I welcome your comments but be warned: I'm menopausal and as likely to snarl as smile. Wine or Maltesers are an acceptable bribe; or a compliment about my youthful looks and cheery disposition will do in a pinch. Cancel reply

This Is Me:
I am a little fat. I like food; what can I say? I have dull hair: mousey. I don’t wear much make-up and have no need of a dressing table. If I look like a bag lady, I chose my own clothes. If I look nice, the Hub picked them for me. Despite all this, I am a little vain. This photograph is from 2003. I had to go back that far to find one of me that I liked. But I don’t really care: my husband still thinks I’m beautiful and if he doesn’t, he loves me enough to lie about it. I’m lucky. I have two boys. They never lie to me. Still, you can't have everything.

I have a Jack Russell, your picture shown is so cute, Jack was that size when we got him last year. I am far to tired this morning to decipher the pictogram, I’m on low speed and the brain lit up at Jack Russell picture.

A pictogram, I love those! What a cool way to wish Pseu a happy birthday! And I’m sure she won’t mind you’re late. you’re just giving her the opportunity to give you her best comment yet.
I hope she doesn’t decide the best consequence is… OFF WITH YOUR HEAD! I think the rabbit may give her some ideas!
