Grrr! I had set up my TV to record a programme on Saturday night that I was going to miss and SOMEONE stopped the recording and has recorded something else instead! I am fuming!

I can get it on I-player but the connection keeps getting dropped by our useless Internet/broadband so watching anything is a) frustrating and b) takes twice as long as it should do. I was sooo looking forward to watching it in one go with no interruptions and because it is BBC no adverts either. 

Still at least I can watch it.

Lost a dental filling today. Of course after lunch, so that I couldn't reach my dentist anymore.
Have to cope with it until monday now. Hopefully it will not start hurting. 

Davina, I actually still have some here - from last time. 

I do recall (warning not to read on if you are of a sensitive disposition perhaps) that when I had a wobbly tooth as a child my dad tried to take it out with a pair of pliers! The other solution (which we never do now) was to put a thread around the loose tooth and tie it to a door handle (with the door opening away from you) and then suddenly opening the door to pull the tooth out! I had forgotten all about these until you just put you last post up. I cannot quite believe that this happened! Lol!

toothy grin!

I am not a happy camper. I just spent a fortune getting my hair done and I hate it. I voiced my uncertainty at the salon, but in their light it was hard to tell just how bad it really looked. She said she'd be more than willing to fix it next week, if I live with it and don't like it, but it sucks that I have to go back. If it wasn't for my gray hair, I wouldn't be forced to do this crap! And there seems to be no other solution, but this crap.

Mine is actually lighter than I wanted it, but she seemed to feel it was fixable, if I didn't like it so we'll see. I just have to find a cheaper way to deal with my gray.

We used to have roach problems at my old house and I always hated spraying for them. We had to clear out the kitchen cabinets and stuff and then leave the house for hours. And, the chemicals they used always smelled bad, it took days for the smell to go away. It's just a drag. I hope your pest problem is now solved!

The roach problem isn't everywhere bb, but it can be annoying when you have to deal with it. I absolutely hated having them in my old house, but in the inner city, it can be a problem that's inescapable. You spray and they travel house to house, when the houses are so close together. We did get rid of them for long periods of time, but sometimes they came back. And, it wasn't like you could leave, so you had little choice but to learn to deal with it. As difficult as it was to sell that house and move out by myself, I was so happy to be living somewhere new and pest free. 

That's so cool that you rock the grey hair. I really admire that, but just can't bring myself to do it.

Only have one school locally that ever finishes around 2 p.m. Most go on until 3.30 p.m. or even 4 p.m. They start at about 8.45 a.m.-9 a.m. though. College applications...argh! That's what my daughter is in the midst of too.

I bet working on the school newspaper seemed like a really good idea at the time...didn't it!
