So sad. Reminds me of losing OH.


Hello all


Skinty please take it easy
LW - divine retribution my a$$. You do more in a day, than fully fit people do in a month.
Bossy - glad the neighbours are banding together
Pigpen - such a shame DD2's boyfriend has such an uncaring family. No wonder why he lashes out. However it's no excuse for cutting your broadband and throwing food.


Frogs eaten: Email sent, glasses posted back, new battery brought for my smoke alarm.


Frogs remaining: Fill out passport application, get passport photos taken. Buy a thank you card, one of OH's friends is going to put a rose on his grave for me as I'm too far away to do it myself. It would have been our anniversary yesterday.


Coping vibes to those with children doing exams.

I've just made a white-choc rocky road mix to use as a cheesecake base - the young lad in our team is 24 this week, bless him, and since I am the only female in the team (and they regularly cajole me into baking) it seems I'm in charge of birthday fodder. The guys have sourced a card and a bottle of red, so I guess that's fair. He's apparently not a fan of regular cake, and this is easier for me as it's no-bake :T so the base is in the fridge and I'll do the cheesy bit later.

That sounds delicious! Please can I have [STRIKE]a slice[/STRIKE] the recipe?:o

Lamewolf - divine (or otherwise) retribution? - load of carp IMO. Mind you, so's RA. Lupus on top must be agony. I'm glad you have Mr Wolf who sounds like a good 'un x

Now you understand why I'm estranged from my family....:cool:
Mind you, when he got prostate cancer, my mother was ordered not to tell me - lest I might have thrown the "divine retribution" thing at him for systematically abusing me for 10 solid years.:cool: Sorry - I still feel bitter about the whole thing. *pulls self up by bra-straps* Onwards and upwards.;)

Indeed; he turned a rotten deal round to do so much good for other sufferers.
Sleep well, Stephen.

And Skinty, please, please look after yourself.

Pizza dough has been made, and the BM is now on for a loaf; I'm still just doing little tasks and resting between; but in the spirit of the List, I will give the loo a good scrub, as best I can, in a bit.:o

I actually managed 16 rows of knitting yesterday afternoon before my wrists gave out!:T Maybe I shouldn't mention that the bit I'm on is the little band to go round the armholes, and there's only 8 stitches per row.....:rotfl:

Dd2 confided in dd1 that fb actually hit her!!!! I am so angry.

Middle room vacuumed, hallway and stairs vacuumed, 4 boxes and one roll of fabric rehomed. I found another carrier full once my friend had left.. Silly me!!! I will have more later no doubt!!

2 binbags of stuff in the bin and half a recycle bin filled.

3x WM
1x TD
1x DW with at least 2 more to go!!

I will have a habitable house!!

Pixie has decided to crawl now we have floor space for her to do so!

I have someone coming next week to hopefully buy my twin pushchair.

Afternoon all

So sad about Stephen Sutton, the courage he showed was humbling.

Going to have a cuppa, put washing on the line and then see how the lawn mower feels about cutting the grass.

Afternoon all

Things are going too well here for my liking. I'm at the stage with work that I'm usually at at around 5pm on delivery day. This is a rare occurrence and its a little unnerving :rotfl: At this rate I can have tomorrow day time off for a change

I have a third load in the machine so can declare the bathroom done DD is due to finish school soon so I'm going to crack on with the next stage of work then DD, homework permitting, can come with me to Mr A and help me carry some shopping back since she's in locust mode again

Right, onwards with work. :wave:

Piggers the wee git and then he has the cheek to give you a half a**ed "sorry". Some please don't want help and don't have respect for anyone, even those that try to help. You have done all you can for him and if he doesn't see that then that's him own problem.
