Morning everyone,

thanks for the birthday wishes, I'm celebrating with a weekend of treats of "things I like to do" and am really enjoying it so far.

Penny-pincher, can I borrow your nephew? He sounds like the sort of nevvy every girl should have

looby-loo, your daffodil experience really made me laugh! I can imagine your wonderfully different "hanging basket" on your patio wall.

Ooooh! postie has just arrived! I'm off, catch you all later.

Have a great day and hugs to all who would like one.

Good Morning All

N9eav hope your daughter is better soon!

bargain babe so please your cat is home and making a full recovery, give him a kiss & cuddle from me please!

Good Luck with those who are playing footie today!

happy birthday racyred have a lovely day!


Ive had such a rough nights sleep, my headache still not gone from yesterday, and every 2 hrs I kept waking up through pain! It feels like someone has smacked me with a baseball bat at the back of my head.

I must catch up with housework today or over the wk end at some point! With recent events, things have been neglected.

OH just gone into town with DS, to pay some bills and to spend some vouchers DS got for his birthday. Providing he's good and he doesn't bicker with DD, then we will take that trip to toys-r-us, that we've been meaning to do all week.

Ive been on the phone this morning to the pet insurance, as they sent me a re-newal policy form for my cat who's just gone! I thought it was sick joke, and it upset me again! They couldn't apologise enough!

Some of my items im selling on ebay are ending today & tomorrow.

Anyway, best go & make start.

Have a great wk end all
Love as usual

Morning all, not a good start, slept in already and PC still playing up, got more blue screens than an adult cinema! Good news is DSs seem to have settled better in their new bedroom (wanted to be in together, moved everything, then decided they didn't but been told tough!) we still have to paint ours, hoping to get it done over the weekend so I can go and get a carpet Monday, can see it being later in the week.

My friend is up this weekend from London so we're off out for lunch with her and her partner today. Her parents do Crufts every year with their dog who does Fly Ball and she comes up to look after the farm. I haven't seen her for about a year now so will be great to catch up, the boys are also looking forward to seeing her as she's another 'adopted aunty'. She moved down there just over 2 years ao to live with her partner. It's quite funny watching her partner having to deal with living on a farm, he's a proper city person and spent his time last year running away from the sheep :rotfl: Fish out of water is an understatment!

Must get cracking, some housework to do, going to try to fit half an hours study time in while boys do something quiet, thinking crafts for DS2 and reading for DS1, then get DP up at 11 and have shower then, get everyone ready to go etc. I have this funny feeling today will be stressful but I hope not. Might take the boys over to my friends after lunch to see the lambs etc before coming back to start on the painting of my new room.

Hope everyone has a lovely day.

Happy Birthday Racy (can't use the smilies but imagine a cake ROFL)

Morning all, been off line for a couple of days. The desk top went to get its disc cleaned (I have already sold it to DD and SIL) :T :T and the lap top power cable decided to stop working, looked at it and saw bare wires exposed :eek: :eek: so a quick trip to ebay to get a new power pack which has just arrived!!!! checked my email 109 messages waiting for me, most of them rubbish but I still had to wade through them.

Right, on the flat/apartment front, moving day has gone back 2 weeks:eek: :eek: when the repair people went in thet found a whole lot of stuff that needed seeing to (80hours worth) including some rewiring, sorting out the kitchen and something to do with the main door to the flat.........I got very stressed yesterday morning over it all, good job the pills the DR gave me are having an effect!!!!! otherwise I think I would be swinging from the chandalier in the sitting room.

I have accepted a quote from a remover and we have set the date 11th April, hopefully that will give us time to get the carpets in, the workmen hope to be finished 2nd April and thats when we will get the keys.......then we can start moving stuff.

Thursday night I sold the dishwasher and it was collected, SIL asked if we would like to go out for a meal with them, ( it was a freind of his who bought the DW) so we went. We do not often go out to eat, but 2 for £10 and it was very nice, so we enjoyed it..........

OH has had to contact the agent words were said about extra rent........we wait and see what happens on that front.

OH is busy digging up plants from the garden, we are going to the allotment to put them in and then tomorrow we have the boot sale, so when we get back we have to pack the car.

Thats me for today folks, will check back later on the back threads and see what I missed, how did Mogs get on with her interview?????
