has a truck and it's big, I have to drag myself up into it and drop out of it which he always gets a good chuckle out of at my benifit, it fits him quite nicely being six two! I don't really like driving it either and only do when it's absolutely neccessary as I'm convinced I'll bang into something and put a scratch or dent onto it and then he won't be a happy bunny and I'd hear about it forever....
Right, well I must go and just load the dishwasher cos the kitchen being untidy is driving me nuts and of course it doesn't do that to anyone else, not even on my birthday!
I'm back on track tomorrow..........with a vengence. Here's to a great week for everyone
Ooooh a Corsa, SW.,what colour is it? I bought my Corsa LS TD 10 years ago.
.well actually I didn't buy it, I got the choice of car that was a gift. 
Lucky, lucky me!! It is a tourquoise colour and diesel so I get about 500 to 600 miles to a full tank...brill!! 
gosh, those cars sure are economical are'nt they 
beats my 10 to the gallon Cadillac 
its cute too SW when i go back i'll have to get used to feeling like a sardine crammed into MIL's mini metro 
which is about the size of one of the bonnets/hoods of one of my cars over here 
for me,spent it alone not that i bother about it anyway 
I loved the water polo! Amy just kept knocking those balls in the net, she was so tall and poor Freddie was the net-keeper. 
I would be over the moon if I lost 4, 5, or 6 lbs in one week. At the moment I would be thrilled to lose 1 or 2lb, but I won't go down that path just now!!
