    Good morning everyone :wave:

    Hope you are all well, I never got anything put on ebay last night, took DD to brownies and DS wanted make Choc Chip Muffins (we usually do something together whilst DD is at brownies) no choc chips so we make fairy cakes so messy kitchen and clear up afterwards!!

    My DH who is usually a good help round about the house has SOAADFA this week!! Monday he took the car into the garage and stayed there all day until it was sorted :eek:
    The rest of the week all he has done is a couple of washings and not even put them away, just folded them and left random piles everywhere.

    He has been putting DD out to school but she is almost nine so not rocket science is it :huh: and made dinner for everyone coming in (well he looked at meal planner and heat up HM meal defrosted from freezer)

    So house is even worse this week, at least when he is working, he can’t mess the house up!! Sorry rant over :rotfl:

    Diva - (((Hugs)) hope you are well, sorry to hear about Tris' memory loss, my Dh was is a near fatal crash last year and he really is lucky to be alive, he had memory loss for a while due to his head injury but its slowly getting back to normal so hopefully its only short term x
    Lady L - Hope you are ok, not saw a post from you today?
    JinkyHope you are alright ((hugs))
    Toots(((Hugs))) hope you are well, its good to have you back
    Sandy - Please come on if you are lurking, all the ladies on here are genuinely concerned for you.
    Tooch – Did you manage to sort our your DS with waterproofs?
    G & B – Hope your LO’s CT comes back ok, take care xx
    RoseHope you don’t get DH’s nasty lurgy!!
    xxJoXX - Hope your mum picks up soon, what a shame and well done on your sister, another KH bites the dust, glad she saw him for what he was in the end. You look after yourself as well xx
    Leedwell done on helping your DS’ friend but it must have been mentally exhausting for you as well x
    Ishtar - ((Hugs)) and good luck vibes for your mum
    AnW’s – Good result vibes being sent NOW…
    Rach – Good for you and what a great boss letting you away to see that, my friend got a “birth to potty” pack and she loved them only thing she kept buying fancy outers so don’t think it worked out any cheaper than disposables but then she was helping the landfills :rotfl:
    Scotdebs – Flying vibes being sent NOW……
    Dusty – We have an electric flymo with grass box and it was fab when we had grass, no grass now but planning to rip up decking this year and put grass down again.

    Hi all, hope you are all ok? Have skimmed through thread and wish everyone well....and SANDY, where are you?

    Have been doing level 1s and s&s so house not got in usual 'I'm decorating' funk. Have done paintwork prep and painted ceilings in DR and hall. Just collected paint I bought ages ago for DR walls and realized it is called 'on the rocks',:rotfl:.... how appropriate...:D

    Catch you all later.

    Will either be a great day or a really really carp day. Work had a mini inspection type thingy and if we don't get the result LBB needs then everyone's life will be hell :( :mad: so some good result vibes would really be appreciated please.
    Posi-vibes being sent; a little late, I know, but better than not at all.:o

    Plus I'm not keen on being watched by our resident garage mouse. Who's been called Mickey by the way. How original!!
    You think that's unoriginal? We have a wood pigeon who regularly visits for breakfast - he's called Walter.:D

    Back to the grindstone......:D

    Found out that last person who got into my prefferred school for ds2 actually lives on my road:mad:, its a long road and im about 30-40 houses down but thats how close it was, im gutted:(:(. But im hoping that i will have a good case for the appeal and should be very high on the waiting list however it is sorted. I said i wasnt going to worry about it but all i have been doing is searching for things on line to help me, i think i need to get out and do something to take my mind off this.

    I dont know why im getting so worked up, oh thinks its trivial and it probably is
    :tongue:Mum to 2 cheeky boys:tongue:
    2011 will be my year!!
