    Started scan (so PC is VERY slow)
    pegged out washing - it doesn't look particularly promising but it might brighten up...
    started bathroom
    spoke to sis who was online as she spoke and saw Sarah's 'present' pop up - thanks hun! - she couldn't believe how many views so I had to 'fess up about you ...:rotfl:
    I might now know who sent the packet with insufficient postage which I didn't go and claim. She sent us all a card with a xmas dec apparently - some were delivered but my other sis and I didn't get one - and when I got the card telling me it was at the PO I decided to ignore it. She has already got one back undelivered to my sis so we'll see if she gets this one back. Why some were delivered and some not when they all had the same postage on is a mystery...
    ah well - onwards and upwards
    (but I am still sneezing and snuffling and coughing)

    just been updating my list kitchen/dining room sparkling - still need to do windows and cupboard, but dd and i have had to go to minor injuries for her leg and she now has a appt for physio on monday so i'm a bit behind but still have 2 hrs before ds gets back from school.

    hm soup defrosting in the microwave for us with hm bread buns, bm on for making more bread buns and when had lunch going to get cracking again - nothing is taking too long because now i'm not having to scrub things to get them clean;)

    Today's list is complete and now i'm just decluttering. I've just signed DD and me up for the Race for Life - it will be our 4th time and I'm very proud of DD who always wants to run it. Last year we ran it and I managed but I was nearly dead for the following three days. This year I will run it and I will be fit. That is my challenge.

    So, off to do some training on the wii fit - already walked the frogs for an hour. Then it's walk to the post office and then declutter time!

    Hugs to you all especially Triker. Hope the exam was ok Carol xx

    hey peeps :wave:

    and welcome mummy5 :wave: - just join in. you can't do anything wrong
    Valli happy birthday to your dd! i am sure she won't mind!!

    sexymouse funny you say you will make your own book with recipes; i've had the very same idea too! :T
    like you i've got lots of sheets with recipes all over the place - but not for much longer ;)




    i am dead today. just cold all the time; everything hurts and i haven't eaten anything so far all day ... and don't fancy anything either :eek:

    i've dropped the kids off at nursery at 9am then went straight to homebase and bought a few more things than expected :o - but i've got plants in proper flower pots all over the house and it's true, it does make it look much nicer :T
    then oh and i (he's home today) cleaned the rest of the house and it looks rather nice now (don't look in any cupboards :o )

    might even put up a picture or two later :rolleyes:


    then i fell onto the sofa and couldn't move for an hour!
    decided not to cook because i can't see myself standing in the kitchen for that long and i asked oh to get us some chicken later :D
