    Just about to retire to bed :D

    Quite alot done today so am pleased. 2 washloads-havent used the TD for 2 weeks now :T DW done and emptied, floor swept, kitchen sides done, and cuboard fronts wiped down. Toilet cleaned and bathroom quick lick. Lunch and diiner all went well. Dinner was finally not Toad In Hole but lamb chops, mash and veg..never mind..LOL. OH did some decorating and I watched a film ;)

    OH has really hurt his back so has to go to an oestipath friday-luckily we have HSA so should cost no more than £8. Looks like he'll need the stair lift more than me :eek:

    Anyways, Im off to have a cheese and pickle sarnie with a bag of crisps as im hungry. SIL here tomorrow and need to make a list of jobs for her to do-no shes not a slave...LOL...well a good paid slave anyway :rotfl:

    Have me pschotherapy tomorrow too :eek:

    Chat tomorrow. Good night and god bless you all :p

    Still not fully back on the OS band wagon :rolleyes: but am trying hard.

    I seem to have the opposite problem than most of you - really struggling to get up in the morning :o so no breakfast and lunch was only a small packet of crisps from home that I grabbed before I left :o but OH has just cooked me Gammon, Chips and Veg with egg and pinapple :j (well I only ate 2 chips as I don't like oven chips but we're out of potatoes suitable to do as jackets).

    Work wasn't great - people seem really stressed and keep moaning but I'm the lowest of the low so I just do what I'm told and think of the money.

    Selling stuff fund not going too well this month, 3 things from amazon and 1 thing on the university small ads so might try and brave ebay - think I might photograph the things I've listed on small ads then link to these in my advert tonight and sort out the things I want to try on ebay - my first time :o

    OH has sold some more lego online - don't ask so I've just picked those for him while he was cooking.

    Managed a load of washing last night and that's dry so think I should probably put another load on - have guests coming this weekend so need to get money done before then so we don't have washing hanging up whilst they're trying to sleep.

    Morning All,

    Blimey, I've been up for an hour and a half watching last nights lost with DD2. Thought someone might have started this by now!

    CQ FANTASTIC to have you back hun. I dont envy you the unpacking, though I've got it all to face in 2 months time :eek: Just take your time with the neighbours, getting to know people in "reality" is a long process. Take your time and do things as you feel comfortable with them. I dont know the situation with your son but it must be nice to have him home with you and that much closer now. Welcome home chick :grouphug:

    Playgroup today- YAY! First time in a month all the kiddies have been out somewhere to play. Yesterday afternoon was so mild they all played in the garden for a couple of hours and have had a decent nights kip - well, all except dd2 of course :rolleyes:

    Nowt planned today, maybe make some spag bol in the SC tonight but thats about it.

    Hope you all have a good day,
    Al.

    WM on and will be dried again on the airer. DW will go on after breakfast (wasnt used yesterday :D ), toilet cleaned. Thats really about it today as cleaner is here tomorrow.

    OH's back is really bad and can just about walk, so think he will be doing nothing today...apart from taking me to the hospital. I know this sounds selfish, but i hopes he's ok as I need him :o

    Dinner: Shepards Pie & veg

    Will call back in later. Have a good day.

    Mmmmmmmm......its HARD. Ticklemouse warned me to come off the coffee slowly but I tried cold turkey and it was nasty. Migraine, blurred vision, feeling cold all the time :eek: So am nowdoing it sensilby and cutting back by having half a tsp in the mug instead of a whole one, and reducing by one cup a day. The food bit isnt so bad although to be honest I would find it easier in summer. My tummy wants warm, stodgy stuff in winter not salad. No weight lost yet but feel better knowing I am eating properly. Will keep it up and it WILL start to come off eventually.

    Morning..

    Feel rubbish. Didnt get the house. Most c*ap thing happened.. viewing was at 5:30pm.. we were running early (where gonna look around the area) so at about 4:45pm we were 2 streets away! yes just 2 streets .. when my friends mobile goes and its the estate agent to say someone else had just had a viewing and applied so we'd lost it and they didnt have anything else similar at the moment.. "sorry" :( :mad: Im so annoyed they let other people view it before us! When i viewed this place we all come round together so we all had a fair chance.

    Suffice to say i got upset which turned to anger with my friend cos he didnt seem bothered at all.. was just "oh well shall we go back to yours for a bit and watch some telly?" :mad: :mad: BUT he still lives at home with his parents so hes got nothing to lose.. whereas now looks like gonna lose my house and have to move back home to my mums and put all my furniture in storage as i have to give my landlord a months notice and i can only JUST afford to pay my rent on Tuesday so im gonna have to give my notice tomorrow or monday so i dont have to find more money for the month after. Which means... i have less than a month to find somewhere new... which when no-where round here will take DSS and im still unemployed.. im a bit erm.. stuck... to put it polietly.

    After storming off from my friend before i punched him for being an insensitive ******* and walking the 2 miles to my mums house in floods of tears and trying hard not to have a panic attack.. i got that horrible.. "upset so i feel sick" feeling.. which hasnt vanished this morning.. you know the one with the lump in your throat and the burning eyes from crying?? :( Just wish i knew what id done so wrong to deserve all the bad luck ive had lately.

    So today i plan on doing very little except selling half my house on ebay so i can afford to pay off some of my credit card! :(

    Sorry for posting another down and moany post everyone. Think i might stop posting unless i have something really positive to say.. i always seem to be moaning or gloomy.

    I got up at 4.30 as I couldn't sleep, so I;ve stripped the beds and done 2 loads of washing and have scrubbed the living room carpet by hand:eek: , as it was so dirty. I've now run out of elbow grease, but i'm sure i've got some under the sink somewhere;) .

    I plan to have a good do through the house today, so after a browse and a coffe I shall get on.

    OOh and my new bigger improved slow cooker arrived yesterday, so I shall be testing that as well today. the excitement is almost too much:j :dance: :dance:

    have a good one, and for those who's day hasn't started too wel (((((((((hugs))))))))))), and I hope that those in pain feel better as the day goes on ((((PP)))))):hello:
