    Felt weird without the thread but like the remove thanks button, in case we have any more rude interlopers like g'n'b's stalker last week.

    The question is, can we go back and find them, and unthank??

    I've made lots of cakes, so now need to face the kitchen and get it back under control. When I've done that, I'll eat and make my bed, and then that's it for the weekend!

    Well after 2 hours I've finally finished hoovering out OH's car!:eek: For years now he's been using his car as a store for all of his tools, his garden waste, and all sorts of rubbish, hence why it took me so long to clean out, as it was full of screws, leaves, sawdust, old receipts and parking tickets and all sorts! It now looks nearly like a new car inside, although I've only dash-shone the dash (not the car doors etc), and I'm too tired to do the windows now. My hand hurts! :o

    Feel the need for a long bath now to ease my muscles, plus I need to change the sheets in the bedroom. May go and see if I can find little black furry for a cuddle now before I get going again.

    Sounds like DH's truck! I inherited his old car and that was the same before i got my hands on it. Actually, thinking about it, I think there is stil grass in the boot!:eek: Is your DH a gardener by any chance?

    Well done for cleaning it out.

    Hugs FFP, you have been through a lot lately. How is OH after his scare last week? Is he ok? How are you coping with all the upsets?

    were back then are we... im so dumb couldnt work out how to do a yahoo thingy to enter the group and facebook was just as confusing lol...

    havent caught up on the thread yet but i hop your all ok TOOTS ALL MY FLYING'S DONE FOR THE WEEK...

    i did it all this morning before going and having a fight with the underlay paper stuff (the stuff you paint over) the neighbour telling me half my garden is in fact hers (yea right think we will just be seing about that) deciding that we are now not papering the kids bedrooms we will just paint them in some really vibrant colours and strategicly place wall stickers over the bits that have needed pollyfiller.

    realising that we in fact have no plug sockets in the cupboard/box room and therefore cant have the freezer in there or the dryer where there going to go i dont know (cant go in the kitchen there really is no room you can just about get the cooker and washer in there )

    realising that the carpets are comming on tuesday and unless we work untill at least midnight tommorow it isnt going to be finnished.


    on a positive side we went to the stock cars last night (go every week) it was a really good idea going we needed the time away and to just be normal not those crazy people moving into the crappy flat thinking they can get it decorated in a week with three little ones running round.

    Rach83, could you get an extension cord and put the freezer and dryer in there and and use the extension cord to plug them in to another room? You can use a multi socket plug thing so you only need one extension cord, and you can kind of fix it to the skirting board so you won't trip over it all the time.
    Hope this makes sense, I'm not explaining myself very well! Alternatively, you could just an electrician to put some sockets in the room!

    Oh dear, I just wrote a post but its dissappeared :confused:

    I've had a carpy day, haven't got off my behind, AF is visiting (finally) so I'm refusing to move. Boyfriend has gone to visit his parents for a couple of days as well, but my friend is coming over tomorrow til wednesday. So I suppose I better do something. Think i'll make myself some pasta for dinner first.

    Lots of love to all

    Hi Emily! How are you? Have you had a nice weekend?

    The remove thanks button is making my eyes go funny! It makes the thread longer!
