Evening all.

Have had the day at work, then ended up ferrying OH around because the van broke down. Ended up calling the AA, and they helped us jump start it. Sadly I think the battery AND the starter motor are both stuffed. Not sure what we'll do - can't really afford to fix it.

How did you manage to get near him with tweezers? Sometimes my DH has an eyebrow hair which sticks out, but he won't let me near him with tweezers.

I've seen men with bushes growing out of their ears :rotfl:

I often attack my OHs eyebrows and he lets me - I hate sticky out ones. :rolleyes:

Don't you believe it. Your punishment will be extra work :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Yip, just my luck. Have you noticed I did loads yesterday in the hope she didn't throw something at me {smiles sweetly at piggers}.

Teria - hope hospital trip goes ok.

DS slept through the night. He's just woken up and had a piece of dry toast and a small amount of water. Lets hope he's ok now. I was only sick once in the night. When I got up there was musli poo all over the kitchen floor (our dog eats the bird seed that's fallen on the ground outside and the result was everywhere!!!). I dread to think what i'll have to deal with tomorrow. Sitting with DS for an hour then i'm going to start flying - honest!

I managed the kitchen yesterday, and not only cleaned the hob, but did the whole oven! I]smugly polishes nails on jumper[/I. I haven't washed out the bin yet. I'm trying to stuff as much rubbish in the bin bag as I can because I've run out, and the shop had a BOGOF on the ones I use last week (which I didn't see :mad:) so have run out. I hope they get a delivery today. :rolleyes:

I was good yesterday because DH was home during the day. (I had to make him think I actually do something and don't spend all day on here :rotfl:). We all had a dentist appointment in the afternoon and there was an air of nervous gloom over the house all day :rotfl:. DD1 had a tooth ripped out :eek:. She has never liked wobbling her teeth (funny, I used to enjoy it, but maybe I'm just weird ) so her new tooth is growing up wonky, so the dentist took out her baby tooth. She's threatening to take out two more in six months to stop other teeth coming up wonky. I'm actually quite proud of the fact that my children have never had to have any fillings!

Guess who's the only member of the family who only needs to go every 12 months?

Off to do some jobs

Have some breakfast
Have a :coffee:
Go round picking up any dirty clothes (mainly DD1 :rolleyes:)
WM
Bathroom

Tia or pigpen
Bunny question - little monkey has started peeing all over the place when she is out her cage, usually on clothes if they are left anywhere! Any tips on getting her out of this habit?

neuter her!!

Mine did it to 'mark her territory'... and advertise her need to breed...
