Evening everyone,had a busy morning with all four grandsons at the dentist.we have moved them to the chap I go to as their other dentist was not really very good.The boys were all very good and even the youngest goes in on his own to see the dentist and he is only seven bless him.I am a bit paranoid about their teeth as I think its so important to look after them properly .I grew up with the 'school dentist' who never filled any just yanked them out.
I then dropped them all off at their various schools after their check-up and came home and had luch and put my feet up for half an hour and read the back of my eyelids :)
Just going to make my dinner then watch some t.v. and do some knitting.I have a clear day off tomorrow as DD has this wednesday off and works Saturday instead so I can relax and do absolutely nothing tomorrow (I wish ) I will probably make some cakes as the cake tin is a bit depleted.
Hurry up with that little one JG as we are all dying to see what you have and hopefully a photo as well.
Take care everyone

P.S. DGS Ben has been offered a place in sixth form at his grammar school, and I am so pleased as he really has worked his socks off .He is hoping to take chemistry,and physics and maybe English at A level, he want to join the army when he is 18 and is hoping to get into the Royal Engineers:j:j

Evening all,

hve been missing for a few days, am soooo tired these days that I don't manage to stay awake until late evening, which is my usual time for coming on here.

Could do with some of your energy Beth....agree with all that you should be taking things a bit easier, but think that we might as well be talking to the wall! Just take care of yourself.

Seems I'm not the only one trying to lose weight...might help with energy levels. Have been reading in more than one place that New Year is not the time to do it, puts one under too much stress, so am using that as my excuse to finish all the sweet stuff here.....most of a C cake, Oxford lunch, C pudding....can't seem to get to the end of it, OH eats a little but not much help really! There are also 3 tins of chocolate biscuits, not a big biscuit eater so not bothered about them.

LW...positive vibes for some pain relief and sleep

Lou....one step at a time chicken!

uolypool....hugs for your son....although I suppose the last thing he wants is being hugged by an old biddy!

JG....think that Roo is aiming to be like my DD4....late for everything....maybe if you could resign yourself to another week or 2 he/she will make a move.....

Hugs to all

Marie

Hi everyone
Hope everyone is feeling a little better tonight Im sat on my bed watching the TV, the aerial still isnt sorted TBH i havent tried yet , I have a day off tomorrow so I was going to see if I can find someone to look at it for me, but after visiting a friend after work I returned to my car to find the seal on my windowscreen hanging out and I cant get it back in again, so thats tomorrows job along with the dentist:(and then back at work for 5 days so I cant do anything until next week:(

Had a busy day but I dont mind as it goes quicker untill I leave work:) Joy

Anyway thats it from me, not very interesting - very mundane

Evening all,

I tried my swede in the micro and tbh It was not as tasty, I normally boil it with carrots and an onion, and then mash the lot together, so this time i microwaved the sweede, boiled the carrot and onion and then mashed it all, it was just not as tasty, so will go back to the old way, it was much quicker though.

Lamewolf, nice to see you posting, Dilly dog sounds like a right little character xx

Evening all

Hugs to those in pain and those with troubles

Been a really busy 2 days at work and have come home exhausted. Had veg soup for tea as couldn't be bothered to cook - unfortunately no HM left, so had to resort to a tin lol (not too bad though as on offer in Asda - prefer HM though)

OS has been a bit on the back burner for the last few days as I haven't had the energy to do much, wm has been on and washing is on airers as weather very unpredictable here at the moment. The fence which was blown down last week has been put back by the next door neighbours - new panels as the old one was broken beyond repair by the wind -so will go round at the weekend and offer to pay half towards it, was an unexpected surprise to see it back in place today.:D

Might have an early night and do a little cross stitch in bed before I go to sleep, I need to crack on with things for the new (first) grand-baby, not due till June but I'm quite slow at crafty things as Im not very experienced (and not very good lol) and I want to crochet a shawl too - if anyone has a very easy (and quick growing!) shawl or baby blanket pattern I would be eternally grateful lol

Have a good evening all

Hi all


Thank you for your kind messages. I'm. Home finally!!

Yesterday was fine, my brother wrote a really nice poem, lots of people turned up and it was a real celebration of gdads life.

OH was put in charge of contacting the church for a meeting re booking the wedding, not sure if he did, he was gawping at the cost most of this afternoon


I am just about ready for bed! Catcha tomorrow!

Xx

Hi all,
SISTERCAS, ROSYRED, MONNAGRAM and BARGAINBIRD :A, I do hear what you are saying but I find it very difficult to rest, wish I could sometimes, anyhoo I managed 5 1/2 hrs so that made a big dent in the amount that needs doing. I will be taking things easier tomorrow as I'm having DGD3 from 9 - 1.30pm I haven't spent a lot of time with her so need to bond a bit more. I'm having her on Thursday a.m. so DD2 can take DGD2 to her swimming lesson.

Ahem! This is taking it easy???? Beth, heaven help us if you decide to be energetic and rush around.:D

I am exhausted. Have done all I wanted to though - cooking for tomorrow, spring cleaned and reorganised the breakfast room, cleared the hall of rubbish that has been dumped there by someone who should know better, and washed and dried, mostly TD I'm afraid, all the blankets and covers in the BR.
Now I'm just waiting for the kitchen floor to dry then I'm going to put the last few things away and go to bed with my book.:)

Evening everyone

Yes Im late on here again. Its nearly bedtime (hopefully) depending on ds2. He only had about 6 hours last night so hope he will sleep better tonight. Weather today has been quite pleasant here. This is the first week im down to 2 days, so off for rest of week. Tomorrow i am going back to my craft club, cant wait.

os today swept all floors downstairs, never known a dog shed so much hair. cleaned kitchen after dh made dinner, but only after having ds2 hm veg soup first. It was lovely, he is only 11 and takes it very seriously. Dh is a good cook, but makes so much of a mess takes me ages to sort kitchen.

We have managed to get someone to watch my ds2 on friday evening so are off out as a couple to an engagement party. hopefully this can be a more regular event now.

Uolypool - glad to hear your ds is at home, wishing him a speedy recovery and hope the police catch the people responsible.
JG - Another cyberaunty in waiting here.
Lou ((hugs)) hope you are feeling brighter.
LW - nice to see you posting.
Bramble - glad it went well, congratulations on the wedding plans.
Mrs Mortonharket - nice to see you back
Beth - Just reading your post wears me out.

Sorry If I have missed anyone. Hugs to anyone that needs/wants one. Take Care and sleep well.
