    wendywitch - have you reported the smell from next door to the police?

    Yep. They say they can't do anything about it and to tell the Housing Association about it.
    I've told the H.A and they said cos it's only a class A drug they can't do anything. But they could look into doing something to my walls ??

    I just got in and DD1 says she's watched them loading black sacks into a van :cool: We've seen that before


    I've had yet another sh*tty day :( (remember I did say I hate Wednesdays)

    Took my dad to club, picked friends up and went to my mums. Then spent the next 3 hours having my life pulled apart. Finances still not sorted, waiting for an email.
    Went to collect my dad, got half way down the main road and the clutch went :eek:
    Managed to pull in to the entrance of someones drive and had to start calling my mum, DD dad etc all the time receiving filthy looks from the other drivers :mad:
    Friend's hubby called his friend to come and move the car so it's now parked in a safer place waiting til tomorrow when DD's dad's friend is coming to collect it to take it to his garage :(
    Friend got a taxi to collect my dad and bring him back. Her and hubby had to get a taxi home instead of me taking them shopping as planned.

    So nothings been done at home and I really don't feel like it now. DD1 has taken DD2 to new look and they're going to get maccy d's I'm having a coffee and going to bed :(

    Quite tired to-day - happy to get as much done as I have.

Luckily I had a spare coat in the cupboard, as she came arrived in her beautiful white furry coat this morning :eek: (I call it her polar bear coat)

    Woke up this morning with sore arms again - but came downstairs to a much cleaner house.

    Cleared out my big food cupboard while cooking tea - record for best before date march 2007!

    Break now for tea then start again!
  • Hulloooooooo

    STILL got the lurgy and had to go sick from work which I hate doing. Flying will be fluttering this week!

    But I have managed:

    emptied all bins
    emptied fridge of un-invited life forms
    wiped kitchen surfaces
    tidied living room
    1 lot of washing
    tiny bit of paperwork

    Not all today though!

    Hopefully normal service will resume soon

    1 step closer
    If you wait for perfect conditions, nothing would ever get done! :T
    I'm not short - I'm condensed awesome! :p
