    I think the number of times Nicki has stressed this is NOT A DATE hint quite heavily that it IS lol..

    Actually, now it's been confirmed where we're meeting and what we're doing (well we're starting off with a stroll and seeing where we end up) I'll tell you now that I'm meeting up with a very old friend who I haven't seen properly for a long time to have lunch - and its NOT A DATE as he has a girlfriend :p Trust me, if it was a date, it wouldn't be happening tomorrow lunch time :rotfl::rotfl: BUT thats not going to stop me going upstairs tonight and having a long hot soak, defuzz etc etc ;) If I was brave enough I would have coloured my hair again as well....we'll have to see ;) I must ask OH to do the ironing tonight, my nice jeans are in there and the ones I'm currently wearing have got chocolate cake on them :o

    Need to go and sort out the kitchen and I guess I should think about something for tea...might just make omlettes :o Will check in again later :wave:

  • I have done nothing!

    Went to see a very nice man about my shoulder this morning who gave me the giggles when he was manipulating my spine. :rotfl:

    Then I met up with a friend I'd not seen since July, went into town to change DS's Hallowe'en costume for the next size up, bought a couple of pressies, collected DS from school, came home and sat on my backside.

    Tea is mash, fish fingers and beans as I'm in a lazy mood.
    Must try harder.

    Michelle- pleased all went ok for you this morning.
    lil_me- can't really add any more to what has been said, but I do hope everyone's ok

    I can hear the Pringles shouting to be let out of their tub! :j
    ...it is not of more importance than daily life, which I have an enduring wish to make as useful and beautiful as possible.

    Hi All

    DD off school again so not a lot done. Did a job application this morning and dropped it off as the closing date was today. DH on a night out tonight so will try to do some bits after the kids have gone to bed. Will probably aim to just do level 1 in the bathroom later. However, the downstairs is looking fairly tidy - the sides in the kitchen are still fairly cluttered but I'll do them when they come round next week unless I di them over the weekend.

    Michelle - Pleased to hear your scan went okay.

    lil-me - hugs to you and your friend's family - thinking of you all.

    Hugs to everyone else - I've lost track of what I'm saying!

    Hi All.....
    THE WEEKEND STARTS HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I'm so glad the week is over, though I still have to ferry children to and from youth group, so I don't get to start drinking till about 9:30...but still.
    I don't think I'm going to do anything this weekend, just dailies.
    I think we are seeing some friends tomorrow and we've got people for lunch on Sunday...hey isn't it the rugby tomorrow??

    I've been posting ebay parcels, I need to get the stuff that hasn't sold into the loft, in a box...I can't face it....I'll see how I feel in a bit....

    DS back, looking tired. I also need to make a start on his washing..
    You know everytime I come on here, thinking I've done everything and something about this place makes me think of more stuff ( that sucks!!)

    Will be back again, no doubt, but for anyone I don't see, have a fabby weekend!!

    Evening all just popped into to see if there was any news on baby Matthew.
    Tea done - only beans on toast - did not feel like cooking.

    Frankie I'm only doing the taking to youth club so will be back home be 6:45. Don't often drink now days but do fancy a glass tonight.

    Not flown since Tuesday but house not too bad. Going to do a quick 30 minutes in DS3 room - bed already stripped and hoove upstairs.

    Weekend is full of kids footie and friends for dinner so apart from a quick tidy and hoover downstairs not aiming high.

    Hope to fly a bit more next week

    OH has come in from work looking awful - they're main computer with all the teaching resources and email etc has died and they need to start all over again :eek: It took them a full week to just install the email system so it looks like its going to be a very bad week here :o He's now in the bath trying to de-stress and i've just been to the Co-op and bought 2 bottles of cola and a big bar of Galaxy for him ;)

    Tea is now going to be sausage sandwiches - and I'm about to go and put it on in George. :wave:
