    Lowsey thought you had gone off and had the babe without letting us know, take care of you and rest as much as you can while you can x

    As much as I wish that bubba was out I wouldn't go off without letting you lot know! Are you on FB? Add me - you're likely to find me letting off steam about being the size of a house on there :D

    I am home from work!! well have been for about 20 mins, tidied the kitchen (only to come upstairs and find more mugs and plates :mad: )
    the potatoes are in the oven cooking. - yay it stayed horrible so sausages, jackets and beans is ideal comfort food tonight!! although i weighed my potato and kept having to find a smaller and smaller potato till it weighed 200g :( v. small.

    npm - hugs, i agree with what others have said about being anxious about work, hope you feel a weight off once you've told them.

    Hi Chums just finished the ironing, and now the grotty bit ,putting it away.I have done two trips upstairs with stuff and that's as far as I got.I hate putting it all away for some reason,yet don't mind doing it.Dinner will be a chicken curry from the freezer with some rice.I must remember to read the gas and electric meters as they are due for reading and then posting online .Saves all the hassle of estimated bills, and I get a discount as well.Tomorrow I will attack the bathroom as its in need of a good 'bottoming out' as my old Mum would say,plus it stops me from going out awandering in the shops and spending dosh :) In the afternoon I may take myself off swimming as I have not long received my Medway City card which gives me free swimming, so no money spending there either .God its a wonder I don't squeek when I walk I am being so frugal this month :)
    Have a good evening chums ,the sun has finally arrived a bit late but better than never.
    Cheers jackieO xx

    I can't think of a single person that you look like Bitsy. I have been wracking my brains :)

    Yes me too. Well Im off to bed as Ive just had a row with Kids Dad and I feel very frustrated about a couple of things. They are playing on my mind. Anyway had a lovely afternoon with Mooloo's Dgd. She was very good and played very nicely. Hugs 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.

    I am going to pretend it's Drew Barrymore or someone of that ilk....I've never been told I look like someone famous so don't expect it to change now LOL

    Hugs Molly, sorry you've had a row with kids dad, hope you can resolve it soon xxx

    Hi all,

    Back from a lovely week in Sardinia, spoilt a bit by the fact that I banjaxed the back axle of the car by getting into too close contact with part of a stone gatepost....OH reckons Im paranoid about staying on the right side of the road...you don't want to know what its going to cost plus I will have to ring the garage to order the part, and go back in a week to bring in the car to have it done....wasn't planning on going back before September/October but have to have the car available if anyone else wants to go...weather and food wonderful as ever as was meeting with Caterina and her family...can't get to London meets so we seem to meet in Sardinia!

    Hugs to all in need or want of one, good luck to all in the throes of exams, special hugs for JackieG and NPM
