    thriftylady - glad you like it - you came out happier than me - I came out slightly satisfied, which is the most common apparently, means generally satisfied with most areas of like, but one of two areas could do with improving and making life changes - which I agree sums up my situation at the moment and what i am trying to achieve to improve certain areas - so am happy with that diagnosis.

    right off on nursery run, see you all later.

    Morning all
    hope all are well and happy:D
    Well I am average happy, whatever that means:D
    I am in a can't be bothered mood today, but still need to tackle whats left of the washing pile.
    Also need to go onto town.
    Hoping all my jewelry supplys will turn up as I am planning to start selling what I make and end up witha nice little earner.
    Compleately fed up with dd2yo still not sleeping through, especially now that baby does, unless she wakes him up of course. Although we managed to get her to stay in her own bed last night, which is a miracle in its self. I would love to have just one full nights sleep for once. I know she will grow out of it but sooner rather than later would be nice.
    I have signed up for my £1 sim with £20 credit thankyou martin for sticking it in the email:j and have also applied for a new bank account, just hope the credit check goes ok as my history isn't fantastic, although has been good for 2 years now has still left a nasty dent to my score.
    Might give up on town and washing and spend the day doing the garden as the weather seems ok, just the odd cloud passing now and then.
    right better get off my bum.
    hugs to all

    Morning everyone

    Didnt post yesterday as was helping out with the school trip and when i got home i was shattered but at least DS was very happy as i was able to go with him!!! Got to do housework this morning as none was done yesterday - meeting MIL in town this afternoon and then she is coming with me to collect the children from school (dont know what we will talk about!!!). Got a small amount of ironing to do and some sewing so will have to go and get on with that shortly.

    Hoping that everyone is okay

    Made a huge quiche - a salad - and about to bake a home made french loaf.

    That should feed DH and three DDs tonight while I am at the hospital.

    Need to iron my dads stuff. pop down to his house so I can pay his council tax, post book I sold on Amazon yesterday, look out docs for Dds ct scan tonight and catch the 1.30 bus so I can meet her at the station and then go visit grandad together.

    Dh has just told me he is away tomorrow and the car is being serviced on Friday so it looks as if I will get to know the bus service quite well!

    Hi everyone, greetings from OfficeLand

    I had a decent sleep last night, hurrah, took a sleeping pill, and feel like I could go and get another couple of hours. Not quite what I had in mind, but next time I have one I'll take it a bit earlier.

    Bargain Rzl, hope your hair turns out really well. It sounds quite a bargain. Have a lovely time at PP's house drinking tea out of a posh cup and saucer. You'll see her fab kitchen in the flesh too.

    I had my interview yesterday, but unfortunately left the logical, thinking half of my brain in the car and sat there talking a load of drivel, forgetting what they asked and basically emitting copious amounts of hot air for far too long. Do I think I got the job? I think not! It doesn't really matter - it's not like I don't have a job or anything, not to mention that fingers and toes crossed I will be leaving for England next year and embarking on a full-time university course (ambitious I know, but you only live once!). Let me know if you want to buy a house in N.Ireland, hee hee.

    I have to get on with some w*** now...boo hoo...

    Nuttyrockeress – Your post made me tearful, I hope it offers support to others. Do you know who the poem is by? A close friend recently lost a relative and is suffering at the moment, this might bring them some calm. Thanks for posting it.
    Hiya
    MushyPeas, I found the poem from [url=
    http://www.ifishoulddie.co.uk/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl?board=6 ] this site [/url] It helped me a lot when I lost dad at Christmas.

    So a very good morning to all!

    The clouds seem to be blowing away this morning to reveal some lovley blue sky (out of the office window......)

    I am a very happy bunny today. I made some Greek style yoghurt with my Easiyo and bought some in for what was supposed to be desert after lunch - i couldn't be bothered to walk over the building to put it in the firdge so decided to have it for breakfast instead!

    It was :drool: yummy!!! I added some strawberried in for good measure, i'm really very impressed. just need to learn how to do it with UHT now, couldn't quite grasp the method on the original thread :confused:

    Busy day today my boss is in the office (I only see him once a week) so I know he'll have loads for me to do!

    Twink - hopw you all well and ok!

    Looking forwards to doing the happiness test - should make interesting reading!!

    No little visitor last night either, hopefully scared him away by OH launching it out of the window!!

    Anyways enough!!

    Breakfast - Greek yoghurt and strawberries
    Lunch - Ham and cheese on brown
    Tea - i'm on my own tonight as i'm off to a friends and OH has SS tonight so is taking him for tea. May just have some noodles or something!

    Have a lovely day everyone!

    Hiya everyone :wave:

    A lovely sunny morning here today :D I've had my first builder chappie around already, to quote for repairing the road and also for completely resurfacing it in the future (c.£30k :eek:) Ah well, we don't want it adopted for sensible reasons, so we'd better get saving :)

    I have a load in WM needing to go on the line, more to go in the WM. DW needs unpacking and BM has just gone on. I've put some kefir in the bread today so I'll see how that goes. Did mammoth lots of ironing last night so I may tackle the place that DS1 calls his room!

    DS2 is at pre-school this afternoon, so may go on a bike ride. The shopping can wait - so, we haven't any carrots and cucumber - they'll have to do without when they get home from school :D

    Who's having fish pie today? Is it you PP? That's what we'll have I think - just fancy it. Yum :drool: Those who don't like it can have fish fingers instead!

    moggins - how's the 'giving up' going? Stick with it girl :) Do you get to see the book to choose your boobs? If you do, my friend is in there and apparently has the most requested boobs in the country :rotfl: However, most people aren't suitable for them unfortunately - she was very young, childless and still 'pert' :D

    Ok, things to do etc etc. ((hugs)) to all - and PP and BRzl, I will be keeping an eye on my ears, IYKWIM :rotfl:
