I've managed just the one. And I'm at work the next three days so won't get any more done until Thursday.0

Urgh, how can it be Monday again? I swear there are more Mondays in the week than any other days!0

Bah, I went to order the bed and it's out of stock again.0

hopefully it will come back into stock soon - don't give up hope!
I have done my 4 dooyoo reviews this week, but I hope I can get another couple done in the next few days.....I need £15 to get to the next payout, so a fair few more to get written and reviewed!Successful women can still have their feet on the ground.

DD came back from her trip today, tired, pale, dishevelled and with a bag of the muddiest clothes I ever did see. The staff who went with her said she loved the mud! Can't wait to see the photos!
Just ordered a £10 voucher from Consumer Pulse and only joined two weeks ago - not bad going if it arrives!0 -

Just finished washing the ball of mud that came back from DD's trip to discover some clothes hidden inside. Some were completely beyond redemption though and have gone in the bin - not a bad thing as she usually refuses to wear the lovely new clothes that fit that she has and instead chooses to wear a selection of slightly too small, faded ancient outfits. I deliberately sent them in her bag as I knew how muddy she would get.
Really proud of her - she gave up chocolate, biscuits and cake for Lent and is doing so well (for a chocaholic like her mam!). At school last week a visitor gave the whole class a chocolate and she brought hers home and put it in the fridge (despite the teaching assistant telling her if she just ate it no-one would know!) then while she was away the dessert on the first and second days were chocolate cake and chocolate brownie so she gave them to my niece. I think she was glad when they got apple crumble on the third day though!0 -
The bed DD wants is back in stock again, but is now £242 instead of £155!0

Reminded me I need to get back onto dooyoo again. Time is such a pain - why can't we have an extra day in the week with no kids and just the internet instead to get these things done?!
Bah to the bed. Don't suppose there's anything similar in Ikea for cheaper?0
