Is it just my hubby who attracts loonies from all over the planet... you know the ones who talk all the time to anyone everyone and noone about nothing and half of what they do say isn't legible??
No if there is a loon on a train, shop or in the street they make a bee line straight for me - is he an Aquarian?The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Dusty I forgot what the question was....
Pigpen, I did like that station! Lol, good for housework! When I was still at home with my Mummy and Daddy I used to listen to Heart, The Pulpfiction soundtrack and the Police when doing housework. I think I will have to download them again! Or steal the CD's...
Almost time to go get DS1 and then DS2, best go get ready.0 -
Serena - I do understand - having our own cats stops visits from others! Mine know to be discreet. Let me know what plants you needed. Did you get anything in the 90% off at boots - no joy for me - but I am giving it a rest now until my hoard gets used.
Rumbly I am so excited for you - are you going far?The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Thanks for the congrats Tia and jjef.
Dusty - No, I'm not going far. I'm in Surrey at the mo on the Surrey/Sussex/Hampshire border, and am going into Hampshire because we couldn't afford to buy here.It's a town about 20 minutes away from where we are.
We've been renting for the last 18 years, so it's going to be weird owning my own home at last. Have been decorating the flat over the last year, so it's looking pretty shipshape. Need to do a couple of bits more, but I'm not handing in my notice until we've completed, so I've got a bit of leeway to do that when the place is empty. Also need to get the carpets professionally cleaned as we've got cats, but again will be easier with no furniture. Wonder if we'll get the deposit back - didn't on the last place, but we've replaced a carpet, bought a new cooker (which is clean
), and decorated throughout, but there is wear and tear though, and a couple of carpet stains in the lounge. We shall see.
Am very excited, but also mega nervous all of a sudden.
Thank you all for your good wishes!

Shell, I have had my eyebrows waxed before - honestly wasn't that bad, unlike legs which I will never, ever do again. Just tell them you want something natural looking.
I have finished the worst of the house stuff and am trying to do business stuff whilst ds2 is snoring. I need to register as self employed, and I need to do my first two invoices today, but I can't think of a name.
