Daily Thread for Weds 27th December

Hi, this is the Daily Thread for Wednesday 27th December ,2006. This is an “over the garden fence” type thread where we chat about everything OS and maybe a little bit more. It’s a great, inspiring and motivating thread we start each day to discuss what we’re going to do today or what we’ve achieved already. Everyone’s welcome, please do come in, put your feet up (although check the fence hasn’t just been painted first!) and join us for an OS natter. The more the merrier!

When you make a post, if you feel like giving it a title, that will help others that don’t have the time to read everything skim through the thread quickly but if not it's not a problem, we’re a laid back bunch here so you won’t hear any complaints. Please do not start a new daily thread before you go to bed at night because this often leaves things confusing with two daily threads live at the same time. The idea is that a member would start each new daily thread after they get up in the morning

Some people who chat here like to try to answer everyone. Don’t feel you have to though, a general “hi everyone, hope everyone’s well” type start does just as well.


:wave: Good Morning All - Hope we are well
Its been a while since I started the daily thread.

Ive been to bed but not slept for my head & ear ache. The infection - not sure if its getting better or worse, but Im constantly getting ringing noises (like the ones you get when you come out of a noisy club) or crunching sounds - like you get when walking in the snow. Its leaking like mad and its a horrible yucky black colour. (sorry if your'e eating breakfast when reading this) When I lay on that ear, it pop's, and it keeps popping to the extent that it wakes me up. Its so annoying now. So had to come down stairs and take more pain killers.

Myself & OH watched that "after thomas" drama last night, very good, OH cried. I knew he would. He as an autistic son, so it brought back memories. He doesn't see his son, not thru his choice, the ex is a bit of a MOO! He's back at work today, Im not back now til thurs. So he's got the luxury of using my car today instead of walking.

Plans for today - will try and attempt some sleep in a bit, then it'll be more washing, general tidy and get the kids to help take their Xmas presents upstairs and put away. Hope to get into to town after OH finishes work and pay the usual monthly bills.

If I have time, I hope to sort through the wardrobes/drawers and whats worth selling, I will attempt to get them ready and list on ebay sometime in the New Year.

I also need to go through my airing cupboard, update any bedding (mainly sheets Im short of for the kids beds) and get rid of the older bedding etc.
New year approaching - New me, continue and put more effort into OS.

OH's mum did go to DFS and brought a new suite. She gets it in 10weeks time, which means I get to have her old suite. Its a lovely lemon leather colour, very big n comfy, better than the one my OH got, we've not had it long, but it was a bargain at the time, but so uncomfortable.

Hope you've had luck with finding Cookies grannybroon. It seems strange calling you grannybroon - my Nanna's maiden name was Boon, and her mum was known to us all as "grannyboon". She was a Hitler in those days - Im sure your'e the total opposite. :A

Anyway - Ive rambled on long enough now. Going to make myself a hot milky drink and try and settle down.

Have a good day everybody
Take care & Love as usual
