morning all! gosh its quiet here so far!
am off out for a girly day today(am thinking of this as a second birthday as I didn't really celebrate the proper one the other day);)
First its off to get my nails redone in a french manicure then shopping with my best mate then lunch with the girls - and one boy - a lovely 17 year old lad who is on an apprenticeship at work but who is great fun.
DH is at work, his back is still really stiff but he wants to make it through till the end of the week.
(((hugs))) to betheebee and her DD xxx
Mrs_Mix and Catowen :hello: :hello:

morning
yesterday went shopping for new outfit, but came home empty handed.
today, hair cut + highlights. and I must get some serious housework done. the place is overflowing with the ironing piles from all the post holiday washing.
garden could do with some weeding....still got some paperwork to see to...and this is a holiday?
off to catch up with threads, so can't mention any names yet, but hugs to anyone who needs them and happy birthdays for anyone having one today...x x x0 -
Morning all!!
Lovely day again down here, why fly to the med when it's as hot as it is here!!!
Got a real OS day today. After work i'll be handbaking two fresh loaves of bread and making a summer fruit sponge as we've got a BBQ tomorrow and we like to take something with us. My mate is 33 and my Sister is 30, both on the same day so a heady weekend is in order........:beer:
I hope you all have a fantastic weekend whatever you do and i hope you all have nice weather!!:hello:

Good morning, everyone.
Cheese salad sandwiches for lunch
Sausage casserole then h/m ice-cream and crumbles for dinner (crumbled up broken biscuits.)
Have changed supplier for my veg box. Trying Abel and Cole now. First delivery was excellent.
Reasonably on top of the housework for a change, fruitbowl contains fruit only
so am going to take the steam cleaner to the grout in the shower today. Need some shopping too. And we've all finished our library books so a trip there at some point too.
Having trouble with my handmade bread being too heavy so going to stick some in the breadmaker. And if the little one manages to have a nap and give me some time, I'll be making a cake in my wonderful new cake pan. :T
Have a good day. Enjoy your bbq, Penny and your 'birthday', taplady.May all your dots fall silently to the ground.0 -

I shall be an eccentric old spinster, living on a canal boat, wrapped up in all sorts of raggedy shawls & a pair of over-sized wellies, with 95 cats…. People will know me as “that mad woman” or something like that…. lol :rolleyes:
My mate that I was going to be an "old lady with cats" with wnet and got married last year so I could join you on the boat - but not just yet - there may still be hope
w*rk this morning and then a lunchtime solicitor's appointment to get dd's travel letter witnessed. I have written the letter and arranged the fee and the appointment - all Mr caringsharing has to do is turn up on time - I'm stressed that he won't. he was meant to take dd to the dentist yesterday but didn't book the time off so middle dd took her instead but as he couldn't remember the time of the appointment she had to wait around for hours. I didn't even know this was happening until middle dd called for a rant. little dd at nearly 12 still has 10 baby teeth so the orthodontist will see her next year for a brace. I'm not surprised as she had no teeth till she was about 14 months.I'm going to feed our children non-organic food and with the money saved take them to the zoo - half man half biscuit 20080 -
Morning all :wave:
Lovely day here again, I've run out of things to wash :rolleyes:
Beemuzed, happy anniversary :beer:
I am in a sorting out mood, so am going to roll up my sleeves and hopefully I will have a few bags for the charity shop / tip.
Going to an auction tonight, so takeaway for dinner.
Have a great day everyone, and try not to get burned xYou're only young once, but you can be immature forever

Stefjb, yep, there's still time but I'll keep it as the back-up plan

TiredMum, sorry it didn't go as well as you hoped, but at least a resolution/end is in sight?
Hilstep, good I'm glad they've been told!!!! The whole point of OccHealth is supposedly to be to support you & keep you in work...
Right, off to Bognor shortly - have a good day all.
PS - meant to say - Dazi, a friend of my oldest DD works in the same place as your DS (I think!), and she is supposed to be enquiring if there are any other jobs for my middle DD... (does that make sense?!?!)Live your life until love is found, or love's gonna get you down" (credit to Mika!)
