    We'll miss you!!!!! :beer:

    Got another headache coming on, must be all this work I'm doing. I can't cope seeing all these lists, they're making me feel bad :rotfl:

    Um done some washing up, sweeping floor next.
    Fluttering about an inch off the ground, I may fly properly one day and soar in the clouds!

  • Haven't even been able to pop home and make sandwich as had to go and cover another office at short notice- will make sandwiches on evening/morning from now on instead of sitting with coffee watching tv till last minute!!

    Mudbath - very sorry to hear about !!!!!cat
    Orkneystar - totally agree they grow up so fast
    Gerturdeanna - use Mr Muscle for my oven - may not be very green but works wonders then brillos and jiff or should I say ciff?! I try and wipe glass front whilst it's still warm after each tea and that takes most of it off. Only problem is them you can see how grimy the racks are becoming! I then stategically place the teatowel over the oven handle to cover it up until I can summon enough 'get up and go' to tackle the racks!!!!

  • I have to be honest, I've had a couple of days feeling cr*p but I hope to be back on it this afternoon. I have a midwife appt at 3.15 then I'll be tackling things when I get back from there. I have no hope of reading all the posts from the last two days so I apologise if I've missed anything!

    By the way - bought my first ever bottle of stardrops today. Have read the back religiously so I know what I'm doing!!!

    Morning all, I've been fairly rubbish this morning. All I've done before going to work is:
    Start DW
    SS kitchen
    Cleaned hob
    Scraped of worst bits from slow cooker and dish used last night that's been soaking, then cos I was lazy I added them to DW!
    Aired bedroom whilst in shower
    Made bed

    Sat at work now, should be working but been trying to catch up on posts, keep having to minimise when someone walks past!! Didn't make lunch either, but will nip home at lunch to make a sandwich.
    I know what we are having for tea aswell fishcakes, potatoes, carrots, peas and parsley sauce, though DD1 will probably complain as it involves mashed potato again - her worst- she is 19 though so she can either like it or lump it!


    I'm at work too, we're having fishcakes tonight too (meant to have them last night but no tuna :o ) got a complaining teenage daughter and I'm in Yorkshire (though east side) .

    ETA - Tilly - you can do my oven if you want to :D

    I'm ignoring that :p

    Orkney enjoy the LO, I wish I hadnt had to work when mine were smallm my Nan used to make me feel gulty muttering this

    I hope my children will look back on today
    And see a mother who had time to play.
    There will be years for cleaning and cooking
    But children grow up while we're not looking.
    Dusting and scrubbing can wait 'till tomorrow
    For babies grow fast we learn to our sorrow.
    So quiet down cobwebs and dust go to sleep
    I'm rocking my baby and babies don't keep

    Well, my babies are nearly grown, and now Im chasing the cobwebs and dust, it was worth it ((hug)) for you

    I degreased the bath, S&S'd the bathroom while I was there, and cleaned the watermarks off the shower door, oh, and put new loo rolls on the holder... why is it Im the only one who knows how to do that???

    Chilli is SC-ing well, gonna make the bread to go with it in a mo, WM is sploshing, its right in the way sitting in the middle of the floor, but its that or not use it :rolleyes: I'm having a coffee and a choc mousse :D
