Afternoon all

Today's list all done - I did all the bedrooms. Two loads of washing done, dried and put away already but it's clouding over now. I cut the front grass (did the back yesterday) and vacuumed right through downstairs. Again.

Newton is a very cute kitten
Hope you feel better today Soappie
Hope your treatment is going well Toots.

Hope everyone's OK.

My DD1 is going on holiday today for two weeks so DH will be staying over there dog-sitting. He'll still be in every day for lunch but I'll be on my own overnight and I don't like being here on my own. It's a bit scary.

Afternoon all.

No, I haven't been idle, there were several online survey notifications in my inbox, so been doing those.:D

No sweetie I can sneak on and see what you have all been up to. Some of the nurses dont ike you being on the internet so sometimes I have to wait for a change of staff but I can watch DVDs on the lappy and read emails etc without being on line! It makes my luggage a bit heavy so I am actually thinking of a netbook next - when my home pc gives up the ghost i will use the lappy and then could have a netbook for hospital etc etc

I hope the hossy visit is going well, Toots. I have a netbook; I had to get an external hard drive to watch DVDs/use Microsoft Autoroute etc, but I got one from Amazon (using vouchers from online surveys:p), and there's freeware media players available on t'internet. It's great; as you say, not as bulky as a lappy; and there are 3 USB ports, so plenty of places to plug in peripherals.

Soappie :eek::eek::eek: That sounds a really nasty trip - I hope you're soon fully recovered.

Jojo :mad: at KH just stepping over you.

G&B Awwww, Newton is soooooo sweet. A real look of total innocence on his little face, there.:o

Some of today's list is already done, so I must now crack on and finish, plus I have to make some sort of cakes for Mr LW's lunch box (can't decide what to make at the mo:think:), also an apple crumble, and a pizza for tonight's dins.

Better get up off me bum, I suppose.....:D

Sexy Good to see you back xx

For all of you who contact me by phone ..... I'm having problems sending/receiving texts at the moment :mad: so apologies in advance, I'm not ignoring you :rotfl:

Love & hugs to all

Good afternoon

Am sneaking in while I'm at work ....not that this is addictive or anything:p

I put the WM on as soon as I got up, and hung out the clothes before setting off for work..which has never been known before...so I don't want it to rain pleeeze. I also managed to put out the rubbish & recycling and feed the birds. I can feel a glow of 'is this what being organised feels like?' surrounding me...i like it.

Pen Pen - there are two colleges in town we looked at both but DS opted for the 6th form at the school he'd been attending. He gets his AS results next month....and will then enrol for his second year in the 6th form....and then it'll be uni:eek:. My baby boy is all grown up...when did that happen?

Froddington - snap. fluoxetine rules lol well, it certainly makes life more copeable with Belated Happy Birthday xx

Nannyboo1 - do you attend any play sessions at your local children's centre?

life in turmoil - well done

cyclingyorkie - half a pound is half a pound less to lose. I need to lose about 6 stone too. I lost a stone earlier this year and have kept that off. We are away on holiday next week; when we get back I'll be on the old style Slimming World green plan ...we can encourage each other :T

Not much flying going to be done for the rest of this week as I really must pack ready for the holiday. Sunny Norfolk - I can't wait .

And I am sooo looking forward to coming home to admire my dots and do some more

Hugs to all xx

'ello everyone :hello: I did fall into my freshly made bed and have not long woken up. Feel a bit better for having a good sleep. Got to go and sort out a prescription now. I was going to make chapattis, but naaaaa stuff it, we can have pitta bread instead. Glad I'd S&S the kitchen it's so nice to come down and it all looks nice

hi, I started well on Monday. I went out for a meeting with a business advisor yesterday and had the not so brilliant idea of getting down on hands and knees to scrub the kitchen floor properly later.

I am now on my back with a heat pad on it to try to ease the pain. The most annoying thing is that I am only half way done in the kitchen so the floor looks even worse than before I started:D

gandb I love the kitten. I should be getting one soon too. DH doesn't want to know.

GnB....what a cute little puddy cat! Our kitten (Millie) is black too but with white paws and she has faint stripes in the black that you only see in certain light.

Speaking of kittens....I was cleaning the bathroom just before lunch today, when DD2 (aged 3) wanders upstairs with a bag of DD1's all zipped up. She got to the top of the stairs and announced rather proudly....I've got Millie in here. :eek::eek::eek::eek: Noooooo!!!!! I opened the bag rather quickly and rescued the poor little kitty....she was absolutely fine. Explained to DD2 that it wouldn't be nice if she was put in bag and it was zipped up and Millie doesn't like it either. Poor little thing just didn't think it through and didn't mean any harm and burst into tears. She apologised to the cat and hopefully won't do it again. Little monkey!
