    Good evening :)
    It IS quiet here today!

    List for tomorrow:
    clear dining table
    sort post
    sweep/mop kitchen floor
    dust bedroom
    vacuum upstairs
    finish accounts
    tax credits form
    sort holiday arrangements for dog

    That should do for starters :D

    DH is back from the valleys, and has cut the grass & watered the garden :T that may be the extent of the gardening for this weekend. I have been working on my accounts (a major frog!)

    Going to watch Torchwood from last night now...

    Hugs, sticks and spoons to those that need them :)

    Quick! Climb out the window!!!!!! :p

    They won't notice you are gone until at least 7am - that's plenty of time to choose between making back to Piggersville or coming down here!
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    I can't leave Squeak to their... 'themness' ...that would be mean!!!

    I don't need to climb out of a window.. I could use the door it isn't like anyone would notice!!

    I am totally f**ked off...I have now been sitting here on my own for 2 hours... pretty much other than 15 minutes his mother felt obliged to come ask me stupid questions about inane things..

    And she wants to take squeak to her biddies 'coffee morning' tomorrow..gggrr... she is my baby NOT a frivolity...

    see, now I am griping because I am fed up and ignored...

    No doubt he is waiting for me to go to bed before coming back.. I did subtley mention to his mother about his 'friend' .. and that his behaviour is not acceptable so she can earache him.

    I am in 2 minds to tell him to go to his sisters tomorrow without me.. if he can't be bothered to spend time with me then I can't be bothered to spend time with his friends.. I am now quite cross...

    There is so much I could be doing at home and instead I am stuck here.. I could be painting.. or ebaying.. or cleaning.. or doing nothing :D

    Morning All

    Well the dog is sitting staring at the ironing pile - wonder if there's a spider in it - or perhaps he's just telling me I should have done it. I'm full of cold and fed up with it - I hope it goes soon.

    Not sure what the plan of action is today but I need a mew phone so we may go and get one.

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    Morning :wave:

    Ironing is done
    Cat is fed
    Floors done

    Spent 3 hours yesterday evening in the garden, grass cutting, weeding etc, glad I did as it is now raining!

    Seems my account on ebay is 'restricted' owing to some pr*** leaving me a load of low stars, as I missed some holes in a couple of skirts I was selling, so if I want to list this weekend, I am being charged full rate, I only list at free weekends, so not a happy bunny, yet all my feed back is good. Ebay will remove any dodge feedback if you put a good enough case, but not stars,!
    At least there is not a lot left to sell, so my options are to wait till the stars work their way out of the system, which might take ages, or open another account with an unconnected bank account, I am sure I have a dormant current account, so will have to have a think as to what I want to do.

    Have a good day x
