Jamiedodger's Happy Times 2009 Diary

  • The dinner at pizza hut was lovely, we bought home leftovers too:) £61.90 which wasnt too bad for 7 of us!

    Spending the morning sorting out my music today, and updating the boys ipods. Not much housework to do and will be waiting until they go back to school before I tackle it properly.

    Kids are all quiet at the moment you would never guess there were 5 here!

    Ds3 is out with carer today, so that will give me a chance to have a nap this afternoon:D

    Hi all, laptop has broken and cant send it off due to weather, borrowing ds1 for a bit.

    Havent been snowed it, but not really going anywhere. Did tesco on thursday to stock up on bread and milk, schools have all been closed since wednesday, so been stuck in. Snow is pretty bad round here and looks set to get worse tomorrow, so who knows when kids will be going back!

    Will try to keep updated x

    Happy New Year Jamie! Thought you must have given up on the diary, so nice to see you :)

    We too have lots of snow, but DD school was about the only one open, which is good. We're set to get more this weekend, so I'm thinking a few NSD's in store!

    Hope you get your laptop fixed asap, have a good weekend x
  • Hi Jamie, I am glad you are ok and its just technical problems. I hope your lappy is able to be fixed soon :D Shame you dont know when the children are likely to return because you cant plan ahead. Not that you can do much when you are semi house bound :rolleyes:

    I hope the snow passes and life in the J household can resume. Take care as always :D

    Thanks guys!

    Am just using ds1 laptop while I try and wake him up for his paper round!

    Nipped to the co op at the end of my road yesterday to pick up a few bits. We didnt get the extra snow they were forecasting last night so I am pleased about that!:)

    Right he is up so I had better get off!

    ps laptop is insured so as soon as the post gets going again I can sort out the claim!!

    Hope you get the lappy sorted soon, and that you are not going stir crazy in the house while everyone is off school! Does that mean you are off college as well?

    Hey JD, Happy New Year xx

    Sorry the laptop is bust, don't know what I'd do without my computer !! :eek: :o

    Schools shut here too, getting a bit fed up with it now and I love the snow so gawd knows how other people must be feeling. I read on our school websites that they were going to try and open the schools but I can't see how :confused:, especially with more snow on the way.

    Take care JD et all, i'll catch up properly soon (major decluttering/ebaying etc going on here :p).

    Ohhhh and I've handed in my notice at work, last day is 28th January so I'm officialy a proper SAHM then :j.
