Heck no!!!
Sorry maybe a bit of explanation needed for that. The lip biting continues as have passed it on to jelly though she hasn't drawn blood yet. She repeats to herself 'Don't bite nips (lips), make them sore, and make mummy berry sad!' :rotfl: but it is a bit pot and kettle!!
She bit her arms... in a temper tantrum when I had removed all objects possible to throw. She bit her wrists across the top, so hard and so much she left them actually black and blue. I had to explain to nursery we had not strung her up by the wrists but she had bitten them!!
Thankfully that level of frustration has not repeated the same method of release. She still throws things though :wall:

Salad cream is superior to mayo in every way...mostly because it doesn't make me puke!
But the best filling for celery is cream cheese mixed with smoked salmon flakes!
Lilty-you're a cleaning goddess-how to I removed sticky spots that I assume were once oil splatters from kitchen tiles? So far I have scrubbed with hot soapy water and flash anti-bac spray but they're stubborner than me!
I'm rather hoping that the downstairs trip going and refusing to reset was coincidence and not linked to pouring soda crystals, washing up liquid, vinegar and boiling water on the cooker!Credit card respend 2551.58 (15/02/17)0 -

marsbargirl Hmmm... the trip might have gone IF you have a gas hob and got water inside the button that sparks the plates. I used to do it all the time because my button is broken so leave it turned off at the plug now!
If you have soda crystals, and bleach, mix them together with some hot water and rub that on to it then leave it for a bit, rub again and it should come off!! If not, you need some astonish cream! Magical stuff, from savers or the pound shop etc. Really.. astonishing
I like your stuffing for celery. You can stay...
Westie OK I believe you... almost
dfw :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: toblerone is for winners!!but LOL. And yes, seriously. The slightest bit of a slip on this one will just mean I dump on a tonne of weight and get the headaches back so I would rather stick to it. It isn't that bad really, but the fridge is heaving constantly as everything I can eat needs to be stored in there!!
As for the label writing... yeah I've done 3 out of 5 cabinets but the other 2 haven't arrived yet. So another 300-400 more labels to do next week!! Sigh. And I get paid a ridiculous amount per hour. Somewhere close to double minimum wage to stick labels in a filing after writing them. So not complaining. Lol!! xxx
Morning guys
It is my birthday today. I am 29 :eek: - I have had one square of chocolate (green & blacks 85% which Jelly proclaimed YUK to when she had a piece) and a mushroom omelette for breakfast which she also helped herself to.
Have to go out today and get some more greenery to eat. Kale etc. Rock n roll birthday.
I lost a fight yesterday and ended up spending the day cleaning in preparation for people I don't want to come, to come today. Not even to see me particularly so I will probably just slope off to my bedroom while they are here and leave them to fawn over/ignore Jelly respectively and leave after an hour and 2 cups of my coffee and tea each. Not to mention the rubbish primarni present I will no doubt get. I don't mean to be uncharitable but they derailed the day I planned yesterday because the house was an absolute tip thanks to Him and Jelly, and have derailed today with their refusal to give a time they might be here and stick to it. 2ish or 3ish will be whenever they feel like it anytime up to half 4. So they can get bent to be honest. I am arranging something until 3pm and something else at 5. When they come in between that is up to them but they will be gone before 5. I want my dinner and evening to myself.
Anyhow rant over, I am trying to have a nice day regardless of horrid guests.
Hope you all have a lovely day too!! xxx
