    I've been Money Tipped!
    I should be doing laundry but I am SO tired.

    All the excitement of the smear and blood tests was a bit much and I am scared I have over extended myself this week. I'll be ok. Better when I have washed the clothes I want to wear tomorrow!

    I didn't have so much as a raised heartbeat at the doctors. Phlebotomist was surprised I had got a vein up ready for her. She told me it was the 'wrong arm' and I said well, you can tryi the other one....she looked and agreed my chosen spot was better. (I had checked both before working on getting one ready....anyone would think I had a little bit of experience at being a good pin cushion rofl.

    What's a man vajazzle going to be called when it happens? I guess I could pop a peacock feather in the end and call it a cocktail.

    Probably something like a 'Prince Albert' Tinsel Tits has got one :rotfl:

    Helmet hair is one of the things I'm concerned about if I stick to my plan of switching to cycling to work once DD goes to secondary school in Sept 2015.

    Our place has showers. Some do cycle to & from work.

    There is even a cyclists group!
    It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.

    Dh showers at work. Not just after the gym or something...just because he likes to have a shower in the middle of the day sometimes for a mid day whiff of badedas. It doesn't translate to many women. A quick five minute shower for him to me work ready might be a shower, then five minutes sorting out hair from under Neath the shower cap (he just washes his, that would add twenty mins and a distinctly unprofessional look for me) then five mins ish to make up, (after my moisturiser had had five mins to sink in) and a few mins to body moisturise.......

    It's ok here when working with the horses and not worrying about make up, in an office I think I would be uncomfortable doing it regularly.

    Precisely. I, for instance, receive about 10 emails of this type a week. Water off a duck's back these days.

    Sorry, I'll stop sending them then....sniff!

    After all that damn hard work, last thing I want is to find them again!

    Our cherry blossom has lost nearly all it's blossom. I love the shape of this tree; it is under threat from OH who doesn't like the way one of its roots grows horizontally above grass level, spoiling the look of the lawn. DS2 claimed it got in the way of some goals.

    Our cherry blossom has only just started popping its leaves out from its buds????
