  • Hellooooooooo

    Rushing in again!

    Happy Birthday to Kaz and Miss A - make sure you have plenty of cake and chocolate!

    Flying...................um nothing on the lists BUT I have done all my banking paperwork, deleted a zillion emails and also tidied my work computer and desk and drawer. and got some tricky work stuff done so I came home happy.
    Dog food delivered, washing done and about to clean 2 fish tanks. This takes ages so I keep putting it off.

    Probably wont be around much this weekend (cadet stuff) so have a good one!

    1 step
    If you wait for perfect conditions, nothing would ever get done! :T
    I'm not short - I'm condensed awesome! :p

    Not huge amounts of flying done today, but general office decluttering of administrative gubbins etc etc ad nauseum nearly done. Also been achey because of weather, so ears down and feeling sorry for myself! Shame on me! Did a lot of embroidery and knitting, and cooking instead:) Also been rooting around the site to find ways of making extra money towards my personal challenge, which, of course, took time, and was somewhat distracting!
    DS1 (18 next week) is down in London for the first time ever with a pal, so I've also spent some time sending him tube instructions etc etc! Very funny!!! Got asked to be a model in Top shop within four hours of being down there! Bit of a cliche that one!

  • zoelikesjam nice to see you again - will put you back on the list:D
    TNG - and you as well:D
    helen hoping that they are making progress with Dad's treatment - your poor Mum will be stressed and mega tired hence the blip - a spell away from the hospital will help - hope you are able to go back soon - poor DD that sounds nasty:eek: (((hugs))) and prayers xx
    pigpen thank goodness about the inquest - hope you and your Mum can take some comfort from the fact that his death was instant and he didnt suffer. Good for you for putting the records straight about KH.

    Gotnodosh thats lovely news - Congratulations Nan and welcome to your little grand-daughter - does she have a name - hope Mum and baby are now doing well.:T:D

    it was shopping day and also delivered present to NOF for her Golden Wedding anniv - what a shock - she is so frail following her illness and then breaking her hip - it really shocked me - she is like something from belsen:(
    put shopping away and basically collapsed on the sofa - cream crackered and fell asleep - what a waste.

    get well hugs for all the poorlies especially all the little ones.

    Love and hugs to everyone especially LadyL.

    Mumof2 - hugs for your little man - lots of get well vibes for him and wash away that stuff vibes for you

    I have just updated the freezers - we have so much food its disgusting so had a little chat with DH [he does the cooking] and told him we have £49 left of the food budget to last 2 weeks - do-able says he until I pointed out all the pack up stuff that has to be bought along with his beers!! He's having a little rethink about it now hehe

    DD is being a drama queen, I know how much it hurts but boy can she act lol

    DD has been back at Uni almost a week, her bed was stripped last Sunday, so thats done, along with the mattress turning the bed frame was washed.

    Cleaning the windows, I noticed ciggie ash on the window sill, opened the window and the roof of my garage looks like the floor outside our local off-licence. :eek:

    I've just given up smoking and my daughter has just started, you couldn't make it up.

    No problem can withstand the assault of sustained thought.
    Only after the last tree has been cut down. Only after the last fish has been caught. Only after the last river has been poisoned. Only then will you realize that money cannot be eaten.
