It's been washed now because he put it in the wash. he got home from school and I asked huim to put his washing inn the basket and he said he had...erm no, there were trousers, his shoes and a shirt on the floor - he cam home in 'pe' kit yesterday so brought uniform home in bag. Then emptied it this morning.

Then he accused ME of getting the stuff OUT of the basket and putting it on his floor!:mad:
A definite chip off the old block there - his dad used to throw stupid accusations like that at me ALL the time.

Tell him he's old enough to do his own laundry, and that's what he'll have to do if he doesn't follow your system... BUT you'll charge him for electricity and detergent for each wash he does...

soappie I agree with greenbee, keep resting when you can and it'll get better quicker!

Valli I'd let him do his own too
sexymouse, well done you for not just handing out pre printed gibble that isn't at the children's level, no wonder the children adore you!
Diva, you just made it worse that ALL mine are for presents... I wonder if they will notice a missing one :rotfl: probably, but I could blame Thorntons hehe
Busy day there Dusty? I am sure you have achieved something. Put your feet up for a bit x
boddy hope you feel better soon x
JillD blimey, I am now scared to add mine up for the week as I was nodding as I read....suppose it'll all come out in the spread sheet lol ((hugs)) I feel wiped out too, must be Friday x

Pfft I've ended up doing more unpacking & diverted off list, pants, I keep doing these things little here thee everywhere getting nowhere fast. Oh I found my 'why am I so disorganised' book again :rotfl: always turns up in moments like this. I did get another 3 wash loads put away & I suppose the boys an give me help tomorrow in the bedrooms.

Sunday DPs club then off to where they are filming Top Gear at an exhibition in Middlesbrough on the evening

Ouch Soappie - sit and put it up and ice it straight away again. Don't move for as long as possible!

Unfortunately when I squealed I was at the first aid class, ironically. I am now going to sit with an ice pack on for half an hour. There's some more blue bruising showing this evening though the swelling is less severe. It's four days now.

At what point do I say enough is enough and risk visiting the doctor only to have it put in plaster for six weeks?

I realise I've been v. selfish this week what with injuries and stuff and I hope you'll all forgive me. xxx

Hope you feel better soon with your injuries Soappie!

Anyone around who fancies a chilled glass of white wine?

Ho hum, where are the Friday night regulars?The bar is pretty empty tonight round here...plenty of seats and tables free

I just ordered a heap of stuff from Debenhams.. including some school uniform bits for next September for DS3, DD2 and DD3.. but they were so cheap! I also ordered loads of sweets for family and children and a mug for my stepdad.

I am now off to do a HUUUUUUUUUUUUGE Lush order.. with my new window money... I have 2 weeks to replace it so as long as it isn't TOO extravagant of me I will be fine. CB in a week on Monday so I can fling that back to the window account.. it'll be fine.

Children decluttered off to their dads.. peace reigns in my house..
4 binbags labelled and on the doorstep for charity collection in the morning

I WILL have an empty house.. it is likely to kill me.. but I will!

Thanks but I cant remember now why I would need a hug :rotfl:but I will accept it graciously anyway

I can't remember either! I think it might have been the post alcohol blues!

chocolate buttons ?

No, buttons to put on my flower corsages, they go in the middle. Can't wait for them to arrive as it means I can finish off the flowers :j

AJ hope you enjoy your meal with OH

Hugs Soappie and Greenbee hope your ankles get better soon – put that foot up!

Mudbath how is the eye?

Hugs Jayjay and Triker

Sunnyzo, how nice of your friend to say you look glowing and happy, glad you are feeling so much better this week!

Pigpen hope AF clears off soon

Soappie you are by no means selfish! We want to hear how you are, so don’t feel it’s selfish to mention your injuries etc

Diva, thanks for saying I've done loads today and about not being superwoman - I thought I'd hit multi quote on that bit but it hasn't appeared. You are sweet and kind, thanks for making me feel better, I was feeling very lazy!

Twoflower, enjoy your friday night relaxing time!

This evening have run DH a bath and made him some toast - he didn't want any proper dinner as is too tired to eat it. Poor thing, he's worked really hard this week.

We are watching Children in Need now. I've finished my cushion cover for friend, need to sew it up this weekend to give her on Monday. I'm sure there was something else, but I can't remember!

Have a good weekend everyone! xx

Mum_on_a_mission_2

Rosepink - parcel arrived safely thank you!

Sorry I've been MIA a fair bit this week,life's been busy but in a great kind of way, hopefully next week will be calmer.

Have found we are to have guests for Christmas so just a few weeks to do some serious decluttering & sorting out - eek. :eek:

I haven't bothered going to my GP about mine.... like you I didn't rest it - the problem being if it can take your weight you kind of forget Keep doing the Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation stuff. Once the bruising comes out it should feel better. They're unlikely to plaster it if you can walk on it, and would want to wait for the swelling to go down. Have you taken/used any arnica for the bruising? Or taken anything for the pain? You could try calling NHS direct.

Having said that, mine seems to be getting worse, but I've resorted to having sports massage on it to help fix it, as otherwise it might stay as it is. I've got two weeks before the physio gets back to try to get it back to normal, or I'm in trouble :eek:

No flying done this evening... I've sat on the sofa with an icepack on my foot eating pizza I've now got to finish some paperwork for work...
