When are you starting - I'll join you :j

This thread has been a lifesaver; I've not had much time to Fly this week, but after doing the lists over the last few weeks, I've just about been able to keep on top of things :T

DD(14) is such a sweetheart and keeps supplying warm drinks and things in between washing all bedding and deep cleaning her room. :smileyhea
On plus side it did push him into telling our boss that I couldn't possibly start up a new business:eek: on top of the hours I already work plus the kids and house need me too, so that was a big relief!

lemanie your DD sounds like a real wee star - bless her espcially just now when you are really poorly. and thank goodness DH has seen the light!!!!! re facebook i think you have to say on your request who you are on MSE but if you havent I think its lil_me who keeps it under control but maybe someone else will confirm that and you could pm her. if you werent on facebook you had to pm pigpen with your details if you wanted to be on the card swap list (I am not on FB) - so dont worry you havent missed anything. Just shout if you are not sure whats happening at any time.
macpep1 thats a bad reaction - hope you are feeling much better now
holly thats not good about OH's car and yes i agree it seems the logical thing to do re your car but how annoying and frustrating - hope it all gets sorted out quickly
natty good to see you honey - hope you are feeling better - what do men know about our toys - they are too wrapped up in their cars and DIY tools :rotfl::rotfl: have a nice day out with your friends

have not acheived much today - and dont know where the time has gone either.

1 x WM
1 X DW

I hope that's not an excuse for not getting all five stars :eek::p

Landscaper texted at THREE to tell me that there was just a bit more to do on monday so when I queried about the skip and the asbestos... he seems to have decided that they'll go back and finish it off today so that the skip can be shifted first thing tomorrow. And I need to check up on some paperwork as it's an unsealed skip and I'm SURE they quoted for a sealed one. I think he saw a nice little earner (rest of the garden) disappearing...

Woodstove is booked for Monday, and I finally managed to pay the deposit. They did ask me to email my pin number :eek: when I couldn't get through on the phone so I sent them a note back about credit card security standards and will keep the correspondence on file for future reference... any misuse of my card and I'll have a pretty good clue as to where it came from!

Must go... haven't got much of what I'd planned done today, but I'm meeting a friend for supper and then going on to another friend's for a body shop pamper party (don't like their stuff, but it's a good excuse for a catch up). See you later...

Afternoon all,

Well done on your new job likkleg
Oddjob - how nice of you to pop in
hugs serena
Mudders - big hugs and a chewy bone to Stripes

Work was marginally less boring today. I was actually told I was really appreciated for my efficiency and how glad they were to have me there.

Sore throat went away with a couple of cups of tea but my ankle's been playing up big time again. Must have been all that Dysoning and flying yesterday. I got really fed up with it this afternoon when it just wouldn't stop aching and whinging so I toddled off to the drop in medical centre. It's brill! I was seen within 15 minutes - much quicker than a scheduled appointment at the GP's!

Verdict was that she couldn't rule out a hairline fracture as it's still sore and swollen after 11 days so suggested I go to Casualty and get it xrayed. So I shall ask NN over a G&T tonight if she'll run me up there fairly early tomorrow morning after the drunks have been treated and before the sports injuries arrive! At the very least, they'll be able to show me how to bandage it effectively.
