    LOL Tia.. my hubby would go to work if all his limbs were hanging off and his lungs were coughed out of his nostrils, his eyeballs sneezed out and hanging down his face.. he definitely would be made to work harder if he stayed at home.. plus if he is at work he is giving the germs back to whoever gave them him in the first place!! lol.. share and share alike just not with me!! He gets sympathy at work!!

    Tiddles is banished to her dog basket... I don't feel like I have stopped yet today but haven't actually achieved anything as I have been on the phone most of it chasing TD parts, sorting ISP out (they cut us off for illegal download. again LMAO.. NOT my fault I will add!!!)

    It turned out to be a bad stomach bug. He had the runs really bad... uhm... I could say more but I wont. :rotfl:

    The sod that 'bought' the xbox steering wheel hasn't paid, hasn't replied... Its a scammer. :mad:
  • big hugs to tracey - remember, we all have kids who paddy at home. My DS does,and that is on a regular basis. Is Sam frustrated at not being able to do something, or tired or teething again? They are always worse here when charlie is shattered or feeling ill.

    My monkey man has twigged that i can't follow him into small spaces at the moment like behind the chair or the dining table. So if i say, come on it is time to go to bed, or get out his shoes and coat, he runs into a gap and stands giggling at me. They are too clever by half for 15 months, and that is maybe with Sam, possibly frustrated.

    lil-me 2 bin bags of rubbish :eek: Where on earth did all that come from. No matter what we bin there is always more isn''t there.


    well, just having lunch, i have been mega productive today, and done lots of niggly things that will ease my stress i think. Shame i can't also do something about the pains in my sinus's and my back ache. It has helped massively DH dropping charlie off this morning, as they left at 7:30 and i haven't really stopped since.

    I think i will carry on marking after lunch - 5 more books from the y9 set, then i will have the load in the WM currently in to hang up on the airers, then it will probably be time to get a couple more housey bits done, but also a sit on the sofa with my feet up and a chapter of my book i think before getting charlie. best remember to shut all the windows too, and flick the hot water heater on to wash up and bath charlie tonight.

    so many thoughts, so little time to act on them

    Michelle, x

    And that makes a difference.. how? Do they not have loos at work? Saved money on your loo roll as well!! :rotfl: :rotfl: AND had a bag of 'spares' in the car!

    Give them time.. they may have been away for the weekend.. or be ill.. send a nice email asking if all is ok and if they have changed their mind could they please let you know so you can offer it to someone else.. and the the mutually agree not to complete the transaction and get your fees back!!
