    Not read through yet, but have finished kitchen, and also vacuumed all downstairs (just because the legs of the chairs leave bits of fluff on the hall carpet when I move them out of the kitchen to do the floor!)

    About to take DS1, and DS2 and his friend downtown. DD much better today thank goodness.

    Sunshine here!

    christmas tree.

    Thanks quote] :xmastree: As with Juliff, this is just in case, I'm sure you have already been spotted by pigpen. Under all the smilies is the word "more," click on that and some extra ones pop up. If you maximise that, you can see where the Christmas tree is. Welcome to the thread, I'm sure you will love it here.

    Welcome to all other newbies, especially Casleigh. As everyone else has said, babysteps, but we will all give you a :T :j :kisses3: :dance: :grouphug: _party_ for everything you manage to do!

    LOL :rotfl: This happened to me last week. A friend sent a text to our HOME phone at 7am, and I was in a really deep sleep so everytime it rang I woke up enough to get up just as it stopped ringing. This happened every half an hour til 10am when I was already awake and answered it!
    Let me know what you think of I Am Legend. It's quite good, has Will Smith in it so always a winner! I would rewrite the ending personally, I wondered if thier budget ran out by the time they got to the ending. :cool:
    [quote valli ? please explain ...or are you puttingnon 'Jack and the Beanstalk? quote]
    This made me laugh so much :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: What is going on!!!
    I got up at 10:30 and have been catching up on the thread and watching This Morning since then. Oops! I'd better go and do something. My throat and nose feels like it's lined with glue, so imagine this post is written in a croaky voice! I feel quite good tho, I'm sleeping better (last Thurs/Fri night hardly got any sleep) so feel quite perky! :D
    Re banking - It was what Nicki said. They were showing the transactions due to come out today on our account yesterday IYSWIM. DH is going to put his wages from today straight into the bank so hopefully they won't charge us. Thanks everyone who got in touch. Glad it's not just me that gets confused by AandL.:o

    Okay i've had a cracking morning. Two loads of washing on the line. 2 boxes of books ready to take to the charity shop as I need to face the fact that i'll never get round to putting them on Ebay. A huge bag of rubbish sorted from my supposed dining room otherwise known as the dumping ground. I've got some new furniture arriving for the lounge so need to move the dining table back into the dining room. This is just the deadline I needed to force me to get sorted.

    I've had two phonecalls offering me different jobs this morning so it doesn't look like my sabattical is going to last very long.
