The revenge of the stripey socks - a DFW adventure

Pippilongstocking

Waves hello

I have ran out of oooomph - if any of you can lend me some I'd be most grateful

Sortinng out lodgers room- side of bed covered in some kinda fizzy pop debris goo - ergh
Need find a kettle there isn't one in the attic after all - doh
And looking at the duvet I prob need to order a new one as well - ho hum

Away back into the breach!

Lemon_Tree

i've lost mine so can't help out sorry!
i've been cleaning (bleugh) today, i've sorted out the tip that was the kitchen and pretty much sorted the living room. Only the bedroom to tackle, but i don't think i'm going to make it into there.
Been baking cakes, first batch is a little well cooked but i don't mind.

hey - well done on the baking - my oomph has gone - might be a bit hormonal

Shopped for 6quid in tesco

Got enough bread for 10 days - and some reduced cheese and meat - bread at 27p a loaf is your friend

Also got lots rolls and other bits and bobs all with stickers on yippee - our tescos shuts at 6pm on a sunday so there's usually lots of things reduced.

Need to find a kettle, duvet and not sure what else for lodger room - and then its sorted

Fly off early - but I have my lovely iphone so I am ok for catching up with folks, get to meet the new baby in the family tomorrow night I hope if it works out - I will get to meet baby Maya - odd not to see OH on mothers day he loves to be silly and we normally do lots of family stuff x

waves and hugs to all x

Away to inverness tomorrow for a couple days - bit annoyed as being concentrating on big scary loans and a stupid debt collecting agency called yesterday about 5 times - kids took messages (and me - I never answer hello to anyone asking for me by my sunday name I always take a message - to give me time to regroup)

Turns out the bill I am disputing htey have decided I am now not paying (untrue hence the dispute bit) and want me to sort it out asap or take me to court.

Its for just over a hundred quid - although the original amount was about an eighth of the amount the bill is now - grr grr grr. Its the principle of the thing, really - surely you can dispute things without folks deciding to take you to court?

Hope everyone is OK sorry for the tirrade.

Hugs to all - tomorrow like a small child I get to get excited on the aeroplane (36 seats) and fly to Inverness which will take just under an hour. Then I get to see trees, learn to write and get to perhaps catch up with OH for a few hours - x - and of course see the new baby - if I have babbled this before I am sorry - its just I am a bit excited - passport looked out - the Scottish mainland here I come.

I am also taking a big bag (suitcase sized) of samples down for my room mate at work who is coming down south too - have I packed the bag myself - um no - is there anything sharp in it - um no? - (checked it earlier its all fine) - but I am taking it on for him and its not mine - vfeels slightly dodgy - but all in the name of science I guess.

He owes me cos I am now away with my worldly goods overnight in a laptop bag as I cant have his samples and a bag myself - lol. x

Waving back! although you should have landed by now (and you shouldn't be flying over London!)

Hope you have a lovely trip!

I've cancelled your weight gain, I've lost 2lbs. See what a good friend I am to you.... hope you do the same for me if I have a hobnob incident.
