So I am completly up to date now DS has finally done his room - I have checked it and although not as clean as I would do it (don't they realise the hose on the dyson comes out and they can vacuum into corners?) It looks 200% better than it did on Monday, so really chuffed as the whole house now looks nice (I've been keeping it nice, NO-ONE is allowed to leave a cup out... OR ELSE! )
So I am going to sit and finish some bits off then watch Eastenders while hubby has a sleep... seems the only time I can work...

Evening everyone.
Have only done the dailies today. Ive been into town again to meet a friend for lunch and a shopping trip I will catch up with flying Ive missed Sat and Sun.
Mudbath Ive made a table of my gas and eleectric readings too.
Dusty Glad you have had a good holiday and love the photo of DS2.
Triker Hope you manage to get your freezer soon.
greenbee After sending my gas readings in I later got an online bill based on those. Bill isnt as much as I thought as Ive used it more with the cold weather. Im a bit in debit but that will be paid now Im not using as much. Have done the same with electric readings so waiting for that bill.
Soppie Hope your lovely dog is ok and well done on getting the kickboards finished. Looking forward to seeing the pics.0 -

Dusty - brilliant picture! And WDYTYA is ALWAYS worth watching - particularly whilst ironing - it'll make the ironing less troublesome! Hope the missing bag turns up v. soon.
SarahSh - Big hugs love but I'm sorry - HE feels trapped? What about you? Why should you have to get a job and take on the mortgage? He has a responsibility towards you and the children. Don't let him get away with not having to anything to help support you all financially.
Ooooh I really am a grumpy old woman tonight! Fortunately NN let me get a lot of stuff off my chest and really admired the finished kitchen floor.
Off to do home made fish and chips for tea and to see if there's anything worth watching on TV.I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

I never dare do that my bill doubled last time I did that!!! Though I did once get a £3000 combined gas/electric bill... that was fairly horrific!!!! It was much better when they realised I had actually paid most of it and they had been crediting my payment to a different account (their error not mine!).. bet that person got a shock!! lol I did still owe £800 though!! :eek: :eek: :eek: That is a usual quarterly bill in here :eek: :eek: :eek:LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -
Have constructed my last two wall units for the utility room, so the plan for tomorrow morning is to take the existing ones down (ALL of them), so that when I put the new ones up (with help from my dad hopefully...) I can put them back up higher, as there's currently a gap between the top of the cupboards and the ceiling and the ceilings aren't very high, so I'd rather have the space lower down.
Off to find some food and attempt to relax and have an early night!0 -
