cyclingyorkie

had no pc most of the day - dust/loose connection I hope so have only read this page.

DD2 last exam tomorrow so currently looking at fish cookery - she needs remember a few ideas for tor the exam!

I'm a Miele fan for washing machines - can't tell you what the service is like - never seen an engineer in 6 years - and I do a LOT of washing! (but not as much as Pigpen!)

11 year old mother? i wasn't ready at 28! (probably still not.)

Monday - Kitchen and Dining Room Done


Got my jobs done this morning then went to my voluntary job. Have just watered the garden and Im decluttering a cuppa.

serena Congrats to DD.
Lady L the sunshine is supposed to last all week. The power of the flyladies is amazing. Sending you some spoons for Glasto. Enjoy!

Hugs for everyone specially Toots, Lady L and Diva.

Brats clearing the back room.. I am too fat, it is their $hite and I don't see why I should do everything.

I have however folded 6 loads of washing for them to put away their own, while dinner cooked.

OH loaded the DW

I am far too hot and VERY grumpy this evening.. I am absolutely NOT to be messed with!

Ice cream for dinner for me!

We picked it cos it was the nearest Saturday to half-way between our birthdays & all the good vibes of the summer solstice of course! & it's not the length of the night that matters but the quality.:rotfl: :rotfl:

A friend gave me some valerian tea today, to help me sleep, so I'm having that later :beer:

PenelopePenguin I think it was you:o I do try to get them all to join in but sometimes it's just easier to do it myself. They empty the DW, put their own washing away and tidy their own rooms so am getting there.

It was me It might be easier for you to do it all in the short term, but in the long term it'll be loads easier for you to get them to help - start with a quick 10min Challenge and see how much you all get done :T

A friend of mine isn't going to Glastonbury this year, as he usually does. He has the week off at home, though, so we're all imagining him not washing, using wet wipes only, eating from tins, not shaving, wearing wellies at all times, and rolling in mud in the garden, just to give himself an authentic vibe :rotfl:

been to Cornhill today and made myself a lovely necklace! The only other person that has been there longer than me has been discharged so it looks like I will be next:(
I was also well miffed - the official opening of the centre was yesterday and we weren't even told - it was in the paper today and on the TV last night apparently - none of the volunteers or day-patients were asked or told about it - only 90 assorted bigwigs! (and only some of the staff)
We have all been waiting for the opening since last year and wondering who was going to do it.

*rant over*

Enjoy the necklace :A I'm :mad: on your behalf :mad:

I think they should prosecute the parents for negligence!!! They either knowingly allowed their daughters to have sex or did not properly supervise them allowing it to happen.. That did NOT go down well when I said it to the mum of the youngest girl in this country to have a baby.. she was 11 and 3 months when her daughter was born.. the dad was 14. The mother had allowed them to sleep together in her house because 'at least she knew where they were' I said she should have been more concerned about what they were doing than where they were given the situation she allowed her daughter to get into.. I also found a lot of the time it was the mothers who WANTED the daughters to have a baby so they could have a new toy.. Totally irresponsible parenting.

I also know someone who was a grandmother at 27!

What she said :T

As for being a grandma at 27 - I'm 46 and nowhere near ready

chipping in to agree with pigpen and pen pen

I once jokingly told a year 5 girl with a cough to 'give up the cigarettes' and got a startled look...

turns out she WAS smoking
