Nice to see Soappie, Maxtonian, KazM and sundry returners(sorry if I've missed anyone) who've been prompted by FB don;t do it myself.
Thank you Jackie. Nice to be back
Didn't manage to post yesterday. Dont know where it went?
I've been up since the crack of dawn. i did 2 x HHI, the cat litter and bathroom. Cleaned the bin too.
Then I went to the Trafford Centre and made a start on the C word.
Then I came home and had a nap (it is my day off :rotfl:)
Then we have just been to the vets with cat number 1 for her annual check up. All is well.
Did I say - we lost cat number 2 a few weeks ago? Very suddenly. She wasn't eating, turns out it was cancer of the abdomen, so we let her go to sleep whilst under anaesthetic for a laparoscpy. Vet said it was kindest.
I'm off out soon. i haven't had any tea, but I'm so hot, I just cant be bothered. i think it's my age :cool:
Maybe catch you later, if not tomorrow.
Enjoy your evening ladies :beer:Yesterday is history
Tomorrow is a mystery
Today is a gift
That's why we call it 'The Present'0 -
IT'S THE WEEKEND:T:T:T:T:D:D:D:D:p:p:p:p:p:cool::cool::cool::cool::cool:
and I have had washing out all day and it's dry:D
so I will iron shortly.
Loads to do mind
Doing the challenge as I type - gotta love multi-tasking!
Ooh and more relisted stuff has bids!

We visited John Lewis's today; Mr LW bought some acrylic cocktail stirrers because we no longer have any (the last one died the death a while back and I've been using metal skewers to stir my Virgin Mary, but it's not the same):D and I resisted the temptation to buy a hip flask to keep my Oramorph in.:rotfl:
This! So this!

did my evil mummy routine tonight. DS1 hates anything with the word soup at the end. tonight he had tattie stew and scoffed more than half of it. now to make all my soups that thick :rotfl:
DS2 is really testing me today. terrible 2s really hitting in and he cant quite manage to be clean in his pants. dry yes but clean no. poo'd his pants twice today and also poo'd in the bath too. trying to think what to do with him re that particular function. stickers lose their interest after 1 and food isnt a good reward for a child who will eat till he throws up and then starts again.
going to paint my nails tonight instead of ironing. well its been a tough day!0 -
A quick in and out (again!).
Have decluttered some seriously rude words at BT today. Came home to find the landline not working and broadband up and down like a !!!!!'s drawers - I shall be lucky if this post posts IYSWIM.
Due to the !!!!!'s drawers nature of broadband link was unable to log fault on line. Also unable to log fault through phone cos landline had no dial tone! Mobile call meant serious charges plus what BT admitted would be a 4 minute message telling me it would be £130 if the engineer came out and found the fault was with my equipment. I refused to listen to more than 30 seconds of that message on my mobile.
So, nipped next door,borrowed one of NN's (she's still doing famously - finally retired from work this April gone by - aged 74 and three quarters!) old analogue phones and tried plugging it in - nope no joy there either. So back to NN's and phone BT using her BT landline - because it's free whereas using a mobile costs! BT admitted there was a fault on the network. But, it may not be fixed until NEXT MONDAY! 3 working days. Not good enough. The air was blue I tell ya - blue!
Haha! Caught a window of drawers up!I am the leading lady in the movie of my life
