    1. great about the lack of flooding

    2. hope dad does as he's told, slows down and gets better

    3. carp news about the piggies, not having got to the bottom of it all yet (no pun intended Beechie ;))

    4. glad the weekend meet went well :)

    5. what the hell is ironing :confused:;):D (joking, honest...mrs G-J will testify I do my share )

    catch ya soon hun :)

    Hi GJ

    Obviously you;re on the mend as you can;t escape the ironing anymore :rotfl::rotfl:. That's great to hear :T:T

    Are you back driving yet?

    As to dad slowing down - I think it;s a man thing - after all, didn;t a certain physiotherapist get rather shirty with you a while back? :rotfl::rotfl:;)

    Hope Mrs GJ is OK and the little GJ's are behaving themselves

    Hi Wol

    Nice to hear you had a good time....& that piggies OK too.

    Angiexx

    Hi Angie
    :hello::hello:


    How's you Hun - hope things are a bit better for you now as I know it was all a bit carp over the last few weeks.
    :grouphug:

    The weekend (while a bit "frantic" in itself with all the driving) has really helped break the pattern of the last few weeks and given me back a bit more perspective...it was nice to get off the roller coaster and have time to draw a breath.....
    ....and now that I'm back I'm not getting on it again for a while. I'm going to have a long hard think about what I'm going to do in 2010 to manage things better so it doesn;t all get on top of me like the last three months.

    .......and I think first on the list is not to accept any more intensive assignments to work with draining clients like !!!!!! boy and dippy tart :D

    If it means less money, then I'll have to redo the SOA....or look for "better" clientele .......or send the piggies out to work - Wol's eco-friendly lawn mowing and fertilisation services :rotfl::rotfl:

    Hi Skinty

    I'm feeling leftbout as I did Cambridge latin course with "Caecilius and Matella".......ditched Latin in preference to Music before we got to Virgil and Pliny :rotfl:

    I'm glad I'm not the only one - although I have to confess I have already got drawer liners ..:eek::cool:........and all my plug in air fresheners are lavender and chamomile ......and I even bought the piggies a lavender scented microwaveable warming cushion :o

    ........I still like tea tree, eucalyptus, cedar and citrus though .........so maybe there's hope for me yet.......I just hope I don;t start to like rosewater .._pale_.
