    *only takes one :coffee: *
    Mexican wave - woohoo!!!!
    Finally got through to Nintendo and they are sending out a baggy to send my DSlite off to get fixed. DS1 owes me £55 now, he aint happy, but that will teach him for hitting it off the table! He never did that with his own the lil !!!!!!! :mad:

    And just listed some stuff on Amazon to get funds for hubby's Quad fund.
  • back from the HHC:
    • put washing up i did earlier away
    • cleaned sink/draining board/plastic drip tray
    • cooked Ds's tea
    • got WM on with DH's coat i know he wants washing, after spending a few minutes emptying the pockets
    • put the paper recycling out
    • emptied the shredder into the green bin
    • shredded about 10 pieces of paper before it overheated again, so will do some more later
    • swept the dining room floor - was going to do the LR too but there are too many toys out, and seems though they will all be out again once i get the monkey back out of bed i couldn't be faffed - will do it later
    • wiped the dining room table
    • put mobile phone on charge.
    so a little bit better - best go and wake him up then or he will never sleep tonight.

    anw's mum will PM you back this evening - i read it, but have been a bit busy - i think i will need to do a bit of negotiation with you, but i will sort it.

    Back from the HHC x 2!

    I managed to;
    - put wash on
    - dry for ten mins
    - hang so don't need ironing
    - sorted recycling
    - decluttered kitchen
    - sorted out new bags for kitchen bin
    - cleaned work tops
    - taught DD new recorder song for Brownies (quite enjoyed that!)
    - cleaned dining room table
    - cleared piano for tuning tomorrow (£38! scary!)
    - unblocked vacuum cleaner
    - sorted out letters for school
    - phoned mum for chat and tidied round house whilst chatting

    So, quite effective. Sitting down until 6 and then doing another HHC. DS not home until 730. I think I need to get rid of some nervous energy so put your fingers in your ears whilst I scream, are you ready, Aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
    aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
    aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
    aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
    aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    That feels so much better xx

    Joins Mudbath in screaming

    **moan alert**

    I definately need that poem! DP forgot to write his appoinment for tattoo, I find the card, was for today and he's missed it (£20 of mine down drain for deposit) so I said to call the guy just out of being decent and rebook it. Well he refused, screamed at me and swore so I had to call him, I'm not doing it you *** and all the rest of it. Ignorant little **** he is. He'll spend all day on the phone to his mates then won't make calls he should. Think he's naffed off to bed as it's gone quiet with no moaning, ranting etc. I know I will get the - 'but I am in pain alright'- excuse later but I don't speak to him like I've just scraped him off my shoe when I am in pain....Peace!

    **moan over, for now**

    Right, DS2 fed, DS1s dinner in actifry (dunno if I should cook chicken pieces in there but it's in so we'll see) I'll do mine later, having left over korma and pilau (HM) handy thing is it's in 2 seperate pots so if DP doesn't want his/screams he's not eating like a child (common occurance) I can have mine and tell him to get his own later (or if he doesn't eat it I will have it tomorrow)

    Racks are in the DW now, to be honest still not that impressed with the ovenmate stuff, the bag also ripped which was highly annoying, think I will stick to bio powder!
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    lil-me i cant believe you put up with that! I'm sorry but that is way out of order:eek: You didnt have to call him, its his tattoo, if he wants another appt he can call the guy.
    Just having some food, see if it will stay down.
