Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.And things go wrong no matter what I do.Now and then it seems that life is just too much.But you've got the love I need to see me through.:j :j0 -
Evening ladies,
I am back from my short trip to the seaside. Twas fun (ish)
My DB is hard work and my DM can be quite demanding.
Home to the PILs as they cat sat - very grateful. Cooked a very simple meal of filled pasta with a rocket salad and doughballs which seemed to go down very well. You've gotta love Mr Ts finest
They are here until Saturday, but I had a pre-arranged trip to meet 2 girlfriends at the Traf Centre tomorrow, so i am leaving DH with his DPs. I told him it would be nice quality time with them.....:D
I haven't even unpacked the suitcase yet. Our bed currently has the suitcase on it, assorted bits of carp and 2 cats. Maybe even a 3rd cat? Who knows?
I have decided that I am sick of living in this mess. The carp just gets moved around the house depending on which rooms we need to use. ENOUGH.
The first of my schoolfriends hit the big 50 today. 3 months until mine. I have decided it is time I started acting like a grown up. I've always wanted to be a grown up. :rotfl:
So, I need to go and fly otherwise we won't sleep tonight. Tomorrow will be minimal flying due to gallivanting......:D
Glad you had a good trip to the seaside! And enjoy your day out today!
Tou must have been in the same year at school as me - I hit the big 50 next March! Acting like a grown up? Don't think I'll be bothering.....:p:p I've managed without it so far!:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -

Morning all
Up early today (6.00) as DS came here straight from night shift instead of going home and we got up so he could get into our bed! His fiance is coming later today after work so he's getting a sleep in now.
Trying to be quiet (how difficult is that?) but I've got some washing out on the line, I've made a sponge (lemon curd in the middle, icing on the top) and some hobnobs. Washing up all done and the kitchen S&Sd. I don't think there's much else I can do for now - got to dose the cat again in an hour.0
