Just popped on to say hugs & prayers to Diva, Tristan & his family & Jackie O & her family it's so awful to be going through all this.

Got my jobs done this morning so the house is looking spick & span unitl the kids arrive home :eek: :rotfl: The bolognese is cooked having simmered away since this morning it smells luvverly. Just debating now whether to read for an hour, do some cross stitch or stay mooching round here Think the cross stitch will win I'll put the radio on so I can listen whilst I'm stitching.

Have a good afternoon everyone

Afternoon peeps,

Pay Day today!

Cold and very windy here i will be sporting a full thermal outfit tonight at training.
Been ebaying like mad to try and shift some stuff before we start to pack for the move. OH will be back next week:j and maybe going on standby before he gets moved to the next rig. This would be great timing as we could get everything sorted for the house while he is here and have blooming good clear out too. We will be on first name terms with charity shops shortly!Lol It's quite hard to sort out a house purchase when you have no prior experience and your OH is in the middle of the sea:rotfl:

Hugs MSD and Jackie O, a difficult time but we are all thinking of you.

Hugs and smiles to all. OS today has been jam rolls:rolleyes: and will be a storecupboard challenge for tea (beans on toast!) Want to save as much as possible up to our move day so we have cash for any hiccups along the way. You know what Solicitors are like.

Anyway enough rambling..going to look up Insurance quotes zzzzzzzzz

Happy Birthday to Halight and Smoky!

Mummysaver....I have a girl cat too, nicknamed "fatcat" as she is a big old girl:rotfl: .....she was having a problem with her tray too and kept weeing over the side of it:rolleyes: .
I ended up buying a jumbo cat tray:o ....she doesnt wee over the side anymore but still kicks litter over the side when treading it.....oh and it is a bit like having a North Sea Ferry in the corner of the kitchen:rotfl: its rather large.

I'm confused now.....only one thread when i started reading but two when i was starting to type

Aussielass - Can only see one pic of your gourgeous grandson by the xmas tree
Redruby - A big woop woop from me to DD :j
Bethebee - Don't forget the plastic decorating sheets. As for red shade are we talking plain red ?
Trazy - :beer: Welcome
smokybabde - Happy birthday :beer:

Spike's woke BRB

Plastic sheets to go on top of a tarpaulin yup, lots of towels yup, plenty of sheets yup, brandy for me yup, smelling salts for Sil2b yup. Think that's the lot unless anyone can add to my list.
Yes I'm looking for a plain red shade, DD2 wants all primary colours but most stores think that girls rooms should be pink, pink and more pink.
I did find a company that had 2 for £9.99 but wanted £8.50 p&p, might just get a white one and paint/recover it. A bit of OS crept in there.

I was in a Wetherspoons on Tuesday and drank IPA. It's not my fav by any means and I'd have rather had a lager/cider after a few but it was 99p a pint!!!:beer: :j

Oh, go on, I'll let you off then! Although it was probably Greene King (there are other - much nicer - IPA's available) and therefore a real ale.... We pay about £2 a pint round here on the blowy Lancashire coast.....not sure what the beer prices are like in Welsh Cardiff....as long as there is something other than Brains OH will be happy!

Afternoon All!

Sorry I was absent yesterday - woke up with a full-blown migraine :mad: (so much for trying to hide the headaches from DH...) so spent the day in bed. Did manage to put on SC about lunchtime with Turkey Chasseur in it, and put on a loaf in the BM, but then back to bed again until DH came home. The bread didn't rise well (my first negative result from the BM ) and then I made a banana loaf cake in the evening, which also didn't rise (used the recipe before and it worked perfectly), so not a very positive OS day yesterday :rolleyes: .

Back in wo*k today, although I still don't feel great - don't want to take too much sick as I had 2 wks off with the M/C and need some time off for appts in th next couple of months. Real struggle today though - brain feels stuffed with spiky cotton-wool, IYSWIM. Having a bit of a prob with one of the managers too, but trying not to let it affect me too much, as I could so easily burst into tears today .

Pasta & Sauce tonight for tea - nice & simple as I am supposed to be going to an exercise class, but not sure if I feel up to it so may cancel. Feels naughty not to go though - that'll be 2 weeks with no badminton and no classes - and yet my foot STILL giving me gyp...I can't win!

:hello: Hi Yorkshire Celt! I'm struggling with depression too, but can't be 'officially diagnosed' or medicated as they won't let me have any more IVF treatment if I am. Being here is such a help, and everyone is so kind, I hope it helps you too!

ISOM & Snowy - Another one here who has lost it and put it back on again! Although I am fairly fit, I just love to cook...and to eat of course! Also always been a 'comfort eater' so trying times bring out the worst....

AussieLass - I loved As Time Goes By - was sad when the last series ended. It is such a nice 'gentle' comedy, and Judy Dench and whats-his-name as both great actors!

MSDiva - so sorry about Tristan - Can't find the words (if there are even the right words) but thinking about you at this so difficult time.

(((HUGS))) to everyone.

FE

OOHH - Almost forgot - Birthday wishes to Halight & Smoky - hope you enjoyed your days and have nice evenings!

Thanks SunnyGirl. I'm used to headaches and sicky feelings around TOTM too, but I'm mid-cycle at the mo' so I *shouldn't* be feeling like this....still don't think my body has settled back down properly after the M/C yet, but don't know why it is taking so much longer after this one than it did the last time......All very frustrating!:mad:

Ah well - 10 mins to go then I can get off home :T
