DH finally sorted out the kitchen door which wouldn't shut properly, which meant chiselling out the doorframe a bit more, so when he'd finished I got the vacuum out and vacuumed all downstairs instead of just the bits. That will save me a job in the morning

Woah Valli, just looked at those pics! WHAT A MESS! Didn’t they think to tidy up before the estate agent came! LOL! It looks a little like my house right now...

Flower – tell them how you want it packed and they should do it properly. I’m surprised they don’t do it properly in the first place, but if they are going to pack they should do it as per your requirements! We always did as the customer asked!

Ah yes, but when you're not selling, you can live how you like can't you - well, maybe not how you'd like if you've got a DS like mine working in the kitchen with his friend on their bikes coz it's raining... :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:I'd love mine to be tidy, but is more like the pics too at the moment - and it was spotless yesterday????

Yes, you'd think they'd know, but it's like they've been taught and are determined to do it opposite to what they know... just cram everything in, shampoo in with cheese, uncooked meat in with ham, etc... I just go, oh, thank you, but I'll do it - I'm really fussy, give them a look and they just seem to go... :rotfl:I am turning into one of those grumpy old women they have on the tv (I love watching those, and the grumpy old men ones...)

soappie wrote: »

Dusty and Rach and Mozzy and Rose etc. - I'm so glad I'm not the only one that has the conveyor belt and bag packing OCD. I guess it's akin to Valli's matching pegs.... I think I understand her better now :rotfl:

Noooooo, I'm not like Valli...... there is a reason to pack properly, no reason to use the same colour pegs.... ~~~~~goes away mumbling about how she's not like valli, although she loves her dearly, the woman is obviously barking, coloured pegs, ironing tea towels, see, madness, I will convince myself I'm not barking too....~~~~~~

Well, I didn't get round to doing any work after all.... bad case of CBA'dness I think

I am going to sit in front of the TV doing the accounts I think (haven't got to get up then, method in my madness, ha ha)

Not been to good this last two weeks i think i might have diabetes having some tests done, i had it when i was pregnant with littlies so it probably is. have been going to bed at 8 so have not been on here. Feeling totally exhausted needing to pee all the time .
DHs practice is feeling the pinch lots of promised work but non materialised yet he might have to make redundancies that makes me very sad theyve all got kids.perhaps some flylady work vibes for Dh so that wont have to happen i cant bere to think about what they would all do . leg pretty carp feels really tight just onemore thing in a long list
im really sorry i feel like a right moaning old cow i suppose ive got to off load it somewhere
i have managed to make my easter tree cake stand carrots and decorated chocolate bars for easter doing baking tomorrow after a lay in i hope so lots of things off my long list
how are you is treatment going well i think i read you were having some more i just havnt been able to keep up and feel really guilty if i missed anything important

Toochoosey – can’t believe they are firing so late. We walked across the bit of the range that is open on weekends on our hol….the bit with St Govan’s chapel..it was nice as it meant we could join up the bit of coast we’s missed when doing the whole path.

.

Afraid, I'm only catching up from last night, have hoovered, and cooked beef stew ( in the slow cooker)
Yes they normally fire quite late during the ealry part of the week just not on weekends!!! but you do get used to it, like a ticking clock!!!!

Managed to brave Meadowhall,boys in tow,wasnt too bad ,dropped DS2 at Games Workshop for 2 hours,took LO to play area £2.50 for an hour:eek::eek: he was supposed to stay in the under 3 area ,,no chance he is a big boy apparently:rolleyes: straight to the top of the play equipment and it was soooo high:eek:

Quick trip into Primark I needed a couple of tops and got DS1 some new swimming shorts he has outgrown his.


Everyone seems to be flying well today.

How is the walking coming on Rosepink? well done you on the washing up.

Need to go wrap DS2s presents once he is in bed..... I will have 4 teenagers on Sunday cant believe he will be 13.....at least I still have 1 LO.

Hugs to all who want or need them.
