Woohoo tellys here :j :j
I've managed to assemble the stand and fit the tv myself so far, now just waiting for it to search for its channels
I did rearrange the furniture this morning but I'm not happy with it so it will all be going back how it was before 

At least now I can go out this afternoon if I want to although the footie starts in an hour so I may stay in instead and order food online

I did mine online today - couldn't face the thought of the supermarket today!!Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes. (Maud Van de Venne)Life begins at the end of your comfort zone (Neale Donald Walsch)0

I just about salvaged some of that free bet that went wrong the other day, it was basically a £75 offer that needed to be bet through 3 times, so should have ended up with roughly £50 profit; I messed up bigtime but managed to end up with £20 profit, I was lucky to get anything out of it in the end, but have learnt a lesson

And at least you came away with a profit, rather than messing it up with a resultant loss!

Finally made it on here today, its been a bit hectic :rolleyes:

I went to a friends house last night and had a lovely time, then the plan was that this morning I would get up and do some housework before meeting ds at 10.30 and taking him to a party. Unfortunately, for the second night running, I had a bad stomach
I didn't drink last night as I was driving, and I only ate a few crisps and a couple of cocktail sausages, but I woke up at 4.30 this morning with really bad stomach cramps. Cue 20 minutes in the bathroom before I fell asleep again. My sister phoned this morning at 9.45 and luckily woke me up or I would never have got to meet ds in time 
I leapt out of bed, quickly got ready and met him, then came home, found a pressie for the party, wrapped it, got ds changed and ready, went to the party, I stayed there as ds has history of meltdowns at parties but today he was very well behaved :j From there we went to Tesco as the order I did yesterday just wouldn't go through for some reason and I got fed up of trying in the end :rolleyes:, £50 later on food and £27 on petrol and a boot full of shopping we made it home. I have spent the last hour and a half blitzing the flat like mad as a friend from work said he'll try and pop round to help me move the old tv down to the garage.
Everywhere is looking tidy now, just the ironing still to do, oh and inner to start thinking about :rolleyes: :rolleyes: This is the first time I've sat down today and I'm shattered, just relaised I have only eaten 2 biscuits so far today, not good
Off to make some toast

A nice lazy inset day for me today, then I went to collect ds from school only to find him with a scarlet face and complaining of a headache. Got home and took his temperature (38.9 :eek:), gave him some calpol and he flopped on the sofa. 5 minutes later he threw up all over my new sofa


He was sick some more before going to bed and he's been fast asleep for the last half an hour
Looks like a day off school for me tomorrow then :rolleyes: Mortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000
