Morning Ladies :hello:


Hope you are all well. It was 15 years ago today, I married my lovely DH! He is backshift & then playing pool tonight :rotfl: so we are going out Saturday night for a nice meal.

I am so far behind this week, its been such a busy week with kids having loads of end of term services/discos/talent shows etc on, never got in until9.10 last night after all the running about after work! DH is doing some bits for me today, hopefully a lot! I will update later when I find out what he has achieved. Nothing on tonight so I should manage to clear a wee bit, have my wee niece staying over tomorrow so need to get a bed made up in DD’s room for her which makes the place look messy, so I will leave her room until Saturday.

Afternoon all. Its been a busy morning here, so far today:

DD toileted (30min round trip just from her bed to the bathroom next room and back again)
Breakfast for both of us separately
Dishes washed (most of them anyway..they're breeding!)
DD given a bed bath & hair washed
Bath & hair wash for me
DD toileted again then assisted down the stairs (40mins!)
Hospital spoken to (they've made changes to the appointment tomorrow!)
Dad spoken to about changing lift arrangements for tomorrow morning
Boiler service people spoken to after they rang trying to rearrange Tuesdays missed appointment.
Customer dealt with via text.
Meat out for tea!
DD's bed stripped again ready for clean sheets before bed tonight.

We have to be up and out for 8.30am tomorrow so we can get to the hospital for 9am so DD can have her current cast removed, go for an ultra sound scan ASAP after getting there (she's seeing the head consultant for it, and he's unavailable between 10am-12pm) then hang around until her appointment at 10.46pm with the outpatients clinic where I'm hoping they'll decide to put her in a smaller cast and that they won't have to operate. :eek: So, planning for the worst, I'm going to pack a bag of overnight stuff for me and DD to take with us just in case they decide to admit her again on no notice. I'll leave it in the boot of my dads car though as I doubt they'll admit her on a Friday but I'm not going to risk it I am NOT sleeping in my clothes with nothing for the next day again.

If its gone its done or not applicable! (crossed out is me editing as I do jobs so I can see whats left without reposting )

If there are any positive vibes floating around out there, please send them my way. I am married to an alcoholic and today he is stopping drinking.

Have a good day everyone.

Well done to him for getting help, both my parents were alcoholics, my Mum left home when I was 10, never saw her again, am now 39 but found out she died a few years ago & my dad, have not spoken to him in years for different reasons. I really hope he gets the help he deserves & you have the strength to help him through :grouphug: (is it only me or does this smilie look wrong)

I am seriously fed up of the mess in here.. I could cry.. I really need someone to come help me

And the dirty rabbit was just eating his own poop... disgusting thing.. I could really do for him to be rehomed.. and I feel really bad because I love him but he is just neglected.

Gammon in for dinner.. salad and new potatoes to sort next.

mrs-moneypenny

rabbits are meant to eat their poo, they do it twice the first lot (soft) is still full of nutrients so they eat it and next time its pellets.
so yucky fact of the day - strange some of the trivia you manage to retain isnt it.
PP if you lived closer id happily po round i always get on better cleaning at mils than i do at home funny how someone elses stuff is easier to deal with.
hugs for you

Valli

excellent parody LW

done nothing other than write report, wince (sore wrists) been for lunch wiht friend to Peak Village at Rowsley and passed my near neighbours the Devonshires :rotfl: house.

I'm in heaven - I have Lancashire Sarsaparilla in my fridge.

Excelelnt work on th eparody. Sorry to answer Dusty's post when it had been adequately dealt with - jus trealised I somehow 'jumped' about -half-a-page

Bought the Vallikids baraginous trainer socks - 50p a pair (good brand too) and it absolutely hammered down. I now know I don't like sitting in big conservatories drinking coffee when it's hailing pea sized hailstones
Posted e bays sales.
