Welcome back sexy and toots! Man? Me? na!
Oddjob...nice pome! (I know Pigpen - that was deliberate tho')
Grrr I am soo cross. I seem to be having a bit of an arthritis flare up so am struggling (it'll be stress) anyhoo, washed dried & put away tea pots at which point DS decided to have a tin of rice pud so I told him to wash up and he has refused.
So I have grounded him ... this means he might not bother coming in from school until 5 IF he can find someone to put up with him but he has NO CHANCE of going to GFs - I will ring them and tell him they are not to pick him up ... and I have changed his passowrd on the computer. So he cannot log on at all to any account.

Nicki I got my dehumidifier (it's a cracker too, £200 they are new!) off Freecycle, it might be worth asking as I had 3 offers when I asked for one
sexymouse welcome home
Pigpen thank you
greenbee your MACAW for next week is to work through your bookmarks and organise them properly
sexymouse welcome home, yes fire away, send the cards this way if you like, little sorters are waiting for their first deliveries (I must write them envelopes, DS1 says!)

Evening All,
Too tired to copy and paste the list
Cleaned spare room and sorted out a whole chest of drawers, so another 2 charity bags ready to be collected.
Put away washing - actually in wardrobes and drawers and not just on top of the drawers
Peeved off now, because I thought the curtain pole in the living room was looking a bit droopy, and the dog's just pulled it downTo late to get the drill out now cos I'm sure the neighbours won't like it. I hate the living room window being exposed lol. Oh well, that's another job added to the list for tomorrow!
I was dreading the kitchen coming up as I have to clean the fridge out completely :eek: That along with the oven cleaning is the job I hate the most lol.
Hope everyone has a good day tomorrow. Good night All x0 -
Welcome back sexymouse
Nikki, he sounds a right insensitive (insert appropriate word) Maybe if he actually sat down and thought about it he might realise it is him that is making you like this with him. ME is very hard to understand hon I know, it has taken DH a couple of years to get to grips with it but several of my friends can't understand why I am okay some days and bedridden the next.
Oddjob loved the poem
I'm off to bed to read my book as I have an earlyish start tomorrow

all this new phone chat, I am useless with them, give me a laptop and a basic mobile any day, suppose that is why I got my mini notebook and mobile BB, don't think I could cope with it on a phone....
Same as my hubby, he had a brick for a phone for years because he wouldn't learn how to use them and has never sent a text in his life...:rotfl: :rotfl:
Hope the little ones are OK and that DS has got over his stress of tomorrow... did they go to bed OK in the end?LBM April 2013 - £29,000.00Vanquis CC's PAID - Debenhams SC PAID - A+L OD PAID - Asda CC £783.75Barclaycard CC £1400.78 - BoS CC PAID - Freemans Cat PAIDF/D Loan & CC £1458.96 - Santander Loan PAID - Mum Loan PAIDRBS OD PAID - F/D OD £1026.52Weekly Grocery Challenge - £95.00 budget / spend £-0
