Shortly, will be time for toast and then out for a walk, me thinks. Hope it stays dry :lol:.

This afternoon, a bit of housework (maybe :() and a dvd.

What is everyone else up to?? (Sorry for those of you at work - maternity leave is a great thing!!)

[arana negra]

Recovering from bad fall, on painkillers, ice pack two places, elevated hand and shoulder, blooming sore head where it connected HARD with wall also.

No bones were broken in the stunt ( could have some money on youv'e been framed I reckon)

BUT DON'T try this at home it HURTS :(

[golach]

Thinking ( just Thinking ) of washing the windows, having my second caffeine boost, may come to my senses soon [lol]

[Nibbler]

Oh Arana Negra

That is no so good :(. Wishing you a speedy recovery and



DONT DO THAT AGAIN!!


Seriously, get well soon. At least you can still type :lol:

[Nibbler]

Golach - it is such a shame you are down south. I was going to rope you in to coming round to do mine :lol:

Caffine boost - now thats something worth while :eek:

I'm off for a cuppa


Back soon

[porshiepoo]

Housework at the moment - love it!
Then an hour or so in the gym - lucky girl as I have my own!
Then I'm either going to finally get around to setting up this Wii and play on it or else I'm going to make some christmas cards. Decisions, decisions. :lol:

[Kevin Milkins]

I was just reading Arana Negra misfortunes and my wife tripped over the edge of the kithchen mat, ( fortunatly did not hurt herself ).
Hope you get well soon Arana Negra.
I have been boarding out my loft a bit at a time to create some storage space. Might do a bit more of that today

[the second coming]

chillin, sciving from looking after new bairn B and rascal bairn A. Composing a message regarding the Panda Liberation Organisation and Melancholy Mans infiltration into the upper ranks and finding their proposals to build lots of wind mills, coast to coast, seashore to highest peak. And beyond, including the first stratospheric wind farm to be grid connected to the National Grid Transmission lines and operated by little furry martians (funded by the Panda's of course). Only to find the thread has been closed. Drat!!

Dam those Panda's

Remember you heard it her first.

[rockchick]

Sitting at my desk working, with Caithness.org on in the background...will work a 12 hour day, then hopefully go for a run, make tea, eat said tea, and collapse in small heap to sleep for a few blessed hours before getting up and doing it again tomorrow.

[golach]

Coffee intake completed, Windows here I come, being hounded by Mrs G, and Wifie, I canna escape, even on the Org [lol]

[Billy Boy]

Nothing all day...........:D

[changilass]

Making a christmas stocking for the bairn, then starting an advent calendar for him.

Gonna be making fudge later thanks to alanaktie, saw the recipe and went out and bought condensed milk, what is it about being on a diet that encourages baking:lol:

[KCI]

I'm about to shut myself in the spare room again, trying to sort through all the junk!
I've made some progress now - I can see about half of the floor! :lol:

I was thinking the same thing just the other day!
I've been telling Nibbler for weeks now, that I'm clearing out the spare room, and I can't believe I'm still doing it!
I blame my hubby - it seems to be all his junk! :roll:

[changilass]

Boared the loft out ,you know it makes sense.lol:lol:


I wanted to do that but have horizontal supports at about waist height, so not worth the trouble.

[KCI]

Boared the loft out ,you know it makes sense.lol:lol:


This spare bedroom is actually in the loft, Kevin!
We did a loft conversion, and that's why all the junk ended up in the spare room! :eek:

[Nibbler]

You lot are putting me to shame. Daughter feel asleep during Little Einsteins so I am still here :lol:

I have done nothing yet - not even the toast. Got a cuppa though Golach

Was thinking Porshiepoo, when your done, forget the gym and come round mine. I can give you a work out here too

Glad your wife didn't hurt herself Kevin.

The second coming - there is some panda programme on Sky if your having withdrawal symptoms

Rockchick - I am just knackered reading your post. You are some woman for doing that! I suppose I do a 12 hour shift but I certainly dont go for a run afterwards (I do that during my shift!!)

