Gggrrrr... who sent the BD here???? I hate it... why are the RSPCA not keen to put this barstool down?!
I am fed up of the mess, I am fed up of the clutter, I am fed up of being a non-entity as far as my family are concerned. My sister is up from London and her my other sister and 2 brothers have all gone out together.. guess who wasn't invited again???
You know.. I might just stop having anything to do with any of them.. they'll need me before I need them.

I hope so! I am sure it is related to my extended cycle this month.. and my family being a pile of poo... and being left out of everything..

Hi there. A quick (late post) to say that I'm in for this week, too.
Didn't get chance to post yesterday, and fell, in the pouring rain today, so have had a days rest. Thankfully I wasn't too badly hurt, but shaken and badly bruised the big toe on my left foot, this after fracturing a toe on my right foot a few weeks ago! Still, it could have been much worse and I am thankful I am ok.
Been a bad weekend for appliances! The WM and TD stopped working yesterday, and the DW today! Help!! How can all three go at once?
I have been doing a lot of flying, up to today, cleaned through whole place, all ironing, a big shop and also helped friend again, even though I haven't posted. OH hoovered and has nearly finished his storage shelves in the loft.
Good vibes being sent to everyone and lots of BIG sticks to chase away any BDs and, finally, thank you Dusty for the lists.0 -

Morning all. Thanks Dusty for the lists, but have I missed something? Is it Wednesday already? Can't be as I'm still sitting in the room with grot carpet and it should have been gone on Tuesday.
So this week (and next probably) I won't be really doing the lists as I'm off the paid stuff so routine goes out the window. Today, we have to completely clear the living room ready for new floor tomorrow so my whole house will be a tip.
I am planning to stay calm during this major operation! Have a great bank holiday all.Spend less now, work less later.0 -
Grey and chilly here today with rain promised for later.
We had a busy weekend (not with flying I hasten to add!!) as OH's daughter made a rare visit. As usual she spent the whole time telling us how hard-up she is - she earns more than twice our combined income!!!
Back to normal today - whatever 'normal' is.
WM on but the washing will have to be festooned around the house thanks to the weather.
DW on.
Bathroom cleaned.
Bed changed.
Lazy day really. I am looking forward to watching this afternoon's Prom on the tv. It is the Wallace and Grommet Prom for children really - but I want to be a child today! They are playing Piano Concerto in Ee Lad which amused me.
Rowan Tree Sorry to hear about all your appliances failing together. This is something I am beginning to worry about. When I had the kitchen replaced about 6 years ago all the appliances were new as well so it figures that they will all fail at about the same time too. It seemed such a good idea at the time!!0 -
