Am in the office full time for the next two weeks so am going to be a grumpy, tired person by the end of it!

No point in mentioning pony - a lovely day here, but due to be v. windy and rainy by the time I get back from work so will just be bringing in and shovelling sh!t
grin.gif


Hope you all have a good day.......
 
Morning, its a bit damp and mizzley here this morning but hopefully clearing.
Working all day but fingers crossed weathers fine later for a hack out with daughter.

Fingers crossed I get my new man today
grin.gif
 
Morning!
2 interviews today, bit nervous but fingers crossed.
I'm not going to accept the first job if I get it because I drove through to find it yesterday and it scared me half to death, so my sister is driving me so I have a practice for this afternoon.
Hope everyone has a good day.

Hi peeps!!

Scotmare - I with you on the moodyness when working in an office!!
Samstar - Hope the weather holds for you!
Rubysgold - Good luck for today!! Got fingers, toes, eyes crossed for you!!

Had a brill weekend!! Friday night meal was lovely!! Got very emotional, as mum and dad had a cake made with a piccy of me on there when I was 2 yrs old, and my best friend made me a hugh framed college (sp) of piccys of me and her over the years, and piccys of me and Sukari (my old horse) and my dog, and me and Horlicks... it was such a touching gift!!
Saturday, rode Horlicks who was a star (as normal!) and then Sunday took my OH out for breakfast...... which just so happened to be at Ingatestone Saddlery's cafe... so had a little mooch about in there too!!

All in all, a great weekend!!
Have a good day and speak soon!!
xx
 
Morning everyone!

Just discovered the dog has a lump on it's nose!! It wasn't there yesterday!!
shocked.gif
Looks like she'd scrapped it, or it's a fly bite. Going to keep an eye on it, as she is fine and doesn't mind you touching it. So, I'll have to get the first aid kit out and deal with that!!

Samstar - hope everything is ok and the new man arrives!!!

Good morning!

I am just about awake, and think I might have a go on the wii in a minute, haven't played on it for ages! Not got anything planned today other than rehearsal, which I forgot to go to last week so MUST go tonight. We're supposed to have a concert on October 3rd, although it has yet to be confirmed and I have a hunter trial that day so would really like to know.

Hope everything goes well for everyone!
 
Morning.

Off to my mums to put plants in her garden which she will no doubt mistake for weeds yet again and dig up.

My dad will be at a hospital appointment so I'll be able to talk without him interrupting continually.

Finally the going goo at puppy photos complaint I made yesterday here is my kitty up my OH's Trouser Leg

And just to beat Mr T and his puppy into second place this is my kitty 2 years ago when I got her from Cats Protection as a kitten. All together now aah goo goo!!

Just went to have a bath and tarantulas have taken up residence in there - took me 10 mins to catch them........

by 'catch' them, i presume you mean 'scream loudly, run round with hands in the air, throwing things at them until you realise you're giving them something to climb out of the bath with, then hose them down the plug, squirting down some very hot water/bleach just in case, before plugging the plug in'?

it must be the time of year, we've had an invasion of the biggest damn spiders i've ever seen. i swear i can HEAR them running on the wooden floors...

anyway...
Lippyx - what lovely bday pressies, and glad your meal was fab
RG - Good luck for today!!

my day so far has been spent sat by the phone... waiting for it to ring and tell me we've exchanged... WHY HAVEN'T WE EXCHANGED?!?

i'm going to SCREAM soon. could it take any longer?! we've set the completion date for the 17th so they had better hurry up.

Ah morning fellow Sweet FA'ers...... busy morning for me, up at crack of dawn, into town, raided bank account which has now been left in a very sorry state of affairs..... over to see his lordship king of gingers, back home to housework and some serious puppy cuddling!!!!
Later the agenda will be work, then finish early to take her royal higness Megan to a puppy party at the vets (beat that Flibble, they dont do that for cats!!!! LOL!!!)

And as for the hijacking of the thread with cute kitty pics I have one complaint - Mr T is my horses name - I happen to be VERY MUCH FEMALE!!!!!
smile.gif
 
Good grief, slinky!! Don't remind me, it's that time of year again! Clipcloppop, your strategy sounds similar to mine. I'm arachnophobic, and all my cats do is stare interestedly at them...I have a big long catcher-thingy which works ok, except when the b@ggers are so BIG that their legs get squished off at the edges, but then I have to go outside with it and ask random strangers to release them, because I'm too scared!

I'm horribly sore today from yesterday's somersault, but need to get my butt in gear...

Good luck Ruby!
 
Hi, I haven't been on here at all over the last week as I've been off work and I usually go on there, but had a great week despite having some sort of respiratory virus (me not my horse!). We went for a lesson on a cross country course for the first time ever and Belle jumped everything I asked her to, even the wall at the end which was also a drop fence, so proud of her, even though I know it was because her boyfriend was there! Went on the beach first time the same day as it was over the round from cross country course and she hated it (spooked at a wave!) but it was a good learning curve for her. Then we both had three days off due to me being ill, but then we went out for a lovely long hack with some friends yesterday and went over a fly over (that didn't go so good and ended up in hysterics in the middle of the road and I had to smack her
frown.gif
but then she behaved) and through some lovely woods, so that was a learning curve too but a good confidence giver for both of us. Hope you all have had a lovely morning so far. xx

Oh Whoops sorry MsT I cant help it. Pure Jealousy on my part apparently according to my OH if I had my way we would have a zoo!

Anyhow I was always going to have a Border Collie and call him Davy Dog when I packed in real work but unfortunatly we dont have the facilities and time so I have to sneak around other peoples puppies saying excuse me can I please cuddle your puppy!!

Mums plants are all in and she spent the whole morning shuffling around watching me plant them (she can only do 1 mph). She was really funny she went off to use the loo while I planted up in the front and I heard a strange rustling sound and looked up to spy her peeking out of the upstairs window!!

mad.gif

mad.gif


and my mum is coming to stay tonight... so i really should get some tidying up done. why do i tidy up for my MUM to visit? she's my mum. surely she loves me whether my house is a pit or not?
confused.gif


my hubby is all over the tv today. on the news is the story about the mum who murdered her daughters near cambridge. my hubby was the 'first on scene' and ended up standing at the front door all day to 'preserve the scene'... so all footage outside the house has his gormless little face in it. i just saw him on the itv news, and it helped with the pining... he's at work til 3pm, so i'm pining away. i'm such a loser. hormones eh? bah!
smirk.gif


hope everyone else's day is going better than mine... i'm just waiting to hear we've exchanged... it's meant to be happening any minute...
