Hello Everyone,

Just a very quick hello as my life if still nightmarishly manic.

My 3 big uns have gone to Cornwall with their grandparents for a week. DH is sulking because he's not gone too!

I'm staying home with the little ones as it's a surfing holiday and Atlantic rollers don't really fit the bill for paddling.

Enjoy the summer holidays - no school for 6 weeks

Evening all!

just made it home, our town is flooded yet again! had to leave the car in town and walk home.
Still pouring here!

Havent read the thread or finished yeaterdays as I've worked 23 hours since yesterday morning!but I'm off to catch up in a minute! I hope you're all ok and not flooded out.

Evening everybody :hello:

Haven't managed to get on here until now :rolleyes:

Well I went out with my little brother last night, he and his flatmate found a flat that was perfect for them but they are going to lose out on it because his flatmate doesn't want to move yet (he doesn't really have enough cash for the summer and wants to bum around till the graduate job starts :rolleyes: ) Anyway I hope they find something else in the same area - it would be dead handy for me to visit

I am feeling grateful today that I have my brother. I've just found out that my mum's best friend's son was killed last week in a road accident. I hadn't seen him since he was little, but I remember going to Sunday School with his sisters

Glad that awful rain earlier didn't last. It's a lovely day now and I'm sitting at home with the windows open, listening to this evening's Prom concert on the radio I considered going to the concert (I have a season ticket so can go to as many as I want ) but fancied an evening in. Glad I did actually - I'd have had to battle the Harry Potter crowds on the way back (JKR is doing a live reading at the Natural History Museum which would have been right on my way home :eek: ) - I'll pick mine up tomorrow morning from Asda/Morrison's (if I get it tonight I won't get any sleep :j :j

Mrs_mix your daughter looks so cute

Love Rzl xx :wave:

Thriftlady - some of us are waiting for HP7 too - hopefull it will vill the void left by the end of dr who for 10yo dd

school finished at 2pm and dd came home full of pringles and fizzy drinks courtesy of a surprise class party as the kids had the best attendance in their year.

need to be really really OS this week - blew some money when exbil as over earlier in the month and my tax credits haven't come through. i'm a bit worried because i had to wait till last wednesday for my p60 to renew my claim and when I phoned them I failed the security test as they had dd's name and dob wrong. phoned them again and sorted it out but am worried now. I will give it till monday and then phone again

have a great evening

been back to look at the flood water and the whole town is under water!:eek: a very kind man in a canoe went and moved DH's van from where he'd had to leave it on to higher ground, we're really grateful to him,:T not sure how long it'll be before we can go back for it! all the shops are flooded up to waist height at least as well as loads of houses, am keeping my fingers crossed again for my Mums house which is near the river, don't think she'll get much sleep somehow! It was on TV earlier.

Hope everyone else is ok.
Take care xxx

Good evening all :hello:

Just popping on to catch up on today and to wish you all a lovely weekend as I wont be able to get on line till Sunday might be getting mse withdrawal symptoms by then :rotfl:

I managed to get a feather head band for the wedding tomorrow and a bag to go with my shoes. Got my hair dyed back to its natural colour today -this is going to take some getting used to. I had it dried straight too ( my hair is naturally [strike]frizzy[/strike] curly ) DD said it makes me look younger what is she after ?

DD & DDog are at my Mum & Dads tonight so I have the house all to myself. I have to get up early tomorrow for the wedding - I hope the rain doesnt ruin the photos. My Mum has hand made a lovely card for me to give the vouchers in.

After all of your reccomendations I bought the Jodi Piquot book My Sisters Keeper today so cant wait to get into that. Im still 1 book behind on Harry Potter but with my holidays coming up Im sure I will get caught up :rolleyes:

Right must get to bed - I was supposed to be having an early night.

Have a good weekend :hello:

Mrs Mix...your daughter is absolutely beautiful and her outfit is lovely!

Taplady, hope that your mother's house is not flooded...is it ever going to stop...someone should tell whoever is doing this that it is July! Congrats on your weight loss...must sort myself out soon.

Hugs to all

Marie
