hoping to get the rest done later. On a positive note - DS age 10 came home and asked to make fairy cakes - because I'd flown the kitchen mess away yesterday I could say yes darling and off we went. Very amused with myself. Another thing I got done recently - put some clothes on ebay - never done it before - well the deadline is up for half of them and all sold! Made £50 so far so looking forward to the total. Am very surprised at the sales prices - the items I thought would go for 99p had really good prices and some of the ones I thought would have high bids didn't. Lots of fun though - now I want to sell everything I own!

Shysarah

Vanila...

Just a quick message as I am actually about to go to my 12 step group.
He would have to have the desire to get clean. Sadly no matter how much those around us want us to get better only we ourselves can do it. The 12 steps is a good programme in my opinion as it is changing my life for the better.
There are 12 step groups for the families of addicts also if that is any help.

Drop me a line whenever.. and I can try to answer any questions you or he may have.
Hugs

Gah! That was horrible. I am never ever cleaning out the oven ever ever again even if it is at level one.

Would someone please kick my bum and tell me I'm being stupid, and also tell me how to avoid all that in the future- short of not using my oven?

*Obligingly kicks Sockdrawer's bum* Best thing I find is to give it a wipe when it's cooled every time it's used.:o
I probably get off light though, because we don't do roast meat or anything like that.;)

LW be thankful its just shredded cardboard. Our dear mutt ate my first ever self-employed pay-cheque. Saying to a client 'the dog ate your cheque was soooo embarassing. We now have a cage on the letterbox:rotfl::rotfl:

Hee hee, ta, but it was Nixie with the shredded cardboard.

I do have yet another canine booked in though - a Cocker Spaniel I've not met before, she's coming in April and again in August.:dance:

YOWCH! and ducks cat_smith's mule
Okaaaay then! I will stop being a woose about it and start making it part of the routine. Still got half a bottle of blah left so will begin again tomorrow.
Thank you for the oven liner idea cat_smith. Hadn't heard of them before, and glad they work with gas shellysue. I'll get on and either order one online or see if our ironmonger has them in.

piggers why does he have 2 FB accounts? Talk to him. He should not be telling anyone but you things like that. He probably is feeling a bit hard done by, but so what?!!!! That kind of behaviour is unacceptable. Talk to him & tell him so. Then it's entirely up to him whether it stops or not. And if it doesn't I think you know what to do. I know you don't do hugs but here's some coping vibes ~*~*~*

Valli

aww shoot
some of you are having a carp time
caught up now

massive massive hugs for Piggers and Vanilla - and Shysarah - well done you!

for those who remember me posting about the young neighbour of my mum's
- not good news. She now has to have radiotherapy, they didn't get it all out...they couldn't and she's only in her early 20s:(:(:(
those of you who pray please add J. to them.

toottifrootti

So sorry to hear that Valli I will def add J to my prayers - and her family too as they must be feeling devastated for her. Snot fair! (((hugs)))

Good luck to vanilla and piggers with your 'talks' tonight (((hugs)))

I had a good hour in the shed chucking stuff out then putting it back tidily for now - until next week that is! at least I can get to stuff and roughly know whats there.

the 2 loads of washing is just finishing off on the airer - was very good despite it being bitterly cold - think we might get snow tonight sockdrawer - lake land do a a good oven liner by the way.
