Hello, just popping in before bed, had a bit of a disaster, cleaning the rats out and Misty the I can climb any thing rat managed to get up on the shelf with Tabitha the hamster on, and Misty bit her through the cage.

I was beside myself for about 10 minutes and so was tabitha, poor poor tiny tiny girl, there wasn't that much blood thank GOD but Tabitha couldn't put her foot down and I just stood there with my hand over my mouth trying not to freak.

I have had a look at her and its not as bad as I thought. I gave her a bit of farley's rusk -not something she has ever had before, and not on the recommanded food list but I hoped it might cheer her up! I keep checking on her tho. I didn't touch after wards, in case she could sense I was freaking I just spoke to her gave her chocolate drops. she is such a darling little thing, so gentle.

any way the rats got done, and fed before 11 which is a bit of miracle!

I am going to have a think about the lists and adapting them to my jobs, I think i said that yesterday. but I really will!

night everyone.

Pigpen - I managed 3/4 hr ironing before I had to get ready for the dreaded W*** word so I nearly finished my list - can I have half a dog biscuit?

Mudbath - have you tried poking it from the other end, as the actress said to the bishop?

Am sitting here pulling an allnighter for someone else but it's going quite quickly so far. I've bought a pile of stuff in to do - I need to start a list book to get all of my arrangements clear - I'm sick of waking up thinking "I must do that"

yes Kaz, it is my wedding I'm arranging. Me and Biggibbon get hitched on 23 Aug but we only decided to do it a few weeks ago so lots to do - I've just collected little miss trouble AKA my darling niece's flower girl dress and shoes that complement mine and a tiara for me - the girls at work have been making me do wonder woman impressions all night!!

Will still try to be a good girl tomorrow and tackle the Tues list once I've surfaced from my pit

:bdaycake: Happy Birthday Sharon - have one for me!

Hi everyone,
Sorry I didn't catch up with you all again. Once my friend had gone home I didn't do anything else!
I hope you are all ok...big hugs to everyone...

Well I managed some of yesterday's list, so I'm quite impressed with myself!

I'm out again this morning from about 10:30, only for an hour or so, though.
Hopefully I can get quite a bit done today....

I will try to keep up with you all today!

Likklegibbon - good luck with arranging the wedding, such a short time scale, hope you get it all done without too much stress

Thanks for all the birthday cake everyone its lovely. OH and eldest kids had gone before I woke up this morning so gotta wait for my pressie and cards from them until this evening. Although middle daughter did leave a "happy birthday post it" on my computer screen lol

Gotta go to the post office today and then just the list to do. Going to have a realtively quiet day I think and as we don't really do birthdays in our house I expect it will be a quiet evening too
