  • DD3 broke my fortune waving cat - best present boyfriend ever bought me ( previous attempts included nothing/nothing/nothing..) and it smashed and covered all the floor, but on top of all the paperwork so now I have to try and clean that up at same time as filing and avoiding injury. And hide the gap from the boyfriend when he comes over tomorrow !!

    Neighbour died and I am struggling to know whether to knock on the door and offer the wife help or just wait a week or two

    I forgot to go food shopping - how daft am I ?? So now I have to take the 4 kids in with me later. I am dreading it. I would rather pull my eyebrows out hair by hair than control the kids. They rarely go ( once every 4 months) so the normal excitement kids have is magnified by 10 as they are bedazzled by rows and rows of products from adverts.

    A large bird tried to climb up the sloping slippery conservatory roof and keep falling over - DD3 now thinks it was a giant monster trying to get in and attack her

    Boyfriend bought me a keyfinder for Xmas as I lose my keys hourly. Only problem is I have lost the keyfinder !!! Never even opened it. Scatty bint.

    And to top it all, the baby has slept for 5 hours solidly and I still cant get anything done !!

    Someone tell me something motivational - someone must have heard something hilarious today or sold a bizarre thing .......

    Whats Auction Alfie? must have missed that.

    For some reason I am reconsidering those books...they are really messing with my head! Wondering how I'd get shot of them though :-/
    i don't think they will be much. look at how many books sell for 1p on amazon.

    surely everyone knows better to places to sell books than ebay job lot if they are actually worth something.

    Remember things aren't always how you view them as despite you saying boyfriends previous gift attempts included nothing /nothing and nothing you then told us he bought you a keyfinder for christmas.
    So there you are it only takes one post and you already have a boyfriend who is twice as good as you thought he was:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    You have brilliant optimism, that made me laugh...OH is off again now, he grabbed a drink and a creme egg from the fridge and dropped it so its smooshed all over the floor, then said he'd clean it up when he gets back and walked through it!! :mad::eek:

    I just won 4.78 on bingo when I wasn't even watching ...

    If you want a new waving cat, just ask - there are 100s of shops here that sell them! As for the neighbour, I'd tell her to let you know if there's anything you can do, simple things like making an extra portion of food for her may help a lot.

    Knock on her door love, it could mean a lot to her. I know its difficult to know what to say, but I can tell you that in my own recent loss I have really appreciated the knock on the door, the If you want anything just call,

    Applied for a job at night times. So hopefully i'll maybe get an interveiw for that. Would fit well round other commitments and the money would all be saved!!

    Can't you shop online? Might be a daft question, you've probably already thought of that! Your neighbour might appreciate it if you take something like a shepherd's pie or a curry over - when my mum was dying a lot of her friends brought meals round for us as cooking's the last thing you feel like doing, you'd want to make it something they can pop in the freezer if it won't get eaten straight away though :(

    Thanks for the nappy site suggestions, looking at how much they're going for it might be better than I thought - I've got a full set, from newborn to toilet-training time, cost a lot but at the time we thought we'd save money and then I kept making excuses to use disposables as I found emptying the bucket so foul :o

    I've had a big long daydream today about setting up a fetish website, is that motivational? It'd be fab if it worked...:eek:
    Nothing's happened in real life except I've got a new pushchair :T:rotfl:
    I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick @ss.... and I'm all out of bubblegum.
