  • HUGS RACHEL, you were doing so well. I hope things settle down, it makes me so angry when husbands don't treat their wives with any respect. You could always take your frustration out on cleaning the loo ...with a certain person's toothbrush ;):D

    Right I'm off for my next HHC...
  • Read the fred, hugs (but no advice :p) to JoJo x

    Happy birthday xxJoxx :j
    Even more cause for excitement, and enjoy every second.

    WM ON, airer loaded.

    Thanks :D it's hit me that I'm not getting any younger (duh!) so im going to make the most of my 20s. :D

    How long can you drag out a coffee before they chuck you out? ;) it's already been an hour :p
  • Also massive hugs for Rachel x

    Dusty that's certainly an interesting way to think of it :D my flat's on a main road near the hospital so could be 'interesting' :eek: no neighbours so to speak, apart from the other flats - there's a whole terrace of flats. We're on the end :D I'm so excited, and I still have over 4 hours left to bum about :p glad I've gotten over the scared bit though, thanks gratefulforhelp :)

    I've added last weeks kitchen list to this weeks.
    I got a call from DD2 school this morning, she'd been sick and needed to be collected. She'd said she felt sick when she got up but as she's prone to skive if she can and she has a low attentance through illness I made her go in.
    She seems ok now so I had her cleaning the fridge and wiping down the doors in the kitchen :D
    I've been to collect a letter from the post office, my friend is using my address for her divorce so she'll be pleased to get the letter tonight.
    I've phoned the vet about swollen cat, have an appointment at 4.20 so I hope the man coming to measure the window for the new glass between 2 and 4 is a bit speedy
    I also phoned the c.s.a again! And again was told my money would be with me in 5 days :mad:
