What a day .....

I feel sooo poorly today but I havent stopped!! I needed to return one of the younger bridesmaid dresses to Debenhams because I had one too many.  I paid the florist (at long last, seemingly my contact emails have been going into her 'spam' folder and she isnt sure why no one answers the phone ...???) for the wedding flowers, including the amendments :-) Result!

I have thrown some stewing steak, chopped & peeled carrots (about 4), 2 medium onions - diced, chopped some mushrooms, crushed two garlic cloves, 2 pints of water, 5 beef oxo cubes, a cup and a half of red wine and 2 teaspoons of paprika and some salt & pepper into my slow cooker and left it on low to cook my dinner for this evening.  G is off out tonight to the German Markets with his American work colleague to celebrate Thanks Giving! I never really understood Thanks Giving but after talking to a family friend about it, it makes more sense. So .. I am thankful for Gordon, my life in Leeds, our health and for the love and support of our families and friends.  I am also thankful for Beau and Bauer when they are being nice to each other :-)

I have also spent some time trawling the internet for information to help G's brother - M out after I received a very unwanted telephone call this morning and also much more fun - looking for a special gift for my Mum's Sister - AJ for being such a fabulous matron of honour :-) (Got my Mum a little something too for organising my hen do ... a little (kinky) witch on a broomstick charm for her bracelet that I bought her last year.

It is now 13.49 - I missed day 2 of my promised breakfast laptop dates to update my blog but I am catching up now.  I dont want to go into work today because I feel lousey but I am not one to be off sick.

I have about 40 mins to sit with a brew and a cake (oh which are much better icing wise today!!) before I head off for a shower and to don my work gear for the evening ahead. 

Anyway, going to indulge in some rubbish tv and make positive steps to getting myself to work on time.
