Ruby, you know how to have a good time LOL.

Morning again

DH has imodium and decided to go to work . He wants two days next week off and has two sets of accounts his team need to finnish before then - so needs must.

I have more bedding in the wash and also the feather bed to do next - so I hoped the sun keeps on shinning, as it doesnt fit in the dryer.

I have finnished my morning routine and we are off to toddlers at 10am.

So I am feeling remarkably OK even bar the disturbed sleep.

Mad at your bad luck with illness lately, I really hope this is the last of it for you!

Ruby erm . . . halloween party at 8:30am?!?!? Have a good time

Halloween party at 8.30am?!

DD2 had to go to school dressed as a Roman today, as if I didn't have enough to do. We managed, and got there on time, with ds in the buggy with no shoes.

I've just go in, and dp is telling me about some taps for the new bath (nothing has been done for months as we have had no money), but the local MFI is closing and selling off cheap, so I have to walk to the other side of town and buy them with my credit card if they are ok....

Kaplumbagadort · 21/10/2008 10:37

Morning all.

TMH Hope DH is better soon. You really aren't doing well with bugs lately.
RR That is an early party. I bought a devil costume off Ebay last night ready for our holiday!
Greyskull Cake course sounds interesting. I love making cakes.
Lucysmam Hope you find some bargains in the charity shops. I found some Heelys for 99p last week. Hoping they sell on Ebay!

I have one job i must do today. Kitchen floor needs cleaning. There are muddy dog prints all over it! I need some sort of mat by the back door i think. Something to catch at least some of the wet and mud.

ludaloo · 21/10/2008 11:06

Hi, Morning Ladies

Mad sorry to hear your dh is ill too nightmare!

Rubes you are such a party animal! Halloween shinanigans at 8.30am! Have Fun!!

Greyskull Oooooh a cake course that sounds really good. I'd like that!

Lucy's Good luck in the shops...I like that idea! Might do the same when I next go to town.

Jas hope the taps are ok....what was the occassion at school? Its our harvest festival today but my two are at home with me....waiting (unpatiently) for their blisters to go

Well I had better get on with the house...the kids are all playing outside. We will go for a walk after lunch just for something to do really!

ludaloo · 21/10/2008 11:13

Oh sorry kaplum missed you there....
Have fun cleaning the kitchen floor....I think a door mat sounds like a good plan.
Hows the Ebaying going? My dh is fuming this morning....he has an ebay shop....4 years of positve feedback was nuked today by a woman who left negative feedback
She bought an item on the 13th....paid for it on the 16th and left negative feedback today to complain that she hadn't received the item!!! He even sent an email to say we were going away for the week as she hadn't paid for it before we had to leave on the 13th!!!
No contact from her or anything. DH is gutted/furious and has gone to work rather peed off!
Its a nightmare really...he had 100% positive up until today.

Kaplumbagadort · 21/10/2008 11:31

Hi Luda. Floor is done now. Ebaying is going okish. How annoying to get given a neg for no good reason. He should be able to contact Ebay and they can remove it if they agree it isn't fair feedback. Good luck with that.

I am feeling a bit light headed today. Because of my cold i expect.

grouchyoscar · 21/10/2008 12:26

Afternoon Ladies

Welcome back BJ Ruby and BWB We have the WII fit! I never thought of that, thanks!

So morning routines done, Ed to school, me to my Webster Stratton corse, Home, bring bins in, cuppa, swap drying for we washing, load TD and run and MN time.

It's the school book fair after lessons today. Ed's doing Footy training so I get to look without him spotting his xmas pressies . Like he doesn't have a book mountain! School book club pamphlet came round and it was 'Got', 'got' 'got'

DH is flashing me so I better see what he wants

scattyspice · 21/10/2008 12:31

Afternoon.

To do (after school/work):
zone cleaning
water plant
make phone calls
take ds swimming

BBl

Jas · 21/10/2008 12:36

Afternoon, all

I got the taps but still haven't even cleared up from breakfast

I did manage to get the washing on the line before I went out....it tis lovely and sunny now.

Yr 3 do "Roman day" at the dds school. They do quite alot of themed work, and special event days at their school, and it seem s to make learning more enjoyable.

The Wii says I'm 53 and unbalanced! Bless it

Kaplumbagadort · 21/10/2008 12:43

Don't suppose anyone has any devil red tights they don't want? (Adults!!) Wondering if i can get away with my red patent DMs with the dress! this is it. Went a bit over my planned bid price!

grouchyoscar · 21/10/2008 13:15

You have red patent DMs too!!!! Heh heh heh

They'll look fab with that and black fishnets

Kaplumbagadort · 21/10/2008 13:25

Fishnets? I don't think i could wear fish nets! I am not even sure i can wear the dress. Will have to hope it looks ok on. I love my DMs and want to buy more in various colours. But even on Ebay they aren't cheap.

BiancaCastafiore · 21/10/2008 13:34

Good afternoon

I have had a busy and productive morning doing lots of jobs and the house is looking much improved for it Still a fair bit to do till I'll feel satisfied but I can at least walk into rooms without recoiling in horror now.
I am having a sit down and some lunch now.
Dh is 40 today, he had to go to work without having had any presents this morning as the parcel I'd ordered hadn't arrived (it has now ) We are having a birthday tea later this afternoon I am looking forward to some cake.

TMH hope dh is better soon
Ruby Halloween party sounds like fun!
Jas well done on a Roman costume..I hate days like that! We have to come up with a musical themed costume each for dd and ds for Friday...I am uninspired - HELP!
Kaplum at that costume! I may be able to supply a mat for your kitchen - see me via MSN sometime..
Luda how are the kids? All better yet?
Lucysmam, Grouchy, Greyskull, Scatty, anybody else hello!

intravenouscoffee · 21/10/2008 13:46

Happy Birthday IC (And mr castafiore)

TheMadHouse · 21/10/2008 14:27

Happy Birthday IVC and Mr Bainca

I am back from hospital. I had a steriod injection into my right wrist - ouch

Hopefully it will work, then back in 6 weeks for one into the left.

Not supposed to do anything for two days - yeh right

Kap Love the dress and the DMs and agree with the tights.

sorry can not remember much else - back later

ludaloo · 21/10/2008 14:32

Bianca....oooohhh its today! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MR BIANCA

Kap I love the dress too...I agree...the boots would go a treat (scuse the pun)
I like the fish net tight idea too.

Has anyone read today's tip of the day? What a great idea! I'm going to try that.
We could do a MN Stocking Filler Swop Thread! I think it would save us loads!
