Morning all - fior all you weather watchers the needle on my barometer has moved from 'rain' all the way round to 'change' quite a big move and in the direction of 'fair' so good luck with all the line drying!

Oh I've always wanted one of those. Are they expensive. It is our anniversary this month we could treat ourselves to one.

AF is due here today - I can't wait, I always feel so much better 24 hours after she has settled in.

Been flying nonstop so will update my list in a minute.

It is dry here but very dark clouds so I'm keeping a very close eye on the weather

Right I've prepared dinner for tonight. Cottage pie. In fact made enough for two so one lot can go in the freezer once it's cooled down. Veggies peeled and ready to put on later. Just waiting for the tatoes to finish so I can mash them. Then that's all done.;)

Made up some egg mayo for lunch for me today and everyone else tomorrow.;)

I've done 5 loads of washing and the line is jam packed with more waiting to go out, but it doesn't seem to be drying very quickly:rolleyes:

Anyone fancy a HHC 11.45 - 12 15?

Got my quids from the bank... manage dto lock my new bank card because I couldn't remember the pin.. oops lol.. another thing to sort. I'm throwing a couple of bits over to tomorrows list and delegating a few things to hubby.

When the children get in we are having a 'family meeting' and discussing a job rota.. I cannot manage everything and most of them are old enough to be learning new things.. they can each choose a job to be theirs from a list as long as my arm and it will be there responsibility.. they will also get another job which will be changed on a weekly basis and that includes hubby!! .. New rules in my house.. oh.. listy updatey to do too.. found somehting else to add.. 2 things actually..

now I have to pee.. collect tiddles and go bug someone for teeeaa.... (only because it is too early for vodka!!)

Goodness how'd you guys post so much whilst I was doing my second HHC?

So I've had a WHC and added to my first lot I have:

• Repacked DF's bottom shelf (he always just yanks stuff out and ALWAYS from the bottom:mad:)
• Made beds
• Dusted around the bedroom
• Found another load of washing in TD:eek:put that away so now there's just yesterdays clothes in the washing basket.
• Mopped lounge floor.

I think Im going to have a cuppa and then a shower then go out so I can cross that stuff off my list and then I can also do the sewing machine table:jand that...will sort out my biggest hotspot:j

Just noticed your sig pigpen it's amazing how much you've paid off your debts, well done gal :T

I was mega chuffed the other day when I phoned and paid off my bedroom furniture £619.00....it took a while to save for but there was no way I was paying an extra £1000 because I couldn't be bothered to pay it during the 'free' 12 months buy now pay later, OH was chuffed cause as he said 'you've saved £1000 today' - at one time I would have just let it go and paid for another 3 yrs.

K, floors are dry now so I'm gonna go and runthe bath, takes about 15 mins *yawn*

ETA: Dusty OH lives round the corner, probs about 3 mins walk.....even when we split up I couldn't bare to be that far away from him - it seems! pass the sick bag
