    Good afternooooooooooooon lol.

    All clean and tidy here, there's a load of washing on the line - I'll iron that tomorrow.

    Have a great time Scuzz.

    Master tru was sent home from work (actually the boss brought him home), he's in agony with toothache, almost in tears. I rang the dentist, can't fit him in til tomorrow morning. He's had some paracetamol and rubbed loads of clove oil on his gum but it's not working. Mr tru is getting some Solpadeine (recommended by the dentist) but I reckon it's an abcess and painkillers don't work on abcesses do they? Anyway, if it doesn't work we have to ring the emergency dentist.


    I would just like one day where I don't have to worry about anyone lol.
    Best thing to take is an anti-inflammatory such as Ibuprofen which will help with the throbbing from an abscess, but these should be taken with food to be most effective! Do you know how to find the emergency dentist in your area? If not, phone NHS Direct on 0845 46 47. Give Master Tru a hug from me - I know what it's like! Good luck!

    happy birthday to Miss Pen Pen & Miss Mimif Hope they have a fab day!
    emmy hope you get sorted out at the doc's with the itching! Must be irritating (pardon the pun) lol
    moiliere thanks for the reminder of the 10p listing day on thursday for ebay.
    csarina glad your cooker arrived safely. I bet its annoying you have to cut some of the work tops back!
    CM hope your niece is better today. My DD fell and cut her forehead open on the wall edge! She was 18months old at the time. The scar is hardly noticable now (she's 7).
    anniestar hugs to you! Hope things work out the way you want them too for yourself & DH, you both deserve it!
    quasar oooh enjoy your time on the jury! I would love to do that!
    rage in eden hope those panic attacks come under control soon! Its not nice (touch wood) Ive been ok for about a yr! Good luck also with the IVF.


    OH is just feeding the animals, then I can make a start on dinner.
    DD is outside playing and DS is out at the park WITH HIS GIRLFRIEND :eek: on his skates. I peeped through the blind to take a look, she's quite a stunner! But he's 11 - thats the scary part, I hope its not serious, but he tells me they're not into kissing! (is that a good thing) I hope it is!

    WM on again! Im off to put away th eclean washing from the week end

    Love Emma xxx

    Anniestar and Rage in Eden...be easy on yourself, everything that goes wrong in the world is not your fault, other adults are responsible for themselves. Have been off work with depression since last July caused, I am sure, by years of trying to take other peoples' troubles on my shoulders. It has taken me a long time to get myself back to near normality, hoping that very soon I will be able to carry on with the rest of my life....there is light at the end of all tunnels.

    Hi Amie - glad you didn't need anything done at the dentist - it's great when that happens, isn't it? I must be half a generation older than you because my music is 60s and 70s and I've had that blaring out all day because my neighbours are away as well!

    Practising with what!!!! :rotfl: at least Im not on my own, it is so scary! I know they've done sex education at school, but at what age would you consider reasonable to give the "talk" ?

    Im just eating bubble & squeek for dinner, left over mash, cabbage, hint of garlic & mushrooms. amie I know its not exactly diet food, but i've not used any oil or anything (i dry fry). Plus Ive been very good with other foods today! salad bowl & fresh pineapple & grapes for lunch, shreddies for breakfast!

    All clean washing sorted out & put away. Ive also sorted out my wardrobe. Got yet another pile of tops to put on ebay!

    Catch you later (again)
