    Morning All
    Got up early, fed the hens, made tea and went back to bed! Got up again about 10 and haven't done much apart from put on the DW and 2 loads in the WM. Cleaned my room and helped DD do hers last night so that's a good job done. Will try to get out in the garden later as it is a big mess!
    Hugs to you Miecherox - stay strong, they may be trying to get rid of you before your maternity leave?
    Happy Birthday NPM, have a super day. :bdaycake:

    Enjoy your weekends all, take care. XX

    Washing hung up. DW emptied and filled and on. More of the hall done.

    Silver, glad I wasn't the only one wondering. Now CandyGirl is talking about Parsley Cakes, what are those??? :)

    The spider had one of those horrible hairy round body's, it was about an inch or so all round and then really long hairy legs so I reckon all told it was about as round as a wine bottle bottom. I'm not usually to bad with spiders but this one just gave me the heeby jeebies.

    Washing sorted and folded from the airers. Washing hung up. Burgers made and waiting to be cooked. Rent paid on the automated system. Put the broods clothes out ready for going out.

    Slowing down a bit now. Rang DH to see when he is coming home but he has a while to go yet. Really pee'd off as the brood are going to need a bath and deep clean before going out and we still need to eat.

    Tigerfeet I love your updating lists! Although like others have mentioned you're making me feel guilty that i'm not really getting much done today!

    Camelot1001 I agree that they are getting rid of me due to being pregnant, it's smacks of constructive dismissal particularly as yesterday I was told all training days and study days had been withdrawn because i'd been off sick in the week!!! Will have to put it out of my mind if I can till I speak to rep on Monday.

    It has certainly made me reassess my priorities

    Thank you all x

    Happy Birthday NPM xxx

    Sorry not to have posted for a couple of days. Been feeling very tired:(
    Today has not been much better but I am pottering around. The boys are making a BMX ramp in the garage with their dad to much mutterings. I have supervised the washing and got some out on the line. The weather is cooler but its still lovely really.

    Tomorrow Im supervising some cleaner as dear cleaner is away on holiday:eek::eek::eek: How will we manage without her? I have some lovely gammon steaks for lunch so plan to make parsley sauce and macaroni cheese for tea tonight.

    Big son is giving me grief again and has lost his job. I try to be positive but despair really. Hope you have a good day x
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

    Hi Cranky
    Lol about the cat & as for the SW disliking me, well I can't blame her I can be abrasive, what annoys me is that she has disliked me since before Christmas & I didn't meet her til March, obviously my fame spread before me.

    Happy Birthday NPM
    ((( Hester, Miecherox & Candygirl)))
    Serious case of the cba's now although I started off well, so what's done is done & what isn't will have to wait :) Its raining here :( so no planting so I think an afternoon of catch up tv & knitting is on the cards, am knitting DP a cardigan & I have to say it's a big leap from BB's gauntlets & a couple of little hats to a full mansized cardigan! However I am spurred on by the fact that he is seemingly in awe of the progress so far (finished the back) nice to know I can still surprise him after nearly 7 years lol
    Hugs, spoons & hi5's as needed or wanted.
    Tigerfeet you carry on love, you will NOT make me feel guilty :)

    Sometimes not moving backwards is as much an achievement as moving forwards is on other times. (originally posted by kidcat)

    It's only a bargain if you were going to buy it anyway!
