    [FONT=&quot]harib0uk [/FONT][FONT=&quot]well done on paying off your credit card :)
    Welcome to the newbies, you'll love it here :j
    Tag, sexymouse, Beccatje and Boddy well done on completing your lists this morning.
    Soappie I hope you little dog has forgiven you :)
    g&b *hugs* for your LO and you
    Triker, hope you are okay and you can get everything sorted out at the Drs.
    Greenbee hope you are okay driving today and that the rain/snow/ice is not a problem.
    Valli hope you manage to get your marmalade day today.

    Wow I can't believe I have done everything on the list and it's not even 11am yet.. It's amazing what you can do when you have to keep warm..lol. Although it did help that a friend of mine rang me up at 6.30am for something or t'other, bit early for me though so I think she got short thrift..lol

    Have to stay in this afternoon as the gas engineer is coming to fix the heating then I can finally put my radiators back on and the house can be warm again, not just one area where the fan heater is. Can't wait - didn't realise how much I relied on the boiler..

    One thing I did notice is that it brought back some horrible memories of when I lived at home with mum as we didn't have any heating or hot water at all, and getting out of bed this morning brought it all rushing back. Not what I was wanting to happen maybe that's why I threw myself into the "flying" this morning.

    I think I will mop the living room before I go to work, may as well use the same water as I used in the kitchen(different mop) and that will be one thing off the list when the LR comes round(providing people take their shoes off before walking through there!!!)
    Not done anything else, feeling really achy now and have a headache behind my eyes, want to go to bed but can't!!!pouting now!!!

    Morning all

    Had more snow here, not too much but a few struggled to get off the road first thing. It's very foggy here now. Just had the boiler serviced so that is another job done. A & W gone off to school in their wellies again.

    Loaded the WM and put away some of the clothes from the w/e washing and drying bonanza. About to have a :coffee: and do a bit more, undecided what exactly!
