Well you bunch of lovelies Nana is back in the building. Started to feel the cloud lifting Then checked my emails to find one from the mse team to say my inbox was full! Well you gorgeous lot (you know who you are) you've made me sob this afternoon reading all your lovely wishes. I've missed you all so much. I've not a hope of catching up on my missing weeks but will try and read back a few pages so forgive me if I've missed birthdays or special occasions. Sending huge heart felt thank yous to all that noticed it been quiet and lots of love xxxxx

Yay, we are cooking with gas again:D

Ameyturtle

Good to see you nana! Missed you x

I love my job you all know that, but just lately I'm starting to feel very agitated with other members of staff today is the second time in 2 weeks I've been called in to cover sick members of staff. I don't begrudge anyone being sick but I am agitated by a member of staff who wants a bigger contract yet can't cover today's shift or one on Sunday for me so that I might actually get a day off.

Anyway time to take more pain killers for yet another headache that won't die.

Love and hugs xxx

Afternoon everyone, another warm one today!! Since i hurt my back i have only been doing light jobs and resting, but oh dear i looked around this morning and my house is blooming filthy, how does it take so little to look so bad but so long to look good??

KATY oh they are gorgeous i especially like the shooting star, i have kept the page in my favourites, thankyou

PRINCESSKITTY oh that is funny that this IKEA will be your nearest one, long time to go though yet unfortunately, most of the buildings are knocked down now ready, as DD2 works right next to it at P*****E and they have noticed a big rat problem where they have all been disturbed, DD2 is as terrified as me so god knows what trouble the big sainsburys is having with them. Plus DD2 is hoping to be on maternity leave for most of the time they are building it as it will be manic with lorries etc Oh that is a lovely thing for you to offer, funnily enough i have just been on there and halfcost, but baulked at the delivery price, thankyou for the offer but i have decided i can wait its not very mse with delivery charges and they dont have to be wrapped its just me being a**l btw i love the babys 1st christmas paper Did you decide on what pram/pushchair you are having after the help? Love the jiffy bag, im sure it will come in handy one day

RUTHHONEY i dont have my own car anymore so cant get anywhere to buy will just postpone til another day, hope you have a good evening, food sounds great! I just dont have any success with pulled pork i have tried it twice now and mine doesnt pull apart like it should

MRSMONEYPENNY aah im glad it was a happy ending for the bird

Sorry-I forget that not everyone has a supermarket within walking distance or a decent bus service. Managed to stay in the garden until about half an hour ago, then it started raining. Cooked enough food to do two or three meals over the weekend too. Didn't have apple pie in the end. Hubby found some maple and pecan tarts in tesco, so we warmed those on the BBQ as it was cooling down. The pulled pork was from tesco and I did overcook it, but it was ok. Haven't tried it 'From scratch' yet.

Half cost often do free p+p over £5, so it's easy to find a few other bits to bring it to that. I'll let you know if I spot it. They did it a couple of weeks ago because I bought a nice striped bath mat and pedestal mat for under £5-had to buy some gift tags to bring it up to get free postage.

Nanamia-so good to see you back again! You've been missed.

Evening everyone,

NANAMIA aah glad you are back, hope everything is ok

MOJOWORKING haha my DD1 is 25 and she went and bought a load of loom bands last week :rotfl:she says it is so relaxing, i cant do it you need small fingers and mine are too fat she even made a loom collar for the dog, DS was disgusted then looked at me and said mum how many??? she has made me 3 so far :rotfl:he said its like living in a m****l a****m so i said she was making christmas decorations next, his face was a picture :rotfl:aww thankyou it is getting better now but i have had to rest it for over a week and a half this time it does not usually linger for this long

AMEYTURTLE it will all be worth it if you get your new position hope your headache has cleared now

RUTHHONEY i blooming wish i did live within walking distance of a big supermarket, i would love that, ooh yours sounds good, i love pecan pie mmm, well DS usually cooks on a friday and he came home with american food so we sort of had our feast we had a burger, hot dog, corn on cob, onion rings and fries then key lime pie for pudding and brownies

Thank you freespirit I think I was just in a bad mood last night, the headache has dissipated a little.

I'm going to try chilling out tonight watching the f1 when I finish at 5.30 and try writing my presentation for the interview Friday.

It is raining here and I can see that effecting people going out today.

Love and hugs xxx

Nanamia which I always read as nan marie it's great to see you back.

Ameyturtle I know exactly what mean. Unfortunately tthere is at least one wherever you work. Mine is the bosses best friend . . .

Free spirit you take it easy. I did invest in a 30 quid proper initial set and I snapped it making a charm dd puts all the bands on courtesy of you tube and if it is too physically hard she asks me to hook them. you can get knock off copy starter kits with the loom for 3 pound so got two of those and I can only fish tail so use two prongs on the broken one I don't know how people do it on their fingers. It hurts. Will get dd to look for xmas decs on you tube . . Love the dog collar idea. Both my arms were laddered at the weekend but only wore 3 to work.

Ruthhoney I struggle with the half cost web site but I'm on my phone there is just so much on there. I will try again.

The weather is very dull I've volunteered to help at a garden fete thing so best scoot. Have a lovely day all x

It's not the best site to look at on a phone. It can be slow at times too. Had email this morning saying 30% extra off homestore, gifts and leisure. But need to spend £25 to get free p+p.
