That more than Yuk tortoise. Thats bad for them to leave their blood. From the few bits I have read, it sounds like you have had one of those day and its not going to end to quick either.
Big Hugs to you {{{{{{ tortoise }}}}}}

P.S you have a chippy that is open on Mondays?

Lucky you!!

jessicaandrebeccasmummy · 16/10/2006 17:44

Good on you tortoise!

Our local chippy isnt open on a monday, but if we go to the nicer one a bit further away it is open and it is lovely!

Monday is usually chippy night, but we had pie and mash instead.

Is it nearly 7pm yet?! Want these girls in bed tonight - i feel like a night chilling out relaxing!!!

TortUREoiseChamber · 16/10/2006 18:13

No chippy not open but chinese is and that does chips etc too. Not my fav place but its ok when desperate!
lol @ JARM. They have not been up long!
Hope xp2 is ok HN.

theHAUNTEDhazelnut · 16/10/2006 18:39

Our chippy here is on from Tuesday to Saturday, I suppose if I went in to Bath there would be something open, but its a long way to go for chips. We had Chicken pie, oven chips and mixed veg tonight. all had empty plates tonight, so DC had a pud, mini pots of rice pudding.

I don't know about xp2 tortoise. the police just said they know where he is and thats its a hospital/home and that he cant have been coming here or beating up xp1. I don't know what part of the country he is in or what the hospital/home is. I know in my heart of hearts its nothing to do with drugs. He has always hated them and said that he took too many GP ones to take any more.

I don't know if I will find out or not. I am hoping hes ok. just hoping now that xp1 gets whats coming to him and without using the DSs or me, or even making our life's any worse. Wait and see I suppose.

TortUREoiseChamber · 16/10/2006 19:39

DD's in bed and kitchen floor scrubbed on hands and knees! Had lots of patches of dry glue to remove.Looks clean now. I can see DD2 doing alot of tripping over because the kitchen floor is now higher than the hall and bathroom! There is now A tile height lip between bathroom and kitchen thats she is bound to trip over!! I will need to get sealent to go round bottom of loo as there is a small gap around it where the tiles now are,otherwise it will end up with kids wee going under the tiles!

TortUREoiseChamber · 16/10/2006 19:56

Grrrrrr!!
They have lost the foot of my over the loo bathroom shelf thingy! They had put it on its side on the path near the grass.Now i can't put it back or put all the stuff back.
Im going to have to search the garden tomorrow.

theHAUNTEDhazelnut · 16/10/2006 20:05

My DC are in bed now too tortoise. DS1 has been very loud tonight. Even DS2 told him not to shout.
Its a shame they could not have done a better job for you in the kitchen/bathroom. I had my kitchen done just over a year ago now and when they finished doing it, I found it so slippery as they polished it. It looked great, but you needed more than just slippers on or you could slide from 1 end of the kitchen to the other

I off to have a long hot bath. Hoping that DC stay sleeping while I am in there.

theHAUNTEDhazelnut · 16/10/2006 20:11

Sounds like you could have done a better joy yourself tortoise.

And they want to call themselves workmen!

TortUREoiseChamber · 16/10/2006 20:53

Bathroom floor scrubbed! And even did the skirting boards while i was on my hands and knees!
I think I will have a rest!
Bit of a tortoise day on FLY thread!! Where has everyone else been?? lol

QueenQuootieSpookypieBee · 16/10/2006 21:00

Bathroom is looking better - floor got abut f*cked up as the walls are wonky... just need to do a second coat of gloss to cover the multi-coloured squares they painted on the door! Bought new mirror etc. tonight, but DH will put it up tomorrow. Then ill have photos! Nothing much else new here... ill shuffle through the posts if my comp. lasts!

TortUREoiseChamber · 16/10/2006 21:03

sahmtotwo No I haven't.I didn't see the thread.

QueenQuootieSpookypieBee · 16/10/2006 21:08

I only wear - foundation because pregnancy and teenage years have left my skin worse for wear... and far from trendy I bought a shade too dark and today I was orange, some eyeshadow thats scraped from the bottom of the pot, Mascara - because I look weird without it! Bronzer because I look weird totally orange, and vasaline or nivea on lips. Tres chic, eh?!

QueenQuootieSpookypieBee · 16/10/2006 21:10

someone give me a roundup of todays thread? Im going cross eyes theres so many posts!

theHAUNTEDhazelnut · 16/10/2006 21:12

Well done tortoise. You need a gold star!

I had my bath but got called out as sister phoned. She wanted to know if I could lend her some money I dont know where she think I would have money to lend her? I told if I had spare money then I would get a cleaner lol
I dont have to worry about cleaning my loo for a few days. Ds1 put all my new shampoo down it. I know it was DS1 as he was the only 1 who spent ages in the loo before bed time. I am now going to have to put a shelf up higher. I dont know where to start though. The loo still has bubbles in it now!
I have not had anymore emails from FLYlady. So they stopped as soon as I sent the 2 emails to stop them.
