It frustrates me no end that no-one else in my house seems to see the mess (well they probably see it but don't do anything about it). I am always wondering if other people live in mess like we do. I clean it and 3 hours later I wonder why I bothered!!! Just wanted to reassure you that you are not alone, you aren't the only one with a messy family. At this stage though I just dream of the day I will live in my house and be able to walk through each room without tripping over things, picking stuff up etc but then part of me thinks that when that day comes I'll probably be wishing I was back with the comforting mess of my kids <BR/>................................................................................................ <BR/>NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Isn't it funny how its always the little things that build up on top of each other to get us down - and i completely understand about the cleaning - just the same old, same old, over and over. But i have learnt that its ok to walk away from it for the day - it sure as heck will still be there when i get back - and just get out and do something i wanna do for myself. I hope things pick up for you and it all sorts itself out soon. <BR/><BR/>As for the printer - I've always had a cannon, but it died about a month ago so i went a-hunting and settled on a HP photosmart 8230 - it has six ink cartridges and they are not too expensive to have to replace. Has a display panel and you can use it without having to use the comp, card readers and such. Its pretty cool and i'm happy with it.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Take care chicky and i hope tomorrow is a better day for you.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00492618250324633989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254026.post-11861346938526164882007-02-21T23:20:00.000+10:302007-02-21T23:20:00.000+10:30Hi gorgeous.You are more than entitled to whinge h...Hi gorgeous.<BR/>You are more than entitled to whinge hun, you've got alot on your plate and I'm finding its these 'little things' that add up and send you screaming through the streets!<BR/>Bugger about Mitchs' school calling, I dread those calls myself and I have had plenty!!