Billy Boy - me is jealous :mad:

Changilass - you are so organised. Christmas is coming just too quick for my liking and daughter turns one just before it so it will be an interesting one this year. Looking forward to it. Condensed milk - man, I used to love opening a can and drinking it straight out of it. Ohh, bliss

KCI - you should be done of that by now. What you been up to???

Thanks for all your replies. I have really enjoyed the banter on this one.

Cheers :)

P.S. Golach - you done that windows yet???

[KCI]

I seem to be so organised in the morning, when I first get up, then it all goes wrong!
I'm no use at not working - too much spare time for me, I think!
I sit at this computer most of the day, posting replies on threads, and doing online Christmas shopping!
See - I'm still here! Haven't even made it into the spare room yet! :roll:

[Torvaig]

I'm sitting here huffing as my dog has just stolen a garlic baguette I had sitting ready to go into the oven! I do try to remember not to leave anything within his reach as he is a greedy little beggar but today my mind was elsewhere.

It's not that he was hungry as he had his breakfast and had also begged a biscuit off a certain shop in town where the ladies know him and where he can't pass the door without pulling me in for same!

Good job it was a twinpack.......:lol:

[porshiepoo]

All my lazy intentions for today so far have come to nothing.
Done the housework then went outside and was stacking blocks for OH (we're building a house) and have been moving wood and various other non-lazy activities.
Ah well, the blessed thought was there. Guess I'll have to wait till a rainy day before I can get on with the cards. :(

[cuddlepop]

Walk the dogs,feed the dogs,play with the dogs,walk the dogs,play with the dogs and soon feed the dogs ........

Arana Negra - aint you doing too much girly. You should still be in recovery.


Changilass and Balto - you pair are making ma mouth water with your fudge. Its been years since I made and I aint gonna start again now. (I just end up eating it all hence the name Nibbler :lol:.) As for millionaires shortbread - oh, dont go there!!!!!

My great plans yesterday for the housework never came off but there is a surprise. Tonight (if I dont get it done before then) I will be making cauliflower and cheese for the little one once she is tucked up in bed.

This afternoon, as little as possible will be done. Little one about to sleep so this is my escape onto the org.

[arana negra]

[quote=Nibbler;439728]Arana Negra - aint you doing too much girly. You should still be in recovery.quote]


ERRRRR yes I should, will get into trouble from husband also :lol: have slowed down to a standstill well sit still now with the Scally on my chair :)

[arana negra]

Started my day with visit to hospital, good news bad news and big bill ! After much man (well woman) handling of my now much more sore bits, my head injury is external and could take up to 21 days to be pain free. App made for tomorrow for MR on my shoulder and ordinary x-ray on my hand again, which is now encased in rigid plastic splint. I came home took my painkillers and went to bed. Pain is horrendous at the minute, trying to ignore it.

Thanks for good wishes :)

[changilass]

Arana Negra hope you heal soon and get out of pain.


Fudge update

Scraped the non set fudge off the grease proof paper and put back int eh pan to boil, beat the living daylights out of it an put in in a fresh tray.

Have to report that there is now no fudge left, it worked and it was yummy, hubby wants me to make more tomorrow.

It seems that the trick is in the beating, and I was in a serious beating mood yesterday.

[changilass]

Spent a rather nice evening in a beeg tent, with good food, drink, entertainment and best of all good company.

Came home with lots of baloons for the wee free man.

[Melancholy Man]

... taking my feet out of the pedals, bracing my legs and readying to preform a parachute jump out of the way of a careering van...

[wee sparkle]

I woke up with a sore head today, and so managed to convince my mum to let me stay off school :p hehehe, feeling better now though and will definately be back there tomorow. Its quite nice having the house all peaceful! Mind you though, my younger sister was ill too, so not exactly bliss.

[Nibbler]

I haven't done much myself today but I dont have a good reason like Balto. (By the way, best of luck when the time comes Balto.)

Yesterday, I was out at the horses and had a great time. Hadn't been out for over a month and I was really needing ma equine fix!!!

Saying that, I'm a bit sore eday (my own fault) but getting there.
