    I'm just impressed that he showed you his (geeky IMO) techie stuff and you were STILL interested :rotfl:
    Mind you *hurt puppy* impression would tug at ANYONE'S heartstrings...

    I presume we're not going to get a further installment;) what with the 'dot dot dot'. I've seen Mamma Mia - I KNOW what 'dot dot dot' means! :rotfl:

    Two more items listed on e bay - go me!
    and it's much easier now I can upload the pix directly from the camera!
    Ah, but you see, if I wasn't known online as LameWolf, my handle would very likely be Geekette.:D:D:D Oh, and he's still very good at the "kicked spaniel" look.:D

    No, no further installments - we have under-18's viewing on here!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Actually, I need to drag him off the games websites to get some ironing done in a minute. *Thinking* I wonder what I can bribe him with...:rotfl:

    Anyways, we've decluttered HM potato and pasta soup; just a few more boring old chores to get done before the Moot this evening.;)

    He's working from home tomorrow, on early shift, so I may fall a little behind with next week's list, as I'll need to feed us lunchtime (Shepherd Spy on the menu), and be ready to nip into town when he finishes at 14:30.
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)
  • Sitting room and kitchen done and a ton of washing. Ironing next, DD on the mend it seems.

    afternoon everyone

    hex love the dresser and what a good price - have you filled it yet???

    Nope! I have been filling the skip with the remains of the old green bathroom instead :D DH is working through some boxes of IT stuff and deciding what is binnable. I will be re-doing that later and chucking another half away.

    Dusty - hope you feel better soon

    I have made sausage meat this morning, then sausage rolls, and now chocolate cake. Have I mentioned that I love my Kenwood :j. That said, I stand by my point that if I had to choose the stress and money, or no money I would go for no money. It really has been hideous since June. Just glad it is all over now and that DH loves his new job.

    and men claim that women never throw anything away... OH keeps telling me things might come in handy sometime, and my dad keeps agreeing with him... My nice new shed is getting very cluttered. I may have to have a clearout when he isn't looking :cool:

    Glad DH is enjoying his new job.

    (((Hugs))) Dusty. Hope you feel better soon.

    Presentation done... still doesn't really do what I want, but I can make that up on the day :D
  • I've had a terrible week :( !!

    Firstly my hoover broke and then I've been diganosed with depression (I doubt they're connected :rotfl:)

    Got to laugh haven't you. So this little stay at home mum is struggling right now. Hoover replaced yesterday (contigency fund cleared out :eek: )

    Sooooo looking forward to seeing the back of this week. I'll be joining you tomorrow x

    hello:wave:

    (((hugs))) to delicious. You are not alone and the lovely ladies on here are incredibly supportive...as I will be if I can.

    DS has asked me to report back to FCC that he has put out for recycling 6 years worth :eek::eek: of football magazines. I can hear the house's foundations sighing with relief :)

    I'm happy to report that I got back those 3 hours a week paid work that were taken off me last month - they make the difference between managing and not, so I'm soooo pleased:T:j:T.

    Hopefully this will mean that the BD, that's been wound round my legs preventing any meaningful forward motion, will now s!d off.

    I've washed all the dirty clothes, but not hung them out as they'll just hang in the shade out the back - I think we should start a new trend - washing lines out front....as that seems to be where everyone has the sun, including moi!

    Think I'll put some pots to soak, have a cuppa, wash said pots, then get tea on.

    Much love to all

    Fortunately we are so experienced with depression, we keep a basket of sticks to throw for the naughty black dog *chuck*

    Ironing done.

    Still pottering, made a cake, shepherds's pie in the AGA

    DS3 has a friend around and they are outside making the most of the weather.

    DS1&2 doing homework
    DH sorting out the cupboard full of videos

    Thanks for the hugs, still feeling grim so planning a real easy week just pottering and doing nice jobs so I'm well for half term.
