this is a nice site too

I am making bags and matching purses, tealight holders, jar gifts like bake a cake, pots of gold, a couple of crossstitches, some sockmonkeys and a few other bits x x x

Thanks for nice get wells for Pip, he is doing OK. I really dont think he likes the warm. Last time he had a little fit and now he is sicky.

pipsmum - if he gets too hot just strip him off completely and lie him on a towel to cool down. Babies aren't good at regulating their temperatures and wearing a nappy is like sitting in a plastic bag, cool baths are fun too!

oooh, I also replied to OU. Was invited to be a course tester for a new course and they just sent the details through. Its quite well paid so have sent the relevant completed forms back. Means a bit of extra study in the coming year but nothing I cant handle (Hah!)

Also checked my OU page and my registrations have all gone through for my 09-10 courses which means must have been granted the financial award! Will def claim for a new computer this year though as mine is falling to bits at home and not working well at all.

NewLeaf_2

I hung my wash out

Pips_Mum

Its a small thing but will make a difference Newleaf, thats what this threads all about.:T

Sophiesmum - He is just in his nappy, and im making sure he is having plenty to drink. Good tip to try the towel though so thanks x x:A

Angel - Yay to OU reward!:j

I am trying to batch cook some Lasagnes for tea tonight and freezer, notice the word "trying" !!! :rotfl::rotfl:

Hello mateys!!!
Sorry I haven’t been in touch, its all been a bit of a mare of a weeks, there is an issue with the lease on the flat which is preventing us from exchanging, but between me and the seller we are trying to get it sorted asap…fingers crossed ill chase it up next week.

If anyone can help actually, the Woolwich mortgage offer is dependent on there being a ‘mortgage protection clause’ in the lease…..but it is an unusual shared ownership lease and don’t seem to be one….so anyways….waiting on solicitor trying to get it…..the flat may fall through if Woolwich don’t agree to the mortgage….awaiting solicitor getting back to me whilst im on nights shifts……I am skint totally with all the costs and things ive been a bit silly with spending lately. Going to have to try sort things out! Bad me!! Its just mad till I move in.
Ignore my debt thing…its totally poo now…10k in debt plus student loan and more…..but I am determined to get things on track….

Got some subway vouchers to get dinner with tonight at work….and use up bits and bobs…..

How is everyone else? PM me guys if you want to proper catch up.im so sorry I haven’t been on here.

Ooh….i just got my sub of the day 1.99 and they gave me a free drink for being in the job!! Result!!
