Coffee Room

Hi all

Sorry some of you still having bad nights there. Karen E and coco not having things too good just now I know. But hey E he did the washing up at least. You take care until you can get back on your meds.

Babara, sorry love, how did I think you were coco? I really was in a fog yesterday. At least no work today and yes we have sun here so I hope you are all out if you feel able to soak a little of it up. I am just trying to keep busy today so may tackle the weed moutain in a minute, or maybe not.

Coco hope you are coping after your eventful day and that your daughter is on the mend from the scalds now?

Karen hope you can fit a snooze in today 2 hours sleep is not good at all love. Is the back still bad? I know there are always worries of some sort for you so hang in there.

EEK I've just seen the date Friday the 13th so take care out there and thanks for the support yesterday. Was so appreciated.
love and hugs (((( ))))

Hi Barbara, think it really is you this time. Glad you got the seeds done and have some help with the clearing up. xx

Afternoon all

Barbara, good on you getting the planting done. And make sure you get your GD to help clear up, that soil gets everywhere doesn't it.

Chris, glad to see you on, have you decided to tackle the garden or not. I must get some new plants this year, couldn't last as had my hip done may last year. Cant believe, nearly a year ago. Mark you I will have to get the girls to help me tidy the back yard first. Chris, when you do come down to see your sis, I shall get you both to come round mine and you can see for yourself what a tiny back yard we have. I spose it's better than nothing.

My youngest, Kim brought a drink down from her room, and nearly from the top she dropped the glass of milk shake, what a state it was, I dont think she left one wall untouched. I did most yesterday, and Hayley finished of today. Poor girl she was so upset.

Hope you are all enjoyingthe weater, they did say down here rain, but nothing yet so fingers crossed.

See you all later.

Hi Karen

Still trying to find the motivation but it does look nice out there. Oh poor Kim and milk too, not a good idea. I tend to hurl cups of tea up the wall on my way up stairs when I am stupid enough to try it and trip up. And guess where I usually have clean washing, yep on an airer at the top of my stairs and in the direct line of fire. hey ho.

We will catch up next visit fingers crossed though am not sure when yet. Goodness your hip nearly a year ago, where did that year go? Take care, will try and peak in later.
love

oh your poor daughter dropping her milk. My Son spilt a few coco pop things on the stairs the other day and then had a crisis 'why me?' sort of thing and I had to explain accidents do happen and just slow down a bit, we all do these things!

It is difficult to clear up though!

The shelving unit is almost done. OH started well but has had a bad week so the last of it took soooooo long.It just needs a few doors and one end unit to finish it off now!

I haven't seen cstars about! Are you back at work now?

Oh and about time I thanked Tony for all his hard work setting this up. Sorry it has taken me so long....it has been a funny week!

Hi Karen Elizabeth and chris
Elizabeth I was wondering about Christine...hope shes ok..and how it that cough...
Karen..your poor daughter ....and you having to clean it up...I could do with swapping houses then we wouldn't have to do the garden..I did all the gardening..but now it is a bit of a mess
Chris..I know what you mean about motivation...I used to have it in bucket loads....anyone like ironing...
Shall I tell you the worse thing I ever spilt....now dont judge me I am not a violent person....but we had only been married a couple of years..and we had a massive row..and I throw a bottle of tomato sauce..not at him...well not really...anyway the top came off....it looked like someone had been murdered
Oh Im off before I tell any more secrets :oops

Hi all

This is a quicky. I keep falling asleep to the girls amusement so I am going to lay down for a while. Shall read back later when my brain decides to work at a normal pace.

karen xx

Just popping in to say goodnight...Karen hope you enjoyed your nap....and hopefully everyone will sleep wellish see you all tomorrow
Night xxxx

Morning all, i hope everyone managed some sleep and are ok today, i will put the kettle on and set up breakfast for all who follow , i can barely move today so you will find me just pottering around very slowly today. have a good day what ever your up to. i have a mountain of washing and housework to do, i will be enlisting the kids help (a lot of the mess is theres). luv to you all xxxxxxxxxx

Morning to everyone

Coco, you make sure you rest as much as you can. And yes, get the kids to do it. You are so right, the kids are the ones that leave a mess behind themselves so they can clear it up. Just relax, you've had a lot go on the last couple of days or so.

Hope everyone else has a good relaxing day ahead of them. I'm just starting to get the youngests ones uniform all ready. Back to school for her on monday to her dismay. But still not Hayley.

Shall speak to you all later hopefully.

karen xx

Hi E,

How are you this morning. I do so feel for you not being able to take your meds at the mo. Hope you got a decent night last night.

karen xx

I slept well but was late to sleep. The phone woke me up staggered to the loo with jelly legs and a child stole my warm space in bed! so got up turned on lappy started breakfast, she came and stole my laptop!

