    Morning All

    Just type a long one and then the site ate it :confused: Having a lazy one today still in bed with the laptop. :o.

    My main job is going to be cleaning out the fridge and defrosting one of the freezers now everything will fit in one. Also need to put up the curtains in the dining room so that I can workout how much they need to be shortened by.

    Apart from that I'm just going to chillout and no doubt have to watch the Wiggles for the hundreth time.

    Weird footnote: The police have just phoned me to tell me that the car has been found :confused: . As they've not even got it anymore its not suprising that they cant catch any criminals is it. Thats just reminded me we are getting it back tomorrow DH and FIL are going to Sheffield to pick it up from the garage :j

    Have a good day everyone

    I'm doing nothing, I'm on strike.

    If someone needs something to wear quickly, I wash it straight away. Ditto ironing. In fact ditto EVERYTHING. Does anyone do the same for me? NO :mad: I had a puncture yesterday, couldn't find the repair kit, son had it last but couldn't be bothered to look for it so I have no bike at the mo. I hoover everyday (plain carpets) but son decides to saw some wood in his room then tramp the sawdust all over the house. Hubby moans to ME what a state the place is in. Son told me he was being picked up at 6am this morning so I set the alarm for 5.15am, have to keep going upstairs to wake him up then after the 4th time he tells me he's being picked up at 7am. He leaves and I wake daughter up twice, same with hubby.

    I have to spend money on bus fare which I don't want to spend.

    And who makes sure I have clean clothes for work? Who cooks my tea when I come home and I'm starving? Nobody, I have to do my own. They don't worry about it cos the fairies do theirs.

    Fook 'em. They can starve and go to work/school in stinky clothes.

    Oh and another thing. My card sales have taken a massive hammering this month, do you know how many I've sold in sept? THREE :mad: I just haven't had time to do anything with them because I'm too busy with the house. When I started my job, I told mr troo there's going to be a few months of me making and sorting cards in the evenings. I can't work, build a business and make sure I've got the evenings 'spare'. I tried to fit it all in and look what happens :rolleyes: So if they want me around in the evenings they'll have to pull their weight. They'll be the only losers if they don't (starving and smelly).

    hello all!

    big :grouphug: for troo - time for a family meeting perhaps?!

    DH and DD off to work and nursery.. I'm revising again, although we've got a man in to fit kitchen worktops this morning, so how peaceful it's going to be I'm not sure.. DH has fitted all the cupboards, but wasn't comfortable doing the worktops, so we thought we'd better get someone in :o not very OS I know!

    Lunch will be the chilli made yesterday in the SC; dinner will be HM pizza I think. Washing out on line - just the ironing to do, but that will wait til after Thursday (viva day :eek: :eek: :eek: )

    have a good day all

    Er .... :o ... I think I gave my froggy-woo a bit of competition on that front :o Gave the neighbour a chuckle ;)

    joannasmum - that'll be because it's a different department, try to remember, it's because *they* have only just been told too ;) :rotfl:

    Well, inbetween reading, posting and piggypoints I've managed to do .... er ... not a lot aside from packed lunches. I'm off to troo's with a bottle of spirit-restorer ;) :rotfl:

    Someone kick me .........
