    Well just had a phonecall and they want to contact my references so cannot of been that bad (i guess:confused: ).

    Poohbear, sounds like you need to take some deep breaths. You have a great and understanding DH there by the sounds of it. Hugs hun!

    Pigpen - Yuck!! Maggoty things i can not do:eek:

    Hev - Pigpen doing an interview, piece of cake just slide her a bottle of vodka and a pint pot:D :rotfl: , then tell her she offered me the job!

    Have decided to make a very unhealthy tea of sausage rolls (making batch up for freezer anyway), HM oven chips and beans. Need to have a mooch around to see what is in the freezer.

    Still got no energy or motivation maybe a cuppa will help.

    Afternoon all

    Glad I'd had lunch beofre I got to your post Pigpen - I could not deal with that either!

    Been helping at DS3 sports day all morning so all I've done so far today is 2xwm one dry one on line.

    Plan is to hoover everywhere as the floor is bitty - I hate it when bits of stuff keep sticking to your feet and then see what time I have left.

    Shell you will get another job, you had one before, you have so much on your hands right now you are going to feel overwhelmed x

    Hev have you thought about the Paul McKenna tapes re your diet coke issue (library may have them or ebay) I have heard of people being about to give up chocolate and things very successfully - the cds might help you to be less stressed aswell.

    Right.. insect larvae dealt with ...

    dinner consumed
    cuppa swilled.. just waiting for my muscles to shop shaking then I'll go do some more.. I have an hour before I have to collect the monsters,.. and they are off the next 2 days!!

    JObs in task order..
    1. Washing OUT..tick..
    2. Washing IN .. flea..
    3. DW unloaded and reloaded .. louse..
    4. Fridge slopped.. it smells odd..
    5. Washing folded ..mite..
    6. Sweep under the table...
    ok.. that'll do me..

    Oh.. the insect larvae that has formed itself a shell to become it's final form.. will they hatch in the vacuum or do I have to blurk them into the bin?.. and boil them?
