Well done Liesa, that is great news!

Aren't nearly all MILs the same? things I will NEVER do to my daughters; insist I spend Easter, Christmas etc. with them every year and play hurt if they make other arrangements, because I won't be hear long and I want to spend time with the grandchildren - that's used for every birthday of the children and beloved son btw. Ditto invite myself along on holidays. Remember that an invite for a weekend is in fact 2 nights only, not at least 4, and Christmas and Easter can be 3 nights, not a week.[:P]

Well Done to Leisa and Sally on your weight loss[clap][clap][clap]

and Paula give the children[grouphug] and i hope they are better soon

Fiona it sounds like your having a great time in sunny florida what i wouldn't give to be sitting in a hot tub right now with a nice alcoholic drink[drinkpepsi]enjoy yourself Fiona and dont go eating anything that we wouldn't[msnwink]

i saw a book in w.h smiths the other day and it was "a mother in laws handbook -20 things you should never say to your daughter in law" sadly its a little bit too late for me i could have done with slipping it onto her coffee table over 10 years ago never mind though it was only 20 things and i think we would need a much more comprehensive guide for my m.i.l[msnsmile2]

i am struggling a little today ,food wise, the children had me demented by 11 am and its only their first day off they where awake a 4.40 am

i have just joked with my husband that i am thinking of hiring the children out to these companies that develop "under extreme pressure training courses" to see if their employees can cope in very challenging situations

Have a better day than me everyone from a very frazzled Mizzy[msnscared]

[Paula D-S]

That's fantastic Leisa you must feel great, Well Done[clap][clap][clap]

I'm having a good day, sat in non moving traffic for 35 mins this lunch time, I've felt pretty rotten since.

Listening to my eldest and my neice singing at the moment, I think it's from Barbie "I'm just like you, you're just like me" sang at the top of their voices and in their best American accents, because she won't read this forum I can honestly say it sounds dreadful and I am at the point were I don't know whether to laugh or cry or scream.

Mizzy it's a long time till they go back isn't it[msncry][msncry]

[LiesaAnna]

wish i still had my dear MIL and FIL they were one in a million both of them!!! Steve their only boy, and they had a daughter 8 years older then him, they adored him and me and our children!!! they treated me as they treated him, i loved them very much and miss them greatly, more so this time of year, as they made our christmas's fun!!!! FIL passed away 6th jan 2000 MIL went 21st feb 1994, so missed very much, but remembered very fondly,

sorry you didnt have what i had!![grouphug]

[mizzy]

[grouphug] for you Leisa and for everyone else who will be missing someone special over the christmas period

Paula i am managing my stress at this very moment with 10 more minutes on the computer before being turfed off by my youngest child

and yes i know its early but here i am sat with very weak tia maria coffee before i head off for a quick nap to catch up on some zzzzzzzzzzzzz's whilst my darling husband takes over the "warzone" that is our house

[LiesaAnna]

thanks Mizzy[grouphug]

[Sharon G]

Yes [grouphug][grouphug] Liesa
...this is the very first Christmas without my dad and I honestly don't know how I'm going to feel not having him here with all the children.
I love Christmas but know this one I'll have mixed feelings!

Well managed to keep the lid on all those jumping mince pies!!!!.....it was the chocolate tiramisu that zapped me today!![msncry][msncry] only 600 calories per portion[msnscared]

[mizzy]

ooh Sharon i absolutley love tiramisu its got to be the most gorgeous dessert ever

the only problem is i have been known to eat the full dessert that is meant to serve 4 people[msnembarrased]

greedy doesn't even describe it, more gluttony than greed[msneek]
piggy, oink, oink

[msnembarrased]Mizzy

[Sharon G]

I tried desperately to resist it but....[easter1][xmas2][xmas2]

[mizzy]

lets be honest her Sharon
if i had a tiramisu in the fridge then i must be feeling ill
because it would normally have been devoured as soon as it entered the house from the supermarket shopping bag[msnembarrased]

i've never had a chocolate one though spill the beans where did you buy it?
