    soappie - is it my imagination or has the reply button also changed?!

    Tag - so pleased things are working out for you. Hope you manage to deal with the spider though... I'd have to leave home if that happened to me :o

    Yet more stuff listed on freecycle while waiting for the first collection...

    ... and I'm suffering from the same humidity problem as soappie!

    Hot here too...

    I left a list for DS1 and he's done most of it, so will just finish off a few bits this evening or tomorrow, then work out if I get any stars! At least I am not working tomorrow.

    Holly - sad to read that, hugs for you and DS's.

    Is lil_me busy this week? I don't think I've seen her.

    hex - how is your foot?

    Hugs for lady-liberty - you sound like you had a fantastic time! Take it easy. Hugs also for Tootti.
    It is never too late to become what you were always intended to be

    Serena - Still sore but much better than it was, thanks for asking.

    Pants drawer sorted with all the too big stuffed removed plus I have also filled a charity bag from my wardrobe for collection tomorrow. I am not sure how sensible this is but I am getting rid of things as I grow out of them then I can't afford to put the weight back on. I have no excuse for a Floordrobe given that the wardrobe is virtually empty.

    Hugs for Holly - poor bunny!
    Congratulations for Froddy on completing your reports.
    Cooling soothing hugs to everyone who needs or wants one.

    Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for putting up with my selfish off-topic posts recently. Also, a big thank you for all of your vibes for my interview. Highlight below for results.
    I got the year maternity cover in a Year 4 class!
    Thank you all again for all of your support! Good luck to MsGnomey with your interview - hopefully our vibes will work for you too.
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    FFP... I'm not surprised you're furious... what have you done with DS1?!

    QUOTE]

    Nothing OH can deal with it cause I've taking enough from him to last a lifetime. Photographed the evidence for him to see what a mess was made. Ready to get my coat to be honest. I'm considering not going on holiday tomorrow and just letting OH and DS1 go to get myself a break.

    Greenbee - does your tip take paint? Ours doesn't and I am having to sneak it in the bin well wrapped at a rate of one tin a fortnight.

    Ours takes paint it has a big recycling bin the same as the ones you put glass in.

    Holly Hugs honey that's horrid. It was bad enough when we found ours had died through natural causes never mind that.
