yay - my hair is back to its ... ahem .... natural colour of reddy black. bits of the bathroom are the same colour too I used a polycolour which was only £1.88 from wilko's - I find this brand lasts longer than the more expensive ones and is not so chemically

Ladymarmalade - I really feel for you but you know the housework will still be there after your degree. In the last few months of mine I decided that I would forget the bulk of the housework so long as my desk was nice and tidy and let the rest go hang. Me and the kids did get a bit sick though from all the ready meals we were eating. Maybe you could set a timer and do a half hour housework a day and then just leave it

Hi, Shez! Didn't catch much over the weekend but I did like Father Ted's cleaning tip :rotfl: :T :A When will he back - I envisage a new thread - Cleaning for Bloke :beer:

Smoky - thinking of you :grouphug:

Pam - hope your dad's OK

Donny - glad DH is on the mend

Elona - ouch - hope you're better soon

Been out in the garden and went and spoke to the hens. DH only collected 4 eggs last night after we'd been away for the weekend. I just collected 7 today; for 4 hens that's some going :T :dance: :easter: (or possibly DH wasn't looking properly :think: :whistle: )

Hi all
been to see dad he's poorly but ok he will be in for a few days they are moving him later to another ward so hopefully he will be more settled
I have spoken to my brother again and his attitude is a bit like he's only telling me what he thinks I need to know and that I don't matter so i will just find out for myself and go and see dad when I know he's not going to be about as I will lump him one if I see him

Hi Guys!

Its been a rough few days but think I am back on track for the moment. I still dont have much energy but wanted to say "hi!":D ....missed ya.

Twink & Donny-Gal-Thanks for all the messages on MSN, although I havent replied much, my OH & DD have been reading them to me.

OH has been painting a radiator cover this afternoon and he has another one to do this week. 3 loads of washing have been done today with 2 loads on the line and the other in the TD. I can't remember what we are supposed to be having today for dinner according to mealplan:o but we are NOW having fish, mash, brocolli and parsley sauce.

Helper was supposed to come this morning but she couldnt get a babysitter, so is coming tomorrow instead which is a pain in the bum as I really could of done with the help today whilst I was at the hospital:rolleyes:

Have an order coming from Ocado at lunch tomorrow after I was sent a £15 off £90 order with FREE delivery. Their prices have come down alot and even their Anchor butter was 20p cheaper than Sainsburys and they had lots of offers. I have ordered some meat/poultry and fish for the freezer along with some frozen veg as theirs isnt too bad.

Anyway I hope all is well.

Smokeybabe-I hope you get some better news soon. Been thinking about you all and praying. Hugs and kisses!

Hugs to everyone that needs one and those that dont:p

Glad you're doing better Pen-pin

I return! lol, didn't have much of a wait this time luckily but we nipped to Asda on the way back for a few bits, then got an avalanche of phone calls from curious grannies and aunties lol. Anyway.....

Its a....... Boy! I'm sulking lol cos i was wrong and OH is beaming at anyone and everyone lol (he was right :rolleyes: ). Everything where it should be and his size is spot on for dates which i was concerned about as i am so tiny, i only have a diddy lil bump. Very happy and feel we can relax more now and enjoy it, that said i haven't been half as stressed this time round and have felt so well in comparison that i've been enjoying it anyway. Have promised to take DD shopping when shes better to choose a lil outfit for him

Take care all

Hi everyone.
Welcome to the newbies
Been helping OH out at wo*k today.
Taking my eldest DD to drs in morning-hope he can tell us what's happening and how we're going to sort it out!!!
(((hugs))) to all who need or want one.
My other DD came home from school upset today, she is being picked on and threatened so I phoned school, but unfortunately there was a meeting, so I am expecting to receive a phone call from someone. I am going to make an appointment and go into school to sort it out!!! I'm fuming!!! My DD has been and is going through so much lately and it infuriates me-I won't go into detail here though.
Woke up with an aching shoulder this am-it's still aching OH says it's an RSI from MSE website!!!
better go and find something for tea!!!

Hi all

I have been at home today catching up with the washing etc having had the boys at the weekend. Thought I could get loads out to dry but it decided to rain at lunchtime and it is now very windy. However have caught up with the ironing and have one more load of washing to hang up once the towels have aired off (I use the upstairs banister which is great for towels and sheets). Have kept an eye on you all but felt I should knuckle down and get on with things as I hopefully decant the kitchen this week. Haven't heard from kitchen guy but as far as I know it is green light a week on Thursday.

Smoky -Hope you are OK and that DH OK; lilmiss - Wow a boy jellybean. Love and hugs; Donny - hope OH OK; Elona - hope your arm not too painful; Mrs M - glad you have seen Dad and that he seems to be on the mend; RRuby - hang in there; ladymarm - please don't stress yourself. Even just one wee thing in the house daily will do; PennyPin - love and hugs.

Welcome to returners and new people. It is lovely to have you here.

Congrats on your wins Kyle - is DH on a promise or has Mum nobbled the tights for the jam!

I am going to be rather non-OS tonight and phone for a carryout. Have been busy and the fact I was up half the night hasn't helped. However I did have a wee nod this afternoon watching mindless telly!

Love to all who I haven't mentioned.
