Beannielou you couldn't say a nicer thing to me :blushing:

If I were debt free, and if my parents weren't so in need (Mum has Altzheimers) and the children were slightly more independent (almost there) I would be with OH, and writing. We could cope with losing my income.

But you would have to be an expat wife.........not quite "desperate housewives" but almost, in my experience.........:rolleyes:

Mind you, you would get quite good at "coffee mornings" and you could be captain of the ladies golf club.......

Large glass of red and I've only eaten a third of a tube -mashing them into my gob as fast as you could say "weighing yourself tomorrow are you?"

£122.85 for 6 items, 2 more finish tomorrow and the carp finishes next weekend.

Popeye's Skype connection keeps failing

But:

• I stopped eating the Pringles
• I have £122.85 into the pot.

So I'll stop complaining now
And I think there are 2 KitKats in the cupboard.

I don't play golf

And I can't remember being in a girlie group (playgroup mums/coffee mornings/school runs etc, I'm not sure I'd know how to behave.:rotfl:
(We were the only single parent family in the childrens first school apart from a widowed mum, who was delightful, but had huge support from her family and so never needed a like-situation-friend.)

I expect I'd have virtual friends.........:D But you're right Hypno, so very not me.

hypno06

you would soon play golf....and join in the quilting circle.....believe me, it ain't pretty!!

Still got 2/3 of a tube of pringles left.....and two kit kats.....I am mightily impressed.

My kit kat chunky is now contributing to my cellulite, and there will surely be no additional damage that the 2 remaining boost bars can do........., so I might as well put them out of their misery....

Ive just had half a large bar of Smartie choc~ooops!

Karmacat

Day 12 :eek: In some ways, time's flying, (raise £1,000.00 and in others it d r a g s (63 days 'til I see Popeye)

Went to bed early last night, when I was kicked off the pooter by DS2 (I over-stayed my time by half an hour, and I'd said the time I'd finish, so he wasn't being unreasonable for a change) and funnily enough that has made me tremendously chaotic this morning. I also feel irritable and intolerant. I'm planning to put in a complaint about the workmen next door who, for the last 2 1/2 weeks have started noisy work most days between 7.15 and 8 am. OH spoke to them directly, and also to the neighbour, each time they'd be quiet the following day and then jack-hammer or such-like outside our bedroom window bang on 8 am. I probably won't complain, but I'm composing the phone call as an outlet for my irritability

Forget weigh in this morning - I did
But I'll do it tomorrow.......and that is nothing to do with last nights Pringles.

3 Amazon parcels to dispatch. They paid by Paypal - fees PAH!
Last time one chap bought 10 of the items - so much easier to send out - PAH again
(see how irrita[strike]ting[/strike]ble I'm being, I should just grow up, and go to work.
