Well I've been ill this last week so I've not done much or been on here much and this week my dd is unwell so she's off nursery cos she's been vomiting everywhere but she seems ok today.
I'm making a list of things to do today and I HAVE to do them cos I'm feeling behind:
1. Put a wash in
2. Do all ironing
3. Walk to post office and pick up two missed parcels
4. Tidy our bedroom
5. wash all dishes
6. make an appointment with doctor
7. clean all mirrors
8. clean kitchen and living room windows and front door
9. order my friends christmas present
10. write another five christmas cards
This is a very doable list and if for once I can get it completed I will feel so much better...
so looking for ward to watching come christmas films!0 -

oh, and hopefully negotiating a great deal on a new house!!
on the plus side I've pretty much chosen everyones gifts - OH's especially were giving me a nightmare but he will be getting - ps3 game, ps3 rumble pad, football boots and a stocking with football shorts, socks and dark knight dvd. PS - he is 27 not 17 as gifts may suggest!
By the way - fudge didnt turn out all that great so may not be doing homemade fudge for people! It tastes good but is too squishy to cut into pieces:(MANAGED TO CLEAR A 3K OVERDRAFT IN ONE FRUGAL, SUPER CHARGED MONEY EARNING MONTH!:j
