Am getting it delivered tomorrow before 1pm so I may even clear the ironing pile as I will want to use the new toy!! Just emailed Dh at work, he will get it when he gets in..nice surprise to find out his wifey has been spending on his credit card again!! Heheheehe!!

On a mission today, so got up early and managed to do my flying.
I`m hoping to do a bit more pottering in the garden today as it looks like a sunny day and also tackle the mountain of ironing that`s built up over the holidays.:eek::eek::eek:

morning :hello:
i did had a bit better sleep last night :j - might have to do with the sun coming out more and more (makes me feel happier) or the fact that dh and I had a good chat about our current situation and are going to change it :rolleyes:
i am in again!! thanks toots and pigpen :kisses3:
Mudders ~~swift positive healing vibes~~ to your dad!!!
well, dh is on a course this week which means he's out of the house during the day (instead of nights) which is a bit strange :rolleyes:
he got up really early (4.30) too!
dinner is ready- i've put the sc on over night with bolognese, just spaghetti and voila!
but it's somehow easier with dh not being home - because i can actually do the jobs i chose when and what instead of having to tiptoe around because he's asleep.
so bed is made, i've put all the washing away and the dirty is in the basket :j
kids will be back at nursery this week!!! not today though but start tmrw (they go only 3 days) - dd is deffinitly over her chickenpox (they have all covered over now) - and ds is STILL not showing any signs!?!? should he have it by now?!?!?!?!?!? can he go tmrw?????

Morning everyone!
Well I'm very relieved that I didn't get a call for supply this morning as I had a terrible night's sleep. Didn't take my hayfever tablet yesterday as I didn't think it was affecting me, but after OH cut all of the lawns, it's left me with a scratchy feeling throat, which makes me cough, plus a headache. Have taken a tablet now, and hope it improves, but I was up half the night downstairs in the cold (so as not to wake OH with my coughing), so I'm shattered.
Have pottered around this morning and have dressed in my work clothes in case. Have just been going through a box in the living room which I thought was OH's and discovered that it was actually my prize from the lovefoodhatewaste competition that I won. Have just put all of the bits away (a funky water bottle that has a central iceblock to keep your drinks cold, 2 icepacks which are now in the freezer and a small vacuum flask).
Off to put the towels in the wash now as they should be done this morning in case I get called for this avo, and will get on with my list in a minute.
Anyone fancy a HHC 9.15-9.45?
