morning all, are all the early birds still snoozing?

I'm having a slow start to the day, am up and dressed and just about to have some breakfast. I bought a huge pack of yellow stickered bacon so am going to have some of that and then stick the rest in the freezer.

Need to take some library books back, decide what to do for dinner and get on with AQA.

Have a good one all.

    Morning BB - bacon sounds like a good idea for brekkie!

    Off to see to the horse in a minute and then a massive housework blitz this afternoon before the children end up buried beneath a pile of ironing!

    Have a great day everyone x x

  • I'm munching a huge pile of bacon sandwiches and watches the Now 1983 programme on catch up that was on last night - cheers for telling me it was on Bob!

    OMG - Nik Kershaw looks frightening like Gary Glitter! :eek:

    Weather supposed to be awful this weekend, so we're going to get our running around (visiting inlaws, going to asda) early this afternoon. Then we have a weekend of DIY, including scraping off wallpaper and painting the living room to have it ready before December and holiday decorations go up. At least working on stuff will keep us warmer and we won't need to turn the heat up. :rotfl:

  • well, that's the end of memory lane travelled!!! Oh, I loved my batwings jumpers!! :rotfl:

    It's dull and trying to rain here, think I'll go out now and get the stuff done I need to. I still need to change back my euros from my holiday so I'll do that as well.

  • Morning,
    I had a dreadful sleep last night-Aunt Flo is a horrible guest and had me up most of the night.

    Feel like i've been run over today. Car dead-think it's the battery and Tescos online is playing up-trying to avoid having to go do a shop...

    That's about it for me.

    morning everyone,

    I'm fresh as a daisy this morning, poor hubby is in bed.. he only got to bed at 7 when I got up :) bless him, he is doing the night shift so I can sleep. he's back at work monday so I'm making the most of having him here.

    I'm expressing milk and bottle feeding because Lily couldn't get the hang of breastfeeding at all, she's hopeless at it. So, it works. I think she's all a bit spoilt with the cuddles, the kids won't put her down so she isn't keen on the crib. Oh well, she's still pretty quiet most of the time, but did find her cry yesterday. We're all in love :)

    My dad has pee-ed me off again. I know sometimes I expect too much but bloody hell he irritates me sometimes. Fran called on wednesday night and spoke to his wife, briefly told her the news. he was out at the time so I sort of expected a phone call at least... I know actually wanting to come and see his new granddaughter is asking a bit much. but nothing. Oh well. it does make me sad though when I think that my mum would have sold her soul to the devil just to spend some time with her granchildren, but she couldn't. He has the chance to see them grow up and he can't be @rsed. Rant over.

  • hello, haven't been round for a bit (a day I think!!) did I miss anything?

    I have lots of marking to do and should have posted an ebay thing today, but I forgot till just now! plus got to do my Avon order and learn about taxes. hmmmm.

    and sort out bills do balance transfer? not sure. too confusing!!

    and I need to buy christmas presents. *cries*

    be back later xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Nevertheless she persisted.

  • Ah bless Toto, it sounds lovely having little Lily there-you're blessed.

    What can I say about your Dad? I try to not have any expectations about my Mom as I was constantly upset...it works-no expectations=never let down...

    Can't wait to see more pictures.
