Morning all. Sounds like it could be "One of those days" for most of us!
Checked my online banking this morning and found Orange have taken 2 payments instead of one. LIVID!! I have warned them that I will be passing on any bank charges! I keep my accounts perfect - past/current/forecast, so I know what needs paying and when. So I do not have any extra cash in the account because any extra goes towards the debts.
At least I have the money for selling the dog - I will have to go to the bank later. ARGH! And its going to take nearly 7 days to get the money back from them.
It could be worse! Going to Tesco after Uni - will have to spend less (HOW??)
My first OU tutorial tonight!! Excited!
My Ebay stuff is going well, and decided that I am not taking OH to Grand Prix. Cant afford it, but I can dream I suppose! (I do that a lot - am also dreaming of re-decorating hall way now dog has gone and no-one to ruin it, but again - cant afford it!!! I may use the Ebay money for that!!)
Anyway, SC is about to go on with Chicken Curry for tea. At least it will be easy for me as there is no time tonight. Alhough I am admitting defeat on the rice and will buy the microwaveable stuff - at least thats edible compared to mine.
Hope the day gets better for everyone! Just look to the good things today, the days are getting longer and it wont be long before we are sitting in our gardens sun-bathing!0 -
Last night was not so good for us. I ended up rushing DS to the DR as he had a temprature of 39.7.
The DR told me that he has a urine infection and a upper respiratory infection poor little thing.
I am feeling much better today not been sick anymore.
Not much planned for today i am just going to be there for Joshie.
Hugs to everyone else that is feeling ill.

Morning all
So many poorly people about again....hope you're all feeling better soon.
No frost here this morning but that wind is bitter.....forgot my gloves on the school run and they've still not thawed out!
An empty house for me again today - I managed to do my ironing yesterday, all the washings up to date - last load in the WM now - which will go in TD as it's just towels and bath bats. Bathroom had a good going over last night with vinegar and bicarb and is all sparkly today.
Breakfast - half and half HM toast (another sucessful loaf!!)
Lunch - wraps for DH, DD's have left over leek and potato soup from last night in their food flasks, with HM choccy muffins and fruit.
Dinner - Spag bol and tomato and basil bread.
DD's love having their food flasks for school, the head teached even commented yesterday to me that they always have such nice, healthy looking lunches......a couple of the teachers always have to pinch a bit of soup or stew too.!! DD1 asked if she could take 6 muffins today as her friends all wanted one.....I guess I know what I'll be making for their class treat day next week!
DH has gone to pay the car tax today - only doing 6 months this time as I want to get the payment date away from this time of year.
Right - I'm off for a morning of crocheting and a dvd....I could get seriously used to this!

Oh I hate winter.
Started this morning full of promise and reasonably free of aches and pains. Done the school run minus gloves as I couldn't find them before we went out the door and now I can't grip things again. Thank the lord I have a soft touch keyboard!
