    Morning...another tired one here. I really want to go back to bed but I've too much to do. Does anyone know if you can freeze chocolate liquors? My local newsagent has given me a big box of liquors that were out of date at the end of May, it's the biggest box you've ever seen and they're lovely but there's no way I want to eat them quickly. I've given my mum and dad half but there's still tonnes left. Can I freeze?

    Have a good day everyone. Thinking of you PF...good luck xx

    I've no idea - could you try freezing one and leaving it a couple of days and then trying it?

    I've done the bathroom and toilet now, even washed the floors! Washing is nearly dry on the line, just keeping an eye on the clouds that keep going by but so far no rain (rained all night).

    Morning everyone, went to docs yesterday and they took hubby's bloods and gave him some anti sickness tablets and he's to leave in a sample, so results should be back monday.

    Phoned nurse this morning to let them know that no tablets have been kept down for a week so he's to get back to me later once he speaks to the doc, hubby not well thoughts wise. He had what i thought was a bad dream on saturday night but he told me he defo wasn't sleeping so i think then it was an hallucination. I knows he may have to go back into hospital because they'll have to build the tablets up slowly but he doesn't mind (he always digs his heels in on the hospital so he knows himself he needs to go in so it most be alot worse than what he's letting on). Hopefully the doc and nurse will get back to me shortly.

    Right i better start flying and i've a few phone calls to make but cuppa of coffee first to keep me going.

    Mudbath we get loads of then beetles to, they come in under the door. There's always loads in the winter.

    Soappie hope your feeling better soon.

    Hello to all newbies.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    Morning all

    Pink if you see this the very best of luck to you

    Mudbath melt the chocolate roll the dead bettles in and freeze as 'treats' for Halloween

    Feeling really tired. Loved the Apprentice last night and yes we all thought he'd win.

    I didn't sleep well and DS3 came in so a bit jaded. Done my invigilating so the rest of the day is mine.

    I'm waiting for a parcel but need to see if our crazy post lady has left it with a neighbour - she doesn't leave cards.

    Going to do a meal plan and shopping list for when I have the parcel and hoping to do the family room/study and bathroom.

    At some point I'll find my list.

    I know SSL, its really annoying when they try and mislead people like that. However you were right the man in my avatar, Richie Sambora wasnt there. He was in rehab following his divorce and the death of his father.

    Quote of the day is quite profound:

  • Ok please can someone shout at me?! I joined this thread yesterday and need a kick to get myself sorted!

    My plan for last night was (I have updated what I actually did in pink!)

    Dinner (going for a chinese, tut tut I know!) Made dinner
    Shopping (got to go get two fathers day pressies and a present for my Godsons 5th birthday) Bought myself more than I bought anyone else...opps
    Clean (now Im officially 'signed up' got to tackle at least level 1) Only productive thing I managed was putting WM on which is more than I usually do!
    Bake (that in itself is hilarious, Im a domesticated disaster! Going to try hobnobs! Least if I poison hubby it will be one less person to clean up after! lol) Yeah this kinda didnt happen either!

    Seriously Im a disaster! I need a kick to get me going and someone to keep shouting at me everytime I stop! I work full time and am up at 5.45 in the mornings, usually its around 6 before Im home at night and just crash on the sofa. Need to get up and get motivated though!

    Come on Im waiting for you to shout at me! SHOUT SHOUT SHOUT!
