    Why has the dishwasher decided not to wash the stuff on the bottom level properly?? :mad:

    ETA... solved that one... the bottom arm had come off, so I've put it back, and I'll clean the filters and do the washing up...

    Children at school, dogs walked and i'm off to see a friend for an hour. Have a stinking cold so probably won't do much today but want to do a washing load, vacuum all downstairs and s/s master bedroom. That's it from me today.

    Massive hugs to you all xxxxxx

    Back from Asda... ended up spending more than I planned on groceries (went in for cordial & spread, came out with frozen veg, 3 bottles of cordial, spread, pesto, 4 jars of chutney as they were on offer and I know they will get used, 2 packets of burgers and some burger buns :o My freezer is rather full now...) but got 2 pairs of jeans. After much rummaging I managed to find 2 pairs that are dark, boot cut (but not that horrible "I'm wearing an 8-man tent on each leg" bootcut :rotfl: ) and only £12 each. :D

    Thanks JO for the heads up about New Look with jeans...but it would have cost me £3.20 in busfare to get there and I would have had to make the most of the bus ticket which would mean a trip to Primark, Wilkinsons, Superdrug, Boots... you get the idea? :o:rotfl::rotfl: When I drop a size or two (whats a size 18/20 to a 16? :confused: ) then I'm planning on starting to shop in huge New Look in town as I'm not impressed with their larger size range, plus I actually hate clothes shopping but in there its :drool: :rotfl:

    Right, sort my list out (if its gone its done... )

    Morning All :wave:

    Hope everyone is well and reasonably chirpy today. I overdid things yesterday, and did go straight to bed after my last post at 8.17pm, and went straight to sleep. I really struggled to wake up at 7am this morning even with my wake up light which normally really helps. :rolleyes:

    So this morning I have :
    tidied up the kitchen,
    cleaned the woks,
    done the school run,
    walked the dog, and
    caught up with the thread

    Doesn't look so bad written down! :D

    I'm going to make some brunch now, and think about what I can do that doesn't take up too much energy. ;)

    I will join you Holly for at least part of it. Am feeling really tired and lightheaded so not sure how much I will get done, but need to do something!
