Hello all you wonderful ladies

Thanks for all the hugs, I really needed them. DH has apologised in his own way so I think he knows he stepped over the line. Oh and I'm on a type of strike today. I'm not running myself into the ground anymore.

You've all done some fantastic lists this weekend btw

I've done
Made bed
Organised toy storage
Tidied front room of games
Tidied toys
Vacced downstairs
De sooted fire

and that's it.

DH is keeping an eye on DS so I get MN time!!!!!

HN Hi Everyone.

I think I have managed to stay online

I hope everyone are ok. We are at HN house.

I have been busy with house work in the evenings as I could not stay online for very long. Its something to do with the amount of users using the net here in the evenings.
I going to have some time on MN now if the Dc let me.And I should be putting the washing away. 3 full/over flowing baskets and a large pile on my bedroom floor. I hate putting cloths away.

Hope I will be here tonight.

tortoiseLikesItNiceAndSlow · 11/02/2007 14:55

Hi HN. Glad you got online! Who told you it was the amount of users? Surely there are masses of users worlwide so why would it affect you? Some homes have 2/3 comp on the go!

I have just put away a huge pile of clothes! Still more to do. Maybe later. Need a break for a bit.

taylormama · 11/02/2007 15:14

just caught up with the threads - PMSL at the fingers and it is gross and at luda's mince meat. Anyhoo - i am done with the spring clean!! Only thing left to do is take stuff to charity shop etc and make dinner.

DS been a bit unsettled today - think he is teething tho poor little man.

Will pop back later - having a well deserved sit down.

tortoiseLikesItNiceAndSlow · 11/02/2007 16:02

Welldone TM. You do deserve a rest.

We hve crazy cookies in the oven. Yummy!

HazelNuts · 11/02/2007 16:15

Hi Tort. Glad to be online, but the DC are not letting me spend much time looking. lol

Tiscali have said its down to the number of users. Peak times and all that. I think its more down to the upgrading they do. I read the other day that they are now going to have live TV coming down ur BB line. I wondered if that was something to do with it. The last time they did upgrades I was having problems with my computer. Although BT told me that my line could have the max of 8000kbps. Tiscali have said the max for me would only be 2000kbps at best at this time as I`m a long way away from the exchange Though they did say that some work was being done to make the speeds better. TBH I don't know who or what to believe.

Right I`m going to give the Dc an early bath.

grouchyoscar · 11/02/2007 16:39

Well I spent a happy hour zesting, squeezing and freezing a dozen sevillle oranges.

Oh why can you only get them in Jan/feb?

tortoiseLikesItNiceAndSlow · 11/02/2007 16:52

cookies look and smell yummy!
DD's asking for rice crispies for tea!!

HazelNuts · 11/02/2007 17:24

LOL @ tort`s DDs wanting rice crispies for tea. I had not better tell my DS1 or he will want breakie bits for tea aswell. Saves you having to cook tort.

Yummy cookies. try not to eat too many to night tort

We are having chicken cottage pie for tea. It will soon be ready. Though I dont fell that hungry.

Well done all who have had busy cleaning days today.

I feel that I have been lazy today as I have not done very much at all. I might put some away when I put DC to bed. though........... MN time would be better

tortoiseLikesItNiceAndSlow · 11/02/2007 17:42

At least if they have breakfast for tea i know they will eat it! Better than eating nothing i guess!
They had a cookie for pud. They are yummy as always. Don't know what to have for my tea yet.

HN Hope you enjoy yours.
Ive been lazy too apart from putting some washing away.

Jelley · 11/02/2007 18:45

I laft dp and dd1 in charrge of ds yesterday while I shopped, and I came back to find ds having weetabix for lunch. (DD feeding him).
Then the girls had cornflakes and weetabix, too.

We got lots of cleaning done, and i went a bit mad with the glitter glue . Just need to get ds to bed, and I will make biscuits.

HazelNuts · 11/02/2007 19:12

I love rice crispies and I have been known to eat a blow full in the middle of the night Could be a great Sunday tea. DS1 would want them just to have some more chocolate. Like you said tort, at least you know they will eat them

Tea here was ok. Dc loved it but I did not eat much, just don't feel hungry tonight for some reason.

I have now put some washing away I still have 2 very full baskets to do though

DD is in bed sleeping, DS2 is going soon followed shorty after by DS1. Kitchen is cleaned up and the dish washer is on.

I don't know how much longer I will be able to MN though as the speeds are getting slower Lots of people getting home and going gaming on their computers. Another thing that tiscali have said is part of the problems with speeds and not being online when wanted to be. I still have not yet been on the drawing site thingy that everyone are talking about.

So now we have 4 cats. So i've been abit side tracked but dp is back to work tommorow so i'm gonna have a good go.

Well done all those who got so much more done than me!!

Jelley · 11/02/2007 21:48

You weren't supposed to be doing anything FTS Don't feel bad

I've put another load in the washing machine, and made flapjacks.

Will do my nails before bed.

I've put some pics on my profile if anyone wants to take a look (I also went a bit mad with the glitter glue)
