******woosh!!!!***** Comes rushing in - late as usual baut have made it none the less!!
Hey Jinks! - Welcome back....
Didnt finish the end of last weeks list and havent even started todays yet! Got back late from OH's last night and LO got back later than me from Scotland... by the time I sorted him out and got him to bed, sorted out school stuff etc, I was exhausted and flopped into bed.
The kitchen seems more like bomb-ridden-Beruit than the heart of the home, but the washing machine is full and clean with several more loads waiting to go....
However I am struggling to keep my eyes open!
Do I have an early night and start tomorrow afresh, or force myself to start the kitchen?
Hmmmm......
Beddy byes sounds good, you is 'cream-crackered'.
Start afresh 2moz....:cool:C.R.A.P.R.O.L.L.Z # 40 spanner supervisor.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."l! ilyë yantë ranya nar vanwë"0 -

Happy Birthday dustykitten
Triker OUCH!
Haven't done much flying
Have been to work
cooked gourmet dinner
and am now off for a bath and tv
I WILL get the oven done this week thoughYesterday is history
Tomorrow is a mystery
Today is a gift
That's why we call it 'The Present'0 -
OH and I have been really silly,(no, more than usual).
We have made our DD(age 20) have a Tena lady moment...
We were singing ' I do believe in furries, I do, I do'
Whilst lying on the floor in the kitchen with 1 kitten (they're 11 mths and weigh 5 kgs each), sat in the middle of our backs.
The old female cat (14yrs) was watching and I'm sure trying not to laugh.
We then decluttered some tea and cake...
Jo... got to bed
jinks... welcome back :T:T
triker - (((hugs))) you need to look after yourself
GFH - ignore them... lack of planning on their part does not constitute an emergency on yours. You need to rest in preparation for your maternity leave.
Can't remember what else I was going to say. Had an email from my bosses boss saying that they're hoping to give me a promotion but need to wait for it to be formally signed off ... one day I'll find someone round here who can actually make a decision :cool:
Think I might have a bath and an early night. CBA to do anymore work, and certainly don't want to do any housework (after all, I did do a load of washing today, and I haven't made any more mess...)0 -
Evenin all,
Jinky - lovely to see you again!

Triker oooooowwwww!! feet up, hope you're being waited on!
Dusty Happy birthday
1stepcloser ((hugs))
Not too much achieved off the list today - but **drum roll please** the RoD is looking a whole lot better:A:T I've moved a cupboard that was in the dining room into the study (RoD) which means that all the rubbish that was in there is now in the cupboard.. unfortunately it also means that all the stuff that was in the cupboard is now in piles on the dining table:o. Job for tomorrow is to clear out the sideboard, so that I can rehome it all. And at some point I will catch up with the lists!
Am absolutely cream crackered.. will be in bed quite early I think.
hugs/sticks/spoons in a big pile by the door; help yourself
