Thread #4 - We are crazy talkers here!

ADULT DISCUSSION HERE, SO TRY TO KEEP IT CLEAN! UM NO, WAIT! IF YOU ARE EASILY OFFENDED, LOOK AWAY NOW! 

This is the new thread as the other was sooo long and had lots of pages. Continuation of our wonderful discussions on Twilight Fanfiction, Books, and Life in general.  But mostly Twilight fanfics... and life stuff that will get me a NOT ALLOWED statement. 

Okay, here is a place to discuss what you are reading, ask for recommendations and complain about the writing.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion, so please play nice   

Because we know drypen's watching

Shoot! I wouldn't mind more of that kind of ADD.  My house never gets clean because I always get distracted. So I start one thing, see something elastic do, switch to a third thing, next thing hours have gone by and only a small patch has been cleaned.  And then I'm a perfectionist so when I do clean? It has to be perfect.  Sigh.

So I give up and read. .

This is exactly how I am! Stupid cleaning add

This is exactly how I am! Stupid cleaning add

I sometimes think I should hire a cleaning person to show me how to clean.

But I would need to clean the house first.

Ahh... this is exactly what I think.

Hahaha! I think about getting one to do major cleaning just one time. Then I should be able to keep up with it...right?

But I would still need to clean first.  Sigh. Then it would be clean.  Until my husband came home. He reminds me I knew he was a slob when I married him. So true.  Unfortunately. 

Have to banish pervy thoughts as am off to my Sunday lunch at my mom's. Today, my siblings and I are throwing a party for her 85th bday (which is actually tom). so I will be seeing some of my cousins i havent seen in a while. We made sure the invite was just for our aunts/uncles and our 1st cousins plus their spouses as we are quite a big family (i am the youngest and 42nd cousin, so do the math!). But am sure some will still bring their kids 

Glad this day arrived as my mom has been in and out of the hospital for COPD the past 2 weeks. She's also diabetic, taking daily shots of insulin for several years now. Except for those illness, she is fine and her mind is still as sharp as before. I still give her Mills & Boon books to read  We are thankful she reached her 85th as since my dad died 5 yrs ago, she has been saying she is "ready to go anytime". My only wish for her birthday is she doesn't get too sick or suffer during her last days, hopefully several years from now yet.

I hope you and your mum have a wonderful day, celebrating her birthday. 85 is such a milestone.

My mum had a birthday on Thursday. She is now... 69.

And, yep, every time I think of it, I giggle. I texted her this:



and she replied with "Trust you to think of that!" 

I'm hating this new ads. It keeps moving my screen. At least on my iPad.
Tho it does know me well. It keeps suggesting free books, half time jobs and studying abroad.

So they definitely know I like to read, am unemployed and have been daydreaming of moving to Canada.

Lol, I know what you mean hun - I was on my iPad the other day on here trying to reply and that damn black bar kept moving.
 

Lol, I'm the slob in my relationship apparently as even though I clean the house daily the hubby still goes around after me and tiding and cleaning as it's never enough for him. 
Half the time I just don't other dong the jobs properly on purpose, just so he can do it. 
Talking of my hubby look what he made me yesterday as a treat as he refuses to give into my Mac'n' Cheese craving. 

My gosh Loopy!! You are the luckiest girl in the world! Your husband is a young physical trainer who likes to clean, cook and bake for you?!! Are you sure his brothers aren't "good to go" yet bec i can hear a long line waiting to claim them if they are of the same gene pool and underwent the same household training! 

Awww that's so nice of him. And they look so yummy. The Husband will make me dinner but has no clue about baking. But that's ok because I love it.

Lol, he only does it as I can't cook to save my life and it's definitely the safer option if he does it.

I think I lucked out with him as according to his older brothers wives/girlfriends/boyfriends are all useless in the kitchen and around the house, I think the hubby's eldest brother is the only one who knows how to laundry properly. 
I'm so glad that the brother I was suppose to go on the blind date was sick and the hubby took one for the team.
As for his younger brothers they are the laziest peeps I've ever met. 

No long line.

Just me.



Except for the really young ones - they're still up for grabs.

 
Maybe if I get bored of the hubby I'll send him your way hun.

Can someone tell me why it took me so long to read this story?! It is the sweetest story, one of the most heartbreaking Edward I've read, and more surprisingly a really great Bella, I cried like a baby. If you haven't read it I highly recommend it, if I had any complaints it would be it's not long enough, Purelyamuse has implied she may write more but...*shrug.  she's a pretty good writer, I'm off to read the rest of her stories.

What new ads? I've got Ad Block and can't see any ads whatsoever....ditto on my ipad.

When my house gets messy, I have no one to blame but myself - which is why I can't understand why I currently have 2 glasses sitting in the sink.

I mean, if some man was in the house in the middle of the night, why would he just have a glass of water when there was a willing female in the bedroom? 

By the end of each term, my house is ready for a really thorough clean (well, my OCD deems it ready!) and I usually have a day of each holiday when I clean top to bottom - ceiling fans, air con filters, light fittings, windows, everything.

It's so nice to sit down at the end of the day and see everything all shiny clean - and it is easy to keep it tidy and clean, at least for a little while.

This was one of my constant self debates. Can a woman (and I stress the word woman, as my mother has made it her life mission to stress that any woman worth her chromosome should have the innate ability to clean like Mrs Mop) living on her own, justify employing a cleaner? Then I looked into it and thought f u c k it! It costs me around £30 a visit or so, hell yes I can justify it! £30 compared to the monotony of having to clean once week, usually on a Saturday, as that is the only day I'd have the time,...throwing money at the problem, was what I did, having quality time off was of more value to me.....
