    Thanks beanie. I feel happier now its happening, mainly because my washing bin, and 4 recycling bags of washing to do is finally going to get done!! ha. Then i wonder why im running out of clothes...although all my knicker buying has payed dividends, i have one pair left! I dunno why i feel proud that i have left my washing in this state... its just the worst thing to do known to man.

    Im in one of those could talk for ever evenings...about nothing in particular. So im going to go and let matt parooz (god knows how you spell that) the internet and im gunna have to sit through sodding foyles war. *snore*

    Why did you let the washing build up sooooo much?

    ok i still havent let matt on ha. I let it build up because i hate it.. if i wash anything i wack it in the washing machine, leave it in there for a day, leave it to dry for a couple of days and then it will either be left in the airing cupboard untill i need it or i will fold it for the ironing pile which could be some weeks. This is why i have had the same washing powder box for a year and a half, and im still on it!

    its pronounced Swim-Bo, she does not read the forums, fortunately her convertible is a toyota so even with 110k miles it starts perfectly every time, they only thing that we have ever had to do to it is change the bulbs, its never gone wrong and its still on the original clutch :)

    ate far too much over the weekend, 1000k cals to much :( its going to blow out this week i know it...

    morning:D one more day and the kids are back at school:j:j 20 days off for easter, ridiculous:D

    Yesterday went to the first car boot sale, what a load of tat, both OH and I just walked up and down a few lines and then decided to come home as it was just the kind of rubbish you would throw out for the bin men or have yourself with no purpose for it, not worth getting up at 7.30am on a lovely sunday morning to go to, hopefully they will pick up eventually. I asked how much a skirt was and he said ' I was looking at £5 per item':eek: another woman over heard him and walked off same as me, car boot sale, not shop:rotfl:

    I bought some lovely herbs from the boot fair though, curry, lemon thyme and lavender as well as enough petunias etc to fill my hanging baskets, 2 strawberry plants and fuschia for the front trailing ones, all of that £11 so very pleased with that, all done, spent all afternoon potting, this year growing runner beans, strawberries, cherry toms, maybe lettuce we shall see, I try to grow and have every year different things/plants so that it changes, last year it was rhubarb hardly worth it, cherry toms, peppers, courgettes never took, herbs, was very good at growing runner beans many years ago so thought would give it a go, cauli grown that, over the years many stuff but with the arthritis being as bad as it is recently I really need a garden that sort of takes care of itself, looks pretty but does not need me in it tending to it daily:D

    my convertable sees me once a year the poor thing!--i agree toyotas are amazing i had a celica 1973-it had well over 200,000 miles on the clock and was going strong--it burnt a bit of oil but never let me down!-i cant even remeber bulbs going!
    Not only are nuts good diet tools they are also anti-cancer--just a handful!--shops here are full of the full spectrum--its time the uk turned away from its high meat diet--or fatty cheese--a lot of meals here come with rice instead of potatoes and yoghurt to give protein--i am quite into the veggie stuff since starting this!

    Don't despair, you are not the only person in the world who does this!! I (hangs head in shame) did exactly the same thing before HWMDAT (He who must do as told :rotfl:) moved in. He has given up on me knowing how to work the washing machine and now the washing gets done as long as I can get it to the basket!!

    Am starting to feel better, the last couple of days have been very sluggish, knocked off the pain killers and am feeling more sparky, even managed to get out to the ponies this morning. It is so nice to have someone soooo pleased to see you first thing in a morning especially when you haven't done your hair and put any makeup on. Oh I know they only love me coz I am the dinner lady, but I like to think they have missed me!!
