Being a domestic goddess I packed stardrops, microfibre cloths & zorflora in my suitcase for the trip home.
YS is still asleep near the computer. Must be annoying him as he's rolled over twice.Too bad.
Off into the kitchen shortly so I can feed the lions for lunch. Lovely day outside. Boo Hoo. Have a good night sleep everyone & enjoy your holiday in Spain Granny. Fancy ironing your bikini. That's a bit OT.
Byeeeeeeeeeeeee
Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia.0 -
well the girls have just left me with the washing up and the words "we'll let you do it ocs we know how fussy you are .... "
dinner was prawn cocktail, mussels, salmon and veg - by the time it got to dessert i was a bit worried it was going to be fishcake!!!!!! no it was all lovely really - the first time they've ever cooked a meal together for me. I got some avon stuff from dd(22), an hmv voucher from dd(18) and a poem from dd(11) - the poem is a bit dark actually - she said she tried to write about what a lovely person i am but couldn't so wrote some spooky horror thing instead.
oh just fiound the poem on the computer so here it is
My poem
No-one hears the sound,
So they keep on talking.
The footsteps become louder,
But they carry on walking.
As excitement fills inside,
I bubble up within.
I think of all the things,
That are just to begin.
It was all just to easy,
As no-one looked behind.
I thought of the signal,
And sent it through my mind.
No-one saw the creature,
That came from the door.
Hatred opened within,
As people were dying more and more.
hmm - it's lovely i suppose but not what I expected when my darling baby sits down to write a peom about her mummy
well i will now tackle the washing up as well as cooking for a picnic tomorrowI'm going to feed our children non-organic food and with the money saved take them to the zoo - half man half biscuit 20080 -
donny-gal - thought you were in Holland when you mentioned Leiden the other day (your details say spain and I didn't want to show my ignorance
). I've got a friend who lives in Leiden
Sorry to confused, we are currently on holiday in Holland, but we have a place in Spain as well as Yorkshire, so as we have recently been made redundant, now share our time betwen the two, SKI-ing, when we are not on holiday IYKWIM.
