Morning all (just!)
Happy Birthday Smokeybabe, just read your post from yesterday, fingers crossed you get some more good news asap. Hugs to you and yours.
Hope everyone is ok today
Thanks to all for the congratulations for our lil baby boy
Had to get up at 6.30am to take OH to the station, hes in Glasgow again until Thursday night :j oops i meanlol. DD isn't at school because of her tummy bug so shes not happy, i'm still ill and my chest feels lots worse today so i've got an app with the doctor at 4.30, hopefully i can have something to help.
Not going anywhere today apart from docs, just catching up on the washing (have got very behind with DD being sick on all the bedding and jammies etc) and also making lists (i love a list, me!) for things for baby, house, shopping, meal plans, new budget etc. I feel the need to really get organised with everything so it wont be too hard to stay on top of things when Baby T arrives.
Dont think i'll bother with meals today, DD is on plain food, toast for brekkie, jacket potato for dinner etc and i'll just have some soup probably.
Take care all

Hi everyone! Happy Birthday to Smokeybabe!!
I was so pooped from getting up early yesterday I was in bed by 8.45 last nite!!!:eek: Have checked mum's plane landed 1/2 hr late (must be due to the weather at sydney) - just phoned my brother's and they are on their way home atm - so I haven't heard how the Qantas Service was yet! last time she went cathay pacific and they were excellent.
I didn't get to the gym this morning either (Mioliere I know the feeling by the time you've done all the errand!) - but I did go out for a run with DH!! aww gawd...I came back looking like I had sun burn!!:rotfl: I've got swimming with the kids later, so at least ive done something today.:D
Dinner tonite will be rump steak (whoopsed in asda;) ) - darn it - just forgot I dont have any mushrooms!! I wont go back in asda otherwise I will end up grabbing stuff I dont need!!:o
Charliesmum - good luck at the weigh-in! 2lbs for a cuppa:eek: I dont think its actually the tea with the calories....more like the cake & biscuits that you have to have with the cuppa that is the 2lb!!:rotfl: :rotfl:
anniestar - well done on the weight loss!:T
littlemisskitkat - good news on the baby boy!:T

Happy Birthday Smoky glad OH is a little more stable
someone yesterday mentioned that their DD was being bullied I hope that things have gone better for her today its an awfull thing to be happening take care both of you
not had a good morning we have had a prepayment meter for our elec and gas as we had a big bill just changed the gas to a normal meter wanted to change the elec but they say there is still a debt of £200 as they have not been taking the debt off and no one noticed for 7 years i am not happy:mad:
and to make matters worse i have managed to pay Barclycard twice tried to pay and it was so slow i canceled and tried again and its gone through twice:mad: still at least its over £300 and it is 0% so probably done me a favour
hugs to all who need them0 -
afternoon all

Anniestar :wave:
Shez - :wave:
Smokybabe - good luck at the hospital today and if I was you I would chose another day for my birthday when DH is out of the woods and we can all celebrate your day with you with cakes and stuff:o
[strike]
Cleaned the toilets, swished my house and the other 6 on the Close and mopped the floors. Bread maker on and SC ready for later. May do some crafting later
[/strike] cant lie havent really but the thought was there:D
Actually had a hellish morning - my office printer decided its photoconductor unit was dead and promptly gave up (ta for the warning) nobody stocks them locally due to the extortionate cost so they need ordering in - and I have a course tomorrow in Cardiff needing lots of workbooks:mad: . Anyway books sorted now thanks to a very slow but thankfully still capable inkjet printer but I am now a couple of hours later setting off than i hoped (so i thought 10 mins on here wouldnt matter:D ) So off now to Cardiff and hotel living (no swishing needed at all:j but the downside is the horrid and expensive room service :sad: )
Hugs to all who need them

Hello all !
Well, been out and got another frame for photo I'm sending to Mum.........managed to cut the mount out for it without making one mstake ! I surprised myself with that really considering every shop I went into this morning I had to consult my list to see what I went in there for and then having bought said item forgot to pay...........how embarassing having to be reminded I hadn't paid for what I'd got......................lol Head must be on a roundabout or someplace else.
Didn't sleep too well last night, or the night before...........maybe thats the reason............now just have to wrap Mums photo up ready to post tomorrow.
MIL prefers flowers -well she dropped enough hints on the phone last night so, there's me trying to save a few pence and now I'll end ordering flowers and the price always zooms up for Mothers Day. I'll go through the florist direct but its not the cheapest of places for flowers..........still, they do a nice bunch and she's worth it.
OH's niece has given birth to baby daughter and MIL said would I make a card for them.............was going to do that this afternoon but don't think my brain would stand ploughing through all my card stuff.............I'd end up making right mess of it.
Letter rack is about to fall over its so full of 'stuff' that needs sorting out..........just rememered something I need too send off, plus I've got to somehow word a letter to a site owner...........ordered goods from a site Jan 12th,,,, cheque cleared but no goods arrived........no reply from e mails or phone calls so I've been advised to send letter registered post - sort of final demand................not sure how to word it but needs to be done.
Oh well..........thats my day.
Hope you're having a good one and hugs ((((((((((((((:o ))))))))))))) to all those who need oneMary
I'm creative -you can't expect me to be neat too !

Hi
Smokeybabe Happy Birthday. You can celebrate your birthday properly when your DH is home and well again soon.
I've got both girls off school today as they both woke up with temperatures and sore throats. Unfortunately DH and I are both have stinkin' colds and coughs so it must be their turn! :rolleyes: I'm hoping that a day on the sofa for them both with do them some good and then they can return to school tomorrow as I'm due to go into work.
I've managed to give the house a good clean and there is a beef stew in the sc so I might just curl up on the sofa alongside the girls.
Have a good day!0 -
Afternoon everyone and another Happy Birthday to SMOKY - hope your day is going as well as can be expected.
Well, I actually managed to sort out all my craft stuff, start making a Mother's Day card, wrap Mother's Day pressies and get to the gym. I've prepped for dinner and I'm just about to sit down for half an hour and get some knitting done and then do some work. After feeling as if I didn't accomplish much yesterday, I feel as though I've actually achieved something today.
It rained first thing this morning but the sun is out now, although I didn't bother pegging the washing out - it's airing on the clothes horse.
Well, think I'll have another cuppa then do my knitting so see you all later.
TWINK - I haven't been able to get the picture of you, elevating yourself off the bridge under your own steam, out of my head all day. I do hope your problem has eased somewhat! I'm afraid the stovies I made the other day had that effect on my DH, not that he needs much encouragement!
Anyway, bye for now

Afternoon all :hello:
I've been flitting on and off today so not had time for a proper post.
I hope you have as good a day as you can Smoky and I second what Nels said and we postpone your birthday for you.
It's also Mr Pink's Birthday!!! Happy Birthday DBIL :beer: Your card is in the [strike]card shop[/strike] post.
Moliere.........I think naughty Aussie was messing with Twink's post. :rolleyes: Imagine!!
Churchie.... Where are you? Have you found those Bread machine !!!!!! sites again? :rolleyes:
Pooky and Nelski... I hope your days improve. xxx
I've been doing some paperwork for OH at home today as the weather is so foul that I couldn't face going to the office. In between that I have built a new desk, cleaned up, made beds and done a few loads of washing. I also hung some new door curtains in the hall and on the door to the decking on the landing. Unfortunately small black cat has decided to use behind them as an ambush point and keeps making me spill my coffee as she jumps out when I'm walking past. :rolleyes:
Spag bol for tea and a wholemeal loaf ready to go in the oven.
Take care.
