    Hello :wave:

    Can i just say thank you to the people that rallied behind cjj when she went for a job as it inspired me to get a job aswell. I have been at home with my three for 17 years so i was a bit daunted going back to work, but i am doing a similar job to tweets and am enjoying talking to adults during the day.
    Thank you for all the glitches aswell . :T

    That's lovely, well done. :T

    Am completely stuffed, went to toby carvery with a friend for tea. Was delish!

    Been a stressful day trying to get hold of people at hospital to sort things out for tomorrow. Eventually sorted by 3pm. Transport coming at 11, picc line being inserted, then over to other hospital where bed has been booked ready for my op on Wednesday. Suitcase is packed, just need to do a few bits in the morning.

    Kids are involved aswell. Its a small school without a kitchen, so i pick up the food from a local school and then help serve with two others, tidy up , then drop the clean pots back to be used the next day.

    Thank you everyone for all the good wishes. :)

    That sounds like a lovely job .

    4 staff in our kitchen we have about 180 kids varies daily 170-190.
    Big school with 2 kitchens was 2 schools that merged . I am in junior kitchen :)

    well that was a bit peculiar but if it is that we have been shut down by The Powers That Be we should not really be surprised should we

    I love the title please can we keep it with just a number afterwards each time we re invent ourselves?

    Also I don't mind moving house to the Moneysavers arms if we have to be moved away from grabbit - would red fox still patrol our threads looking for naughtiness or will it be another moderator?

    I now have to try and remember all of the questions and queries I pondered about on the previous thread and got no replies to so I can ask them all over again :D

    I'll go out on a limb and say that the answer to all of your questions was "give it a few more days" :rotfl:

    Why I'm divorced

    Last week was my birthday and I didn't feel very well waking up on that morning.

    I went downstairs for breakfast hoping my husband would be pleasant and say, 'Happy Birthday!', and possibly have a small present for me.

    As it turned out, he barely said good morning, let alone 'Happy Birthday.'

    I thought....

    Well, that's marriage for you, but the kids.... they will remember.

    My kids came bouncing down stairs to breakfast and didn't say a word.
    So when I left for the office, I felt pretty low and somewhat despondent.

    As I walked into my office, my handsome Boss Rick, said, 'Good Morning, lady, and by the way Happy Birthday!' It felt a little better that at least someone had remembered.

    I worked until one o'clock, when Rick knocked on my door and said, 'You know, It's such a beautiful day outside, and it is your Birthday, what do you say we go out to lunch, just you and me..'

    I said, 'Thanks, Rick, that's the greatest thing I've heard all day. Let's go!'

    We went to lunch.
    But we didn't go where we normally would go.
    He chose instead a quiet bistro with a private table.
    We had two martinis each and I enjoyed the meal tremendously.

    On the way back to the office, Rick said, 'You know, It's such a beautiful day... We don't need to go straight back to the office, Do We?'

    I responded, 'I guess not. What do you have in mind?'

    He said, 'Let's drop by my place, it's just around the corner.'

    After arriving at his house, Rick turned to me and said, ‘If you don't mind, I'm going to step into the bedroom for just a moment. I'll be right back.'

    'Ok.' I nervously replied.

    He went into the bedroom and, after a couple of minutes, he came out carrying a huge birthday cake ...
    Followed by my husband my kids, and dozens of my friends and co-workers, all singing 'Happy Birthday'.

    And I just sat there....

    On the couch....








    Naked.:D:rotfl:
    One cannot change the past, but one can ruin the present by worrying over the future.

  • Evening all.
    Hope everybody is well.

    Thanks for the new thread tiny, and thanks VT for showing up on my newsfeed saying the elite page had closed. I thought my iPad was on the blink when I couldn't post.
    I'm defo guilty of not posting much these days- partly thanks to the smallest stink taking up lots of my times but it's also partly because every time I logged in I saw that there was stupid bickering and idiots trying to get everybody's heckles up.
    I'm loving that lots of lurkers have popped up to say hi, so I promise to show my face and post more often.
