Bread Machine?! Who has time to make bread? - wow! I don't even have a DW!

That's why you have a bread machine - it does it for you. Just put the ingredients in and leave it.:j

This afternoon has been spent sorting out our bedroom, I have still not finished and I have been at it for over 2 hours. However rain did go off and we managed to walk the dog so at least I got a break,

mudbath - well done for making your decision and then acting on it not something i'm good at.

right going to find my list and update, hubby on way home from work and as that is him off for the next two weeks on annual leave I need to make a list of jobs for him to do - we are only away for one week so that leaves him the other for bits around the house;)

There are some lovely people on this earth. Went to my local shop and didn't realise till I got home that i'd dropped a tenner. Walked back and a man asked me if I was looking for something. I told him and he'd just handed it in at tesco. Bless him! There are still some honest people out there!!!

Flying wise - house s/s'ed. Bookshelf moved upstairs from dining room, all books sorted (major job as we have bookshelves everywhere). I need to declutter some of my books! xx

Back from Aldi, vets, ASDA so we now have some food but I didn't meal plan so I will have to pick up a few more bits yet.

DS3 room all clean but I need to finish sorting a few more bits with him.

Right tea time as I want to try to revert to regular bedtimes.

Oh I love this thread you lot are so funny sometimes.

Been to see mum today then doing my meeting and greeting at the hospital. Its been really busy.

Last night I spent time writing down all essential information to put into a file. For instance who my mortgage, insurances bank accounts, utilities etc are with and contact details. So if anything happened DD has the info at her finger tips.

Im doing a little flying tonight so I have not a lot to do tomorrow.

Towels are in WM.
Wash white work shirt.
Tidy livingroom.
S&S bathroom.

lil_me Hugs you are having a really busy time.

Kaz Had to laugh at your post when you had a few drinks.

SS Hugs to you and DD3 hope she feels better soon.

sexymouse Im reading Torey Haydens first novel its called Overheard in a Dream.

Pigpen Well done on getting your student loan paid off. :T :beer:

Mudbath Some positive news for you re the extra amount of money. Sounds like you have made a good decision there. Plus getting your tenner back. Your guardian angel has been looking after you. Hows the finger doing?

hex2 I used to love watching GreenWing. My type of humour.

Welcome to flybabybunting and Little Orange:wave:

Good evening ladies - had a bit of catching up to do because earlier attempts to access the WWW failed (due to outages apparently) -daft thing is, when I called the automated service said there were none, so I hung on the line and then the gentleman from a hotter country than this one said there were outages (how do they know on the other side of the world..)to leave it 24 hours and try again.

Being a patient person I waited 1 hour!

Here I am.

Feeling incredibly OS today because I have cleaned bathroom, mopped kitchen floor and changed beds AND

(taa daah) made a cake! Banana and sultana loaf (using up overrripe bananas) in a 2lb tin. Recipe from mum with terse instruction referring to quantity a dieter (me! LOL) can have. Well I have a teenager and a pre-teen and visiting teenagers and pre-teens so don't expect to eat any (thus saving syns for wine;)) and made 5 jars of Rhubarb and Ginger Jam too. (Home grown Rhubarb).

Feel like virtuous 40s housewife!

How jolly! Perhaps it had better be a sweet sherry.

(Just like you flybabybunting I want to know why Nicki istelling us what's in her cupboards? Does she think she's on the Grocery Challenge thread or do we all have to do that?)

OOh Boddy you ARE being organised!:T

Mudbath

Boddy - you've been busy! My finger is less sore and not as blue (thankyou for the arnica cream recommendation, it's really helped. I changed the dressing today and there's hardly any bruise left!).

DH is a champion hamster trainer. I'm a champion woose! I was bitten too often as a child I think. DH just gets in there, picks it up, tells it off, plays with it and even the hamster adores him. Think i'll call him Dr Doolittle! Lol! xx

Valli

I say Mudders, jolly good news about the old finger, what!
