So far listed 58 items of my stuff on ebay
23 for exhubby on his account
Now about to list stuff on the business account for work (I know it doesn't get free lisitng but it has to be done, with the poor weather, I hope lots of people will be in looking at ebay as they have nothing better to do!)
Then I have a further 20 items or so, that arrived at mine for listing as well to do!!

Happy Birthday Triker :bdaycake:
Morning all, Thank you for the Birthday wishes, Rhys had a lovely time yesterday and had to get his candles lit 6 times just so he could keep blowing them out. :rotfl:
He has been spoilt and had a great time, i'll post a pic later.

Went and seen hubby yesterday morning and decided not to bring Rhys as hubby has a big fat lip. Went straight into the hospital and hubby was having dinner so i went right past him and up to the nurses. I rang yesterday morning and they wouldn't tell me anything because they had never met me, i was so annoyed.:mad:
Well i changed that and had a good chat with them and explained that i couldn't come up when it was visiting hours because of the kids, so there allowing me up whenever i want. I now know what meds hubby gets and when. I then explained it to hubby who hadn't been told what had changed, which was making him worse. He seems abit more settled now but still not sleeping right. The doctor won't be in until wednesday so at least i know he's in at least until then but i would think it will be another couple of weeks yet.

On the flying front, i've gutted and cleaned the utility room and back hall. Washing now all nearly done. Sister and BIL been up most days helping out with the kids, which has been great. My plan today is just pottering and see what i get done. Next week i think will be spent doing more painting and finishing small jobs. Door man coming tuesday and at least i can open the door now with a screw driver.

I haven't had much time to catch up with the thread so i hope everyone is ok and hugs, spoons, sticks where needed.

So far.....
With the help of DH we have pulled the cooker out and cleaned down the sides and behind it. It was grim :eek:
We have also taken the glass out of the door and that is soaking.
Bits from the top of the cooker are soaking.
I need to go and finish the cooker off.....
I have also done the fridge. Not really anything to throw, but there were milky crusty bits

I have been into town and posted 5 items that sold on ebay. I have also got some bits of food from M&S. trying to decide whether to bbq for the PILs tomorrow or do a roast dinner.

Right - am off to finish the cooker and fit the oven liner I bought aaages ago. then will see what's next.

Throwing it down here and DH is out in his lycra :rotfl:

Off out to a 40th tonight, so I need to fit in a kip, ironing and wash my hair.

My cooker awaits........oh and the shopping needs putting away. caffeine required too.

Beautiful Mamaninie

Vanilla - glad Rhys had a nice day and DH is in right place