Got on facebook and had a snotty message from a guy I bought a book off. Haven't been able to finish the last couple of chapters since January-you know how it is-and he was really sarcy. I paid £14 for the book and I will read it when able!!!!!! I wasn't amused by his tone at all. He knows sod all about my life and he wants me to give feed back so he should be a bit more thankful I bought his book.

Rant over.

Go carefully today PD. Hope everyone else is okay.

E x

alice xx

Sorry been trying to reply here for a bit and it woudn't let me, Just realised I wasn't logged on! It's going to be one of those days

Hi Barbara

No, Hayley wont be back at school on monday. Her councellor and Pyschiatrist have contacted the deputy head with some options before the easter break with no reply to date. So tey will be ringing again once they are back. The school has refused two options so far and apparently they cant refuse all. So, shall let you know how things pan out. I was motivated until I was benting over getting the washing out of the machine and I felt a strnage feeling in the new hip and heard metal rub against metal. So satdown, feeling a bit scared at the mo.

karen xx

sorry I missed you on fb Karen. I had my page up but had a PM to answer on AC so wasn't paying attention. I have answered now.

If I was you i'd mention it to GP and he may send you for an xray to check. if you are not in pain just take a deep breath and take it easy. It must be frightening hope you feel okay?

I spoke to Christine yesterday. She is still busy sorting out her emails!

I have to log off now.

E x

Chris I hope you didnt get too wet doing the shopping...tis dry here today...but very cold..we have just been for some shopping and you should see the young girls and boys come to that in little vest tops...shivering away..I know what you mean about logging on..I keep forgetting...so I copy and paste...
Karen Im glad Hayley wont be going back to that school...they have had enough time to think things over...you put your foot down when you ring um
Elizabeth...I have found all the uniforms....now I have to do some mending...I am always behind... you would think they where my kids....suppose its keeps me young...
Coco hope you are getting some rest...
I have been and bought some outdoor lights for my back garden....I hve a few now..they are all solar powered so know wires...the ones I have bought are a string of butterflies...so I will string them around my tree....my OH says its getting like Blackpool illuminations.....
Will see you all later..oh has anyone had a bet on the national ...I have shackalacaboombang...I think thats what it is called

Hi all

I must admit. It has been a lovely day here today with sunshine, I even got my washing out. And I have just had a bath to warm myself up. It's always colder in doors than out.

Coco, hope you have been relaxing. E, hope you didnt mind. Chris, dont worry about me.

Can you all answer this, why do kids always NEED this NEED that. Even when they know moneys are stretched.
Give me strength.

Hopefully see you all later, I keep missing you all.


karen xx

Karen ...your hip sounding like metal on metal...uur I hope you havent done yourself a mischief...yeah kids always want...I let the girls do jobs for there pocket money and if they want something they have to save for it...there daddy and mummy top it up for them but they still have to do jobs...the eldest one isn't keen at all but the youngest one will do anything for money...
I didnt win the national...think it came in 5th..oh well..those poor horses that they have put down...its about time the jumps were made smaller..
Hope everyone is okish....I will see you later xxx

Hi Barbara

Yes it frightened me I can tell you. So all this afternoon I really been lazy and it's just the normal pain I get now and te sore scar. Maybe it was just telling me to slow down. If it continues I will be seeing my doctor.

Yes, our to get money but they still have a damn good moan. They really do think we are made of money dont they.

Hope everyones ok, haven't seen anyone, well, been on the same time as anyone today. Aending hugs and caring thoughts to all of you.


karen xx

Hi Karen...you have just posted the 200th post in the coffee shop....I do hope your hip wont cause you any more pain...I dread having mine done....and doing something I shouldn't do...
Hope everyone is doing okish
Sending you all hugs to keep you going (((((())))
And I will see you tomorrow...sleep well..night xxx

Evening all

Guess I have just logged on as you are all off to bed, but phew Karen, good to see you. Do hope you take it easy just now and don't have any more frights. Do see the doc if you can lovey. I know the scar has been bothering you for a bit.

Hi Barbara, I'm not a fan of the National but did catch the end how close was that, and two horses put down seems so tragic all in the name of sport. I know they accept all that, the horses love to run and that it is the kindest thing but so sad all the same.

Not done much at all today cept a bit of shopping but am not going to beat myself up over it.
Hope Coco, E and Christine are hanging in there and resting up.
Have a good day tomorrow if you can and lets hope it isn't quite so wet out there.
take care guys
love and hugs
alice xx
