  • Well how am I meant to catch up with the thread, fly AND work full time? Think something will have to go.... wish I could afford to give up the job :D

    Not tutoring this evening so after meeting at school went to the gym for an hour, had something to eat and then made a couple of calls. Managed to do a few things off my own list (see below) and kitchen and dining area not too bad so hope HCC will get me there, although promised myself will do the food cupboard.
    15 tasks for this week
    [STRIKE]
    1. sort out car insurance x 2
    [/STRIKE]
    2. put stuff in loft
    3. sort out magazines
    4. sock drawer
    5. menu plan for this week
    6. email sis
    7. sew buttons on dress and mend cardigan and t-shirt
    8. PM Serena re trip
    9. menu plan
    10. sort out grant application
    [STRIKE]

    12. send thank you card
    13. card to DD
    14. update finances spreadsheet
    [/STRIKE]
    15. get fuse for strimmer

    Haven't managed to catch up with the whole thread - got as far as p6 but thanks Cally-C for scarifying info. Sounds like if I want a nice lawn I'm going to have to work at it a bit harder than I thought.

    I would love to be able to send individual messages to people but not sure where I would find the time so would like to send positive vibes to all those who need them, and for whatever reason.

    HCC 8pm-8.30pm anyone?

    Yey don't have to go out again today now.

    Came home and front garden had 2-3" of lying water due to rain and old drains - actually it stink of drains out there. I know we are going to have to get something done but dread to think of the cost - just the phrase drain work sounds expensive!

    Just giving DS3 his pudding and then time to get him to bed, quick list update first.

    Teehee thanks for clearing that up, I was trying to count the exclamation marks and then thinking of all the naughty words I know and trying to work out what you could be doing with seedlings and all sorts.

    Have given table a quick wipe over, but I've run out of stardrops :eek: apparently boyf has been using it instead of washing up liquid - 'well it works quicker and smells nicer' :confused: Great, but he could have told me he had used the last of it. Town tomorrow for some retail therapy after exam so will have to hunt some down again. Yet another thing to add to the list.

    Have done some washing up. Kitchen is starting to look better now. There is still a mountain of stuff on the cooker including a blackened oven tray that had some of DH's spillage on it. He forgot he'd spilt anything and so last time he put the oven on the place was full of smoke for about an hour! Our eyes were streaming!
    I've really got to sort it out. Not now tho.
