I CAN'T SLEEP

That is all, pass the voddie this way please!

Oh has anyone else noticed berries ready for picking already? Loads of bramble bushes near the caravan with purple berries. Sorry, that was random, getting tired...I had to tell the kids this time not to pick them as we only had light coloured clothes and no bath (showers doesn't get purple kids clean!)

Loads round here - 10 jars of Bramble Jelly (NYOMNYOMNYOM) in my cupboard - on the xmas thread they are making Blackberry Vodka. (I only look, I haven't prepped yet unlike some I could mention). I have also seen sloes (blackthorn) ready so might take myself off to Lidl to buy cheap gin to make Sloe Gin. Then again I might not!

Hey Greenbee - thanks for the mention! Psyching myself up to go back to work so it's slightly earlier nights for me!

Morning all.

Ex told me last night (after me asking for 6 months :mad: ) that he will not help me with the debts he ran up in my name because he supported me for 8 years and feels that he's done enough even though he said he would help me with them. :mad::mad::mad: I've now hit the point where I've decided he is the biggest mistake I've ever made and if it wasn't for DD I'd cut him out of my life entirely. I can't be doing with this. I never thought I could ever hate anyone, but he's proved me wrong.

Guess who's ebaying today.

Why would he need £5?? We had get a carvery dinner and a dessert for that here!!! Mine take £2 each for their dinner money and if it isn't enough they have to consider their spending a little more..

I need a small whine...

MY LEGS HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRTTTTTT....

Can't we tell the weather has taken a turn for the colder!! I really struggled with 2 small bags of shopping (tonight and tomorrows food) just walking up the street. I do need to walk about a million miles to find somewhere that sells those flea tablets that kill all bugs within 24 hours.. cos Crazy is still lopping.

Morning all,

Sorry I'm late on here. I've got into the habit of watchin tv in bed once I've woken up in the mornings as we've got freeview in the bedroom now, so I watch montel and sally JR before getting up. I'm still in pjs but I've caught up on the thread now, so can get on with flying. I have absolutely no plans to venture out into the wind and rain today, so I can stay in pjs until it become unpractical to do so. Had a lovely cuddle with the cat, who is still curled up on the bed and looking very cute. He came in all soaked and needed warming up.

I hope everyone off to school got there safely.

Is anyone up for a HHC 10.30-11.00?

I have a small sized train cat purring on my lap.. so I am having a flea picking session.. they are MASSIVE!!! .. it is gross.

I have got a crappet for the boys room so hubby is collecting that on Saturday and slapping it on the floor.. I might get the walls another slop of paint before it goes down if I get a wriggle on today and tomorrow.. providing I can walk up the stairs!!! I can't do that at the moment.

See I couldn't do that pigpen, cos not only is my cat black, making it really difficult to see them, but they would probably jump straight off him and straight onto me. Biting bugs all love me!
