    Did get back from my sister's 'til nearly 11pm, her horrible boyfriend was there :( He has a real way of making you feel you're intruding :mad:
    My sister and I arranged this visit ages ago so it p*ssed me off and made both me and DD1 feel really uncomfortable. All he kept on about was how long we were taking making the cake, taking the p*ss out the things I couldn't do and going on about how should he cook the fish they were having for dinner. I tried jokingly having ago back but he didn't take the hint :mad: I felt like saying "you can always f*ck back off to your own house!"
    God only knows what she sees in him :eek:

    This morning I took the DD's to school and my dad to his club.
    WM on, all washing up to date now :)
    Now I'm going to have a coffee and bagel :) watch Bergerac lol then start on my study!!
    I have to collect my dad at 2.30 ish, take him shopping.
    When the DD's get home we need to clean the car and pack for our trip to the boyfriendish tomorrow.
    DD2's dad is meant to be dropping on money this evening and I need to go to my friends to collect my Avon.

    OK, as it's bedroom today and spare room tomorrow, I think I'll do the essentials in both today, and see to the bathroom tomorrow, as I won't be around much Friday.;)

    I just tidied a cupboard in the lounge, as I had some cards to put away (Mr LW bought them at the moot on Sunday - 4 general event ones and 2 Solstice, and they'd been sitting on his desk since) and the cupboard looked a bit untidy so I got on and did it, so that's one of tomorrow's tasks done before I even saw the lists!:rotfl:

    I've taken two doses of Oramorph already today, and am putting off taking a third for as long as I can stand it, but I feel another dose calling to me - blasted shoulder is worse than ever today, and I'm walking around with a hot wheat bag draped round my neck!

    GoodIntentions I'll take an anaconda over my disturbing dream any day of the week!:D

  • Hi flyfriends
    hope you are all well off to find a list be back in a mo.

  • One big list found serves me right for being so lazy. My sleep patern is bad at the mo so that's not helping. WM is on, first load since I got back since I did wash every day while away. Still need to empty the caravan though:eek: Storykeepers holiday club is on everynight this week so I had better get cracking or I'll be running around at the last gasp again tonight!

    going for an HHC at 1.15 if anyone wants to keep me company??????
