    delicate disposition! LOL

    Constitution of an ox more like. Think it's the 12 year old (dog not child - actually I haven't got a 12 year old child at the last count). Going to declutter the dogs innards and s/s something...probably my clinic...need to get it up and running again xx

    mumofjusttwo hope things improve soon, rosepink same for you and your hubs too.
    OJK hope little ones are better soon!
    Dusty ((hugs)) hope your DS has had a good birthday regardless of DS2s little slip up today. I doubt anyone would ever think ill of you for this, every child has their own mind and peer pressure added influences.
    pigpen, the foster carer should be doing her washing!
    mumofjusttwo no I don't microwave them first, I occasionally do them after if not totally cooked in the middle
    rach definately success! Dessert, ANGEL DELIGHT with cream on :D went down a storm last time I had friends over and had a wooops with the cheesecake (of course another suggestion, passion fruit one I had this week at a meeting way yum!) oh dear, I'm not very good at low cal ones :o
    juliejim hope you feel better soon
    Mudbath my pooch is the same, yuk!

    Washing, I do a lot but not as much as some members I don't think. Some weeks are more than others, depends how many times each child wets the bed and how far through it goes. I should count actually. I always mention it when getting gas/elec switches so they put the DD higher.

    Those who like sewing - is there somewhere I can get the little hooks that go on bras? My back was bleeding and now I know why, one snapped and the wire was jibbing me!

    Been to collect DS2s glasses, he was chaos as expected. We then decided (after visiting shops I needed to go to and not managing to get most of what I wanted) to take the boys out for tea which they really enjoyed, it had been a while. Going to watch the Terry Pratchett documentary then a little more studying. Oh I best switch the bread which needs freezing to there and get some other out of the freezer. Got my hairdressers (me time!!) appointment tomorrow, so need to check what time I booked that for, make sure there is nowhere else I need to be.

    Oh as for the list I did DS2s room completely, DS1s is clean but upside down! I've also saved some cash today, using some Boots points (I have over £100 worth) for boys PJ pants, they are sitting there unused and not earning interest or anything so think I should start using them and save the money!
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

  • Hi,

    Hope everyone is well & welcome newbies/rerturners. I've done laundry & errands & am of to bed now. Goodnight!

    PS. When I say errands I just mean things like ringing someone that I need to ring, going to town to get something, stuff like that

    RoseP - you're doing it again love - the negative thing - you're NOT causing offence. Enjoy your bath. And whilst your soaking there remember that there are people here who understand. I've done the agoraphobia thing and have come out the other side big time - rather too big in some people's view. People who know me today would never believe that I've been there...

    I'd certainly agree with that - RoseP don't do yourself down, we don't let toots (or anyone else for that matter) do that either! And yes soappie I think you're right on the last point...

    someone once said to me (someone who I would think of as very confident) that he spent most of his life dodging round his insecurities - I think that's true of most of us, one way or another.
