Got my bathroom/toilet done, so that's Thursday's list complete.
Throws in off the line before work, one dry and the other one almost so that's over the banister until I get home later.0 -

15 minute filing and shredding.
Just enjoying a peaceful half hour before DH gets home from work, DD1 gets home from her trip and DD2 gets up from her sleep.
Zoe...sounds like you're getting used to the idea and have a plan of action in place now. Good luck with telling Jase.
Hugs for you Pigpen....I'd take Greenbee's advice....a good blub is probably in order.
Will probably be busy later when everyone arrives back then I'm in work tonight so I'll probably be back on tomorrow at some point.0 -
I don't know why but I am feeling quite miserable all of a sudden, maybe withdrawal symptoms from not completing my tasks! OH not back for around hour
so no hugs until then MFW 2025 No. 7 £2331.07/£2700

Hi all, well exam results are in, my DD1 did ok, surprisingly not so good in some subjects
which she has been consistently great at, but did ok.
I can figure out what some of it means as she said some are half GCSE'S
, we need advice.
Maths will need redoing though, I'm guessing a D isn't a pass? No surprise there though tbh, it's her worst subject.
She's off to enrol at college on Tuesday so they can advise the best course of action for her.;)
Anyway managed to get some long outstanding letters posted, forms filled, paperwork semi sorted.
Cannot find my new cashcard which is a booger, I know it's in here somewhere.........
Hubby set off for the weekend, we've all had our hair cut and myself and DD1 had our eyebrows threaded. Really looks good and not too painful.:eek::D
Piggers whats up hun, need a chat, rant or a blub, you know where I am hun. xxxDFW Nerd 267. DEBT FREE 11.06.08

As per my facebook Mrs Beatson is a genius, and sometimes it is a very, very good thing not to be on top of your filing and shredding or I would not be able to prove the calls/faxes DH sent to the maladministering baskets at the CSA.
and I have coped with the stress on nothing naughtier than a cup or seven f black coffee. Go me.
New bathroom emptied of plaster board etc, sawdust henryed, and the new suite hauled upstairs by me and my ever helpful 6yo. It is going to be lovely eventually.'If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need' Marcus Tullius Cicero0 -
Well done to dusty's DS1, and pen-pen's DD, also Triker's DD on their exam results!
Triker - interesting that she's underperformed in some subjects - the school can access a breakdown of the marks, and may well query some of them if they are really out of line. D for maths is a pass, only U is a fail, but most follow on education or jobs ask for a minimum of 5 GCSE's at A-C grade, including Maths and English. My DD got D having taken Higher maths, then retook at Foundation Level in November and got her C.
hex - sounds like you need to bake bread, take up pottery, or go dig the veg patch.:D
ajmoney - virtual hug, chocolate and trashy mag - you'll soon feel better!
pigpen - rant if you want, we all love you. Or if you think it would be better for you *brisk voice* Get a grip woman!!
Started this post to say that I have done the bathroom and the main bedroom...
WEDNESDAY Main Bedroom Done!!!:D:D:D
THURSDAY Bathroom Done!!:D:D:D
