Dusty, Denise Fowler - just for you - sing along......

In The Wonderland Zoo,
There are certain bears who,
Stay at home every night,
Never quarrel or fight,
Hey! We don't even bite!
So don't yell,
Help! Help! Here come the bears,
Help! Help! Here come the bears,
Help! Help! Here come the bears,
Lets split!
It's the Hair Bear Bunch!

Sorry - don't know what came over me!!!!!!

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: Can't stop myself singing that now, it will drive me mad all weekend... :T

hi all,

i have had one of those days where i think i have managed a lot but havent actually got much to show, met friends for coffee this morning, did the weekly shop plus a few other shops, put the shopping away, collected girls from school, made some meals for the freezer, emptied DW and put on WM and thats it day has disappeared...


Dusty - thanks for the ideas re tulips.
johanne - pleased to her of your good fortune today
tooti - thats some list dont knock yourself make your list and take some enjoyment from crossing it off one at a time
nicki - sorry to hear of the incident last night hope your DD is okay over the weekend
julie - enjoy the film i saw it last Friday and have spent the week singing abba songs
polka - i only stray onto the comps for the puzzler thread not brave enough to go anywhere else!

Apologies if i have missed anyone ( i have but read thread without writing down who to mention)

Off to give the girls an early bath and then watch the final of superstars and work out a plan of action for the weekend

Sorry I asked:rotfl:

DF has just called to say he is on his way home and really ready for some boozing:rolleyes: He's on holiday the whole of next week:eek: so if Im not so active you get why. Obviously I'll try my best to keep up.

Its really funny though, Im tying to work out what I'll do with him at home for what?10 days? but at the same time stressing out about being left alone for three weekends over the course of the next three months:rolleyes:

Now I know this is not 'flying' but I need advice as to what to do so if pigpen doesnt mind I want to ask here first - I have narrowed my 'to do' list down into 4 categories (thanks to greenbee and denise for their help) the only one that I am concentrating on at the moment is the urgent/important one.
On this list I have 5 things -

1. do something about my debt problems - I have huge debts and have been trying to get them sorted for a long time and was making progress -anyway things got a bit worse with one of them in december - I went to the CAB and they started helping me or so I thought - the long and the short is I am still no further forward - Have any of you used the DFW board and got help - I am a bit scared of posting onthere to be honest but dont know what else to do.
2. decide about reclaiming bank charges - Do I start a claim for bank charges? I have read the main site info but seem to go round in circles - has anyone done a claim?
3. decide what to do about gas/elec bills
4. sort through paperwork on kitchen table and do filing - I have a small kitchen table (about 3feet x 2.5 feet) and it is stacked up with paperwork - I gathered all the piles of paper from about the flat and put it all there - some of the stacks are about 2 feet high!!! Should I spend a day doing it or should I just do it a bit at a time?? I cant eat in the kitchen until its done. and there is paperwork in it that i will need for some of these other items
5. Change bank details of 3 direct debits this is a fairly easy one when i find the paperwork - they need to be done before the 1st - OMG i have just realised thats monday - oh well I can probably find what I need and do that tomorrow.

I am really sorry if I shouldnt be posting this sort of thing- so i wont be offended if you cant answer me - or even if someone could pm me with any suggestions I would be very grateful - no.1 is a biggy and it scares the carp out of me!!

Thanks valli and yes trying to do too much for others is partly how I got into this mess !! I know I should take more care - its stress that agrravates my MG - and I do so want to get things under control before my next chemo - I will try but you will all have to keep an eye on me!!!

While my tea was cooking I did what you suggested deniseflower and I have a lovely sparkly bathroom with clean towells and smells lovely.

thanks for everyones kind wishes and support!!!

polkadot - glad your ds got some help at A&E -hope he feels better soon.

Have forgotten who all the new comers are now but WELCOME - this is best thread!!

toots xx

So glad you took a bit of time out Toots, and that you now have at least one room nice & clean (unlike my kitchen that was clean and tidy and is now a mess after dinner )

Oh, and Valli I love being called flower too, you should hear some of the names that I get called, definitely one of the best... :rotfl:

I'm done

Toots I'm sorry I can't help with the debt but lots here can and of course you can post about anything - haven't you realised that by now - this week we have had

smashed window
repossession
missing child
updates on pets
potty training
cooking recipes
somebody moaning about decorating
gardening tips

I'm sure somebody somewhere has done some flying but it sure wasn't me!
