    Morning all!
    Hi Snowy Owl - hope you got back to sleep. I had a bit of a rough night too but luckily did manage to get back to sleep. I threatend myself with the ironing:eek:
    Apple mint - HM cheese? And you work! Wow!!! How on earth do you manage it (Lol, I wouldn't even know where to start with making cheese)
    PP - I hope it goes well for you today at the hospital. Bacon rolls sound lush :drool: :drool:
    Ageandjo - I once saw a life coach. She had been my consellor and then trained as a life coach - i found what she gave me from this perspective extremely helpfull. Funnily enough I was thinking this morning of contacting her as it does help to get a top up (help to refocus).
    Queenie - maybe a voice type programme would help you with getting on the rebounder? You could shout what you want to post while you boinged :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
    Hi GR - hope you manage to get loads done today so you can relax with OH when he's off.
    Catowen - might sound sad, but I couldn't wait to read through your post to see if you'd done your ironing. At least I'm not alone on this one! As you've said before it will only crease up by the time you get to the other end, so maybe to save yourself the stress it might be better to stop worrying and see if you can borrow/buy a travel iron? That way if it really needs it at the other end you can do it - if not you've saved yourself heaps of time and stress. Not very MS I know - but it'll save you from needing another holiday to recover from the stress of this one.....
    Michelle - sorry to hear you're having such a rough time of it at the moment. Have you considered trying a different anti hystamine? Some people respond better to different types. You must be exhausted. Do your best to take care of yourself and bump x
    TM - you are going to be sooo popular with your lot tonight. Bet you can't wait to see OH face when he sees the new TV!
    Morning also to Twink and Rchddap & all who follow (and those who probably post before I finish writting this)

    As for me - shattered after last nights party and debating whether it's worth carrying on as it messes with my bodyclock so much. Lots of other reasons I should give up too....:rolleyes:
    Going to sew a few more lettuce seeds today and plant up corguettes. Lots of other bits and bobs needing doing as well, so I think I'd best have another cuppa while I try to work out the priorities:p

    Morning all :grouphug:

    So much to do and no time to do it in! I've got loads of washing to do :confused: I'm putting it down to the time of the week when uniforms get changed/washed, fresh PJ's/tops for me everyday (I wear thin strapped vest-tops and they go baggy after one wear so can't be worn 2 night on the run IYKWIM:eek: ) , plus DD going paddling in her clothes at the party she went to last night and getting soaked :rotfl: Oh well, the cleaning cloths are in on a bleach wash ATM and I'll put the microfibre ones in with them on a quick wash (I washed them yesterday but forgot to hang them out :o ) then I'll start on towels and clothes :rolleyes:

    I have 5 storage boxes of stuff to get sorted for ebay _pale_ I want it all listed today so I can see a pretty busy day ahead for me. I also want to finish off the school website, which is basically editing some photos and spell checking the site as my typing at speed isn't always 100% accurate :o Just waiting to hear back from the company we'll be registering the domain with as to how it can be paid for when the school doesn't have a credit/debit card :rolleyes:

    Just had a phone call from my mum, with not so good news, but not bad. Don't want to share it here (no offence but I don't think it would be right for me to share it), but lets just say, concentrating may be a little difficult for me today. :silenced::undecided

    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    Hi all and ((((hugs)))) to those who need them

    Thanks for everyone's thoughts yesterday.

    Update on my meeting with ex-OH last night, pretty pants. Embarrassed myself by crying, in public. Turns out he didn't care about me since January, fantastic. He's been offered a job where I work. Now I don't know what to do about my job (mtg next Monday) and the house (opposite where he lives, still no news from the vendor).

    I'm hiding indoors today, but going to get lots of cleaning done as it can be theraputic. Looking forward to reading what everyone else is getting up to, OS :)

    Have good days all

    Up late this morning - the BBQ lasted longer than planned and the forecasted "rain" amounted to 30 seconds of light drizzle which made everything smell nice!!! (I love the smell of wet tarmac!).

    We did get caught up in an armed siege though which was quite exciting in a very scary kind of way!! It's the second time I've been involved in a gun siege since December :eek: And Sheffield is supposed to be a safe city!!!

    No washing to do today and only two shirts to iron, so I'm not really sure what I'm going to do with myself once I've dusted and hoovered (didn't get round to it yesterday). I'll probably make a cottage pie for the freezer as we're out at another BBQ tonight (yey - no cooking!!)

    (((hugs))) to all - thinking of all who aren't feeling too great.

    oh what a beautiful morning, oh what a beautiful daaaaay!!!!

    exams are over, the sun is shining, and not even hayfever is going to get me down.

    having a pottering around day, trying to get bits done so i can concentrate on my essay this evening after my spell at the public shopping temple of argos (loads of brownie points if anyone wants to come in and buy anything other than a paddling pool, bbq, lawn mower or washing line :D :rotfl:)


    hope you all have a fantabulous day :j

    Afternoon all :hello:

    I'm bored :shhh::silenced::o I'm really not in the mood for ebaying, but these 5 boxes are shouting "list me!!!!!!!!!!" so I guess I had better get on with it. I've procrasted enough by cleaning the bathroom, making the beds and sorting out the washing, followed by some games on Neopets :naughty: Just saved myself one job later on though - it's dawned on me today that since I am home most days for lunch why don't I make the packed lunches for the next day up while I'm making my one for my lunch :idea::wall: So packed lunches are made and sitting in a little basket in the fridge chilling until DD and OH come in with their lunchboxes :D I make lunches the day before and put them in the fridge to keep them fresh anyway so this will allow the stuff to chill even more so DD will really enjoy her chilled drink at lunch time :T Now why didn't I think of this before considering I've been making packed lunches for OH for about 4-5 years :rolleyes::rotfl:

    Okay... enough procrasting, time to get on with the ebay stuff or I'm going to loose out on some much needed money :o

    My tv's here :j :T :j :T :j :whistle:

    It's a huge great beastie and I now have even more remote controls that are getting more and more complicated, to contend with. What makes it even more confusing is that the tv has a freeview box built in, which means I'll have to make sure I know whether I'm on freeview or sky before I record anything :confused: I got a 5 minute run through of the basics, then the chap said "have you any questions?" It's like the ad ...... "how long have you got?" :rotfl:

    So, DS2 and his mate are watching cBeebies on a HUGE screen, eating their picnic on the floor. DS2 is still up for the paddling pool later on - the novelty of the tv will wear off soon - after all, doesn't EVERYONE have one? LOL I shall spend some time reading the mountain of bumpf and instructions that came with it later on.

    Oh, and everyone - YES,, even you Rzl - have to support England in the World Cup. If they win, Iget 1/2 the price of the tv back. :j
    "Come on England, Come on England...." :rotfl:

    Right, this isn't getting the shopping put away, the washing hung out and the kitchen cleaned......

    Laters,

    TM xxx
