No doubt domestic goddess has already thought of this one.

I must stop being a cow. I must stop being a cow. I must stop being a cow.

If that ^^^ is the 102nd thing that you were wondering what I would think of ( sorry, I'm sure English is my first language but that sounds dreadful - feel free to correct ) then I can assure you that Lula disagrees entirely.

If a woman cannot occasionally have thoughts which veer slightly towards the bovine or feline .. then that's just too bad.

Have another mug of wine, or glass of tea, keg of cider & try to spend some fun time with favoured friend.

Is there any way in which he can help you ? Second thoughts - unless qualified I dont recommend that. I blame my low grade at business studies 'A' level entirely on the fact that a dear friend helped me to get the project finished on time.

She was taking art, craft & textiles.

It wasn't. I've only got to about number 43 so far. And ^^^ wasn't no. 44 either. It was something I haven't yet admitted to.

Not happened yet. The most exciting thing we've done is watched some "Big Bang Theory" (the nerdy sit-com, which I think is great) DVDs when I've found my way home (earliest has been 9 o'clock). It'll be gone 10 by the time I get there tonight - but that's fine because I left him throwing up this morning and have no desire to rush back to nurse him! He's blaming the water - which is a funny colour but not buggy as far as I know. [ETA (:D) The water man has just been in to buy ice-cream and cattle food, and he said it isn't buggy, and we agreed between us it is probably more to do with Somerset cider than Irish water.]

ACDC's "Thunderstruck" has just come on the radio. Great track.

The wind is picking up. By the time I get to take the dog out this evening I am going to end up looking like this :eek: The tart is not happy. Not only did Mama Cat growl at her so she had to vacate her basket to allow she-who-must-be-obeyed to take up occupancy, she's been spending her days adventuring or couch potatoing with favoured friend but had to come with me today so he can spend the day recovering (which hopefully he will have done by the time we return). We're going to be home late tonight, as I have the end of weekend paperwork to do, and then have to drive the lodgment to lovely boss man's brand new mother-in-law so she can take it to the bank tomorrow.

When we first had the post office agency, I would occasionally have to take the money home for safe-keeping. I once took €13,000 home in my handbag :eek:_pale_:eek:. For anyone from my village who has recognised me, WE DON'T DO THAT ANY MORE.

There was a meeting in the village this morning about our entry into the Tidy Towns Competition. We came second from last in the county.:o Not because the village was untidy, but because, well, it just has little going for it, really. I like it, though.

It's fairly quiet in here at the moment (can you tell?), so I suppose a good use of my wages would be to do some of that admin now. I don't waaaaaaant toooooo. But I will.

I have to go to short-fuse client tomorrow. Not much fun on the best of days, but with severe weather warnings for the morning, even the drive is going to be dodgy, as most of it is along a coast road (fabulous normally), which is going to be rather exposed to that there wind.

Good on you! Well done Wordsmith.

Wordsmith

Thanks, SW. Much appreciated. Although, er, what have I done?

savingwannabe

I meant well done on making yourself complete the admin. :rotfl::rotfl:

Having said that, you have still achieved a fair bit in your day - the meeting, looking after the pets and generally being yourself and cheering me up.

Wordsmith

I haven't started the admin yet. But I will. Any minute now.

I didn't go to the meeting as I was working. But I did, on lovely boss man's behalf (of which he has no knowledge yet) donate a box of tea bags and a jar of coffee for their chat after Mass. I think they were hoping that if it was in the church straight after a service there would be a captive audience ... but I know some people managed to escape.

Has Ireland recovered from its collective hangover yet? I was at the game on Saturday - bl00dy good game it was too.:beer::beer::beer: But OH is sulking a bit as he is Australian:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Sorry to hijack the thread. Everyone is nice on here. Does anyone have any tips on how to handle a bully? if so advice is needed on Startagain's thread. Thank you. swX
