    SM you can positively feel your sense of relief when reading your post, you sound much, much happier :)

    Toots thanks, they don't know yet that they're coming to do it :rotfl: I'll be up at the council office on Monday demanding that they do, if she's getting done then no reason why I can't, they have no argument. RE: the printer, I have no clue lol maybe you could uninstall it, then re-install it?

    Think I'll go and get dressed then have a potter.
  • sounds like the worst part is over sexy and if your mentor has directed you to what needs done then you know where to start - well done again angel - I am over the moon for you too. It was well deserved before now. And as you said you did virtually all of it yourself so you know your work/planning is good when it passes muster with even the meanist of critics. I certainly hope its plain sailing from now on - just need to knock you out at night to make sure you get enough sleep:rotfl:
    enjoy your pampering and day out
    love n hugs
    toots xx

    morning all

    It's dark like night here and we've just had thunder and lightning! Don't think we'll be walking today!!

    DH still in bed, I'm so used to getting up before 7 that even 8.30 (when I got up) is a lie in! DH very grumpy and down at the moment. I don't seem to be able to do anything right, working too hard isn't helping. I'm putting it down to exam stress and hoping that it'll pass then. He's always had up and down periods anyway, i'm much more on a level.

    I need to do some flying, but i'll wait til he's up as he'll be playing ps3 / working etc. I quite like my morning peace and quiet! I have sorted the recipe stand (which is more of a letter/voucher stand here) out, pile of stuff for shredding and some in the recycling box. Think I'll make soup for lunch too, St@rbucks will be rammed on a day like today.

    Morning all,

    I need to get my dailies done then more Ebay and wrapping. I'm hoping to go and see Nev this afternoon, ( if she's in ) she's looking after some kittens for the week and i want to see them before they go back. I have to wait for OH to bring the car back though, he's taken his children half way to their Mums for the weekend..

    Ds1 wants the internet back :rolleyes: so i'd better be quick. HHC at 9.30 anyone?

    Morning Ladies :hello:

    Had a really slack day yesterday and did nothing apart from the 'must do' dailies :o Did have a good day though :D
    Was woken by DD this morning at 4.30 am in tears and had to get into bed with her to chat for a while and didnt get much sleep after that so am feeling pretty pooped already. Off to find my lists and catch up - see you all later
    Hugs to all x
    I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints - the sinners are much more fun ;)
