TEN months and counting...

Thanks Beanie, had a lovely time but no black bun, folk down our way have shortbread more and I hate it!
Just spent five mins hunting down my mobile, I think I spend more time looking for it than using it! ended up having to call it from the landline - thank goodness I'd taken it off mute...

Ok, I'm feeling pants today so this weekends list is:

[STRIKE]1. Spend time on sofa[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE] 2. Drink lots of fluids[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]3. Have to drop DS off at his dad's[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]4. In the occasional moments of feeling better try and put the decs away...[/STRIKE]

:T :T :T I've done them all already and it's only Friday! must make easy lists all the time from now on. Still got red, runny nose so nothing to taxing for the rest of the weekend...:D

Grumpy spice here today, went down to pick up a parcel at 10:15 to find the special office bit closed at 9:30! it's about midday during the week so I assumed it was the same if not later on a sat... It does have the time on the card but the sat time is very smudgy and difficult to read. Amazingly enough I could have gotten there for 9:30 for once as I was up...
Planning to go into town in a bit to take some unwanted xmas pressies back - hopefully I can get gift cards that I can use later in the year when we need something (shortie pjs from me would be much more useful if they can be converted to school trousers for DS).

PJs taken back, other stuff more problematic though - boots aren't great on refunding without receipt. may sell on ebay or something...
Have listed a load of cds and dvds on music magpie and going to list some stuff on ebay later, feeling too rubbish to go out and do anything but not so ill I'm not restless being stuck at home...
Also DS has filled one of the HUGE drawers of my coffee table full of junk so I'm going to try and tackle that today (he's not here so won't know how much I've chucked out).

Hi skintspice just been reading your diary! Good luck on your journey xxx

beanielou

Good luck with the chucking out!

Hope the nose is calming down, i find vaseline works wonders. Still you have achieved a fair bit so nothing to sniff at! 'groan'

The chucking out has gone very well and DS better keep his drawer tidy from now on - the idea is that he keeps his arty stuff there so it's all in one place not that he crams things in until you can't find anything! found some photos of us which made me laugh, you know the ones you get taken on log flumes etc he's always laughing and I'm always screaming!
Have quite a lot of stuff on the music magpie now and just about to click to get the envelope sent - hopefully about £25 for some old stuff I never play/watch.

oh and the nose has not calmed down much and I've been smothering it with aqueous cream so it's shiny as well as red!

Not so impressed with the musicmagpie site - there are a couple of things that it offers me £3 and £3.50 for but then it revalues the order and puts them down to zero strangely enough when you put them in as new items it shows £3 and £3.50 again... worried now that I send them off and get nothing back so I think I'll just try and ebay them after all or take them to carboot.

That is definately something to watch out for then. I have never tried it msyelf although i did look up the value of a couple of things.
