Those clothes piled upstairs that'll qualify me for a Channel 4 documentary by the weekend. Stay there.
The job application giving me the evil eye from the corner of this screen. "Please state your reasons for wanting this job" Answer so far: "1."
That e-mail inviting me to a hen party with a 1920s flapper theme. Unanswered. It gives me eyelash cramp.
Another packet of Rivita lies unopened next to the other unopened packet of Rivita. Use by October 2011. I just discovered this yesterday. Oh well.
Planning permission needed for anti-gravity direction of hair. Wait till its grows as far as next door and they can deal with it.

You? Have a cuppa before you answer.

Uh everything. House is a tip, usually having work every morning is my excuse to myself for leaving it that way. Off for next 2 days with sick DD so can't use that excuse, will now have to go and clean the kids bedrooms, the horror.

I love the thought of a 20's theme hen night! The thought of it anyway, if I had to go to one I would probably think differently.

The mountain of ironing in the spare room......one day.
The even bigger mountain of washing that needs to be done...while I attempt to wear clothes I haven't worn in years as everything else is dirty.....
The en suite bathroom that is slowly turning into a biohazard......after my exams
The whole house needs not just a clean but an in depth, hyper sterile, on your knees and scrub clean....after my exams
The new plants that I bought 2 weeks ago and are still being battered by the wind and rain in their Tesco pots...after my exams
The exercise plan that I need to adopt or I am in fear of bursting my trousers and going to that size I never said I would go to...after my exams
The low fat, low carb, highly boring diet that I need to adopt for same reasons as above....after my exams

Apparently when my exams are done I will be a domestic Goddess who looks like a Supermodel! For now.........I'd like a large quarter pounder with cheese meal, a tub of rescue remedy and a maid.

Where do I start......

Dryer is broken, so the pile of bedclothes that STILL need to be brought to the laundrette-don't worry, we have a tonne of bedlinen

The unloved clothes that are crying out to be brought to the local charity shop

The wardrobe clearout that's been top of the To List for........I can't/won't admit how long :-8

Gettin' my ass on the exercise bike or even the cross-trainer, to help get rid of the thunder thighs.

Put off killing me colleague. Her 1st response to me mentioning I'm booking time off is "Oh I won't be here..." Eh? I don't remember asking and I got in there 1st e-mailing the boss. I won't miss free tickets to an Olympic event and free gaff in London because you didn't bother e-mailing when you knew you were away. Anyway, that what temps are for. I won't lose sleep over it. Mrs Negativity always tries to knock the shine off things!

THe shower calling me. Yes, it's 2pm and I'm still in my PJs. And I'm goign to the in-laws this afternoon so really need to get ready. My husband asked me to be ready when he got here (in about an hour) cos he has work to do this evening and wants to visit them and come home so he wants me to be ready to go. And I swore I'd be ready. But I still have to shower, dress, stick on some make-up and do yesterday's dishes, which I also volunteered to do.

Will just WOL a bit first.

That's the stuff wimmin. As a wise philospher by the name of Homer once opined..trying is the first step to failure.

And what does failure equal? (cups ear in anticipation)

oh god where do I start...

Bedroom is a tip, I cant see the floor with the clothes which probably isnt a bad thing since I was stupid enough to get a thick beige carpet that shows up the dirt so easy it needs to be hoovered at least once a day.

Kitchen is still painted bright orange 3 years after we moved in, the walls are manky and need to be washed. I even have the promise of a lovely new dresser for free and I still cant be arsed.

Sitting room is seriously messy too, puppy has a habit of flittering every bit of tissue/newspaper/cardboard she can find.

Ensuite bathroom fan is broken this 6 (more like 12) months and there is now mould growing on the ceiling.

Diet that I cant be arsed doing, I'm tricking myself with salads that i cover in dressing and eat with loads of bread. I then tell myself that exercise will do it and think that half walking/dragging the pup for half an hour is a good walk.

I have 5 accountancy exams left to do but I have now decided to switch to another body because they're more relevant to working in industry but I havent registered yet.

I wish my boss would sack me so that I would get off my arse and look for a new job, either that or I'll get sacked for murdering him for being so stupid (the latter is probably more likely)

I wasnt expecting to write all that, I could write more too but I just cant be arsed..

Hmm. How about:

Get dressed before the husband of almost one year comes home? At present I am wearing: purple fleece with a stripey top underneath, grey leggings with black multicoloured socks, topped off by grey legwarmers. I am a vision. I'm pretty sure I'm a bit premature on the 'letting myself go after marriage' thing.

In my defence, these are my dog walking clothes and I've been sick all week :o0

I, since the birth of my wonderful little boy, seemed to have morphed into the "opposite " of yummy mummy. You wouldn't recognise me now (at 37) from when I was 35 even.

I'm fair haired, with highlights. The highlights are down around my ears :-8

I have grey hairs sprouting from all over my crown esp my parting. I'm straight haired, but the greys are curly, JUST so they can stand out more! I pluck them with a tweezers :-8

Badly need a cut, the split ends are splitting at this stage!
I've gained alot of weight & his hasn't gone un-noticed, esp by the MIL O:|

INside of house is ok, I keep it pretty well. BUt outdoors is a mess! We have an acre of field around our house, 2 feet long, that'll take about €10000 to turn into a "Lawn". Which we don't have! We badly need to get the footpaths done around the house.....

The one room in our house the is a disaster zone is my walk in wardrobe, which is more like a walk in bomb site, as we have NO shelves up & there are clothes everywhere.

I'm also useless on the form filling, a few to do & some waiting for months! :-8

PussyGalore · by **PussyGalore** » Thu May 10, 2022 7:52 pm

Ladies, I have a confession ... I got dressed.
Yes, i know, I'm a disgrace, one of those go-getters that belong on the other thread. *I'm off to beat myself with a wet fish*
