Well done on the HHC Aimee.
Lil_me, you relentless bargainer you.. well done! Bit disturbing the news about the stabbing though.
Ta embb, I will sort it. Shame about Mr Facebook but at least he's honest I suppose.

Got a jac-tat in the oven so I'm just going to pootle and potter 'til that's ready.

Mr Messy.. hmm.. I'm coping with his 'ways' but there are other things bothering me and I think I need to wind it up but I'm awful at doing that, I feel guilty so I battle on..

You'll not find the perfect person if he is still on the scene.. Practise saying it.. it'll never sound right.. but just say it anyway.. you could soften the blow by telling him you don't think it is going anywhere in the throes of passion... you could say 'you are getting on my t!ts'.. but he might think you meant literally.. lol

Don't waste any time waiting until you are miserable is not acceptable.. I won't let you do that.. I can come tell him if you want.. I am SO good at that.. ask my friend Sarah.. she loves me!

Hiya everyone
littlemisssaver - sorry to hear about the iron problem, I hope they sort you out soon.
Rach - hugs to you and don't forget to breathe - believe me it helps!
Just got back from my mum and dads. I am sooooo tired think i'll go and have an early night. I finished my list but can't be bothered to find it to cross it all out. Also managed an hours fast walking today as part of getting healthy.

Over the weekend i'm just going to try and keep the place straight. With my OH at home that is easier said that done.

Hugs to all xx

Welcome to the weekend. :j


Actually, not sure why that is making me jump about, as i am shattered and the to-do list is still a long one. :rolleyes: But at least if we are awake at 6:30am i will not be running around.

Ok, firstly, hugs to you all.

serena glad you are physically a bit better. I'm sure your mum will know that you are there when you can be. I have the same problem visiting my dad at the moment, and he says its ok but i do feel bad. But, own health and maintenance have to be thought about.

Rach :beer: happy birthday. Sorry to hear the stress is starting to get to you.

embb steer well clear - you don't need any added stress from a man.

hope the poorly little ones let you get some rest over the weekend. Charlie was very snotty and mardy again, and had a sore bum, so i think we may get some teeth problems over the weekend.

Achieved today:

• taught 3 lessons
• finished ammending a scheme of work
• dealt with a stack of paperwork
• found out i will be observed definitely next week by one of the assistant heads. :eek: Don't know when, but i printed out the guy's timetable to narrow it down from 17 possibilities. :cool: A little. So lots of thorough planning over the weekend, although it may work in my favour as he scares the kids so they are more likely to behave themselves for me than a usual monday. 9 week to go and counting.
• transmitted shop and scan data
• remembered to put out two carrier bags of old bedding and my old dressing gown for textile recycling
• got spag bol out of freezer for tonights dinner

I think i might just pop and write a weekend list to organise my thoughts a bit.

Michelle, x

Thanks Pigpen, ta too for the offer of you coming to tell him for me.. Very tempting for this coward but probably best not! I will repeat the mantra. He's the one responsible for the gazillion pics of me on my facebook which bugs the t's off me as I'm quite private really. Anyhow..

I don't think I'll be Flying much tomorrow, I've promised to meet up with a friend whose girlfriend has just dumped him and then to go round to mr messy's for the evening. Something tells me it's going to be a lonnng day.

Signing off now to watch some drivvel. Have a good weekend all x
