Thanks for reminding me Red! Shock

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 17/06/2018 11:35

I looked up what DS2 wanted to buy DH online, and just dashed out and bought a card and mug. Phew!

Had chicken and bacon risotto for lunch, went to the park, had ice cream and logged another hour for the Disney 24 hour challenge, had sweet and sour chicken for supper, DS2 will go to bed at 7, early for DD going to Butlins tomorrow. 😋🍗🍦🍗👙🐳🐋🐟🐠🐡🐙🐚🐬🏊🏄

Yes, it's coming round in the next day or so, Sprouts!

Our two were asleep just after 6.30, thank god.

They've helped us harvest our early potatoes today. We got a good few kg, though they're bloody expensive per kg this year as we had to buy more bags. They'll get cheaper from next year!

I've made chilli jam today too. Only 40% homegrown chillies, but could be worse!

Hello everyone.

Have told DP that I've been making lists for Christmas. He was not impressed until I mentioned about the things that would be great ideas for presents and that these things are things that the kids actually need.

I currently have some bellend setting off fireworks for the second night running.

Why? Just why? What's the bloody point?

Redgreen, the look lovely. Hope he enjoyed them.

I'm just very fed up with everything at the moment. I'm living with a constant low level of stress/annoyance and it's always due to other peoples lack of consideration for anyone else other than themselves. I swear it's got worse over the past 10 years or so. No-one seems to give a shit about how their actions affect other people. Its depressing and I'm desperate to move because of it.

To counter this, I'm still list making for the hampers, I'm going to try to make a different jar of something every weekend from November-ish. I've found a place that sells the baskets and gubbins, ebay has loads of jars going cheap and it's giving me something else to focus on other than people and uni stuff.

I'm also re-decorating the house one room at a time with the aim to get it done before my placement starts in September. The living room is done. Kitchen next. Replace door, paint walls and ceiling, re-gloss cupboards, finish pantry. Maybe replace the second door that leads to backdoor?

Thread title suggestion...

Halfway there. Only 6 months to go with thread number 4.

(as it's very nearly July)

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 17/06/2018 20:15

DD's going to bed at 8.30. 😴

Mrsmadevans · 17/06/2018 20:37

Evening all Grin
Had a busy day again, parents then home for lunch then shopio then back up to have a father's day meet with the family for my Dad. Just finished tea and relax!
DH is loving the footie bless him.
Fluffy l don't know how you do it , well done on the chilli jam it looks delish!
Giggage WOW just WOW!! Have a whiff mun Grin
Perfect hope DD has a great time at Butlins bless her
Better go do dishes have a great evening all Smile

NoWordForFluffy · 17/06/2018 20:42

Giggage, it's been Eid, hasn't it? Could fireworks be for that?

Mrs, I've had my dinner standing up in the kitchen twice this week so I can get other stuff done!

Sounds like you've had a good day. 😁

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 17/06/2018 21:09

I'm sure DD will have a lovely time, thanks Mrs, even with a strained knee ligament. My mind's been put at rest on that score, they have an on-site doctor, all the instructors are medically trained and all the teachers are first aiders. 😀

I've been in bed since 8.45. 😴

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 18/06/2018 05:18

Morning! Drinking coffee and watching BBC world news. 😋Brew

Redgreencoverplant · 18/06/2018 07:25

Morning. DS had D&V in the night bless him :( Anyone know whether a handwash only toy will survive a delicates wash?

NoWordForFluffy · 18/06/2018 07:36

Yeah, it should do, bless him. Do you have a laundry net thing which you can put it in for some extra protection?

Mrsmadevans · 18/06/2018 09:05

Morning all Smile
Going for a a naice walk this morn and looking for a new car, am looking at a Hyundai , Kia sportage, Honda Crv or something like that Grin a Quashqai or a VW Tiguan. I want something not too big but with a bit of a higher seat to make it easier to get in and out of.

TheWoollybacksWife · 18/06/2018 09:18

I'm off to look at new cars too MrsMad. Probably a Polo for me as we don't need a 7 seater any more.
