Find Ancestors

stir-fry one of the options :-D

are we surprised???

I read the following this morning on the news page on my computer:-


"North Koreans sent to labour camps for not mourning enough

A news site that monitors activity in North Korea reports citizens of that country have been shipped to labour camps if they didn't shed genuine tears after the recent death of dictator Kim Jong-Il.

The North Korean government appears to have completed "criticism sessions" which allow neighbours and co-workers to identify people who didn't cry, or at least didn't appear genuine in shedding tears.

The minimum sentence for failing to mourn according to the script is six months in a labour camp."


I thought the tears looked fake on TV :-D :-D :-D

Please can I have one of your lovely chicken stir-fry's Sylvs ???

Hope you hear from OH soon.

I am sure he has arrived O.K. - just having a little 'settle' before he rings you.

Looked in earlier Gins but the place was deserted :-(


Have done a bit of ironing that's all. Went with OH to the supermarket for some exercise for him......the things one does!! :-S



Checked bank account on line and found - to my dismay - that Ancestry had charged me full rate when they promised 25% off.....Soon got that sorted I can tell you. Refund on its way :-D Phew.



Dishes to do......~~~~

Oh gowed, just read back on Fred and forgot when I pooped (popped!) to the supermarket on the way home from work I forgot to get porridge and dates..

I'll have to nick some of yours Gracie.unless our gorgeous Sylvs rustles some up in the morning <3 <3 <3

Oooh has no one been on all day.......I hope you aint bin cleanin Cynthia, its Friday..your day orf

Thanks Sylvs.....I'll help with the washing up whilst your OH is away.

Isn't it odd about the grapefruit thing.....and the way it interferes with certain meds ? :-S


My doc once told me that when you get to a 'certain age', the weight which lands in one's tum area is very hard to shift and any weight loss tends to come off other areas such as the face. I have decided to breathe in and keep smiling! :-D

I've never stuck to a diet for very long - no self control ;-)


Am hoping for a nice quiet day today............sigh.

Ive nicked some of Gracies 'hot prridge with a chopped up date, banana and maple syrup'........that sounds yum

Sylvs, can we have that on the breakfast menu for us slimmers <3

Since starting this healthy eating and exercise, I have had the worst weeks sleep ever, last night being the king of awake....I thought eating well was supposed to make you feel good :-S

Not giving up though. Im on a mission :-D

I am alright now I am in the warm Persie!
