Day 1 in the not killing mother household. Within 5 minutes of arriving she had fallen off her chair outside (she has to go out to smoke) and is now sporting a bruise on her forehead. I have the children on grandma watch and have to make sure they put everything away in case she trips up.
Went to view 2 properties last night. 1 might be a goer, just need some more info from the vendors. OH and the DS' have gone orf to a farm sale. DDi and I are in the process of making millionaires shortbread and DD2 is going to bake a chocolate cake. Paid £110 off the debt yesterday, seems to be going soooo sloooowwwllllyyyyyy at the mo. Also taxed OHs car, paid the vet bill and the oil.
Went to DD1s leaver service where her and her friend read out a poem they had both written. t'was very good if I say so myself. Loving my haircut just wish I could style it this way. Going to wash it tomorrow, also doing my other job. Feel a bit guilty about that as it means leaving the chaps with grandma as OH is working as well. However every little bit helps towards the ski trip.

Going to view a house we've seen for the second time on Tuesday. Going at a different time to asses the traffic situation.

Oh thankfully mine hasn't heard of that yet, not that she would ever visit, but just in case don't tell her - goodluck with that, sorry to hear she's had a fall, hope she's OK.
Granny watch sounds a bit like spring watch - you need one of those tiny cameras!! Keep track of her
Goodluck with the house second look.
Can't comment on the cakes, *you know I have a cake allergy - yuk* but everyone else who's normally here does like millionaires shortbread, I've been told its very very nice.
