OS Thursday 4th January

Options
Hi, this is the Daily Thread for Thursday 4th Jan. This is an “over the garden fence” type thread where we chat about everything OS and maybe a little bit more. It’s a great, inspiring and motivating thread we start each day to discuss what we’re going to do today or what we’ve achieved already. Everyone’s welcome, please do come in, put your feet up (although check the fence hasn’t just been painted first!) and join us for an OS natter. The more the merrier!

When you make a post, if you feel like giving it a title, that will help others that don’t have the time to read everything skim through the thread quickly but if not it's not a problem, we’re a laid back bunch here so you won’t hear any complaints. Please do not start a new daily thread before you go to bed at night because this often leaves things confusing with two daily threads live at the same time. The idea is that a member would start each new daily thread
after they get up in the morning

Some people who chat here like to try to answer everyone. Don’t feel you have to though, a general “hi everyone, hope everyone’s well” type start does just as well.

  • Morning Guys!

    DD back to school today:T For some reason I can’t get back to sleep and have been awake for the past twenty minutes.

    WM on, DW is empty and the toilet cleaned. OH sorted the TD out yesterday, so is now there and ready if needed. Have an engineer coming out Friday as my new cooker (only installed 4 weeks ago!) has started playing up! The fan at the back won’t go round properly-luckily covered for 2 years. OH has had to put old one back.

    Have hospital this morning, so will go with OH & DD at 7.40 when leaving for school. Also need to take back a pair of trousers to M&S which have come undone on the leg slightly-they cost £35 so will either ask for a refund or exchange. Still have the receipt and are 9 weeks old but only worn twice! Also have a silk nighty bought for Xmas which I don’t particularly like and they have kindly put a gift receipt in, so it can be easily taken back.

    Anyway, I need a cuppa! Will catch up with you guys later.

    Breakie: Bacon & Onion Roll
    Lunch: Baked Spud, Ham & Salad
    Dinner: Shepards Pie, Cabbage and Carrots

    Hugs to all.

    :j Morning Everyone.

    AT LAST my sales shopping turned out to be successfull. Tuesday was disaster with nothing found. But yesterday satisfied that need I had to get a bargain.
    Got some great brown shoes were £75 now £10. Only pair in the shop and the saleslady said she had just put them out from the stockroom...:D
    Got some great black work shoes in M&S were £49 now £19, that used up those awful vouchers I was given.:D
    Then I found a brand new pair of work trousers for £6 in a charity shop, looks like they would have been £49 in M&S new....:D

    Well chuffed I was..... Now the icing on the cake. The missus went to a posh outfitters and found an underwear and lingerie basket where everything was £1. Now I might be a bloke, but I can smell a bargain in womens Knickers!!!!!:rotfl:
    Apparently Wonderbra, Charnos, Lepel are good makes? at £1 I figured I could make a killing on e-bay. So while she rummaged in the pants for something for her self, I rummaged in the ladies knickers for something to sell. Bought £33 worth of stuff. If I can't treble that or more I will be very surprised. :D:D
    Might go back for another dip today. Maximise the sales potential....
    So not a bad day...all finished off with a nice steak and bottle of wine...Oh and .......:rolleyes:
    NO to pasty tax We won!!!! Just shows that people power works! Don't be apathetic to your cause!

    morning all:)

    rushed around like a nutter yesterday as it was the first day back to school, so got loads done i couldnt while the kids were off.

    took a trip to lidl for food, spent 21 quid so hopefully i wont need that much more this week, trying so hard to keep under budget:D

    have housework planned for this morning after school run, but not too much:rotfl: will just be doing my flylady list.

    after that have some work to do, making some more candles up today:D as they are still selling really well!

    need to backup some stuff on my computer, i am terrible at remembering to do this:rolleyes:

    will be spending some time today on trying to earn some free money for the olympic challenge:T

    might stretch to making some cakes later if there is time:D i dont know what we are having for dinner yet as i havent done a meal planner for this week....will have to try and do one today, maybe this evening if i get chance:)

    hope everyone has a good day, hugs to all that need them and a hi to aime over the rooftops:hello:
