    Welcome Lazymoo :hello:

    I gave up trying to get some sleep :rolleyes: I feel better though, brighter.... just had a sniff of some smellies I hadn't opened yet and they cheered me right up :D Gonna use them later when I have my barrrrrrrth.

    Gonna have to stick the heating on again cause it's freezing, who turned it up to cold outside...it's been pretty mild of late so can't really complain.

    Gonna stick the kettle on then the heating then crack on with the dailies....

    Right, kids fed and a little bit calmer. Going to put Star Wars on for them in a minute, then I can disappear upstairs to sort their room.

    Anybody know what a £60.000 mortgage works out as monthly payment? Don't think I earn enough to pay it especially with no deposit, just working out my options...

    embb - and keep a note of when things happen - massive lever in getting them out if you can show ongoing nuisance and you want them elsewhere, especially if police etc are called in and you have notes of dates and times.

    I'm back again! Put another load of washing on, put the dishwasher on and hung up most of the wet washing. Need to try and find more coathangers. Now I know I should go outside and hang some washing up, but the grass is halfway to my knees and without wellies I really don't want to go through it.

    Another 20 mins and I'm going to change small girl and put her up for an afternoon nap. Still haven't found the kitchen table although that will have to wait till the dishwasher has done, and I still haven't found the other sofa in the lounge. I know it's in there somewhere :D

    Oh and I want to use my new food processor but can't think what to make! BTW anyone here know if you can freeze mushroom soup?

    Thanks pigpen x...I've just calculated :T it's looking hopefull.

    I was advised to do that before valli when I went to the council, I did it for a while then I kept forgetting or I wasn't in and stuff like that - but I'm gonna start it again, enough is enough now. Thanks x and to you too Toots x

    I've complained this morning to the anti-social guys, they'll probs advise the same as you guys have when they get back to me.
  • summermoon - hope its the result you want honey!!

    more very industrious people on here today!!

    I did pop in at breakfast time but didnt have time to post as I was getting ready for the dragon's visit!!! Anyway she has now been and is on her way home - probably wont see her for at least a couple of months now I expect. She was reasonably tolerable - it was just an hour so I was extremely good and there were no harsh words (from me anyway!!!!).

    have just scoffed some lunch and once I have finished on here I am off to do the shopping and errands that I didnt get done yesterday and THEN...............





    it will be home to get on with the ironing with re-newed vengence!*!*!*!!!

    hugs to you all and will catch up again later
