Evening,
Well the house is looking palace-ish except for our bedroom! Inlaws are here, and no paid work for me now until Monday :j
I'm getting my car serviced tomorrow, so that is another job ticked off.
Msgnomey - you sound sooo much brighter
Mudbath - Hope all goes well in Chester - I think my friend has been to that place with her dog too?
Rachelet - I put stuff on coathangers and hang it off the door frames upstairs
Need to go and start cooking now. I like to pretend I'm Nigella but it doesn't always go to plan :rotfl:

Thanks Boddy
Good to see you post Pooh, I wondered where you were earlier today
We are still the House of Chaos but the dots are starting to join up. Can just squeeze a few more bags into the skip before it goes but struggling to find stuff now that couldn't be recycled. Need to make our bed, then have a good tidy in our bedroom once the boys have gone to bed.'If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need' Marcus Tullius Cicero0 -
DD seems fine now....nearly took her to the docs as she had quite a bang....will keep an eye on her through the night though.
Been to SW and lost 2lb....yey.....been thinking about this new job and my new timetable, after half term, will look like this.....
Mon am work pm college...DD 4:15 swimming, church
Tue am work, lunchtime work ...DD 4:15
Wed am work, FREE ....DD 4:15
Thu am work, lunchtime work, placement 6:30 SW
Fri am work, lunchtime work, placement...DD 4:15
This means that I have to get this house in order before then as I won't have all day to sit on my @rse and rush about 30 mins before collecting DD making it look like I have been busy all day!!!!!!!!....DD's room looking FAB and I have made a start on the wardrobes in the spare room.
Hope Rhys is ok xx0 -
After a good start to the week, I've done nothing today except washing pots and SS the kitchen and bathroom sink. I'm very tired so decided not to push myself and over do it. Luckily the spare room is still junky from moving house/renovations so will do it on Sat once the shower's installed and I can get rid of all the packaging from that and I can see the floor again0

Phew. Been a really busy day here for me. Been in to see my GP, had a natter, got signed off for another month and spoke to him about wierd moments. Apparently now I am getting mild panic attacks which he seems to think might be related to my high happy pill dose but its a catch 22. :mad:
Then went to see Mum and ended up going into town and doing some shopping. Got some bits for Christmas Hampers, a lovely pair of trousers for £10 and some new yankee candle melts.. none of which I should have got but I had a dose of shopping therapy. :rotfl:
Although i finally tracked down some of the legendary stardrops so I got two!! Also in a pound store I saw stardrops stain remover for clothes, didn't need any myself but worth mentioning..:TAnyway enough gibble chatter, I don't have a spare or childrens room but i do have a gibble pit.

I have stopped buying meat from Aldi as it always seemed to go off far to quickly, so yes IMHO meat from Aldi can be a bit dodgy...Go hopefully into each new day, enjoy something from every day no matter how small, you never know when it will be your last0
