    A bit of flying today

    Emptied wardrobe in spare room ready to dismantle
    Tidied everything away from wardrobe and regained some floor space in spare room.
    A big job all the same as it is spare and storage room only!

    Try some more tomorrow.......

    Well done to all who have done anything, and those who thought about doing something but didn't :T

    I joined in as well, and did the DW, S&S the kitchen and cleared the hotspot that is the DR table. need to hoover, but then I always need to hoover.

    Boys have decorated the tree with suitably 'interesting' results. They also written letters for Santa, DS1 has written 'I have been quite good some of the time' which made me laugh.

    I am now going to see if I can chase away feeling down for no good reason with a meringue topped mice pie if anyone else fancies one?

    Meant to say earlier very envious of the Storm Flower. Am I right in thinking it is only available on Vodaphone?

    Yes please for the pictures Tag

    Evening all
    Kaz - hugs love
    G&B - hope you and yours get well soon
    Pink - take it easy - good news about back to chest infection - it should clear up soon now - as long as you don't do too much!

    What a cold day it's been! We've been freezing in the office. The radiator's only ever got to luke warm. It's been reported, but we don't hold much hope for getting it fixed! So tomorrow, I'll wear thermals and socks!

    Strange day at the office. Got a phone call from my previous site

    'could you come up for a meeting on Wednesday about xyz?'
    'Um no - I'm on a training course'.
    'Can you cancel it?'
    'Not really....'
    'It's just you need to be there as you'll be working on the project'
    'Pardon? Does this mean you're pulling me off the project you've just sent me to a different site for?'
    'Um well yes - priorities and all that. Never mind, we'll sort something out...'

    My new line manager was out so I can't speak to him until tomorrow. A little later, an email came through. Seems they want me to do two weeks there, a week here another two weeks there until February! I won't know whether I'm coming or going!

    It has to have the approval of my line manager so I can see we'll be in deep discussion first thing tomorrow!

    But, hey, as long as the invoices get paid, I guess I don't care that much (I do - but I need to be professional!)

    Off now to boil up the carcass from yesterday's chicken and make chicken stoup for tea...
    I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

    OK did some one kick me up the bum cause I have been through the kitchen like a tornado. Discoverd I stood in some poop out side and it was on the floor, erghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. So the kitchen that I was just going to tidy around has not been completly bottom.

    Just sat for a cup of tea as per my dad as I have a very weird pain low down on left side that goes around my back. Never mind off to finish the kitchen, so I can add some decs in there too. I bought two fake window things from ebay a while ago and just put them up. They are basically plastic sheets with a picture of a window on, to make it look like a window on your wall lol.

    Ok going to stop trying to explain this one lol, will try and get a pic later.

    Right off to Fly again,

    A bit late but Im in again this week. Was shattered when I got in from work last night. Today Ive been into Newcastle doing the rest of my xmas shopping. I was so glad when I got home. Managed to get a few bargains.

    The frost had gone when I got up and it looked like it had been raining. When I went out to put the bin out I discovered there was ice as I did a slide down the yard. Freezing and had a few sleet showers, snow forecast for tomorrow.

    Hmm spare room. At the minute it has piles of xmas presents all over. Want them all wrapped and in bags this week.

    Not much flying done but have washed and put away dishes and tidied kitchen.

    Welcome to the newbies.

    g&b Hope you and LO feel better soon.

    lil_me Hope you are feeling better too.

    kazwookie Sorry to hear your sad news. Hugs.
