Morning everyone:)Thank you so much for all your lovely posts and pm's about DS, I am desperately trying to catch up but 100 pages to go so might have to give up and do some major skipping;)DS just phoned to say he's freezing cold:rotfl::rotfl:so told him to stick his dressing gown on top of his clothes(4p glitched of course;)) The halls hes in are 500 years old and the crittle windows are a bit drafty and the heatings not on:eek:He has made loads of new friends and sounds really happy:T:TMe and Mrlala did the same as everyone said we would.Drove home in floods of tears:o:o:o and it's so strange but MrLala has gone into major midlife crisis and keeps coming up with all kinds of projects we can do to keep us busy!! The most drastic was on Saturday afternoon when he declared we should move house to give us something else to think about!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
Ready now to get back to some serious glitching and shopping and big hugs to everyone who needs them:)

DS2 is complaining that Halls are too hot. He also said that he finds it difficult to get up for lectures!

Wierd having DS1 home and DS2 away. House is much quieter.

we are away on holiday in a flat with DS1 who is meant to be chilling after finishing his masters. After 4 days in a quiet town with us olds he has jumped ship and booked himself into a hostel in the big town half an hour away Who turns down a smart apartment for a hostel? Grrr!

due to the fact that i also have an evil streak there would be a very nicely wrapped shoe polish under the tree at christmas......actually would probably make a hamper of cleaning products and shoe polish!

I like it, but dare not go there

OH has just come in from work, goes straight to fridge and takes out ambrosia rice and states when you going to A again this is the last one. as the last time i've been in a shop before this glitch was 23.12.11 i think he has a cheek to now start expecting me to shop, he was told in no uncertain terms that once the glitch is over it's back to the way things were!

oh.....and the first time he has ever had a rice pot was when the glitch started

my OH ate his first rice pot yesterday, chocolate, and has now requested i buy original. He came to sada with me on sunday but got me so confused i messed up my shopping.

Gotta love 'em :kisses2:

thankfully, i got my kids trained quite early to do their own washing. havent had to do any for years for them - if they dont do it they have no clothes. from age of about 10.
There will be an occasional shout for whites or colours if someone needs more things to make up a full load. DS has to be reminded occasionally before his clothes start walking on their own.....
makes life much easier! Took them time to work out they also had to get the clothes dry as well as washing them...:p

Thought i had my ds1 trained. He was always pretty good at putting ,achine on when asked. Stopped asking about 4 months ago when i asked him to put sofa covers on. (new sofa). Few mins later, funny smell in house. After further investigation, instead of blue lenor, he'd put blinkin turps instead of conditioner:eek:

I was decorating and although it was in laundry room, it was well away from washing stuff and had a safety cap on. Couldnt fathom how he didnt notice smell if not anything else. Several washes later, noone noticed a thing.

To this day i can still smell it though:rotfl:
