Ah.. but their friends who have met me do say they wish I was their mum.. and my lot say 'have her take her keep her and don't ever bring her back!'
Apparently.. and mortifyingly.. I am a !!!!!!, 'kewl/cool/wikkid/ace/super.. and wonderful' ... not to mention that I make cakes, mash and yorkshire puddings better than anyone else in the world and my spag bol is THE BEST..
I just lack social skills and cannot be arrised with playground politics or most people in general.
That's the bit I empathise with most!
(Although of course, you actually mean that your cakes, mash and spag bog are the best in Piggersland, as, obviously, I make the best in the World

Juliejim wishing you a very happy birthday

Toochnot good, hope your gas stays on now
Kazw a fond farewell, safe journey & looking forward to hearing about your travels x
:j:j:j:j for Santa Soappie, I'd like to offer heartfelt congratulations xx
Maz well done for the positive outlook & good luck
Poohbear do you remember me posting the photo of the owl on ours @ the old old house? Big eagle owl who was supposedly a missing pet, wonderful aren't they
Mudders ((biggest hugs)) your Ds is enough to make the strongest heart melt bless him x
Dusty sorry but the dusting story made me giggle
only because its something I would do. Films mine love - Elf, ghostbusters, batteries not included, spaceballs, karate kid, flight of the navigator, star wars
Gratefulforhelp sorry I'm not a fashion person either, I get upset at paying more than £19 for a bag, I can't see how they justify such price
((hugs)) for those who would like one & sticks spare too xx
I have a :j of my own, as those on facebook may have guessed I passed! Another 60 points added to my degree!
Been ever so busy but not around much. Realised we've been paying OTT on gas & electric so been looking for switch options. That was realised when sorting paperwork, think I have a few more sessions needed to finish it. I ordered some gifts yesterday (thanks hex) & some today (thanks piggers) We have a cheap/cheerful table to eat at which is the perfect size & been decluttering as much as possible in frequent bimbles as the bin men it states WILL take all extra bags when they come round. Only had 1 major meeting but it's left me very anxious & upset at my local authority director who was all sweetness and light when I last seen her, so there will be words had. 2 faced moo bag would have been the choice ones during the meeting but I am calmer & going to be rational.
Laid in bed, awake since 2.30am, got to sleep at 12, DS2 keeps sleep talking & DP is snoring, farting & generally annoying so think I might get up....One day I might be more organised...........

Good morning :beer: I have 5 days off work, and have a list to fill 17 days :eek: :rotfl: will be starting on my lists once I'm sure DD is on her train (the replacement bus didn;t run yesterday :mad: so DH will be ringing the train company - he's calm but very determined, so they'd better watch out :eek:
). Luckily DD's tutor was alos late so she made it into the life drawing class

Happy birthday JulieJim
I am not going to have time to do much today but I want to get the main top hall finished tonight. It does look a lot better up there just for cleaning the bookcases out.'If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need' Marcus Tullius Cicero0 -
Happy birthday JJ
Oh, and yesterday just got better! Went out to let the chickens out and fed them and there, lying in the yard, unspotted last night was a perfectly formed egg! Our first ever! Will post a photo later.
