  • kindlesgirl Wow.... you've done really well, good for you!!! :T

    Polkadot what a good idea! I am a great believer in 'casting bread...' because something positive so often comes up when you do - so good luck with that one!

    HHP done about 20 mins also repotted spider plant (chlorophytum to you gardeners) and removed some roots as it has been trying to push itself out of the pot like a stripy triffid. I only have 4 plants (don't count the plastic one in the bathroom :rotfl:) and this is the baby. The other three are all older than my kids and DS is 15 (OMG how did that happen?) on Thursday - he was almost my pressie 15 years ago - he was born the day before mine (2 weeks late!)

    hello again all

    I feel rough, which is a bit worrying considering tonight! My head feels really heavy and my neck hurts :( oh well, sure i'll brighten up later!

    I've done the meal plan and the online shop (just under £80 for 2 weeks). I had my phone conference but have done little else. Need to have some lunch and make a couple of calls, then I think I'll have a bath and go out for a wander, maybe a coffee in starbucks or something (though I won't make the same mistake as last week and go at school kicking out time!)

    right, I'm going to work til 2 and then have a sarnie or something.

    Half hour turned into an hour but I have -
    emptied & reloaded WM
    cleared airers of dried washing
    hung up wet washing
    put away dried washing that didint need ironing
    dusted LR
    hoovered LR & upstairs hall
    loaded & put on DW
    stripped girls beds & sorted out the clean linen to go back on

    Think thats it need to go get the girls now but will be back later, kids rooms not too bad just need a hoover, bathrooms need cleaned and kitchen s&s, also need to sort out bank accounts as paid yesterday and loan through today to sort out house move debt so might do that with a cuppa later.
