I really should get these t-shirts sorted.

I have ironphobia.  I'm sure there must be a syndrome associated with this

Thanks for your kind wishes everyone. It's difficult trying to keep up with this thread! Been working today and just had chance to look at everyone's posts. Started raining heavily here after a lovely day - must be cos my daughter put some washing out for me!!

Had some good news today - my daughter has been given a place at the ONLY school she wanted to go to - SOOOO relieved - one less thing to worry about!

...now then Universe, please magic me some money tomorrow!! Money Mouth

I think the best thing with this thread is not to worry too much about keeping up with it.  I know I can be so random, and avoidance (in this case ironing on transfers to scout t-shirts) set me off.

Jacs, I'm so pleased for your daughter - and you.  As you say, one thing crossed off the list.

Thanks sparklinglime - feel I should be commenting on other people's posts as they've kindly commented on mine....

Sitting here having a glass of left over fizzy wine that some friends brought over at lunchtime! Was nice to see them but yesterday and today have been so chaotic that it was difficult too. Anyway, done now...glug!! Smile

Great news Jacs.

LRH go onto Your Profile, then click the Edit tab, the first section of Edit will come up (Your Account) Next to the Your Account tab is the About You tab, click that. First thing on that section is your DoppelMe key. Put the right key in (from the Doppel site) then click Save at the bottom of the page. Tip: don't copy and paste the key, put it in manually as otherwise it can get corrupted by other bits of text Smile

Like Sparkling says, don't worry about responding to posts. It's always nice to see you here. Really pleased for your daughter with the school. You see, things are looking good already

I can't drink red wine for some reason - well I can, but it gives me a headache...

 

 

I think Murray has won - now had I watched, he'd have lost...

I would have joined you jacs, but red wine gives me a headache, plus it's a school night of course (shame)

You're busy Sparkling, the woman with many talents. She can iron, watch tennis, and write on One Space. PERFICK. Laughing

Am trying to avoid the dishes, but really should put my hands in a bowl of fairy. Am humming the song to that advert. What are the words, I know it ends in 'mild green fairy liquid'.

Hands that do dishes..........

I have printed off the iron on transfer thingies for scouty t-shirts....

Oldest and daughter only had to show me once how to change the drawings (with writing) to mirror image! I'm such a genius...

Good morning and lots of lively chat Smile

I am wondering if you see different things on your own profile from what I can see as an Administrator and therefore that is why my instructions don't match what you see, they certainly match what I can see.

I will send a private email to LRH and PQ and if you reply with your Doppel key I will edit it in.

What is everyone up to today? Eldest keeps giving me Andy Murray bulletins (unwanted as I do not like him.....Andy M that is!) Youngest is sleeping like Rip Van Winkle after his silly night on Tuesday. I had a serious talk with him yesterday and we have agreed some guidelines. If not at work the next day, can stay out as long as he wants. If at work, must be home by midnight but is allowed one late work night per week (either staying out late or sleeping at friend's house). We will see how he gets on with that.

Friend is coming round for a meal tomorrow night so am trying to plan a nice meal (and have been told by eldest that I can't include whipped cream on the menu because it makes him ill)

Morning all...off to work in a bit...doing the late today...

* Random*..talking of washing up liquid...don't ever get Homebase cheap, value stuff...it is rubbish...you have to use loads just to get a few suds, so a very false economy...Aldi on the other hand is much better....

At least at the mo there is a bit of sunshine outside...wonder how long it will last?

See you all later, and hope you have a good day! xx

Hello, long time since ive been on here. I wont be coming back under this name, if at all. (too complicated) I wanted to fill in some gaps as I went quiet suddenly.

Here goes- Im no longer a mother as ALL of my chldren have cut contact with me and Im so confused as to why.

Today I sign my son over to his new parents even though I dont agree with their reasons behind it. (new parents are his bioilogical dad and his new bride from thialand).

Iv left my job through stress and lack of progression within it.

House still not sold and joint owner saying he chooses to stop paying it and it will be repossessed and i lose my thousands and thousands i put in.

Anyway, i sincerely hope that you all are well and happy.

Lots of kind thoughts.x
