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:

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}.

Right kitchen is very do-able for me tomorrow. I'm going to make sure I keep up with it all this week (didn't do too badly last week actually!) I'm also going to make sure I post a lot more (which could be counter-productive :rotfl: ) because I want my second medal :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:so only about 56 posts to go
You're going to have to post a helluva lot as you get your second medal at 2000 posts;)The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.Bertrand Russell0 -
Girls have now arrived but their dad says the binmen have already been, they were early this morning. I hope they haven't or they come round again because I've only just put my bin out - they never normally come until lunchtime - and it's full! I haven't heard them so if they came they must have come while I was in the bath.NST #10 Steps 7K 2/30 10K 2/12 5 a day 3/30 NSD 0/20

Glad he is able to see again.. he needs forewarning when you are walking up the path.. no honestly I really am pleased.. losing your sight must be one of the owrst things. Relief flows from Brownie camp!! Hopefully she won't have taken any sicky germs with her.. or she might just have taken them and shared with her friends and she is the only left there!! lol
I have another dozen parcels or so expected from Next... I'd take DS for a walk.. the fresh air will do you both good..LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -

Hungry is a good sign! Glad your dad can see again.
I got great stuff in the next sale, i struggle to find jeans to fit as i am a 28/29 inside leg and can never find ones short enough:o Next petite fit perfectly, so i got 3 pairs of jeans and a pair of trousers for £47. Roughly £12 a pair so i was very happy, should have been just over £100. Probably could have bought more but i restrained myself.The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.Bertrand Russell0 -
