Magnificent Monday ~ Living room, Hall, Stairs and Porch![FONT="] All done:j (including the extras
).
Star please Toots
.
I have finally made the understairs cupboard less cluttered
.
As our CD's are all pretty tidy, I gave the wee unit next to laptop table a wee look through....ditched an old phone book and also some things that I was hoping to sell on ebay but just never did (low value stuff!). Also hung the washing outside, even though I had already hung it up indoors, as it is brighter now!
Back is not so good and DS is now screaming because I won't let him play with the LiveBox :mad::mad:.
Better get some lunch.
See you all tomorrow for some more flying, although will be an afternoon job (and less strenuous hopefully!....that cupboard is an awkward long space and not good for moving around in!).

Hi all, been resting, resting and resting some more, promise.
I've managed to finally organise my many, many favourites into folders on my computer. The 2 biggest folders are recipes and bargains.:rotfl:
Don't feel as bad as yesterday but still very tired, ah well, I'll just keep taking it easy.
Rosepink, I meant to say that panic attack you suffered from sounded awful, hugs hun, that must really take it out of you.:grouphug:
Ooh for those not on my facebook, I finally managed to name my chickens yesterday. One of the 'girls' is definitely a boy so I've named them....

Why not ask the school - presumably your entitlement to Free School Meals can be backdated - failing that contact your county council and enquire there - (well that's what happens in Valliland...)
And to top it all off, tax credits have stuffed up!!! My award notice has not been delivered yet, and kids are back to school tomorrow! I was told that their names would be on the list for free school meals tomorrow and now I get told that their names are not on the list!!! Because tax credits cant send info out! And they are refusing to email it to me, which would have sorted the problem out:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:. Thankfully I have £20 at my mum;s for emergencies, so will have to use that to pay for the school meals this week. Am blooming furious!!!
(((hugs)))IM SORRY - RANT ALERT!!!
Im having the worst day ive had for a long time!
Sorry just had to let it out and tell someone. xx
