    Where is rosepink? Is she ok?

    She was on holiday last week, not sure when she is due back.

    Kitchen all done. Just making a cuppa then I'll do a HHC in DS1 room before I phone the vet.

    Toots - I've tried the drain man but he is out of the office, I've left a message - must go out in the rain in a minute to see what is happening, it is not really heavy so should be ok

    Funny you should mention Rosepink I've just had a text from her & was coming on to tell you she says 'Hi' to everyone :rotfl: She is on holiday, having a good time & will be back at the weekend.


    I am pottering.....the plughole broke in the kitchen sink yesterday...came away from the waste pipe....so water leaked everywhere :mad: It is a double sink with pop-up plugs......you wouldn't believe the trouble I have had trying to find a replacement....why do they have to keep changing designs of things :mad:

    Dusty cuddles for pusscat...that does seem expensive :eek:

    Hugs to all xx

    Dusty - strokes for your poor baby, and :eek: for the cost.

    I have finished the proposal so good luck vibes for that please - not a lot of money about at the moment and this would keep me busy a couple of days a week until January so fingers crossed. Still need to do the article but bored and cold now.

    I am going to do HHI just to warm the place up abit before the boys come home.

    14.20-14.50 anyone? pre school run HHI or HHC.

    Not much more on my list to do. WM is playing up again I'm sure it just does it to get at me. Phoned the Drs for more meds I need to phone again tomorrow to speak to the Dr, phoned focus nurse she's phoning me back about a home visit after she has spoken to my Dr. I have sorted OH's birthday cake for after dinner. Off to hoover the hall and fight with the WM again.

    Hi guys,
    I did all my cleaning yesterday and plan just to keep on top of things for the rest of this week, so will mainly be a lurker!
    Hope all are ok.
