    Its all gone a bit pete tong, the stove is still smoking. He's toddled off now to try and get a small flexible brush as the soot is trapped near the bottom and as the pipe goes in the wall then up its all a bit awkward!!!

    Morning folks. The stove lit last night so we were all nice n cosy. Glad that job is out of the way, what a messy job!
    Jobs for today include washing as usual. Its dry today so should be able to get it all sorted. Must look for the harness that goes with the strimmer. Mr T is going to give DS1 a lesson in strimming but its so wild here you need the mask gloves etc. Will be great if he can manage it as the strimmer is quite heavy and Mr T is always stuck for time to get these jobs done.
    Checked online banking all ok and hope to make another payment of barclaycard this week. Cant wait to get rid of that, so Im trying to pay off more than the snowball calculator in a bid to get below £4000 currently at £4427 without the added interest so must keep it in sight.
    Dinner tonight is leftover shepherds pie for us and something with sausages for the boys. Got a text from DD who arrived in Dingle last night, Im sure she'll have a lovely time. Funny how the house feels different when your missing one.
    Shaun our tooth fairy rate is €2 which is a big improvement on the sixpence I used to get:rotfl: Showing my age now:o

    Well :rolleyes: so much for just look for the harness for the strimmer !!!!!!

    4 hours later we have now cleared up the whold b****y caravan as it was full of tools, bits of everything etc and took an age to sort out. No harness:confused: On to chicken shed which we also cleared out and found the harness:T Thankfully, have also got rid of loads of carboard to be recycled into back of my car and rubbish. (That'll smell lovely tomorrow).
    We cleared outside the wood shed and made it all tidy.

    That is myself and DS1 with a smidgin of help from DS2!!! Anyway come in with washing almost dry and made sausage and mash for boys.
    Mr T not home yet he'll get a huge surprise as the caravan was a disaster zone before.

    My back is killing me now think Ive overdone things (normal for me, I put it off for ages then do the whole lot in one hit) Had back problems a couple of years back and it still gives me jip now and then. Need to go walk the doggy and get a bath that should loosen it up a bit. Oh feels great to get it done but I hurt now.

    Well you have been a busy bee today. I bet it feels great getting all that done though. I think OH is in debt to you now for doing all these horrible jobs! Enjoy your bath.

    Hi folks, back is not too bad to be honest. A bit stiff but ok. Had to go grocery shopping today and sort out some insurance, so not as busy as yesterday. Mr T had a right surprise and couldn't believe we'd done so much so Im having a deserved sit this afternoon.
    Weather started off really horrible but has cleared up now and the sun is shining.
    Just paid another wodge of Barclaycard its coming down well awaiting next weeks statement to see the interest damage.
    Grocery today came to around €60 not too bad as there were a few meat whoopsies and fruit too. So a few meals in there and just top up basics with the rest.
    HM pizza for tea tonight must get some pineapples out of the freezer, ( I open a tin then put in freezer bags enough for two pizza's);)
    Hope everyone is having a good day. Off to catch up on the diaries now with a cuppa:T

    Morning peeps. It poured with rain here last night and then the fire alarm decided it was time the battery needed changing 3AM:eek: Drove me nuts so was awake for ages. Will sort that this morning. Feeling a bit tired now. Jobs today include finding out about company number for Mr T. He orders some materials from a supplier and enquired about an account, they said he cant have an account until he has a co number!!! So thats my job today. Bit weird as he has been having stuff from them for 12 months and paying up front so dont know why he needs a number:confused:.

    Sort out yet more washing and fly around with hoover, bit of a cleaning day today as weather looks yukky.

    DD text and is having a lovely time with her friend and their family so thats good but we miss having her around.

    Have a good day everyone.
