Does anyone know if you can forward mail sent by TNT just by crossing out the address and writing the new one?

I'm a bit new to this 'real world' business ahhh I've lived such a sheltered life.

I am REALLY f***ed off...

Vacuumed the world.. after carrying the vacuum downstairs.. and having OH move so I could vacuum under his feet and laptop... and he said why didn't I ask him to bring the vacuum down.. erm I did .. this morning!!! I also said he could do the honours of vacuuming and I did that too!!!!!!!
Put dinner on.. OH got a pie because he doesn't like them

Had a grouch..

Sent children to tidy pits.. for window quote tomorrow

2/3rd's through digging out the backroom... I need the rabbits out so I can flea spray the carpet.. the blighters appear to be having a party in there...

Why does noone ever help do any of this stuff? I have just been moaned at because I refuse to badger the boys to go to bed early.. when it means running up and down stairs 1000 times.. !!!!!!.. it isn't like I wanted this and chose to be unable to walk far!! I swear I am going to disembowel him in his sleep if he doesn't start helping!!! It just makes me feel all warm and fuzzy and loved and appreciated having to do everything myself..

Decorator not got back to me so I may well end up wallpapering week after next as well

I am so utterly utterly pee'd off at the moment.. not helped by DS2 being suspended from school tomorrow for swearing at a teacher.. just ARGH!!!!

*hugs* Deep breaths..count to ten....then disembowel!

Pigpen I swear you need to go away for a weekend with or without Squeak and leave OH and the rest of your brood to get on with it. After a weekend or even a day Im sure they would appreciate you a whole lot more than they do now! Ive got a spare room here if needed

Finally got an email from OH who after not even a week away is ready to murder the entire crew of officers and engineers on board as they have done sweet FA since last time he was on that ship. Chart corrections that need to be done every month havent been done since who knows when :mad: so he is really not happy and i dont blame him. He is ment to be doing a 5 month trip on there but I dont think he is going to hack it, I can see him absolutly letting rip at someone sooner rather than later and coming home bang on the end of his 4 month trip rather than extending it to 5 months as originally planned so that he will end up having less time with baby once its here. I dont want to tell him my backs gone again either as he will worry about money and me having more time off work and he doesnt need that either at the moment. I just hope once he managers to catch up on all the crap that it gets a bit better for him as i hate that he gets like this when at work.

Stuff fluffy mules - my vote is for these -



Need to go and cook dinner. Think minion is actually putting some stuff away upstairs. Really should do some flying, but I'm going to leave it until later (if at all :whistle). And anyway, most of it is hers in the first place.

JoJo they are fantastic, I [STRIKE]want[/STRIKE] need the pink ones, i used to have bright red mock croc ones that i loved but i wore them to death. I love docs as they as so funky and comfy.
