Aaaarrghhhh OH is painting the kitchen
I am learning new swear wordsThe tamest of which is "d!ckwad" :rotfl: I am hiding away with the marking. Three more to do before my self imposed deadline of 6.00 when i shall ring my dad and open the wine :beer: No dry january for me, I'm afraid. As soon as there's a "can't" there's a "want"
The result of the kitchen being out of action is that we will have to have left over curries for tea - such a shame- I've pulled about 5 bits of this and bits of that out of the freezer which also frees up freezer space :T
Right, pick up that pen....I wanna be in the room where it happens0 -
Hester sending much love from here.
That pie with marzipan sounds fab, I am sure I have some out of date marzipan in the pantry.
Quiet day here and hubs is in bed again so keeping busy trying to crochet. Had a very scary day with my arm yesterday with intense pain when I was getting dressed. Hubs heard me scream and found me crying with my head on the work surface - must be bad to make me cry. Then had it a few times more when I was doing nothing. Did get a bit more sleep last night though even with Dgs glued to me
Dgs is desperate to go back to school on Tuesday and its causing tummy problems for him but with a bit of cajoling he is actually consenting to 'go' He just misses his new school so much. They seem to be teach him some songs which I have never heard before and sound rather long but he knows all the words.Clearing the junk to travel light

Made 3 banana loafs , to use up old bananas , pulled some random tub from freezer for tomorrow, god knows what it is lol ... so tea tomorrow may be fun . No room in there still , as dh brought home half a lamb , hence chops for tea .
Busy week, work and meetings Mon and Tues nights, then hospital Thursday night to get results , Friday night are always mayhem ..
Curry sounds good .£223/ £250 GC0 -
Welcome Honeybee & thank you.
More changes afoot at work, I have a meeting with my line manager to hear what diktats are to be passed down from on high.
I wouldn't mind if there was some sort of cohesive plan, but it's all headless chicken behaviour.Chin up, Titus out.0
