Hi Everyone
Thank you for all my birthday wishes. Had a lovely day family really spoilt me.
Well its miserable here today but we do need the rain honest!!
Going to do all the housework today so I can have an easy couple of days but with my DH that might not be possible how making a cup of tea can cause such a mess I will never know After 30 odd years I have trained him to bring his washing down but he leaves it in front of the machine:rotfl: :rotfl: He put tea out for me last night and it took me an hour to clean up !!! and it was only fish and chips from the chippy but he must have pulled every sauce and pickle jar out If I ask him to do more than one thing he tells me I am overwheming him and he has to have a little sit down and a nap !! Oh! will just have to keep up with the training.
Have a good day everyone

NINE WORDS WOMEN USE
(1) Fine: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
(2) Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
(3) Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.
(4) Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!
(5) Loud Sigh: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to # 3 for the meaning of nothing.)
(6) That's Okay: This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
(7) Thanks: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or faint. Just say you're welcome. (I want to add in a clause here - This is true, unless she says 'Thanks a lot' - that is PURE sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say 'you're welcome' . that will bring on a 'whatever').
(8) Whatever: Is a woman's way of saying F-- YOU!
(9) Don't worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking 'What's wrong?' For the woman's response refer to # 3.

A pretty good haul of change today - had one of those days at work when I was barely ever in the shop as I had so many errands to run - seemed to be finding road kill all over the place, and when I did the lunch run I got to keep the change - felt a little guilty actually as we ordered from Pizza Hut and we apparently have a standing 50% discount no-one knew and no-one wanted their money back!It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.
