    Just popped in to say a quick hello again. I do keep meaning to come in and post what I'm up to but then the next thing I know it's stoopid o'clock. House staying tidy, dogs and children well. Quite a few changes going on but all good changes with work etc. DH has been told he's working away for two years but he'll be home at weekends and has done it before so we'll be fine...at least he's guaranteed work for that long. Ramble ramble ramble....lol.

    Juliejim - just noticed you said you had a whiffy house. We have that problem with our older dog and find buring lemongrass and spearmint essential oils works really well. I know you still have to clean up but it just helps the place smell a bit fresher. Only use one drop of spearmint to about three of lemongrass or the place will smell of chewing gum.

    Hugs to everyone - really missing catching up with everyone xx

  • Had call from warranty company manager. He has promised to contact the manufacturer and explain that they aren't supplying them with the parts. Emailed him the details of the comparable part from a 3rd party.

    Bought 3 new tops and a new set of joggers for indoors/bed, along with a fancy doormat as I am fed up of the outside one not doing anything useful in terms of stopping mud. Amazingly enough, as soon as DD walked in, she stopped and wiped her feet without being told. :D Oh, and I got a small farmyard's worth of meat and eggs. So we shouldn't starve this weekend :cool:

    WM X 2
    TD X 2
    DW X 1

    I have discovered a new love - potato bread! Now looking for proper recipe, as DD liked them too.

    Just going to have a cuppa and then crack on with dinner.
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    I feel like crying. I am so tired, and all I seem to do is meet myself coming back.
    Out tonight, so flying will have to commence tomorrow after work.
    Seems a lot of people want a piece of me at the moment.
    I MUST remember that NO is a full sentence.
    Hugs to all and one for me
