Hi,
Well I have been ploughing my way through the washing and most of it going in the tumbler. Needs must!!! At least i got my WM mended instead of replacing it which I do think is on the cards as its very old and gets used very much.

I took DD shopping this morning but we didnt stick around. I was ready for a mooch and get vaugely festive but she not up for much although we had a nice time. I did get some 3 for 2 batteries from boots but no chance for anything else. This is the first year ive saved the money for christmas but no inclination or opportunity to spend it...usually its the other way around.

I have a second opinion tomorrow for Neurology so heres hoping. Its been a bit of a week again. Kids dad and I were talking about this just now as both our older kids seem very troubled at the moment. Thankyou for very kind PMs and hugs.

Well must wobble into the kitchen to turn oven on and organise salmon for tea. My little doggie is salivating at the thought of it...she loves fish and can smell it when I get it out of the freezer. There is extra just for her:eek:

Love Mollyxx

Happy Birthday SisterCas :beer::bdaycake::bdaycake:

Just want to add a thanks to everyone who read my post yesterday and wished me well. Things seem to keep on getting bad... just had a phone call from M&S where I was to have an interview for Xmas vacancy in a coupla days saying don't bother to come cos you were meant to take up a job with us a coupla years ago and didnt. True but I did inform them well in advance(which they seem to haveno record of) and didnt take up the job cos of a family members illness. I have emailed head office about this and am utterley heartbroken. It was the one good peice of news I had had to look forward to and tho not much hourswise, it would have helped and meant I dont have to hope they are giving out free biccies in the bakery section. Oh well I guess things could be worse. I know that sounds glib but I always think of those who are not as well off as me.

Evening

Well today was eventful. I had sacked 3 young people of my course yesterday due to non attendance. I informed the rest of them today and we discussed how silly behaviour can lead you to being sacked. And then on the minibus today 2 of the delightful bu88ers decided to light up and smoke a cigarette!:mad: So I pulled over at side of road and kicked them out of my bus! They had to walk 5 miles home (they are 21 so not kids) and were greeted by letters telling them they too had been sacked! So I'm left with 7, who are all pretty good on the whole so it should work a lot better

OS wise today, I have just washed dishes. I'm having fajitas for dinner, the veggie mix is from the freezer so just need to heat up.

Have a good evening

Grr i am so angry i have just taken the dogs out for a walk and the old man down the road with a staffie that has atacked my dog before was coming down the path towards me dog off lead as usual i shouted to him as it ran up to mine growling n snarling then he had a go at me n said my dogs had been pooing up the alleyway so i shouted at him to prove it but to put his dog on the lead and he just kept on at me when his dog had run off over the park and as i pointed out probably pooing which was against the law in the end i had to walk away as he started raising his stick at me unbelievable has a go at me with no proof and then isnt bothered about his own dog or even having a lead with him
just to point out i clear up after my dogs

SunnyGirl

Tiredmum That is so annoying :mad: I have 2 dogs & always clear up after them and always have done, even before it became law. We've been asked to put our dogs back on the lead by someone with a dog that was viscious and not good with other dogs. DH told the man that he shouldn't be walking his dog around other balanced ones if thats the case!

Keep your chin up & don't let this small minded, petty idiot get to you xxx

Do you have dog wardens near you? Or maybe ring your environmental health office & enquire about their dog-poo fixed penalty process ...they may be willing to patrol if his dog is being allowed to use the park as a toilet.

tired_mum

i dont know if his dog did poo as its dark and it had run off to the park so i cant be sure but anyway surely you would need proof for them to do anything?

Evening all,

Happy birthday Sistercas, hope that it has been a good one.

Very cold here to-day with very heavy showers, lamb chops with beans, roast and steamed potatoes for dinner, no washing to do so it has been an easy day, should have been continuing with the clear out of the junk that is all over the house, but DGS2 was here all afternoon so I spent time with him instead.

Hugs to all in need or want

Evening All

Late again today - DD decided to annoy her older sister this morning instead of me for once so I stayed in bed til my alarm went off:j

Nothing much OS today except youngest three had LO hotpot for dinner, Older two had chippy and me and DH went out for pizza (MS job) that 'cost' only 95p after the reimbursement and its nice to get an hour to ourselves.

DS1 has his driving test in the morning (:eek:) he's calm - I've got butterflies! I'd be grateful if everyone can send good luck vibes his way; he really deserves to pass!

Last day at work tomorrow then i'm off for a long weekend - few MS jobs to do here and there but hoping to get the house in order and back into my OS ways!

Moneysavingdiva - Thank you for passing on the code for Thorntons - placed my order today:T and the hamper will be stashed for me and DH to enjoy one night over christmas when the kiddies are all tucked up in bed!

I think that's me about done for today - need to go and strip a chicken thats been in the slow cooker today and strain the stock and then bung a ham in the SC tonight - will turn into soup and chicken carbonara tomorrow night.

Night

Just been to the utillity room. There are mouse prints next to the back door in the sprinkled flour. Traps are still set. Sprinkled some more flour at the step up to the kitchen level.
