Evening all

Wish I could say I've been so busy being OS today that I haven't been able to post. Instead I've had a raging hangover. Went out last night with lots of colleagues who have had their ward closed. As farewell parties go it was quite tame. Nurses really do know how to have a good time when they go out en-masse.

CANDY hugs to you and yours.
GLAD OMG :eek: .

SNOWY hugs to you and Dylan.

Big hugs to anyone else who needs one.

It's rained here all day today

Tea tonight is sweetpotatoe and cheese bake, baked beans and bacon.

Have a good night all.

Jan :A xxxx

Glad

well it's dark out now and tree hasn't moved so fingers crossed all will be ok overnight

there's a chicken in the oven and we're having sweet potato mash, roast parsnips carrots and broccoli, with trifle for afters

I've done a load of ironing in front of 'come dine with me'

hope everyone has had a good day x

Good evening ladies, guess what? Yup I am throwing myself on your sweet mercy again. I need help AGAIN (sorry) I have been buying cooking apples as if my very life depended upon it. Have an excellent apple book-only I haven't got the book
Mrs CM is back from her friends on Tuesday and we have family from Friday to the following Mon/Tue. I wanted to stun everyone with my creations(am off work till 12th) and other than apple pie I am stuck......Unless I "know" some:A very brilliant,:A kind,:A clever,:A people that can tell a rather dumb wanabe cook with a huge ammount of apples................................(please help)

Hi all

Big hugs to everyone that wants one today.

What a stressful day i've had today.

I bought my DD a cabinet from vertbaudet and tried to build it this afternoon but it was a nightmare... Its still in 2 peices so I need to get off here and go finish it off now I suppose.

My DW has started to leak, when I moved the small chest freezer next to it, there were rust marks all over the floor from the bottom of the freezer so my dh had to scrub for about an hour to get it off. We have moved the freezer to the garage but think i will need to get a plumber in to look at the leak!

We managed to get rid of of my Dining room table today on freecycle so we are now going to use the dining room for our boxes when they are packed ready for the move.

DD and DS have been in naughty mode all day, they have fought and whinged and cried and screamed all day:eek: I couldn't wait to put them to bed tonight.

My slow cooker soup from yesterday was gorgeous. I have it batched up ready for lunches this week so should save me a fortune on lunches.

right off to finish this cabinet now!

enjoywhats left of the weekend all

bye

Thriftlady - did you feel it in Worcester? was at about 6.15 this evening.(sorry its not OS but I wanted to tell someone as its my first earthquake:D )

Hi everyone,

What a great thread. I have enjoyed reading all your posts and I am sorry to hear that some of you have not had a great day.

Today I have had a very lazy day but I am proud of myself that at last I have managed to repair the buttons on a jacket and a cardigan, a task that I have put off for months. Needle work is the most boring task that I can think off but I also know that losing a button can be very expensive and very annoying if it's on a favourite item.

Sending a hug to those who feel that they need one.

Have a nice week.

Becky
