yes, but still.

Having said that DH has just gone to make me a cup of tea, so I suppose I can't be too disappointed.

I've had a rather good weekend and I have just one week before I've got a week off (woohoo). Its not going to be an easy week, but its just 5 days :)

ConfessionsOfaFlask · 03/04/2011 21:32

oh the whole week off you lucky girl now it's me Envy

DH and I are taking next Monday and Tuesday off so we have a 4 day weekend and time with the girls. In-Laws are coming to the rescue to help with childcare as we couldn't manage the whole week off.

Morning - well I can't say I'm looking forward to any day which starts with one member of staff crying (no,not because of me on this occasion, honest!) at their desk and the most optimistic member of staff I have saying its going to be a hard one.

I have 19 mins before my first meeting, to the bakery I shall go!

ConfessionsOfaFlask · 04/04/2011 09:41

Morning all !

That sucks-Mondays, are only bearable when we have sunshine like today.

Mental Day.

Im not too bad, was off work wed/thurs/fri last week, went back today but still in pain so saw GP and he signed me off for 2 weeks untill I see the consultant :( God knows how we are gonna financially cope but im trying not to worry...

Are they still making redundancies?

nenevomito · 04/04/2011 19:53

Evening everyone. I can't believe how much work I have on at the moment and I bloody well hate the light evenings as the DCs just don't want to go to sleep!!! Don't they know how tired I am? [little sods emoticon]. DH has gone out to do the shopping and I'm eating chocolate.

I just have to get everything ready before my week off or it will all go to hell in a hand basket.

nenevomito · 04/04/2011 21:07

ConfessionsOfaFlask · 04/04/2011 21:23

I've not had those chocolates. I have to admit that I could pass on most chocolates in favour of anything with nuts in.

MJ, I really feel your pain. I cried for weeks when I went back to work and even now its shit.

WinterLover · 05/04/2011 09:30

Morning Ladies :)

ConfessionsOfaFlask · 05/04/2011 09:57

Morning All- It's a shitty rainy day here but I don't mind it if I'm working!.

I cannot wait for my 4 days w-e and our night out on Saturday. We've been invited to a party, I'm so excited! You can tell I don't go out much these days...

DBD1 has been very good on the whole since the last incident- She has had no treats/sweets/friends over for over 10 days now and I think it's working. I guess sometime a bit of tough love goes a long way.

Hi all! Pegs - that's great news! Fingers crossed she keeps it up.

WinterLover · 05/04/2011 10:27

Pegs thats good, lets hope it continues

Well my selling spree has started...

nenevomito · 05/04/2011 11:25

Good morning to you. I am having a small, but perfectly formed, nervous breakdown at the shear volume of work I have to do before midday. I have been in work since 7.45 and am on the countdown.

Just popping in for a quick ARGH at you all. BH.
