  • Good Morning All

    MSD - RIP xx

    Hope you have a good visit with your Dad today Redruby.

    Friday at last, kids have gone to school and I am just about to jump in the bath. Popping into town first thing to order some balloons for my sister and pick up a couple of bits from £stretcher. Hairdressers this afternoon so probably not too much OS going on today.

    Didn't get any firm answers from the hospital, more scans needed so just have to wait until the next appointment comes through.

    Have piri-piri chicken with spicy rice for dinner tonight, our take on Nando's.

    Have a good day all.

    RIP MSD - hope you have a lovely send off :A

    Ah it was lovely to sleep in my own bed like a starfish last night :D after 3 nights in a small single bunk bed :rotfl:.

    I have day off today and am off to Cardiff shopping with the girls.It's one of the girls' birthdays so we celebrating but she is pregnant so we won't have wine with lunch! Just hope the journey and shopping don't make me feel too sick :( my friend is driving.

    OS wise - WM went on overnight and I've just hung stuff out on the airer (it's damp here). I need to massively tidy tomorrow as I have a friend from camp america coming to stay Sunday night for 3 nights :j.

    Have a good day all

  • Morning Everyone

    A NSD day today but we have a double glazing salesman coming to give us a quote today - I find them irritating and pushy to say the least but are a necessary evil these days since the government decided we can't be trusted to put our own windows in :mad:

    He wants to be careful because we lost a lot of money when Cold Front went to the wall and as a result we are now very wary and as soon as he starts to give us speil he is out of the door.
    My back is already up because we made the appointment for this morning and he tried to get us to agree to him coming last night saying a neighbours child had to be rushed into hospital which is a complete lie because all our neighbours have grown up children so he really wants to watch out.:mad:

    And Chill ...........Ohm Ohm Ohm

    Apart from that I have a few more cupboards to sort in the kitchen, then that is all of them sorted and cleaned so all that is left to do spring cleaning wise in the kitchen.
    Bathroom
    Cloakroom
    Porch
    Front Room
    Dining Room / My Room
    Kitchen
    Just the hall and bedrooms left to do and the kids will do theirs, so just the main bedroom for me to sort :D

    Well I am off for some brekkie
    Have good days all x
