Hi everyone

Hob is almost done:j Thank you for all the ideas and the manual Lil_me. DF came home and took it apart...I was right.It was horrid,so he's ordered in some curry as a treat. Told me he really wants me to take a break now-that it's clear flylady has become a habit I want to keep and (now he knows its not a phase:rotfl: ) he will do his best to do more to help.

good for him polka - really pleased he will help you more. Well done with the hob!

Bit of a day at work, managed to get my wrists slapped :eek: I need to stop being the one who always points out issues with things, everyone knows they are there but I am the only one willing to be difficult sometimes...I've decided I've done it enough now and I'll just keep my head down and get on with my job now.

got home early in the end as my last thing of the day was cancelled (not before I got there though, so was easier to come home than go back to the office!) Meant I had slot a quiet slot to get on with work emails etc and get the dinner on early. DH said he'll wash up etc later and so I'm having a rest and watching Tess of the Durbervilles from sunday night and drinking a cuppa.

Before bed I need to:
make myself relax, get one of DH's shoulder massages perhaps
pack for work tomorrow
print out walking route for work tomorrow
pack for staying at friends tomorrow night
S&S bathroom

Toots you can come by all means but it will switch itself off in 10 5 minutes now. It has taken the chill off - right bed for DS3 and pick up for DS2

also, ladies, keep me posted when you decide to meet, I've got loads of holiday so might be able to make it if i could get a cheap train!

rach ((hugs)) frustrating when it's like that, I have been in the same situation way too many times. Some people aren't willing to stick up for themselves or argue with management which is when everything becomes ****. Sometimes it's best to take a back seat then at least you know you tried and got nowhere when things fall apart.

polka well done for getting your DH on board, wow, more than mine does over a year later :rotfl: saying that if he did start now he'd probably just get in my way.

DP said 'shouldn't take long I'll be back by tea time' **well he still isn't here** so late dinner for us, again! Found out the kids activities have changed, being winter etc. Will have to remember next week to go to the right place. Heating - DP has been sneaking ours on. I will probably use it a little more now, more because of the kids when theyare coming out of bath etc, I'm ok at the mo. DP is a nightmare and had it on in August! Kids bed time then I must do a little studying!
