    Zoe - strength for tomorrow vibes heading your way
    Triker - enjoy your weekend
    Sexym - try and take it a bit easier love - don't burn yourself out
    Quillion - top news about the job!

    Healing vibes to all those in need - especially Mudder's DS, Rach's FiL and G&B's little one - hope she's doing OK.

    OK, I need some of those good 'ole flylady vibes please. DS and DiL were supposed to exchange contracts today but there was a snag - one of the mortgage offers in the chain was not completed. We would all so like exchange (with completion on 30th September) to happen tomorrow (Friday).

    Vibe it so if you have a moment...

    I got the job Thank you so much for the wishes xxx

    I am going to be a Trainee Dispenser in the Pharmacy attached to the Doctors.

    Thanks again xx

    Congratulations! When do you start?!

    Toots - I'm glad you enjoyed your trip into town, but Jo is right... you need to be careful. I know it must be tough having to rely on other people for this kind of thing, particularly as you're so independent, but please don't do it again

    Mudbath - are you OK?! Your current behaviour is very out of character :p:D Hope DS is sorted out soon.

    zoe - I'll be thinking of you tomorrow, and will be there with all the other flyladies looking out for you (can I not be next to jinky though please... I'm worried she might over-react and try to punch someone ;):p)

    Garden/landscaping people came round today to have a look and are going to quote for the initial work. Garage has been pretty much emptied into the shed. Lots of stuff posted on freecycle (they asked me to make fewer posts in future and put everything in one post, but it NEVER goes if you do that... anyway, hopefully most of it will be collected tomorrow morning.

    Lots of other stuff done too, so I need to find and update my list...
  • aw Quillion honey thats fantastic news HScartwheel.gifHSstars.gif I am sooooooooooo pleased for you Congratulations xxxxxHS08.gif thats lovely job to have and I am sure will be interesting too xxxxxx

    Jo why do you think i didnt tell you i was goingHS1bouncing.gif

    kazm well done hun for getting stuck into that room - aagain! I hope little DD has realised what she has to do in future.

    carol hi sweetie - thanks for the pm - i will answer in the morning when I am more awake xx

    MrsChoas - yes the thread can be very sidetracking and addictive so be warned :rolleyes:

    zoe
    ....she now adds onto the end of her pray 'oh and good bless tootles cus even though she is sick she makes mommy keep her house clean. Amen' my little angel!

    that is so cute - i was laughing and crying - what a wee star she is - a credit to you! Will be thinking of you tomorrow and right there in the front row holding your hand.

    ok must go to bed before I turn into an ugly sister - or is it the pumpkin- whatever!!!

    Night night all
    Love and hugs to everybody especially lady L, Pigpen and family and Zoe

    toots xxxxxx
    Peace will be mine

    just saw this so need to do it now as i might be too late in the morning!

    To whom it make concern - please be advised that if you dont get your nether regions into gear tomorrow friday and get the exchange sorted out (with completion on the 30th of course) you will incur the wrath of our dear soappie who i might add is a formidable lady in a skirmish but given that it is concerning her DD and Dil's new abode and her own sanity you would be well advised to buy a flak jacket sharpish - and she has the backing of a private army of equally determined and forceful flyladies.
    You do not want to incur our displeasure!
    So do the honourable thing and get the papeerwork sorted ther's a good mortgage person!

    Humungous positive vibes for exchange and completion as required soappie - everything crossed for success xx

    love and hugs
    toots xx

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Sorry I shouldn't laugh but I found this so funny! Especially the bit about the sonic screwdriver - is he Dr Who's lovechild? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I wish :D although i think he would love that too, he's completely obsessed and has been since he was 18 months old. All he's talked about today is when we went to the Dr Who Exhibition.

    Congratulations Quillion well done :beer: when do you start?

    Good luck for tomorrow Zoe, we're all here supporting you.

    Fingers crossed for Soappie too.

    Evening all

    Back from a fantastic evening at my friends. We all had such a laugh, one of our friends has cancer of the eye and had her eyeball removed this summer and another is going through a very messy divorce but they were both so full of life and laughter.

    Mudders - I hope your DS is ok and that the pain has subsided and you all get some sleep

    Rach
    - I hope the op goes well for FiL tomorrow

    Quillion great news on the job, well done

    Jinky - any news on your friends DH? More healing vibes

    Soappie - contract signing vibes winging their way south

    Boddy I hope your GGD is doing well

    Off to bed for me.
    The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair
