    Afternoon

    One load of washing sulking on the line.
    All the living room and stairs stuff is done - Toots :)

    Also put up the new curtains in the back bedroom.

    Took the dog out.

    Cooking lunch now.

    Am in a terrible evil unhappy mood. According to DD1 I just need to decide to stop being miserable. Now, why didn't I think of that? Who knew it was so easy?

    Tuesdays list - COMPLETE :j :j

    I've also done some washing and ironing. The new sofa has come so I've unpacked that and put the wrapping into the car ready for another trip to the tip. DD has swimming this evening and then I must menu plan and sort out a shopping list ready for Thursday.

    Time for lunch.

    embb yes, just chuck it in, you might need less stock than what you would use if it was cooking uncovered. Thank you :)
    Natty68 hope you feel better soon, I'd definately consider stopping driving, not worth risking yours or anyone elses life.

    Triker/nicki/anyone else doing the challenge with us, I spent nothing yesterday (apart from car parking at hospital, not much choice as I needed to go) and wasted nothing :)

    Well that's one question done, another started written in rough with notes on what to type out. Only 3 questions but all of course multiple parts. Not used to word limits, urgh, gastly things. Stopped for some lunch, forgot it was pancake day and did scrambled eggs with cheese (the cheese that went out of date about a month ago but was fine) on toast for DP and I. So will do the kids pancakes and we'll probably have something else when he's back from the car club.

    Spoke to LL last night, sorted us getting trees cropped but she agreed not to remove them, they give us the privacy we need. She's also agreed with me about the drive, tarmac wouldn't look nice at all.

    Right, cuppas empty so that means back to work :( catch up with you all later.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

  • Afternoon everyone clap.gif - was up early as DD1 wet the bed - most unlike her - she says she was dreaming about swimming!! We have had some problems with her behaviour lately and she kicked off last night so maybe related?? Just got back from work so ready to go now after a coffee1.gif

    One bad flylady reporting in!, I so know I won't get anything done today, it has been one of those days and it is still early afternoon.

    Left the house at silly o'clock to drive to Sheffield, got caught up in 1 break down in the road works, and 1 accident. (did feed the cats and empty DW before I left)

    Visited customer how only needed advise which I could have given over the phone to save the long drive there and back!! she was full of apologies.

    Natty good for seeing the Doctor, now rest up and take care

    Hex happy Birthday

    AnW'smum I am totally lost on SW1 to SW4, but I guess you know which is which, may be next time we can have a family tree flow diagram!

    Michelle :wave:

    Rach I have just been sent by HM the new tax disc for next year, so if you want to tell me via pm what your current tax code if I will / should be able to tell you what your code for the new tax year 09/10 should be, but bear in mind there is a budget in May or is it April and generally they alter things such as NI yet again.

    Back later folks

    All those at are ill or with aches and pains please rest up and takecare.
