Evening everybody
wit40iwtwan - great to hear you have done your move and are getting settled in - hope you will be happy there.
lilysue - how nice to see you too - how is MIL - if its just for cleaning through the DW - or WM you could use soda crystals and vinegar - works really well.
ZCC72 - good to see you posting!
wendywitch I am sooooooo pleased for you honey - what a weight of your mind - what a mistake for them to make:eek: well done getting to grips with it and hope you will be able to sort out your arrears soon.
oh lil_me thats is just brilliant news - what a relief and an unexpected surprise.:T :T
sexy hope your cold doesnt develop into a nasty one - or at least it waits until after your interview!! all these classes from hell are good experience as you seem to mange to cope really well with them!
dusty honey - you are not lettting anyone down please dont you or anyone think like that - I said what I did because I felt we all needed to focus a wee bit more again and not leave it all to the weekend - the stars are not important in the grand scheme of things -they are a means to an end - to help us be motivated and achieve more.
You have loads to do this week so you have different flying to do and far more important than the stars (((hugs)))
natty oooh hello jet - you handsome thing - no hanky panky with BB on saturday now!!!:rotfl:
fedupandskint - you be careful and take it gradually!!!
pigpen I know you dont do mushy but am sending you huge hugs anyway and *less carp* vibes for the next 3 months! xx
soappie - I am thrilled for BeffyBoo and you - I have to admit I cried when I read your post - that is terrific news and NO she is not JUST a dog - she is a huge part of your life and its only natural to love and worry about her.
gtx well done with the knitting
rosepink - hope the shoulder gets easier if not go back to the doc
SGT ooh thats painful - hope you feel better soon
flower thast brilliant - maybe he realises now what he might have missed out on -I am so pleased for you all xx
well my afternoon visiting my friend A turned into 'you will stay for your tea' as well so didnt get home until 8pm!!! It was really nice and her hubby is a decorator and is going to do some work for me as and when I can afford it so I might just have the place looking respectable before my VIP visitors in august:rotfl: :rotfl: has only take me ??????? years!!!!:rotfl:
got my parcels posted when I was out
when I came back I remembered the washing and it is all dry and folded and ready for going away.
havent managed to do my kitchen as I had hoped but will be at home tomorrow so will get some more done.
a huge congratulations all round today - the new people have done well and the regulars have all made a good start to the week - loads of stars given out!! I hope we all mange to keep it up.

Evening all
I've managed to half do the kitchen - I'll sort a list in a minute. My kind friend and her hubbie went to Nan's with OH to get the oak sideboard and move it to my kitchen. It seems strange to be there but feels right too and I'm sure Nan would love the fact it is now in the our kitchen (even though it is going to be a shoe cupboard!)
Also tested DS1 on his french oral. Just going to wrap DS2 presents now and then see how I feel about doing anything else.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
toots - I've just realised... we're both behind on our lent figures! I've just been through my diary (several times) to check, and as it's nearly 5 weeks now we should be on 33 days (unless you are having a day off on Sunday it means that we do 45 days insted of 40 though). So I need to update, as I have actually managed to stick to the plan every day!
Froddy - stay asleep in the morning... and send whatever it is that is waking you up over here please!0 -
Toots and Greenbee, yes I think I might need to go back to the GP. The painkillers he gave me are making no difference, the pain is getting worse and I would like to know what I should be doing to make it better.
On the subject of sleep, that James Wong bloke had a hop pillow on his program the other week - the recipe is probably online on hte BBC website. The people who used it were insomniacs and it worked really well for them. The program is called Grow Your Own Drugs and it's on Mondays at 8:30. It's quite good actually.
Flying - wet washing/dry washing etc.
ETA:
Top news about BB Soappie, so pleased. Sorry to hear the user was a pain, hope that’s the last you’ll see for a while!
Hope things get better soon Pigpen, we are all here to support you if you need to talk or scream or shout or anything at all! Big hugs
Hugs Fedup, hope you manage work – be careful, hope you recover from your whiplash
Well done GTX on your knitting – it’s great! I need to get back to it when my shoulder is better
Hope Casleigh is ok, anyone seen her around recently? What about Emily, has she been on today?"Snowflakes are one of nature's most fragile things, but just look what they can do when they stick together."
