Have had a completely lazy day as have a cough from hell and everytime I cough it feels like my head will explode :eek: <like that for real...

Have decided to tidy lr when kidlets are in bed, just feeding bub then going to do dishes and put some laundry away and stick a load of towels in the wm. OH is away at a car show for the weekend so treated myself to a yummy looking reduced quiche from the deli at MrT which he doesn't like for dinner looking forward to that later. And thats about it really. Will finish my lists tomorrow, after taking DS1 to the park on his 'new' freecycled scooter which he loves. It's covered in rust and has pink wheels but the joy of being nearly 3 is that he doesn't care!

Going to find my list so I can organise my day a bit better tomorrow. Hope everyone's having a good weekend, hugs spoons and sticks x

fedupandskint

Lamb casserole flung in the oven quickly before it went off - forgot about it yesterday

just need to see if the pork belly is ok and that can be flung in the oven too

Must be getting over this bug now as have completed 2 rooms from the lists, made a casserole and thinking about making some tea - more than I could muster any energy for all week. Must be getting there now yipee!

Gah....some piggitb@$turd has broken into my car, one smashed window and no stereo....:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: so cheesed off.

Neighbour came round to tell me, not fair, not funny, now need to find £250 of excess, thanks a bunch.

Awaiting calls back from police and garage, just so fed up.

Anyway took my frustration out on the cooker so its significantly cleaner now. Girls have cleared up front room and dining room for me.

Now I have to get ready for the wedding reception but not really n the mood.:(

Triker honey thats really not fair - what barstewards - I hope they get the little bugg*rs and lock them up! Just what you didnt need - huge squishy (((hugs))) and I hope the wedding takes your mind of it a bit xxxx

toots xx

onestep

Right.. am going to try and put the pics of my flowers in here.. sorry if they're huge



actually I'll just do one and see how they look..

am sorry Triker.., some people :mad:

poohbear59

((hugs)) Triker, that is a rotten thing to do to you. I hope you still get to the wedding and are able to enjoy it.

Toots I hope you are feeling better soon and less like a zombie. But I think I know the feeling I hope hospital goes well. I will be thinking of you and praying hard.

Thank you everyone for the hugs, I really did need them. It was silly I just tried to keep going for days and didn't mention it but the other nght I just thought I must seem like a real misery and try not to come on here when things are going really wrong.

We went with DS to the doctor and they gave him something to help him sleep and then I got him to take me out yesterday to meet friends. I think it did us both good to talk to other people who are grieving too. He is my second child to experience the loss of a friend and employer. It leaves their lives very empty for a while.

While I was out DD came here and cleaned and tidied the kitchen, dining area and hall.I really haven't been able to manage much recently. It feels so much better to come into a clean house.

I love the flowers onestep. I go to Flower Club but have no idea how to do the floral displays. Very impressive.

*Stumbles through door, comes crashing to a halt and flops on sofa*

Busy, busy busy - we've been trying to get ALL the weekend's tasks done, in readiness for His Great Dane-ness Jay-Cloth and his Human visiting tomorrow.:rotfl:

I've also baked tomato bread, carrot'n'orange cake and Birsay biscuits.

I need a drink now - where's the wine?:D

Triker words fail me. :mad::mad::mad: People who do that sort of thing should be taken outside and shot.

Kleenex and hot toddies for all those with colds/flu/DH's with man-flu.;)

I prob won't get online tomorrow, so Toots all the best for the hossy visit. Take care, and keep yer paws off the male nurses!;):D:D:D

Gods, you can tell I've drunk best part of a pot of coffee today, can't you?:eek::D

If I don't make it tomorrow (got the Earthlore Moot to go to in the evening assuming I'l still relatively sane by then), then I'll see you on the new Fred.:wave:
