    morning everyone.

    I read down the list and saw clean the oven and suddenly remembered all of this really important stuff I have to do today :) Besides mine is supposed to be self cleaning so all I have to do is open the door and tell it to get on with it... surely :confused:

    I'm off for the repeat 4d scan this morning, fingers crossed my lodger will behave this time and give us some pictures.

    other than that and a nip round sainsbury's, hubby is home so I intend to park myself on the sofa with him and watch movies. We have to make the most of the little bit of time we do get.

    Good morning...

    I went to Aqua aerobics again last night and it was even harder this week - but I really enjoyed it. Came home and had to take Wayne to A&E; he cut his leg on Saturday night / sunday morning but didn't think he wanted to go to A&E cos all they'd do is stick needles in him and hurt him. 36 hours later, it was STILL bleeding and he had this rather fetching 4" angry red "halo" surrounding the top and a 2" red "skirt" underneath the cut.

    He needed 4 x-rays, 2 vials of lignocaine to numb the area while the nurse removed loads of gravel but they couldn't stitch it up so he's having to have it packed and dressed until it heals - I'm to keep watch in case the redness increases or starts tracking and if it starts tracking I'm to rush him by ambulance to A&E.

    I feel shattered this morning.

    Hope everyone's day starts better.

  • Toto, enjoy time with DH-say 'hey hoser' to him for me. ;)

    Sammy-looking forward to setting the world's to right later-hopefully my DH with tidy the house as it looks as though a bomb has gone off...

    Cat! Tell Wayne I hope he feels better soon and to stop being such a baby and that he should have gone to A&E earlier...


    and to everyone else-MORNING!
    I'm working today (And I am increasingly hating my job) and then home to get house into sone kind of tidy state so Sammy doesnt think I am a dirty ditch pig.

    Morning all.. ouch Cat, made my leg feel funny just reading that :eek: Sally that sounds sore too!

    Toto, hope you have a nice relaxing day and Bean is feeling like posing ;) and Sammy & Bunny have a lovely time later.

    I feel like cr*p today - second restless night in a row, didn't get to sleep till after 3am. Tempted to phone in sick but I'd only end up sleeping during the day then being awake all night again.. :rolleyes:

    Toto - Good luck with the 4d scan - finger's crossed she behaves.
    Bunny & Sammy - enjoy the visit.
    Sally - I hope your neck gets better - tis the season for wasps & bees to die in a kami-kazi way but hope it doesn't hurt yoo much
    RS - It's horrid when your body clock isn't compatible with a daytime clock. I often think I should become a night worker just so that I'm working when I'm awake and sleeping when tired but I know that if I did change to a night worker, I'd want to sleep at night:confused:.
