  • It's grey here and threatening rain. I've finally got back from town, after wasting £2.50 on parking. I wanted to prove to myself that I could get to North Street car park (in the town centre) since I'd never driven there myself before. So I got there, paid for 2 hours and was done in under 1/2 hour. :doh:It didn't ever occur to me to just park at Tesco for free. Then again, that wouldn't have been a challenge. :D

    Going into town with James never happened, we'll have to do it tomorrow instead. He was still sleeping when I got up there (he hadn't been able to get any sleep the night before) and it was getting a bit late so I just went on my own to get my stuff done. I'll have to go and update my diary in a sec to say I've done nearly all my jobs. All I've got left is to get some more work done on an essay. Feel free to kick my bum about it. :D

    Me, my dad and my grandparents are off to an Indian restaurant later since I'm going back on Sun. Hopefully we'll get back in time for me to get some of the essay done before bed. I'd betting go do the diary now. Be back in a bit.

    I thought everyone on here knew about the flylady

    http://www.flylady.com/ - her main page

    She is a lady who lived in Chaos(can't have anyone over syndrome for many years till she worked out that she could anything for 15 minutes and that is how she gained control of her "house and her Life

    And this was the link I wanted to find for Snags http://www.flylady.com/pages/FlyingLessons_crisiscleaning.asp

    I am sure some people think she is awful but reading her book wasa relevation to me! :o:o:o
