Hi everyone, hope you had a nice time Sophiesmum.
Today I
- have a stinking hangover after a night out
- therefore wont be doing much
- giving something to a freecycler if collection goes OK
- going to one of my investment properties and sorting out the tenancy which in turn helps her pay housing benefit, also an opportunity to check on the property and make sure everything is OK for them
- giving away a couple more baby items to someone
- use petrol that is already in car, cant afford to be putting more in, hopefully enought in (or play petrol lottery, will I make it or not)
- tonight I am going to have a good tidy up
- hopefully feel well enough tonight to sort a product out for a client, involves about 2 hours work online0 -
this is my effort towards a dfw day!

* Used money off voucher in ELC for little boys pressie
* Not in all day so saved on heating
* Ran bleach through washing machine to get rid of nasty pong
* Got little'uns new carseat on sale in Argos
Happy Saturday all

...and a late good afternoon to you
:hello:Sophiesmum!
:beer: andan, happy to help with one item on your list
Have had a hair cut and bought a new hat today!! When I was being made, I must have queued for mad hair, at least that's what I think I did, could have queued for a high IQ or limitless sex appeal, but no, mad hair please.... A hat keeps it under control a little on the way to work. I now have to perfect the head shake for gleaming tresses to cascade down my back. Still working on this :rolleyes:
Have terrible urge to buy new dress for date with ex on Thursday. Please everyone, keep telling me not to. A black pencil skirt, boots and top will be more than adequate. After-all, he would be grateful to see me without, can't believe I wrote that...:o:o:o
Have been riding and done absolutely nothing else
