    Thanks Soappie!:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

    They've MOVED;)

    I liked it when they were little and I was in charge :rotfl:

    Anyway that's another job crossed off the 'Summer Project List'. I never knew I had so many white, single, sheets! (I thought I had 2 - clearly I have 6!)

    I can get rid of DS's gold sheets (one chewed by gerbils, one stained with blue paint by ex OH2 when he 'rushed' the decorating) :T

    ok, filled the sink with hot soapy water and did the first load of dishes, put the spare room bedding in the washing machine, decluttered the toys and the small boy from my living room, and started decluttering the kitchen....

    Good morning folks.

    What a lovely day! I intend to spend time out in the garden today- I may even do a bit of weeding.

    Woke up really early and couldn't get back to sleep; so got up and sarted flying. Consequently, I have only the fridge to do from yesterday's list and outside of the front door from today's. It's a lovely feeling that most everything is clean and tidy.

    Happy Birthday mOZzy

    Well back to flying. Must get dressed and hang the washing out.

    Morning all, I see I wasn't the only one who had a bad night. Hugs all who slept badly. I was up til 1am, I just couldn't sleep as was feeling very depressed and in the end I got up, got dressed and went and sat in the truck so I could cry without waking DH. Got some sleep in the end. Feeling a bit bleurgh today. The trouble is I can't really tell him why I feel this way at the moment as his behaviour has been upsetting me, and altho we've talked about it before nothing changes and I think I just need to accept him for who he is. I need to stop feeling so frustrated by him and just let him be, and deal with my feelings on my own.

    Going to try to do some flying but might go back to bed for a bit.

    Dolly, enjoy your time with hubby while DD is away

    Welcome Lo-Lo and Hope

    Hugs Lav

    Jinky hope you feel better soon, take it easy today and make sure you drink lots of fluids today

    Kitchen finished star please Toots - good to see you back by the way.

    Probed on reasons for garden centre, it has a thorntons and a toy shop :rolleyes:. No chance :cool:.

    Living room next. 11.30-12.00 anyone?


    Rosepink - I think you are right. You married him because you loved him, not to mould him into something he isn't? Try focusing on the things that you do love/like/adore about him rather than focus on the niggles.

    :rotfl: Hex - what a suspicious mum you are!

    am exploring options of going to London next week BUT am trying to marry up hotel locations with Palladium Location (which is near Soho/leicester Square from the looks - so north of the River?) DS wants to come to London but doesn't want to go to the theatre? What do I do with him for the evening?
