Food shop
get tickets for panto
DD1 coming specially to take us down for the panto tickets and she wants to go to Asda so I thought I'd save the delivery charge this week for my food shop seeing as I'll be there anyway :money: need to copy my online order list onto paper.
Laters folks, be good xx0 -
I have a poorly girl home with me today - DD is having a VERY uncomfortable AF visit (at least it's not every one) so she is here.
She is up so I can get the vauum cleaner on the go.
My first 'big' recycling bin has been emptied - we can now add plastic and it's a proper bin (the boxes used to cause problems in windy weather.
I'm hoping that it will have a positive effect on the local environment - the 'plastic' bins by the shopswere also prone to suffering in high wind and the plastic used to end up in the river (due to prevailing wind and lie of the land) and on 'the Green'.
Anyway off I go
(doing the squeezes btw;) - ace challenge, that.
And can I suggest, Dusty & the coalition that personal health checks eg breast awareness and 'bits' awareness be added one day?Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016

Morning everyone. Dusty the lists are fantastic. Well done. Wish I had less distractions so that I could get on with them.
Washing machine paddle has broken off again. I think something is behind the drum. I have found a spares supplier who charges £5.28 with £1.99 P&P - slightly better than the £29.98 I paid from the manufacturer a couple of weeks ago.
DS1's difficult behaviour has gone to far. He is disruptive, bullying and violent when he is in the house. I am scared of him and spent the last day and a half in tears. DH has realised that it is more than just AF causing my distress, he is away now until Friday and DS1 has been sent to the in-laws until DH returns. DS1 has a job interview this morning and I really hope he gets it as it will keep him out the house for 40 hours a week. He also has college tonight and PIL is going to collect him afterwards (bus doesn't run after 7pm).
I'm feeling really low and am trying to pull myself together. I feel really pathetic, I just can't stop crying.0
