    Hi all

    I haven't done any flying again tonight..oops..but I have managed my MACAW & been early for work the last 3 days. I've got a long weekend off now, not back to work until next Wednesday so plenty of time to catch up on the lists. I popped into Mr M's tonight looking for Borax but couldn't find any, but did see soda crystals so got those instead :rolleyes: .. hoping I can trawl the threads to find a use for them now! Bit like a stardrops, I saw lots of people talking about it so got some but haven't really fathomed what to do with it yet!
    Off to catch up with the thread now..

    I'm back from my bath, I threw in a bath bomb that I found lurking in a drawer, plus threw out 12 other things, I'm getting down to bare bones in my room now, I'm not particularly a hoarder so I'm really squeezing to throw anything out. Found a couple of bits for the Charity shop bag aswell, clothes that were too big :T isn't that a good feeling.

    OH not here yet so I'm back on here, I'm gonna go and empty the WM and bung littleys uniform on a quick wash....then see what delights littleys watching on the Disney Channel, what's the betting it's Hannah Montana :rolleyes: :D

    Triker some people need a lesson on 'how to win friends and influence people' and I don't mean you :D

    Thanks everyone for your vibes for Beffy-Boo.

    I realise I'm being a really stupid old woman about this. There are so many of you that have gone through far worse with people close to you or, indeed, yourself rather than a flipping dog! And I realise that my family doesn't, generally, do ill-health unlike many of you - we seem to be blessed. Which is probably why I'm fretting.

    I will shut up now

    Old you may be :p but stupid you are NOT. Beffy-Boo is just as much a part of the family as anyone else, in fact some would argue a more valued member of the family. I would quite happily sack some members of my family today :eek: but a devoted pet? Never
    AnW'sMum - hope you got the photo done and the stuff to the recycling - give her a black eye that will shut her up - not that I condone violence you understand but some people just........need it!:rolleyes: :rotfl:

    Awwww thanks, the kids had a great time and the photographer was great with them, SIL has deigned to ask me back to help choose one of the pics. Because of the later kick off the tip had shut before we could get there so I shall have to try again when I go to choose the pic. Mmmmm black eye ..................... lol

    HShugs11.gif Toochoosey and everyone else

    I've done my tidying of the Corner of Doom. I should be happy, and I was feeling very happy and satisfied, altho I need to hang up a few clothes which I've put on the bed, until I noticed that the door to my shoe cupboard (which is also in said Corner of Doom) is soaking wet. Opened th door and th inside of the door is covered in white mold. It's huge and looks like it would dissolve into hundreds of spores if you touched it. It's really gross. Everyday I find another patch of mold in this horrible flat. One day the whole building will come crashing down as it's all rotting away. bigcry.gifbrickwall.gif :mad: thumbsdown.gif rant.giftantrum.gif

    I really want to th_vacationsmilie.giftothecastle.gif

    Why didn't I marry for money???? :rolleyes:

    c)digging the veg patch
    d)leaning over DS3 bed whilst he read
    e)my first set of tennis on the wii

    Apprentice tonight so just going to try to finish the ironing before it starts.
