  • Morning lovlies :)

    happierdaystocome - hope pup settles soon. Healing vibes
    Shysarah - well done on work, like was said before, no telling yourself off... you're doing it! You should be proud :)
    hollydays - broken bones hun? You take it easy :) Delegation is the key
    cyclingyorkie - i'd say if he's under stress dont take it personally but I know that's easier said than done :) Great that your kids rallied round like that :T
    Cat - toffee never ate that pancake, I had to rescue it before it became a manky slimey thing :rotfl:Ozzie doing his snow dog impression this morning then :) Cute :)
    Piggers - those vids are sooooo cute x
    LW
    - I hope you're doing better this morning x

    Right I really should write down my thread replies cos now my brains fried and I cant remember anything else ..... so I'm really sorry if I missed you but spoons, hugs, sticks as required (Ohhhh and if your OH is being a PITA, I have a riding crop you can borrow to smack him back into shape!)

    Glad it's kitchen today because I've been asked to make chocolate chip muffins :beer: bound to trash the kitchen!
    We've been eating too many "treat size" (ridiculously expensive) choccies.
    Any idea's about chocy treats I could make to knock off that cad*ury craving???
    Also I've got 600g of plums and a bowl full of apples I need to use up. I'm thinking jam at the moment??
    But any ideas for apples or plums greatly received :)

    CY Sorry you had such a rubbish Birthday yesterday, men have such great timing don't they, fair enough he's got a lot going on but to grump about it on your Birthday is just not on, hope you make him make it up to you, your children sound wonderful xx

    Shysarah I too am impressed with how well you seem to be adjusting to work, well done gal xx

    Dancemum (((((((hugs))))))) you have a lot going on at the moment, chin up and try to ride it out, sorry to hear you may have to give up dancing, you must be gutted.

    Poohbear *mwah* just cos xx

    Welcome new people :wave:

    I know there were others who I wanted to give a mention to, but brain wouldn't play doh!

    K, got work in half an hour and I hope beyond all hope that she's got her hoover fixed, it's a 3 hr job and a massive house and it took me 1 hr just to hoover the downstairs carpets last week and then I had to finish it off with the hose attatchment, felt like I'd done a 10 hr workout by the time I'd finished lol. The sun is out again tempting me to play with the washing line.

    Laters lovelies! :hello:
