Morning all,
Hot here as well. I've had another night of toothache so back at the dentist at 12:(
I'm fasting today but as I will probably be numb I don't suppose it matters.
Otherwise I need to post a couple of eBay parcels and do some more listings.
I am really interested in doing a counselling course but I can't afford it at the moment which is very frustrating. It's the kind of job I could do from home but it will have to wait until finances are in a better place. Catch 22.
Never mind hugs for anyone who is a bit fed up like me today. Will pop back later in a better mood xStarted Self Managed DMP 10th May 2017.

Morning All,
Quite pleasant in the office today, as it is overcast and a deal cooler.
To the folks in Kent, please be careful, 34C is quite dangerous! Plenty of water and look after yourselves.
Not a lot to report today, which is a case of no news is good news.
Have a nice day everyone :beer:0 -
Morning All!
many thanks for the good wishes yesterday.
Have actually menu planned for next three days ( as far as i seem able to plan right now!) so will be shopping with list - and sticking to it!
temp here forcast to be 30 by lunchtime, but have planned relatively shady walk with friend anyway. hat , sunglasses and water should do it - the company will be just what I need to lift my spirits!
Some schools here have finished , with two training days for staff, but one or two are continuing until tomorrow afternoon. Another occasion when I'm glad I'm long out of it!
Where is Hester????
Cleaned both fridges yesterday - ashamed to mention the various packs of rotted salad that are now out in the bin......
Hoping to make a start on the garage this afternoon. Hope you all have a good day!Resolution:

Morning :hello:
Just about to have my second shower of the day. Had a shower earlier then decided to give the chicken shed a thorough clean. I'm covered in cobwebs, dust, a few bits of shredded paper and mite powder :rotfl: They have five nesting boxes, I've taken two out to give them a scrub. The girls are complaining loudly that they can't lay in their usual place, it'll get worse when I put them back in and remove the other three
It's already hot here, I'll put some washing out and run the hoover round. Must have that shower, I smell like chickens and disinfectantThen hide in the shade for the rest of the day.

Morning all
Warm here but thunderstorms forecast in the next day or so.
I have put a load of washing in.
OH had to look at our foul water drain this morning as it was blocked. This has happened a few times now. He cleared it and rang Wessex Water for advice. As it is a shared drain they think it is their responsibility(it is in our drive) so have given us a job number and will look at it within the next 5 days. If it gets blocked again they will come out within 4 hours. Ho hum should have left it and got it seen to sooner!
Hope they sort it soon as DD is flying in from Japan on Friday.
I am not cooking tonight as we have quiche. Will just boil a few potatoes to have with salad. We had beetroot and French beans radish and lettuce from the garden yesterday and strawberries with our cereal for breakfast today.
OH is now assembling an IK*a chest of drawers for the spare room. I am keeping out of the way....don't know how he had time to go to work. LOL
Well hugs for all who need them and help yourselves to coffee and walnut cake and lemon drizzle. Coffee in the pot over there.
Have a good day.

Morning (just about) all,
Nice and cool here today, wearing a new dress which I picked up in the sale for £8 down from £20! Storms, or at least rain, should be due but you never can be sure can you. I hope we do get some rain too - it's hard for me to remember to nip out and water all the important plants (and to try and not water the weeds haha!)
very quiet in work today, got plenty done at home before I left too.
Couple of errands to run during my lunch break - got a few bits to pick up from boots and morrisons. Then bf is picking me up as he needs fuel for camp this week. I got him featured in the paper on Friday so he is all giddy about showing them at work as most weren't in on Saturday bless him.
Feeling really tired today so hoping for a peaceful night once I've helped bf pack everything up for camp and loaded the car for him etcThankfully all his washing is done and there should just be three tops to iron!
Planning a new grocery month based on 3.5 weeks at home and needing to run the freezer down as much as possible due to getting the new one. Will mean some random concoctions for me whenever bf is away!
Hope everyone is feeling good, hugs and well wishes to those who aren't************************************

Beemuzed - Hester is ok but she has suddenly gone offline. Her blog has disappeared too so she is very much missed.
Im irked this morning. All this hype about the royal birth and a safe pair of hands - the obstetrician. No bloomin mention of the midwife:eek::eek::eek:I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.0 -
Julie - I have just completed a level 2 counselling course and I paid my fees over 4 instalments. It is worth checking with the college your thinking of studying at as quite a few offer payment plans. Also there is the new loans for people aged 24+ similar to student loans offered to university students but I'm not sure if they just cover level 3 and above. I have to say I really enjoyed the course.
Hope this is of some help.0
