    Pigpen-hope DS gets his house sorted soon.

    Well DS doesn't seem to have had a bath when he was there or done his teeth :eek: DH and GF now have a cat. Not helping DS and his allergy to cats :rolleyes:

    Although I can be in the same room as him I did want to kill him on Sunday ;)

    Toots - you have an avvie!

    Serena - I'm much better tonight thanks, France mid August so a bit yet. Veg not doing good here. Pots, the ones I've dug are fine, runners smothered in black fly and not flowering well, lettuce all gone to see, peas failed dismailling- corn looking good, leeks to be planted out asap but don't think I've got enough

    Washing on the airers, just going to put a wash on for tonight and then watch a bit of tv.

    One of my bestest friends coming for a cuppa in the morning which will be lovely, need to get up at a decent time to make a cake or scones or something.

    Magnificent Monday ~Crabby kitchen! DONE :j:j:j


    Five things this week are....

    1) clean car inside and out.
    4) spend one hour in veg patch.
    5) price up DS's bedroom.


    Just an update on list.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    Evening everyone. Well DD has been diagnosed as having mild swine flu and given Tamiflu. She rang me at work this morning. She said NHS Direct were not helpful and had to wait for call from gp after she rang them. Cost her £6 in phone calls. I think the number should be free. I have no symptoms but informed my boss anyway. Said that if I developed any I would not go to work. Not going to the hospital this week Im being cautious.

    I have just about finished the kitchen but Im ready for my bed so will finish it tomorrow.

    Vanilla Hope your engagement ring turns up.
    Froddington Happy Birthday :bdaycake:
    craftyscholar Well done on the 75%
    Natty Hugs.

    Welcome to all the newbies.

    Sorry Dusty, it was just that you said you could see the BD out of the window! I thought you meant a literal dog! Glad I made you laugh tho! Hope you feel better soon

    Hugs Natty, have plenty of rest and fluids, hope you are feeling better soon. Your OH sounds a big insensitive, perhaps he was trying to reassure you. I agree with SS, get into bed and he will realise you really mean it when you say you feel really ill

    Helen glad to hear that DD managed to be so good today

    MOAM glad you’ve heard when DS’s op will be, hope it’s nothing serious. How’s your rellies knee, is it any better? Are they having a nice trip?

    Toots, I love your avatar

    Holly, hope your migraine goes soon. Your college sounds just like the one I went to, your description brought back all the stomach churning – I hated it there horrible horrible place

    I've washed up, hung out the washing, watered the plants, and done some general floor decluttering. Done level one on the kitchen list

    Poor DH is really upset this evening - I thought he was going to cry earlier. His hedge trimmer is broken and he had his eye on one on ebay but he forgot to bid on it in time and only went online after it had ended. There are others available I think, but not as good, or too expensive. He's not normally upset by things like that, a bit annoyed with himself maybe but he gets over it quickly. I think he's overly tired after the weekend, but I'm going to keep an eye on him. Hope he's not going down with something. I'm not used to him being the miserable one! Poor thing

    Hi everyone.

    Not posted my 5 things to do this week yet so here it goes:

    1. [STRIKE]Go for a run.[/STRIKE]...done tonight.
    2. Half hour filing
    3. spray mouldy bits around the bath with mould spray (to be done tomorrow so we are not in to breathe in the bleachy fumes).
    4. catch up with the ironing
    5. List 2 things on ebay.
    Our poor little puddy cat, Monty, has had to go to the vets tonight. The side of his face all swelled up and when I got home from work it was dripping blood and pus. Urgh! Turns out he's been fighting with Elvis (the neighbours cat) and one of the punture wounds got infected. So he's got antibiotics for the next 12 days after having a shot of the AB's at the vets and a shot of puddy cat paracetemol to take his temperature down. Poor little sausage. We've got to go back in 10 days to get it checked and for his booster jabs. So that's £60 so far and more for the jabs next week. Good job I worked today and I'm having my friend's LO on Wednesday...need all the money we can get this month.

    Hope everyone is all OK, I've just not had chance to read the thread and I'll be off for an early night soon so probably won't get to it either. Will try to keep up a bit more tomorrow. Hugs all round for those who need them and also for those of you who don't.

    See you in the morning. x
