Oh, and on the D perspective, I have a coffee D on Tuesday with A. And another, called D has asked too, although I'm not sure if I scared him off with the W word.
Very exciting, Bossy! Enjoy
A blowy night here, but we are still in one piece, I think.
This morning I must pack up two parcels and take them to the post office. I have already watered my plants on the kitchen windowsill and DR table, decluttered a cuppa and researched aquafit classes :rotfl: Must pot up my baby hellebores laterand deal with the other frog
We might go and see some more snowdrops tomorrow, as the weather forecast promises some improvement, and although today is going to bring yet more rain, tomorrow we are due to get sunshine all day.
Hope everyone has a good weekend!0 -
Happy birthday Vanilla xxx
The wind is still fierce. The fence is still standing!
DH has hired a rug dr machine for the weekend. He has to collect it at 10am. He's given no thought as to how it will be returned at 10am Monday. He's in London and I'm at work. Why don't men think things through?
Despite my mantra of no food or drink in the living room a large dark grey/black stain has appeared on the cream coloured carpet (inherited when we bought the house). Nobody will own up.
I've had a very successful week in eb@y. 2 parcels posted yesterday and one more to go today. 4 more items as yet not paid for.
I hope everyone has a good day.0 -
Morning all
Still very windy here but no rain. Just going to make a second cuppa and empty DW then I need to shower and go and feed neighbours kitten.
Not sure what the plan is for today but I'd like to try to get this week's list finished as I wrote it.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
hello everyone I am a little late in posting but I have been reading.
Very sorry I missed out *Leaders* birthdays I hope each of your birthdays was fab!
I got my first valentines card of my OH ever and it said to my Fiance on the front hahahaha I would like to point out I am not male and we are not engaged haha! We never do valentines day normally and now I remember why!
I have my two small boys being ill this week so I gave been catching up with washing and S&S kitchen and bathrooms.
Health visitor came for ds1 2 year check up, she confirmed my thinking of seeking a second opinion from a different G.P. He does not sleep at night for longer then a hour at a time he will get up and walk about during the night fully awake. Also speech is a worry but speech therapy wont touch him till he's 3 and his behaviors are quite bad but some of that could be due to the sleep and speech. Anyway I have another nappy to deal with back later.
I hope we all have a good day x0 -
Morning!
S&S done and washing up, also DS bed in wash.
Not doing much today, DH is at work all day until 7pm so it'll be something easy for dinner and snuggles on the sofa for me and the kids!
Too windy and cold to go out anywayI'm C, Mummy to DS 29/11/2010 and DD 02/11/2013

Lots of lovely smiley valentines posts. I love it. At messy church yesterday one child made a card for his dog. That's my kind of child!!
DH had taken me for a meal earlier in the week as we were both busy yesterday but I also got my favourite sweets and flowers (cheap, very MSE apparently).
I won't be flying properly until w/c 24th Feb as I've got a few days off with DH. I plan to just do the minimum to keep the joint tidy and spend the rest of the time either doing hobbies etc that I don't normally get time for, or actually going out if the weather improves.
This morning, I have made meringues to have with fresh cream and out of season strawberries later (anyone have any idea why meringues never stay pure white like the ones in the shops?), washed up, put the dog bedding in the WM and have hoovered through the house including the sofas.
Well, it is dry here at the moment, so I am going to take my lovely dogs for a walk.
Catch you all later. Hope you all have a great day.Spend less now, work less later.0 -

By the way, can I now show my ignorance, and ask, what's "messy church" please?:o I have visions of a building with an altar, pews and stained-glass windows in dire need of the Flyladies' touch.:oIf your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0
