    Evening messies

    Woo hoo, i've actually done something worth mentioning on the messies thread :D.

    It is 10 past 10 and i have just got in from the front garden after weeding and tidying it up.
    My son's g/f passed her driving test today so they took the car that was sitting on my front drive hiding some weeds that had got soooooooo big they actually looked like trees :eek::rotfl::eek:.
    My pet duck loved it out thier with me but whenever someone passed by he would make a beeline for them, so i guessed i looked a right plank running after him :rotfl::rotfl:.

    I also got the back garden done with the [STRIKE]help [/STRIKE] hindering of my hens :D, I feel it was a constructive day today:A:A.

    I just hope i have more days like today rather than massive CBA days :o

    Hope you are all well messies and i REALLY must catch up with this thread, i am waaaay behind with it:(.

    Hart...good luck with doctor, should be able to sort you out....nothing worse than wanting to cry all the time.

    Have finally got the downstairs of house reasonably clean and tidy, need to keep hoovering every day as two dogs and a cat lose a lot of hair! Should also get hooks back up for mirror and pictures in living room.....came down for painting last November!

    Sleep well all

    Hi Messies , I've really missed you all but had to turn off the lappy or would have done nothing lol.

    Hart hope you feel better soon honey.

    Ex trolly . Pleased things are getting better for you too.

    Why is it when you want to have a mega clean up everyone suddenly decides to visit or they suddenly need you to babysit during the day . We moved the tv over to the opposite wall in the living room, moved the couch and the units . removed a computer to my eldests house and then when it came to sorting out the stuff in my husbands desk corner everyone and their granny kept arriving. I'm ready to kill him. If i leave a letter on the table until i stand up to file it he's moaning i should do it straight away. I have 12 files and put stuff away the day it arrives and have a good clear out of them every 3 months. when we were sorting all his computer stuff i came across a huge pile of stuff he.d opened and just dumped it on his desk then he expected me to sort it and put it all away. Cheeky beggar.
    Oh well hopefully living room will be finished by the weekend . Mind you my daughter is leaving 2 kids from 9.30 to 12 whilst she goes to a meeting and my son is leaving his little one from 3.30 till 9 . Then friday aft it's concert at grandaughters school . Ironing pile is growing by the day and i'm playing catch up with the washing.

    Hi

    Hope you feel better soon Hart ask the Dr about getting some counselling OH has put his name down its slow but he finds it much easier to talk to a stranger than to take medication.

    Been to work and midwife today so no cleaning - really need to clean the car. Midwife said there was blood and protein in my urine she thinks its a UTI so sample taken to hospital should get results by Monday - she said I would feel really crappy if it kicks in, hopefully its just a bad sample :( apart from that everything ok.

    Dad saw car today and its looking good - going with dad to talk deals tomorrow - exciting

    Tomorrows jobs - hoover car, dishes, laundry pick up girls 1am - last day of school and dentist 11.20 boo

    Aaaahhhhhhhh! MEN!!! :mad:

    OH (not DH today!!) totally went off on one last night, spat his dummy big style - what over? What holidays we had booked!!

    I had them all sorted and re-arranged them when he changed his job & to fit round getting our new puppy. Now it appears we might be getting the puppy earlier and he basically got himself wound up over which week MIL was having DS. He was convinced it was one week and didnt belive me when I said it was another. Needless to say I was right!!:rotfl:

    He took himself off to bed at 8pm and hasnt spoke to me since (he was up at 3am for work though).

    Why do they find it soooo hard to say "Sorry you were right and I was wrong!" ?

    Anyway rant over. Thanks for listening

    Thank you everyone for your kind thoughts and hugs :D
    Im feeling a little bit better today but then Ive been to work and kept busy :o
    I came home from work last night and OH just sat in his usual seat, laptop open and the washing up in the sink :mad: so I did it :o what a mug I am :o

    Im going to sort the house out a bit now:)
    My DS has sports day today but Ive told him I won't be going as I usually sit on my own as the village mum's don't let outsiders in :( they were all born here and have their little group of friends.

    I can't wait till my DS leaves and goes to high school, just 1 more yr :)

    I sound a right missery lately Sorry :o:o:o
    Right Im off to declutter something, it might help cheer me up :D
