    Anyone know where I can get an under the sink bin that you just put a carrier bag on?

    The lid on the kitchen bin has broken. Which is handy in a way as I'm gonna get rid of the bin and put the puppy's bed where the bin used to be. She sleeps by the patio doors at the moment but that's gonna be far to cold a spot for her when the cold weather hits.

    Interview done and home. Turned left on way out of carpark and ended up in yokel land:eek: , doubled my journey time home but I could still be driving around clueless:rotfl: .

    Think interview went ok, the chap was lovely. The lady was a real cold fish:eek: . This one is only for 22.5 hrs, is 10 mins down the road and would be Tue, Wed and Thur. The other one is 30 hr, 40 mins down the road and would be Mon - Fri (although 10am start so could drop littles at school in the morning. Arghh! Having kids complicates things 'cos they have to come into the equation, its not about what YOU want to do is it:o . Still they may not offer me this one (gone from no-one will give me a job to thinking everyone will;) ) so the decision is made for me then.

    Right off to make a cuppa, hoover through and then pop to give DD1 her medicine and collect DD2 from lunch club.

    More good news - DD1 passport has arrived - that is a big relief:j .

    Morning all

    Shell well done on going through with the other interview and positive vibes coming your way

    Lil_me well done on getting the assignment done; how you do it I will never know, I don't even manage to complete a suduko aday!

    Soappie - Government things like that make my blood boil

    Just letting the floors dry before I get on with a bit more flying - I really want to try to achieve some of my list today.

    Still no news on DH job so the waiting continues but it now pales into insignificance compared with what poor Wheeler is going through.

    As lots of us have kids getting end of term reports I thought it would be fun if we did reports for ourselves or other flyladies as to how well we have performed this term - what do you think?

    List for today

    OH office - Deweb
    Living room - wet wiping
    DS1 room - wet wiping
    [STRIKE]Floors downstairs - hoover and mop
    [/STRIKE]Downstairs cloakroom
    Change all beds
    Bathroom
    Change all towels
    Get more insurance quotes

    This week:

    Sow seeds
    Sort insurance Quotes
    Pay tax
    Sort pile in Family Room
    Ads for corner shop/ebay
    House accounts.

    Make lemon drizzle cake for DD1 to take into school tomorrow
    Thank you cards & pressies for Nursery/school
    Pop into office and give back office keys (plus thank you card for flowers)
    Collect DD1 from friends at 6.30

    I'm piggin' freezing here! Have I slept through summer or something:confused: Winter curtain back up on the back door, doors all shut tight, I've got a jumper on with a fleece jacket over the top and I think I'm about to give in and see if I can find a pair of gloves I can wear while typing :snow_grin Going to make another mug of hot chocolate and crack on again. Just spent 30 minutes working my way through odd bits of a report into store cards from 2005 so I'm not just quoting stuff from the course book ;)

    I have a feeling I'm going to have to give in soon and put the light on, if I do I'm going to close the blind in the kitchen and the curtains/blinds in the livingroom as well, try and keep some more of the damp/cold out and me warm! :wave:
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    Slow progress here, AF has arrived and is being a nuisance by making me wanting to sit down all the time.

    Going to do a couple of jobs on the pc whilst having a cuppa and some chocolate to try to get me moving.

    Thanks for that. But it looks like they want £3.95 for delivery.:eek:
    I didn't know if somewhere like Wilkinsons did them?

    Well things must be tight at the moment. I've just looked at Cooking by Numbers in an attempt to conjure up something for dinner tonight. I've decided on Chicken and Rice Bake. It's a sling it in the oven job. My type of cooking:D So fingers crossed it comes out ok.

    Had quite a good day so far. My mini fly lady was at it again this morning. I got up to her cleaning the glass on the living room door with my diluted Star Drops:D She did a good job too. She obviously watches mummy more than I thought.

    Gonna have a break now. DD is at a school disco this afternoon so doesn't need picking up until 4.00 pm. So I still have a few hours to myself. Oh the peace and quiet. I love it.:D:D
