  • Hi everyone

    I will be in *carefully* this week, trying to do little bits at a time.
    Have only skimmed the thread, so please take a *hug* all who are poorly.
    Thanks for all your kindness & encouragement

    Nuns have been mooted... and ten of us on the train might give the Arriva Wales ticket man something to talk about! My friend at work explained how she was going as the cyclone from the Wizard of Oz complete with paper maiche house as a hat. Not sure how I'm going to compete with that... or if I should even try.

    Third lobster, perhaps?

    O-k... Eliza Doolitle? (My Fair Lady) The Grinch..??.. yes there was singing in that... NOTHING from high school musical or I will personally rearrange your toup!e .. Shrek!!! .. Well Fiona sang to the bird that makes it a musical IMO.. and Donkey did loads of singing.. A 'Gone with the Wind' cowboy? .. oh.. seven brides for seven brothers.. how many years is it since I saw that? ... about 100? ... and Calamity Jane ... (that IS me!!) I love that film!! ..

    My head still says T-birds.. esp if there are a group of you.. you wouldn't get off the train unmolested.. lol..

    or.. pmsl.. an 80's reject type from Footloose?? .. PMSL...

    Ooh.. FAME... sweatband and leotards... lol

    I could get all carried away!

    Well I am sitting here at 22:47 wanting to go to bed but DD1 (10 on tue) is sitting on the little sette behind me complaining of being not well..( she does not normally swing the lead so probably is ill)..

    Nicki I would love to leave at 8:50 to get mine to school

    we have to leave at 8:30 to get them there for 8:45...DS (6) finishes at 3:20 and DD finishes at 3:40 (thankfully she walks home by her self) (only 600 yards away and no major roads to cross and walks home with freind)..

    Just realised thats 7 hours in school....

    This weeks plans are.....

    DE-Draught house
    fix cat flap so it actually flaps ratehr than big hole in back door:mad:
    gloss skirtings in front room
    tidy our room (needs loads of work ):o
    De-frost freezer 2
    get loads of washing done
    dry clothes on rack not all in tumble dryer
    Wrap DD1 presents for tuesday
    find afore mentioned presents first....:eek:
    sort out bookcase and maybe give a few to charity shop (actually that will never happen I just love my books to much).:confused:
    Take a few kids toys to charity shop (Mrs Oj will have to edit them):o

    Im reading, not neccesarily taking part.
  • Very proud to see I've not seen evne High School Musical 1... let alone 7, or whatever they're up to now!

    T-birds is actually a v inspired plan - esp as one of my mates bears a passing resemblance (in the right light, with a head wind) to John Travolta... never mind making it off the train, I suspect we wouldn't get across Mermaid Quay unmolested!

    So.. if I'm not needed at work tomorrow, looks like I'm off to Hobos (wonderful second hand shop in one of the Victorian arcades) looking for Grease outfits for ten. This is gonna do wonders for my reputation!

    Do you think they'd stitch "pigpen's boys" into the T shirts if I asked nicely???!

    Thanks Tooch - for some reason I'd not thought of the market! will dip in tomorrow xx

    sewing - cuff/whistle/shorten troussers
    ff order - waiting for sis to confirm xmas pressie
    order certificate
    lidl/sainsbury whilst DS3 at beavers

    Deal with the hotspots rather than growing them
    decide on isa
    ring EDF

    Living Room
    Dusting, even if around everything
    Wipe and water plants

    Bathroom
    Clean floors
    Clean bath


    Study
    Clear any clutter from desk
    Dust PC and desk and wipe off those cup rings!!
    Wipe keyboard, house phone, sockets, switches and mouse etc
    defragment your pc while doing this.

    delete some emails
    do some surveys
    check statements


    Dalies on top of this.

    Thanks for the hugs, feeling much better now.
