Comments

I will :A , Just get frustrated when I have to stop what I'm doing cause my back decides it doesn't want to work
.
Well do easy jobs first like form filling etc, to give my back a rest from the cleaning.
Right off to get dressed then get some washing on the lineBoiler pot £30.92/£10000 -
Mornin' Matrix
Really like the idea of a "Life is tough but you are tougher" blog - I'd subscribe.
Sat here enjoying the peace & quiet but need to shake a leg and bring some order to this house.

Bitsy - have you phoned the dvla? My ex did about a car over the road (was well out of date, not just a late one) and they came the next day...

Am considering it. It shouldn't be parked there in the first place which in itself is annoying and if they've done a SORN for it they ought to buy a house with a drive instead of a maisonetteSorry for the mini rant, bit of a bugbear for me
No frost last night but a risk of one again tonight. Typical I get planting out and here comes to frost <sigh>
Off to look at fabrics this morning, here's hoping they're not really expensive or I'll have to resort to buying on line.
As for patience well sometimes I have it sometimes I don't. I think it's linked to my hormones/tiredness levels :rotfl:I have a gift for enraging people, but if I ever bore you it'll be with a knifeLouise Brooks

Morning Matrix! I am back at work this morning... and you know what? I am enjoying the return to normality again. I have lots of stuff to crack on with and I seem to have the energy to do so. Which is a nice change from having the "return to work" blues!
I also made a decision yesterday - I have stopped playing facebook games. Not only were they beginning to be a waste of money (you are only able to finish this task or that task when you buy tokens or something... bloody cheek!) but also a waste of that precious resource, time. So... I have removed and blocked lots of games. Makes my facebook page easier to manage... and I will now have time to go and do other things. Like garden, crochet, cook, the chores, read etc. Better for me all round!
Re Patience. I have a wicked temper. I only lose it very occasionally, and that is because I have had to cultivate patience. The way I did it? Counting to 1,000 mostly. If you lose your way, then you have to start again. Seriously, I am never angry for more than a minute, and I have never got beyond 500!Simple, but may not work for everyone.
Right... off to the coalface again. Lots of positivity to you all."A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort"Herm Albright 1876-19440 -
I blockedfb games a little while ago. Good decision.
It seems that the power supply in my work PC is broken, so î am waiting (patiently) for a new one.
So much work. I wonder how many emails x0 -

I would be tempted to phone - if they have SORN'ed it then it shouldn't bother them (although they shouldn't have it on the road as you say).
I am bothered by those not paying certain things that it is the law to pay - small bugbear of mine lol!!CCCS DMP:Feb 07

Just discovered that DS2 won't be going to Primary school in 2012 but in 2013 instead ..................
.................. and actually I am excited to have my wee man at home with me for another year:D
............... my Best Friend has asked me if I am devastated????
......... erm!!!! nope;) Actually I think sending boys to school when they are a bit older is a really good idea. Mind you I like my boys and she is having a challenge with a teenage son and peri-hormonal girlie at the moment so her Mummy Goggles are all steamed up:rotfl:
Now I have two years of "adventures" to plan for :j
MGFINALLY AND OFFICIALLY DEBT FREESmall Emergency Fund £500 / £500
Pay off all Debts £10,000 / £10,000
Grown Up Emergency Fund £6000 / £6000 :j
Pension Provision £6688/£23760 -
It will be nice for you to still have a little one at home a good bit of the day when DS1 goes to high school. If they both went off at the same time I think that would be a wrench.It doesn't matter if you are a glass half full or half empty sort of person. Keep it topped up! Cheers!0
