Thursday

Well here I am back at Michaels waiting for that b****** parcel. It had better turn up today! Hope yours arrives as well Andrea.

PS Don't think I've ever been on this early before!

It's going to be a long wait - forgot to bring coffee with me and Michael hasn't got any as he doesn't drink it.

Good morning Sue no coffee. We find that when we go to Ian & Ruths, Ruth doesn't drink tea or coffee and Ian only drinks decaffeinated tea and they are very often out of milk too Didnt get to bed until nearly 1.30 last night. Sally didn't leave work until 8.30 and by the time she had got home, packed and sorted out the rabbits to bring to me, it was gone 10.00. Then she had to eat her dinner, print out all the booking forms for their accommodation in Jordan, borrow Martins camera and had to charge up the battery. She was getting up at 6.30 so I set my alarm in case she hadn't as her friend was picking her up at 7.00 to drive to Gatwick. I got up at 6.30 and I had lost her, I went all over the house and back into her bedroom in case she was buried under the duvet and I had missed her but she was nowhere to be seen. Looked out the front of the house and her car had gone. When she had been going through all the forms last night she realised that she needed the paper part of her driving licence to hire the car so she got up at 6.00 and drove home to get it She is a nightmare Somehow she managed to get back, have a shower and was only 5 minutes late

Hope your parcel turns up soon so you can get home and have your coffee Hugs to all those who need one today - hope you all have a good day.

Sue and Jacky - hope your day gets better after the rough start. Hope everyone else has a good one.

Grey and cold here today but I'll walk up to get my prescription later. May try to make some cards today. After the elegant ladies i'm now on to poinsettias. will hopefully post pix later in my gallery.

Great to see the miners all released - what an achievement.

Still here and cold now! Don't want to turn on his fan heater unless I'm really desperate as he has an electric meter and I don't want it to run out!

Morning ladies.... I am worn out reading all of what everyone has been up to!!
Thought for a minute Jacky you were looking for the rabbits in the duvet They are house rabbits arent they??? I do think Cookie would have made a good house rabbit, I still miss him, and would love another one, but dont think we will have any more.
I have had a busy morning, went down to mums ... she was sat there in her coat, she was cold. The heating had tripped off, so I phoned the council and they have just been to sort it out. They have been 'sorting' it out for the past year. Fingers crossed it will be on in the morning!
Mum's gardener turned up this morning, so everywhere is looking reasonably neat and tidy.
The weather is a bit dull this morning, but it could brighten up.

Lexie... I am thinking about you this morning, sending some more hugs and fingers crossed for you.

Have a lovely day ... will pop back later.... keeping my hands busy on the farm.... you know what its like

Sue... by the time you get home, you will be hungry, thirsty and cold!!! Hope your man turns up soon.

Thank you for friending me on Farmville... dont know why, but your name isnt at the bottom where all my other friends are hmmmmm strange!

Funny that. You appeared at the bottom then disappeared then came back!

Shame Sue , no coffee no heat , hope the delivery turns up sooon .... yep what are our kids like ..... I blame the parents ... my Rupert is terribly disorganised and last minute ....just like his mother ! Dollie is well she just Dollie and obviusly like her father !
Hope they sort out your mums heating Karen !
Phew ! will tell you how I got at Drs ..... but Iam feeling relieved !

Karen, the rabbits are outside ones not house rabbits - can you imagine Molly running round after 2 rabbits and as for Callie

Lexie, I brought my children up to be very good and organised so that they wouldn't be like me it didn't work When Ian was a baby we always put things away together and in it's proper place. He wouldn't get more toys out until he had put away what he was playing with so it didnt get muddled up and everyone thought he was soooo good Then he grew up he is so untidy. Sally was good until she was at secondary school and into clothes and they all got thrown on the floor. Now she lives with Lizzie who is OCD and everything has a correct place - she has plates & dishes in all pastel shades and they have to be stacked in the right order. In her cupboard she has boxes marked tall things etc. and Sally is so tidy when she is around but while she is in Jordan things get a bit disorganised. Fortunately Lizzie comes back periodically and loves tidying it all up again They get on sooo well Sally is also late for everything so I was actually impressed she was ready by 7.05 this morning

I am cold and my heating came on this morning, think I might turn the thermostat up a little - hope you haven't long to wait Sue I added a friend as a neighbour and she didn't appear for a couple of days, thought she didnt want me

I'm bored and wanna go home!

Oh dear Sue... something tells me he isnt going to turn up.

A bit like the hospital transport for Keith. He was supposed to go to hospital this afty for an appointment at 3.20... 3.00 the transport still hadnt turned up. When he phoned the Clinic, apparently they had cancelled and not thought to let us know! How silly of us, we should know these things!!

Oh dear, Tina has chickenpox (SCD) can't get enough dancing at the moment - it really lifts my spirits. Been watching the YouTube videos from DWTS. Looking forward to tomorrow nights programme

For all you dancing fans - here are some quick previews http://www.theblueroom.me.uk/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29548

Still waiting! But delivery slot is 7 till 7!

That's awful making you wait in for 12 hours. When does Michael get home - hope you have managed to get a drink, go and ask the neighbours

He gets in about 7.15. That's the trouble he works the same hours 7 till 7 as their delivery hours and they don't deliver Saturdays - which is stupid! I have had drinks Jacky just no coffee. Think his neighbours are all out as well and don't think shops underneath would appreciate me begging for coffee.

Mine finally turned up Sue but had parts missing from it Got somebody coming out Saturday to sort it all out hopefully. Did yours arrive ? Had a good session at aerobics.
