Hi everyone

Thanks for the list again, to the Tremendous Trio (et al.)

I'm in again today, and need to have a good go at the sitting room, so I'm glad it's up for today. I also want to get outside and do some gardening before the rain comes mid-week.

It's my nn birthday today - ends with a zero, so it's supposed to be a 'big one' :eek:, but the day is curiously flat. Most of the family have forgotten it completely - like my Dad - or still aren't talking to each other and me, so are deliberately ignoring it (like my Mum and my toxic sister). DH/DD went off early at 7:30 to school/work, so the house is rather silent and empty.

But we went to the garden centre yesterday, and DH/DD treated me to a couple of topiary box plants I've been wanting for a while; and we all had a nice meal last night which DH made for me (home-made lamb shanks and roasted veg; and little chocolate pots ). And I did get a very funny card from my other sister & BiL. Tonight there's a school concert, so we're having a quick pizza at 6:00pm before tearing out again to watch DD play her cello. So I'll get to put on my glad rags then, and may treat myself to a glass of wine before we go.

All the same, I'm feeling low (n-'zero' birthdays always get to me!) - so I really need someone to throw a mule in my direction and tell me to get a shift on!

Love to all

MissH

Morning Everyone :wave:

I am in again this week thanks to the super 3 or should that be 4 ???

Welcome to the newbies/returners. Its great in here

Today’s list nearly done as I done this one yesterday so I will concentrate on getting my laptop connected up at home!!:(

I am posting from work, my boss is on holiday so we have the radio on, creates a much better atmosphere, he is bah humbug about us having the radio on, :mad: (even though I switch it off when the telephone rings) he is an old fart!!:rotfl:

Hope you are all well, am going to see if I can have a read through the old thread but need to get 4-weekly meal planner started as this weekend is my monthly cookathon!!


Lady L – Hope you are ok (((Hugs)))
Toots – Hope your hospital stay wasn’t too bad (((Hugs)))
Diva – (((Hugs))) and continued vibes for Tris & Michelle, how are they
Jinky – Hope you are ok xx
GnB - Hope your LO is on the mend soon (((Hugs)))
Toochoosey – I got my DS an all in one style waterproof suit from Go the outdoor place, he looks like a racing driver in it and they had pink ones, think I paid £15 and it was the best investment I ever made, and as they are elasticated at the arms and legs so you would get away with getting a bigger size to get the most out of it. xx
Sandy – I had limited internet access last week so never got to see how you got on, will try find it on old thread (((Hugs)))
Rose – How are you?? How are the walks coming along? x

Happy Birthday MissHiggerty!

I've had plenty of birthdays like that! Enjoy as much as you can - esp your purchases from the garden centre!

I'm in again, although from now to next Weds Food and IT coursework will be taking priority.....and the grey hairs will be breeding due to stress!

Morning all,

I'm here again this week, probably level 1s, must do decorating . Thank you to Pigpen, Soappie and Toots, real and mystery!:T

I bought the latest Kathy Reichs yesterday and asked DH to hide it for me. He's supposed to text me at 11pm to let me know where it is, so I've got to get some more work done first.
Sandy - I would love an excuse to come to York more often. We could sit by the Ouse in the sunshine and have a drink, if you're up for it (or do anything else you fancy ).

Made me laugh about the book, I have to put them in my bedside drawer and only to be retrieved when all work done

Also, Sandy, same here, I am in North Yorkshire and can be in York in 50 mins and don't mind excuses to visit, same as MrsC, so let us know when you move.

Teen 1 off school with D and V ( not 'pulling a fast one', evidence of illness everywhere!). Will scub bathroom within inch of its life later when all calmed down!
ETA sorry, just read back through, and realise evidence of nursing background there. Too much info and no sympathy!!!!:D

:rotfl:I have no nursing background but it's still my approach, made me laugh though :rotfl:

Old lady walk this afternoon so have to work like a dervish (can I do 3 hours work in 2; shhh don't tell the boss:D), do some flying and get tea ready before I go..........so must dash.......if you see me here again, feel free to give me a boot:D

ETA: Happy Birthday MissH

toochoosey
