  • Hypno well done with Egg you have attacked that with vigour.

    Your diary is so gripping, I used to feel I needed a life but I am pleased to see that your many readers feel the same so I don't feel so bad now lol

    Did you give DH an appropriate lecture re the motor bike and 'no wonder we are skint' comments? He gets brownie points for his attitude to work and commitment but he is so like my husband allowing you to work away behind the scenes making sure you are in control of every last penny to work yourselves out of the debt and pressures it brings with it and then he dares question the why and where's!!! My husband would say (once the lecture was over) 'oh I know your doing a good job, I appreciate what you do, I was just saying' :rotfl::mad:

    I do sometimes have moments when I say that I wish he took more of the finances over from me, but if the truth were said, I am a bit of a control freak, and so would interfere, double check, etc anyway, so I might as well just do it myself and not give him the stress of doing something he feels is difficult!

    Thats maybe why we all probably found this place, control freaks always seek a way :confused: and will not be defeated :confused:

    Being a control freak is a good thing isn't it? :confused:

    So is everyone having an egg based tea next tuesday as a forerunner for the Smashing party? I don't like yolks but will happily make an egg white omlette in your honour :j

    Control Freaks R Us.........:T

    Shelley, I've never seen the point of an egg white omelette.......the only thing egg whites are useful for on their own is for making meringues!!!
