  • I am back again... Salad was lovely and then I admit I had a little snooze for a couple of hours!!:eek:

    DD and I have had a long distance row. She has lost her bank cards for the 4th time and to give her some credit had managed to sort out replacements. But has now been told that she cannot pick it up at the branch only her home address. She woke me up from my sleep to inform me that I needed to find her bank account number so she could organise it. I am not good when woken up.....too many painkillers do not make for sensible conversation so I told her something about dealing with it later.

    Later comes with 13 phone calls between mobile and house phone....no messages left so but know this is her pattern when not getting her own way. When I finally rouse myself to talk to her - she shouts at me for not knowing where her paperwork is. I quietly remind her that I have just moved house, been unwell and do not know where it is and then I hung up. Ooops. I have also turned off mobile and house phone and silence reigns here.... bliss.

    I know it is wrong but she can be so unreasonable and no consideration for anyone else.

    Right waffle over: New list again for when I have finished my cup of tea.

    Empty another box
    Empty bin bag of clothes
    empty dishwasher and start to reload.
    eat fruit
    Take painkillers and antibiotics

    Triker I loved your post Happy Birthday to your DH
    Me - I remember when she came and posted on the thread, much to your annoyance. My mum says daughters get better once they hit 40. I am the oldest girl, and I am 38.
    Dusty - hoped your DS1 was feeling a bit btter but it doesnt sound like it.

    Not much productive done last night on the cleaning front, and slept through the alarm. Poor MatthewCat kindly emptied the contents of his stomach all over the sofa before I went to work which did not help. Came home to a dirty dish filled tip, and I need to make myself crack on with sorting the mess.

    Oh I lack the motivation now - taken ages to do the above and not even finished the list!:o

    I have made another cup of tea/ fed and put the cat out so I will sit and watch Strictly and eat my fruit and then decide what else I can do.

    Evening all, all appointments done...DD not to be seen again until next year as they think the insoles are working well. Poor Rhys has a sore ear and has had meds and is tucked up in bed. :( DS2 is shathered and will be in bed very soon.

    I'm half way through the kitchen and livingroom has got a quick tidy. WM and DW both on and will be for most of the night.

    Triker Happy Birthday to your OH, hope the party goes well.
    Dusty Hope DS is feeling better soon.
    LW big hugs, i hope it all works out.
    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.
