And you too Nikki. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I'm just gutted I didn't find this thread sooner. I used to see it in the expired section and didn't bother reading it as I never went to T's :eek:

Every week for months I used to go whoopseing to Asda for 2 hours while my son was at youth club....every wednesday night without bl00dy fail.:o
T's was only a mile further down the road too.
The things I missed out on don't bear thinking about :(
I found this thread just as all the electricals were ending.:rotfl:

But your here now and thats what matters;);)

Morning everyone, just catching up then lots of work to do:(Had an email to say my KG order has been despatched:T:T:T:TCan't wait as its definately wellie weather;)Nipped to T's last night but nothing exciting other than a few whoopsies and also got one of the big union jack storage boxes for DS at uni. Down from £7.99 to £3.98:TWalked in with it and MrLala has taken a shine to it, but he can buy his flipping own:p:pCan you tell I don't like him much at the moment, his OCD is driving me mad, sorry to everyone who suffers with it but at times its unbearable to live with it;)Rant over:p
Big hugs to 3dogs & Mr3dogs hopefully today will be a better day:)

Good moooooorning everyone?

Sun is out in Manchester! :eek::eek:

Won't be seeing any of Manchester now until September.

Bringing DS1 home from uni was moved forward from this coming Sunday, to yesterday after work. Knew it would be a long job, packing, cleaning, but it was even longer than I'd thought it would be. He'd done as much as he could before I got there, but heavy financial penalties if the shared flat was left with any cleaning to do. He did very well, was happy to be directed as to what was to be done next. Pleased to say we left his room in the flat looking like it did when he moved in. Kitchen was another matter. 2 lads left at the weekend, all their cupboards and shelves in the fridge needed cleaning, cleaned those. Sink, worktops and tiles cleaned. Rubbish was bagged, but still in the flat, so we moved all that.

At 12.30am, we split resources, DS1 continued loading the car, whilst I carried on cleaning. Phone goes........ Mum, erm, I've locked the car keys, and the flat keys, in the boot......

After initial OMG, thank fully keep Recovery details in my purse, rang them, they;'d send a guy out, an hour.... so, looking at 2am arrival, went back and carried on cleaning as we had to wait anyway. Whoopsie doughnuts I'd collected on way into Manchester, now we're on bag number 2! Everything ready now. The remaining communal cleaning can be done by 4th boy/parents.

Recovery guy comes, brilliant, into the car within 10 minutes, thanked, apologies whispered to the flats around DS1, as alarm went off as car door was opened. Final loading up done. DS1 kept talking to me on the way home, think my yawns were giving away my tiredness, so his talking helped.

21.5 hours since I'd got up, finally home at 4am.

Car still loaded, will empty it later.

DS1 gives me a hug as we leave the flat, "thank you for everything"

A Bear's Life

If you're a bear, you get to hibernate.You do nothing but sleep for six months.
I could deal with that.

Before you hibernate, you're supposed to eat yourself stupid.
I could deal with that, too.

If you're a bear, you birth your children (who are the size of walnuts) while you're sleeping and wake to partially grown, cute cuddly cubs.
I could definitely deal with that.

If you're a mama bear, everyone knows you mean business.You swat anyone who bothers your cubs. If your cubs get out of line, you swat them too.
I could deal with that.

If you're a bear, your mate EXPECTS you to wake up growling. He EXPECTS that you will have hairy legs and excess body fat.

...Hands up all those who want to be a bear...
