Glad your course went well at the weekend.
When i lived at my mums for a few months last year, my niece decided to take my ds1 and the dog upstairs and pour a full bottle of shampoo and a full bottle of shower gel all over the dog. I wasnt pleased and took forever to get it all out of the dogs fur.PAD Maker0 -
The things the kids do eh ? My DD2 ( little tike that she was from the minute she was born ) decided to grind toothpaste in to the carpets ont he landing, down the stairs and continue into the hallway. We had lived in the house for 2 days and had beautiful fluffy brand new carpet !:eek:
Dotn get me started on kids tv, like bonnington my eldest loved Rosie and Jim and Tots TV, also Barney ! Grrr ! By the time DD2 came along she was mre into Balamorey and I still cant get the theme tune out of my head ! The books are a different story though, I could read them all over and over again, We're going on a Bear Hunt being a Firm Favourite and still is when they are poorly !!
Good luck with finding someone to take the Microwave and Dishwasher, our Microwave has been deposited at the dump and Dishwasher is still poorly in the kitchen, so the washing up continues !!:(LBM July 2011 - Finally took control Nov 2011 DFD Sometime in the distant future ! :eek:

Hello everyone :j
Had a few technical problems with netbook (:mad:) but hubby has re-set everything and i'm hoping it will be all good from now on. Although we're not operating it on windows anymore so feeling a bit nervous using a free one off the internet :eek:!
Will have to find receipts & see whether or not i actually managed a nsd since the last time i posted (don't think i have been away that long so prob not lol)
I've now got my £15 glasses from Te$co lol and they are actually pretty similar to my last pair which were £100+ :eek::eek:
DH has informed me he might have to work all through easternot impressed with that. His job really is rubbish! Been to the dump today
and got rid of lots of broken bits (including microwave) and been to charity shop and got rid of 6 bags of stuff including a xmas tree & car seat! Isn't it amazing the things we hold on to, just in case we need them :eek: :rotfl: Living room is a complete tip though as by the time we got back from dump & charity shop runs it was dinner time and i was exhausted so couldn't be bothered finishing it all off
:rotfl:...........bathing kids then i am going to bed with the twilight series (up to number 3 now can't remember its name!) and then over the weekend we will watch breaking dawn (number 4!) OOOOOOOOH so exciting :rotfl:
There are some people who take dishwashers and stuff on facebook but after hearing a few dodgy stories about how they use the time to scope out what else you have :eek: i've decided to try and fit it to the car somehow and get it to the dump myself at the weekend lol. We shall see though i may have to call them still!
Right anyway best go wash little terrors and get everyone ready for an early night- husband included (grumpy so and so) :AMORTGAGE BALANCE when we moved Aug 2024, £120,000. January 1st £118,267.06.

I sympathise with you if your DH is away over Easter. Mr Pinot goes way the day the kids break up from school. Is back for Easter Sunday, then goes again on Easter Monday, and returns the day they go back to school ! I should be used to it by now, but somehow never gets much easier !
DD1 read all of the Twilight series, she couldnt put the books down. I got about halfway through the first one and gave up , I did watch the first movie though, but I am a bit of a lightweight and got scared and jumpy !! Enjoy !!!LBM July 2011 - Finally took control Nov 2011 DFD Sometime in the distant future ! :eek:

If you like the curtains and think they will brighten up the room, I think they're an absolute bargain. I changed the curtains in my lounge and it totally changed the room (mine are a bit more grannyish than the ones you have picked though:rotfl:).
I shouldn't encourage you though:o
I'm sorry to hear about your dishwasher heading off to meet my old dishwasher in heaven:(Debt £26k 18/10/140 -
hello!!!!!!!!!!!!
Only a quick post- computer died. Have had to save all docs, pics etc and re-boot it 3x (grrrrrrr) so am in process of downloading adobe, avg, libreoffice etc etc so comp keeps wanting to switch on and off doing it all so can't stay here longbut good news is i think we've got it working again YAY!
I've managed to get on facebook through dh ipod but i couldn't work out how the internet works on there very well lol so couldn't get on here!!! Will be back tomorrow hopefully with a fully functional computer and to catch up properly without my comp crashing every time i tried to reply to all your diaries & posts on here (grr grr) !
Have a lovely evening and promise i'm fine (although bad news for dh today) and be back tomorrow

computer is fixed! :j
Happy mother's day to any mummies out there :j hope you were spoilt!
My ds1 forgot! As he did about my birthday ! lol. But dd brought home a lovely flower she'd grown from a seedso cute. I also had a nice lie in, some wine in the fridge, some chocs & cards :T
I had a phone call yesterday and it was one of those moments where i just knew who it was, and what they wanted.-i was right and it was DH's mum, his grandad passed away friday night/saturday morning. We were kind of expecting it but obviously it's still upsetting to him. I'm so glad we found the money for him to go visit before this happened. :A
I've had 2 no spend days since last time i was on here properly. so will add thosemy spreadsheets are a little out because i've had spends but can't find all the receipts nor remember the exact amounts. I was doing so well with my spend diary as well up till then. oh well!
I hope everyone has been well in my absence i will try and catch up today without the silly internet crashing like it was last week! :rotfl: twas really driving me mad, so glad dh looked at it before he disappears on another exercise or course!
Oh and i haven't bought the curtains yet :j:beer:! BUT I did accidently find myself in Next Home storeand well i'm sure you can guess the rest. I do indeed have a lovely set of cannisters for my tea/coffee/sugar now though and some lovely new mugs :rotfl: oh and candles, can't forget new candles
