    Morning, what a miserable day. Today is supposedly the day people will be most depressed, well the weather doesn't help does it?

    G&B hope all goes well with the little one. Pink Fairy fingers crossed here for you x

    Will join that HHC, get that kitchen sorted hopefully, then taking DP to get the next part of his tattoo priced up, model shop etc. Will hopefully report back later.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Yes, there's lots of biscuits :D I'm in for the HHC!!

    I just done my meter readings and I think I figured out which one it was so hopefully it's right, thought I'd get that done before the kitchen cause it was making me a bit stressy.

    See you @ 11am

    *cue benny hill music* GO!

    Morning everyone!! :wave:

    Feeling better about DD and my parenting skills!! Tough love this weekend for my teenager.. She had slammed that door once too often so I got the screwdriver and took the door off her room.. :grin: she is getting the message and bless her, she has been nice and respectful and a joy to be with yesterday..

    So with my new found confidence I am getting stuck into this hovel of a home.. Organised home, organised mind, right??

    Kitchen: Not done much to it yet
    Ironing: done a huge basket full

    today I want to accomplish:
    Levels 1 and 2 for kitchen
    ironing put away
    washing up to date
    living room habitable and clutter free
    get kids to tidy car and get all the rubbish they dump in it out..
    Eat healthily, no junk and lots of fluids

    :grouphug: for you all :wave:
  • I'm just going to put some cookies in the oven while the kettle boils (and the bread maker and washing machine)

    Lil_me - thanks for thread - any luck with the parking prob yet?

    Good luck lilo with egg collection xxx

    Have a great last week as a singleton Rach and fingers crossed for no rain on Saturday for you
    Well done raph on weight loss - over 4 lbs in a week - way to go sport-smiley-001.gif

    GnB - well done on your windfall - you deserve it

    embb - good luck with your interview this afternoon and :bdaycake: for littley

    sexymouse - I've got similar to you, no voice so I'm still off but cause mine's viral haven't been given AB - my doc hasn't charged me for sick notes but that varies from practice to practice I believe

    Pink Fairy - (((hugs))) take things easy, we don't want you out of puff again - your breathing is more important than a tidy kitchen

    pigpen - I'm in again for HHE but I'm doing mine at 11am - how's le puffing le panting doing?

    Sorry if I've missed anyone so (((hugs to all))) and a :coffee: when you've finished with the flying/bouncing up and down

    Better go get my sports bra on and get ready to sweat like a squeaky pig :D
    I'd rather be watching CSI!

    Morning all,
    Well what i weekend - well from friday really hence me not being around.
    DD1 phone 8am on friday morning in tears and extreme pain cutting a long story short i did a double school run, then went back to hers to see what was going on and decided to call a ambulance. was in A & E for 6 hours before they worked out it was her Gall Bladder!!! saturday she was really poorly as on top of this she has got severe Tonsilitus ( won't go into gory details)
    anyway i have spent most of the weekend feeling like a ping pong ball twoing and froing from hospital to home .
    I'm pleased its Monday as i'm not going today so i have a day at home to fly!!! well catch-up on what has been missed out on ie washing etc.
    catch you all later
