The other day when I really wasn't feeling well at all, and my sinuses were really blocked, I felt like my whole face was swollen. I asked my OH if it looked swollen to him and he said.... "No, not swollen but you look slept in...."

	A few months ago I was talking to a 30 year old male friend who I have known for some time. Can't remember why but my age came into the conversation and I told him I was 42. His reply was...you don't look that old. So is 42 old then??????

"That was really nice Pen......... but when you are hungry you'll eat anything!" over Christmas "That was nice today!" She had stayed for nearly a week - what was wrong with the other days!
