Missy.. you might strike it lucky and MIL might do all the cleaning and tidying for you.. then you won't be able to make any mess because you won't know where anything is.. and it is called looking 'lived in' not squalid!
.
Oh how I would love that to be the case! Hasn't happened once in 2 years though!! So not holding my breath
Well I managed to hoover and do a few bits before work. Haven't done much else as been stuck at work. Still there now but having a very late lunch break. Tea always tastes so much nicer when you've been waiting ages for a cup!
Well done on the ebeast stuff pigpen! You're making me feel guilty about my huge mountain of stuff! Think I might have to go through it tonight.

Hi all x
Welcome back Poohbear
Picked DD up from school on the way back from the Drs with OH. He's been having these wee turns the past few days, I ended up losing it with him last night because he won't go to the Dr so he got an emergency appointment today. He needs to go for an ecg on Tuesday and will have a blood pressure monitor fitted within the next fortnight. I'm feeling sick about it all, his wee brother had a heart attack about 6 weeks ago.
I've got the WM on and I'm going to get ready for work. No point sitting dwelling.I'm not a muggle...I'm just magically challenged0 -
FFP .. 'just stress' vibes for Mr Princess.. and nothing worth worrying about.. I can see why you and he would be worried though.. the Dr cant have thought it was too serious he's not in hospital now! If that reassures you any?

LMAO.. the person in America who cannot read is now complaining about the shipping costs.. well duh!!! I can't do a thing, I can't send an invoice or change anything..

That's what I'm hoping for he does work far too much it was fine when he was younger but it takes its toll. If the pins and needles he's having (its from his elbow to hand and knee to foot) get worse or start affecting his whole limb we have to dial 999. Just hope that he can SOFA for a couple of days and take it easy. Dr did bloods as he said vitamin deficiency could be a cause but his blood pressure is way too high.
American buyer might learn to read all the words now!
Anyhoo dinner cooking away, I'm changed for work, dog is fed will try to nip in later after work if I get a chance xI'm not a muggle...I'm just magically challenged0
