Done. Twice - still no joy

The problem is that it's a new house so I don't have a "rhythm" if that makes sense? Once I'm bedded, in I'll have set places where I naturally will leave things like my mobile, so I'll know where to look. If only it was fully charged I'd have had half a chance. Ho hum.

I reckon I've put it on top of a box, then it's slipped inside and I've moved the box. Of course, in 5 years time when I've unpacked - I'll find it! :rotfl:

Ooops - Kev's up next. Hope it's not a tearjerker like last week....

Hope you find your phone. It might be in a coat pocket thats where I lose my keys and phone etc when I change coats or jackets.

Just found OH's travelcard in the wash - he has been looking for it for a month! Really should get to bottom of laundry basket more often...:o

Hello!
Searched and searched for the blessed mobile - to no avail. Looked in all coat pockets four times over, in boxes, laundry, toys etc etc. (I may have thrown it in the bin That has been known - I threw my passport away once! :eek:)

BUT to get it in perspective, it is only a phone, so I'll get another SIM and use one DH keeps as a spare for times like these. It's just that it has become my phone book and means of all communication, so it's like a lifeline has been cut - but it can be remedied

Thanks all for your positive comments and welcome Positive Attitude

Sooooo glad it's the end of my working week. I'm lucky to love my job but the last 2 days have been tough. Today I had to console a colleague who was sobbing uncontrollably about work and is usually so easy-going and contained. People can be so unnecessarily mean, harsh and hurtful. It's just insecurity on their part - and that's the boss!!!

After work, I collected the girls and made tea, then went to school to a meeting about behaviour. It was very interesting and is basically about praising good behaviour and ignoring bad. Obviously, I was VERY interested in this after little DD's shenanigans So I've got a few useful phrases to utilise - though I may need a jar of Valium to remain so calm and positive and never raise my voice :cool:

Went to M&S for lunch with said colleague and in a grand gesture I paid (why am I so generous when I can't afford it??? :wall:). Luckily, she gave my half the money but said she appreciated my kindness - bless. So £6 spent but it was a mission of mercy.

Hope you had a good day

your poor boss getting upset but you saved the day and looks like she appreciated it.

Hi Taxi, hope you're feeling ok at the moment

I realise that didn't quite make sense when I wrote it, but it was my boss who did the upsetting - but is blissfully unaware, it seems.
If that's power - I don't want it. I could never belittle a person in that way.

The good thing is that an hour away from the office, did my friend the World of good.

I'm fine thanks
