Coffee (thanks AnWsMum) and lunch time!

Then time to pack everything up I need to post today as I was too ill to do it on Saturday. Then pay bills, pile of DPs that wouldn't get paid otherwise. He just had the nerve to ask who I am writing cheques to from his account....if I didn't do it the bills wouldn't get paid!

It never rains but bluddy pours in my life.

My father has just phoned to say one of his cousin's has died on Saturday aged 62, and unexplained death, the immediate family are in pieces, I just don't know what to do to help them at this moment in time.

Just so so sad.

:mad: I'm reet fep up decided to wash my pillow, just went to drag it out the washer and it's covered in carp as is the rest of the wash. It's all the gunk that collects around the edge of the seal. Had thought the washer was pretty clean but this shows it ain't. Was going to wash the rest of the bedding but will run a boil wash instead once the pillow is washed AGAIN grrrrrrr

I'm in too! DS2 woke up at 4 am and wouldn't go back to sleep, so we've had a very early (but not at all productive) start to the day.

So far, I've emailed Mom to ask her for the addresses of family members who have moved, cleaned the litter box, taken all the rubbish out to the bin and dragged the bin to the street, fed the boys their breakfast and assembled a crustless quiche lorraine (it's baking now).

I'm pleased that today's assignment is the kids' room, as OH and I were just discussing the need to sort through the boys' wardrobe. They have so many clothes! :eek:

HELP!!!!!
I'm stuck on ideas for DS2 for christmas. You'd think I would know what kind of stuff to get a 2 year old, thing is he already has most of it passed down from his big brother.

Any ideas?


ETA Sorry to hear your news kaz, its never easy but it does get better. (((HUGS)))

Morning everyone.
DH has put me on enforced rest...yuck!
Had to rest all weekend too but thought I'd be able to potter today.
Thankfully, cause its children's rooms, I can get them to sort them out when they get in from school. I'll wash the bed linen later in the week when DH allows me to do something.
I'm not really having a good time, but it's lovely in the conservatory.
I'm waiting for the coal man to deliver some coal and I've just bought a paper bickette maker off Amazon...that should keep the kinders busy!

Sorry to hear your news kaz...
and to all those who are sick, stressed or just plain fed up...big hugs....

Feeling a little better, was sick again earlier but have managed a dry weetabix so have a little energy. Managed to do the dishes and S&S the kitchen.
LO has also managed some food and is resting on the couch. My dad went and picked up her antibiotics, glad the pharmacist was on the ball as the doctor had prescribed 5 times the recommended dose:eek: She phoned the doctor and sorted it out no problem but that is a huge mistake to make!
Think i'm going to go for a bath to try and warm myself up, is freezing here.
