  • Hi All... and esp. Hiya Toots :hello: I am here, just about! so tired at the mo tho. Can hardly summon up the energy to move. + My mother took me on a 'short' walk.... hhhmmm, clearly we have a different definition of the term short! :rolleyes:

    I've just caught up on the end of last week's thread and this one! about 20 pages in all! - nothing to do with being too idle to do any work you understand, I just couldn't bear to miss anything!! :D

    Good job I did read it all, because...

    Whoop whoop, Mudders got a new pooch!!!! How cool is that!!! :j :T :j

    That's nice news, Mudders, and I'm very glad she's behaving so well. I watch The Dog Whisperer for super duper training tips... although, doesn't sound like you need any! ;)

    On the flying front,
    I've emptied the DW.
    Made some bread in the BM.
    Put a load on in the WM, and
    folded a load from the TD.
    + ordered DD1&2's converses that they've been saving up for! (bless)
    + ordered nephew's 1st birthday pressy. A nice loud American voice toy, that he will LOVE... if my SIL gives to him!! *insert wicked face laughing smily*
    I write this to:
    a) keep on topic (I'm guessing there's been an issue with this?? :confused: )
    And
    b) to tell myself I have actually done something which will make me feel better when I go and slob on the sofa!

    DH would go mad if he caught me boiling it in a pan :rotfl:.

    I boil mine in a pan and have a little spare toothbrush for brushing the wording which I personally think is a really stupid design fault - DW sounds like a good idea though.

    Afternoon:

    Had lunch
    posted ebay parcels
    had ebay item collected
    done food shop and put away.
    changed hygenist appointment.

    An hour is not enough time left to do the kitchen so I am going to do the living room instead as it really needs it most and I want to start the week with a room finished.

    Anyone want to join me at 2:00
