Congratulations to sarahshattered on completing your first week of work and doing it so well. How is your friend who had the court case the other day?

:j:j:j:j:j Thanks SexyM I'm really enjoying it. I certainly like delegating responsibility to MrSh!

My friend.... well, the case was adjourned, because he hadn't submitted his paperwork! :mad: She's struggling with the whole thing TBH. And from my POV I need to step away a little, because she's really not helping herself. I think that she really needs to get a grip or she's going to end up scr3wed. Anyhoo.... stepping away now.....

Wishy-Washy Wednesday - Master bedroom and Landing

DONE!!!:j:j:j

Right 2nd room completed now, 3rd lot of washing on and 2 lots of bedding on the line.

Lunch break soon to eat some rubbish and then crack on again about 1pm ish and will check back to see who is doing a HHC

Flying is keeping my mind from focussing too much on the break up but it isn't too far away. At least I am doing something and not sat crying all day

Pigpen - have you called the RSPCA about Hazel? They may well be rather more interested than the police and they can use the law to deal with this kind of thing if their investigations turn up decent evidence.

I hadn't thought of it... I'll ring them tomorrow.. thank you

Hello everyone..
I'm a complete disgrace to this thread:eek:

I've done so little round the house this past few days and I've got a very busy few days ahead this week. So I got up at 5.30am in order to get as much housework done as I could. I had a coffee first, planned what to do this morning and erm...fell asleep!

I am so far behind. I'll be in the thread and COMMITTED starting on Wednesday morning.

Good luck to everyone for the week ahead and I do hope people are enjoying the weekend.

Awww honey, you really need to step away from carrying over stuff and then feeling behind. Do a level 1 each day, that way you'll be achieving something instead of feeling bad. Each week everything comes round again. So once the day has gone passed, forget it till next week.

You need Toots' welcome PM.... It explains how we do what we do better than I can!

TOOTS CoooooooEeeeeeeee !!!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

froddington

Had a read through the thread......

Sunnygirl - thanks!

Toots - you're great! :A

holly - glad DS is ok today

fedup - more hugs; I know it's a cliche, but it does get easier in time. Try and keep busy and belt out some loud music (well that's what helped me!!)

Spirit - have a lovely time

I'm off to get the papers now. If anyone's interested, there's a free DVD of Withnail and I in the Times

Have spend the morning making Twinks with DD so we now have Cherry ones and Coconut ones and I made them gluten free so I can eat them too.

She is now selling them back to us in her cafe for the grand some of 20p each and £1 for cappucino and latte. I spent £2 yesterday and OH £2.80 today so we've told the little minx that she's going to have to start paying for her own coffee pods and ingredients or we'll be broke!!!

Am off to shower now then off to work so will catch up later with you all.
