    10.45pm on a Saturday night and I have just cleaned the kitchen floor on my hands and knees :eek:....What an interesting life I lead.

    OH leaving for Heathrow at midnight so bed to myself tonight :T

    Going to a roller disco party tomorrow but I wont be skating....really bad Sinitus at the moment so am rattling with tablets...headache is terrible and feel like head will explode if I bend over so picking things up off the floor is horrible.

    Mean mummy moment earlier DD2 wanted to stay over at her friends so I made her clean out the fish and do all the ironing before she went......and there was a lot too :D:D

    Sorry but have only skimmed the thread due to the headache so Hugs to anyone who needs it and Love to all xx

    Rosepink...please stay...love reading your posts and always feel happy for you when you manage to fly even a little xx

    Loads of love to Toots,LL and MSDx

    Pigpen, the flappers thingamy sounds fabulous. I have a heavy beaded dress in cream which is flappers style that I have absolutely no sentimentality too whatsoever as it's now massively too small - I'd happily give it to you if you can get into a 12/14?

    Thank you for the offer.. sadly I too am too porky for a dress that teeny tiny! Hence it won't be sexy lol.. think fringed Babe (the sheep-pig)!! lol

    Oooh, just wanted to share my secondary news also - I have now saved a whole day off my life according to the quit smoking monitor!!!!

    Yay - am going to make that one count x

    That is a special day.. now what will you do with it? You'll have to make it tomorrow otherwise you might meet some untimely end and miss it.. so best to do that extra one first.. borrowed time at the beginning and your time at the end when you are too worn out from your borrowed days to do anything!

    Time for bed

    I've done over half of my ironing

    We changed our minds about the basin we want today, then about the tap we were going to have and finally I went off of the tiles too. Running out of time now so off to another tile place tomorrow and must call the builder.

    Lil_me I hope your Dad gets better soon

    Mummyyof5 sinus pain is evil - hope you get better soon

    Soappie - best talks I have been to have involved short film clips or visual aids/props of some kind - not sure if that is appropriate or not.

    Right off to bed now - see you all tomorrow.

    Piggers I have some glitzy headbands, like the big bobbles but that go round your head that Toots mentioned, there is a purple one which could start off your feathery head thingy? Not sure how well it would go, but I never wear them so I could pop it in the post if you are interested?

    Toots Thanks aunty! I never thought of getting the stuff for freeee! It's mostly clothes and books, maybe a few dvds, and the odd pair of shoes, so it's nothing too tricky to pack. I shall have to give it some thought, but thankyou so much for the ideas.

    Hugs for Lil-Me and get well without winding up the staff vibes for your dad.

    Rose sorry you are feeling tired, lots of hugs xx

    Going back to the depths of page 40 something to find my weekend list...

    without having posted last week or this Toots I need four stars, finding life & studying very hard at the moment seem to be working playing taxi playing mum tidying mess and then sorting out the books and writing assignments I know its getting me in the right direction work wise but sometimes its hard.

    Anyway hope all here are well and behaving - Toots hope your list is shorter than it was the last time i popped in.

    Will be back in properly in a couple of weeks but till then i am doing the lists just not managing to catch up and post.

    Carol.. you gave me a thought.. thank you.. I'll go check the shop just round the corner and let you know, if that is ok? I may just be in luck.. :D

    I appear to have a rather nasty case of colic at the moment.. I need winding lol.. *burp* .. not sure which way things want to move but I just wish it would hurry up.. I think I have developed an aversion to garlic, even in the smallest of quantities.... still it will keep my red fruits, sweetcorn, latex (bananas, kiwi's and avacados) and grape allergy company!!

    Bed remade and all nice and clean and smelling sweet.. bit crumpled as it was in the dryer.. and the duvet cover looks like elephant hide! Even I wanted to iron it once it was on the bed!!! :eek: :eek: :eek:
