    Hi guys :wave:

    tooch you can find us on Facebook if you search 'ol'style mse' we're all on it...practically.

    I'm feeling much more my old self today thank goodness so we went out and about - doesn't it feel weird being out when you've been in for almost 10 days. Had a rather charming day, went to see GD then to Jarrow (urgh) to Morissons for those tins of choccies but they had NONE! :rolleyes: pottered around home bargains and bought nothing :eek: *keels over* :eek: went to New Look for some ugg boot type things and they didn't have my size :( and bought a hot sausage roll from Greggs - pretty cheap day out lol.....then we went to a lovely Christmas craft fair at Souter Lighthouse - never been to one before and it was charming, I bought a book mark - but littley came away with bags of stuff....including a free bath bomb off the nice lady, she was selling them for £2 :eek: ...oh and she got a free book mark with Santa on :j Came home - warmed up, got the chicken in the oven and chilled.

    I've loaded the DW (we'd run out of plates/cutlery so I had to :o ) teenies done some washing and I'm just about to S&S the kitchen. DS1 has a pc desk I can have - it's outside in the rain but it's mine! and it's free! and it's what I would have bought anyway :money: but I really, really wish he'd ask me before he slings stuff out, he ruined a fabulous table and chairs by doing that.

    Right, kitchen....

    Can anyone tell me when afternoon ends and evening begins?
    I have a freecycler who said she was coming into town for the Remembrance parade and would call to collect item this afternoon.
    And it's now raining/hailing :mad:

    Grrrr - why is there a car alarm going off outside the front of my house, and fireworks going off out the back? Too much noise!!!

    I really need to get this planning done, but I'm in go slow mode at the moment and getting nowhere fast!!

    Looking forward to the pix!

    Paint brush, roller and tray now washed and drying in the utility area ready for tomorrow night. Beef in oven. I think I'll peel the veg then go soak in the bath for a bit. I'm also going to have to shut the kitchen windows it's now getting cold!

    I asked big girl and she said "whoa!" :D One way it looks different, but not the other way.

    I just have faaaaaaaaaaar too many clothes to sort through at the moment. So I'm bagging them all to go upstairs into various rooms to be put away. I've already taken up two big shopping bags full of clothes to sort and then store. Got one washing basket to go through and I need to clear the kitchen table. Then I'm getting Mr G to lug these bags upstairs and take a couple of boxes downstairs for me when he gets home and I should be practically done :j It's just a slog!

    As soon as I'm done and the table is laid I shall take after pictures. The before pictures it's just a mass of stuff, hopefully after ones should show a table, chairs and floor :rotfl:
