Lucielle's daring debt free journey

lucielle

Beetroot is pretty simple if you get them in the ground (which I haven't managed yet.) DS1 is in year 9 and has his first module of maths in June worth 17%. They are actually starting year 10 in June which seems strange. Mind you we are still on a three tier system.

Managed to get the washing, hoovering, beds made, Avon books sorted, Avon bagged off the list.

No paperwork done, seeds planted or Avon delivered. I do have a valid excuse, a friend called and needed some help so hopefully maybe a few £s coming my way.

washing, hoovering and beds made - that is pretty productive where I live!!

err I pegged out 4 towels this morning, now that is the height of productivity for me...

Well, I'm having a productive morning for once. Should've gone to the horses but ended up taking DD1 and DS2 to school. DD1 has made a fantastic plant cell out of a sponge cake and icing. She has spent hours doing it and I didn't have the heart to send her on the bus and risk it getting ruined. Also took in all the old clothing for bags2school.

Finally got round to doing some paperwork, except OH keeps phoning to get me to get quotes for stuff which usually takes ages. Sample of conversation:
OH: can you get me a quote for xxxxx its under the thingy next to the thingy on a piece of paper (15 million bits of paper on said thingy.)
Managed to get that done and some other paperwork which has been hanging around. Washing on the line though it is cold today, my hands are freezing.

DD2 comes back from her trip today and I have to pick her up later. She will be positively venomous through lack of sleep so not looking forward to that one.

Thinking about making lasagne for tea.

Managed to make some card payments today, though OHs wage was dire as he had last week off so it went down to basic. Now have £3 to last until Friday and need dinnermoney, petrol/diesel and probably some milk. Any suggestions welcome on a post card.

Still no news re job. Wish they would get their finger out and put me out of my misery! Going to go and find some lunch, probably scrambled egg and a bit of salad.

Hi lucielle! I love the sponge cake plant cell! She obviously has inherited her mother's baking genes.

I wish the garage would ring too and put ALL of us out of our misery. my fingers are aching from being crossed so long! I started my 2 day a week job yesterday. It was great! It's somewhere I used to work before I had children and it felt great being back there.

Um I got up had breakfast (poached egg)
Kids saw to selves
Drove ds to bus as his prize warhammar was going into school today
Um
Thought about the washing but it was just so grey looking
Haven't packed bag for trip
Scratched head lots for the new bit of equipment I have that I don't know how to work yet - having begged for it at work - I can hardly say - um can someone show me how to use this whizzy bit of kit that I SOOOOOOOOOOOO need

thus ends my productivity so far today - L you have done more than me.

(although just to show off my beetroot is planted - I fell over a brush in the greenhouse wiht beetroot seeds in my hands - they are certainly planted in an ecclectic manner - but as its beetroot easy to recognise when they pop up everywhere:rotfl:)

Usually directly sow mine must try that method.

Seaxwyn, I always struggle with your name and try to forget the 'w'. Glad the job is going well and you like it, hope it leads to something more if that,s what you want.

Managed to eek out 500gms of mince to make 2 lasagnes (enough for 12 of us). Well chuffed with myself. Back to the dreaded paperwork.

Hi Lucielle,

Just popping in to see how you are doing! Hope you get the job,this job search business is not fun ey! OH hasnt heard back from a company who were due to let him know two weeks ago, he even had a second interview with them! To be honest, I think it's just bad manners when they don't call. OH didnt want to ring up looking too eager and feel like was begging for the job,especially if he had'nt got it.
Hope you and the family are having a nice weekend
