I'm knackered too! What's with some words, being underlined or in green?

I've been a busy bee today, pulled furniture out and cleaned from underneath, found a whole herd of pistacio shells... courtesey of hubs Surprised we haven't had mice.

Veggie, hope you're on the mend luv

Cat, sorry to hear you're knackered with work, the other job sounds nicer, especially with a sign on bonus.

Hi CG... talk at the weekend?

I think hubs and I are going to wander around the local Oktoberfest tomorrow, he can drink some beer and I'll enjoy the craft stalls... it's supposed to be heavenly out, summer weather, HOT!

See you over the weekend

So I carbloaded for the half last night, but I did it on beer, I don't really think that was supposed to be the plan, but it was a warm night at Fenway, very hard to resist.

Also skipped my morning workout today, but I'm not real concerned about that.

Feel better Veggie.

My cable is not working, I've decided it's kind of scary how much I have the TV on, now that I can't use it. Not the best timing with playoff baseball but they are coming on Tuesday.

I think I may go to the beach today, if it's this hot tomorrow I'll this run will not be fun.

Hi Everyone

Well, i've been a right lazy today its nearly 4 and i'm still in my nighty had a lie in until 6AM think that was due to the volume of Bud I had last night I think i'll apply for that other job as they pay travel time as well I saw another one today for an assistant in a wine (homebrew) store working tues through friday so I would'nt mind that either same wage as i'm getting now only I won't have to get up so early I'll feel rotten handing in my notice already because they are really nice girls and I like working with them I'm a really eejit (as Michele would say ) to myself in that respect because i'm dead loyal and will keep doing something out of loyalty rather than trying to do better for myself I was talking to Val about medical and she told me not to get any benefits that I don't need because nearly all of my wage will go in contributions she said she'd made the mistake of doing that and it took them months to rectify it she told the boss that she'd have to leave if they did'nt sort it out soon because she was working for practically nothing and the boss said "so leave then" I can't believe he said that because they can't get staff hubby said " *uck them!! they don't sound like they care about their staff so why worry about quitting" he's right I suppose but i'm soft I suppose i'd better have a shower and do something Have a Great Weekend

I'm here, not really doing too much. Spending plenty of money though! I'm off out shopping again today and visiting a friend with a 3-month-old

Well done RSG - that's faster than my first half mara, by 10 minutes (I think....) And we just did the GNR in 3:16

I am looking forward to carb-loading for my marathon!

I'm off to the gym tonight since I seem to be overwhelmed with super-crafty personal projects that I need to do at work!

Thanks Ladies

The weather was absolutely perfect, cool, cloudy and then sort of misty. The run out was hilly, but back was almost all downhill. It was right by my apartment so I'm very familiar with all of the roads (hills etc) which helped.

After I had a huge cheeseburger fries and an ice cream. Then had a few beers and just for kicks I jumped on the scale today and it was nice and low. Maybe I'll run another one now

Oh well Red Sox won, rainy day off so I'm about to pop in the movie Knocked Up before I go run errands.

Oh good Frus is here I thought she'd disappeared. I may be too miserable to post but everyone else most continue to do so.

Just rung the docs and computers down again so no scan results (they were down last week when I last checked on pcos scan results). I can't be bothered going to the docs and handing in discharge letter from hospital it too far.

Good morning all. Anyone want a dulux dog? I decided to sweep and clean the floors this morning (don't get me wrong it does happen regularly). I've swept up enough fur today to make another dog! And I've still got one room to do, might be able to make yet another dog after I've done that. Best get it done and then go do some exercise. Hope your all having a good day.

Aawwwww Poor Doggy my brother had one of them once so I know what you're going through

Weekend again and its beautiful oooh a woodpecker just landed on my deck and he's looking in my window at me I just waved at him because sometimes birds fly into the window and knock themselves out or even kill themselves poor things. They think that they can fly through when the blinds are open and they can see sky on the other side

Just making Roast Beef dinner then i'm off to drink some cold ones

Have a great weekend everyone
