    It's taken an hour and a half to catch up with the thread! I thought I'd post my messages on here now as you won't see them if I put them on the old thread!

    Dusty, that is a very good question. The main reason we call is because we love God and our neighbours. Jesus commanded his followers to preach the good news of the Kingdom. (Matt 24:14; 28:19, 20) The good news he wanted us to share with others is that the terrible conditions we see on the earth are soon going to end. That’s why we call really, we have learned what the Bible teaches, and it’s so wonderful that we want to share it with others. PM me if this isn’t a full enough answer, or you can ask the JW’s next time they call on you.

    Greenbee, take care of yourself. It’s ok to feel down sometimes, just know that we are all here to listen and help if we can. Just do what you can cope with re flying/work/socialising etc

    Well done Carol on learning your vocab for French! Really sorry to hear about your friend in Ireland. That’s so sad. You’re right about seatbelts. I’m always really fussy about seatbelts, refuse to move the car if someone doesn’t have their belt on.

    Glad you had a nice evening Jo with your friends. Sorry you were so tired this morning.

    Restaholic hope your OH gets a new contract soon

    Kaz, I’ve never been to TKMaxx either! Don’t really want to either!

    Sarah, gald you made it up with your friend and auntie. I’m the same, hate falling out with people!

    Sexy could you post the pic on here too, cos I’m not on yahoo? Oh its ok, just seen LL has put it on Facebook! Thanks Lady Liberty

    Mozzy, sorry to hear DS has got chickenpox now

    Boddy, great plan to do the walking, I’m definitely going to try to do more walking and get fitter too

    Valli, you are right Philip Glenister is rather nice!

    Embb glad you found the money for the window, well done

    Hugs Princess Jane, it sounds like you are going to need them! 3 weeks is a long time to have your in laws to stay. Hope your chat works out ok.

    Well done Gertuedeana and Frodders on your stars

    Viv, hope work settles down

    Hugs Toots, you really must rest that’s what your body need. It’s been through a tough time with all the treatment, please take it easy. Glad you managed to get the cream on ok

    Well done MOAM’s DS for riding his bike so well!

    Vanilla, hope baby arrives soon!

    Nice to see you Denise, hope your hoarder to order challenge works out well. I’m quite curious about the steps, please let us know what they are as you do them!

    Katie, I had to help my Dandan scarify the lawn once! He had this thing that poked holes in the lawn and then you cover the lawn with fertilizing powdery stuff and it goes down the holes and makes the earth better quality

    Thanks for all your lovely messages about yesterday, I was so pleased with myself being able to cope all day. I was really really tired after, slept for 12 hours! Have a had a great day today too, all our friends went to the park and played rounders and had a barbeque. It was really fun. Lots of kids came which was really nice

    Am really really tired now. Going to do as much flying as poss tomorrow, really want to get ahead especially with the bathroom which I missed last week so will do as much as I can and have a bit of a rest too!

    I'm in!

    I have done a lot in the kitchen today anyway (Although my bl**dy flatmate then went and made mess!)

    So:

    Monday - Kitchen and dining room
    Level One
    Clear and wipe worksurfaces Done until flatmate got his hands on it
    [STRIKE]Scrub down the front of units and large appliances[/STRIKE]
    Level Two
    Wipe and replace small appliances
    Clean oven and hob
    Level Three
    Wipe the table and chairs... clean cloth if necessary
    Sweep and mop the floor
    Degunge the fridge!

    No extras for me with the kitchen, I'll be lucky if I get all the above done! I will do some in the morning, but I have a busy week ahead:

    Monday - drink after work
    Tuesday - movies
    Wednesday - monthly dinner with former colleagues (AKA Gossip Night)
    Thursday - movie with work friend
    Friday - movie

    I have an Unlimited Cinema card :D

    I will try and keep up with the Flying, but it could take second place to an unexpected social life :rotfl:

    How are you Pigpen? How's things going?

    'tis a pleasure as always!

    things are ok thank you.. children really settling.. I have loads of college stuff to get through but aim to crack on with that this week.

    I have no meetings for the children this week I don't think but I do have a governors meeting tomorrow.. oh poop.. thought it was Wednesday!! Oops!!

    Heard from DS1 yesterday.. Jacob is doing really well he is 12lb 7 now. ds1 was talking about what he wanted to get him for christmas.. (7 months and 29 days lol) Things are going well for them.

    My sister gets the results of her biopsy this week we hope so fingers crossed for good news there.

    The girlies made a start on cleaning their hovellesque room today.. it is still hideous but a fair bit better than it was! I may actually be able to face going inthere to do a bit myself now! They cleared 3 binbags of rubbish out though which is a start!

    Major aim for this week.. get the college stuff under control again!
