    Hi ladies I'm back :D

    Had a great day and a relaxing holiday afterwards. have spent the day washing and shopping. Need to clean the fridge before I can put stuff away. Will try and fly the rest of the week but I still have 3 suitcases to unpack and am back at work tomorrow.

    In the mean time this is what we did

    Oh and the smurfs...Dusty's and G&B's look really grumpy and that's not an adjective I'd use for either of them. Are they the same smurf? My favourite is hex's...the gardner :D

    Thanks - but it is Sloppy smurf and he is carting about smelly stuff. It seemed apt last week!

    End of the holidays today, with the boys back to school in the morning. Bags, uniform and all ready. Need to start getting up early again :cool:.

    Off to clear the kitchen yet again.......

    Soappie - glad DD is more positive this morning. There is a wonderful man out there waiting for her I'm sure

    Thank you and she's more positive this evening. So she's on the mend. She'll have her ups and downs but I think she's come to terms with the fact he's not the man for her.

    Greenbee - hope you have fun at your leaving do

    Poohbear - the 19, 20 and 22 year olds - you'd be surprised if you did some judicious and possibly illegal advertising ;):D :rotfl:

    Mrs Kazm - you all look stunning in those pictures - congraluations on your wedding. Did it all go smoothly in the end?

    Had the hibrow council bods round this afternoon. But the news was not as good as I hoped it would be but hey, I can cope. Have started to disseminate information but the reaction is not good. am awaiting flak....

    We have had heavy, heavy rain for the last 3 hours. It's gloomy, wet and chilly. But, instead of putting the heating on, I've put a beef stew on low in the oven - it's just the night for stew and mash. And the heat from the oven is slowly permiating itself around the place.

    Have also bottomed out my 'landing' and my bedroom so I shall award myself a star shortly.

    (((pooh bear))) - have you been onto the DFW boards? You might get more detailed help on how to cut your spends or up your income. I do mystery shopping and on line surveys when I can xx

    Thank you for your suggestions. I have to confess that I am DFW no 429 and have more debt than when I started but now have a part barn conversion (which DH has done whilst not working) which we wouldn't have without MSE. I will go back on the DFW boards to see what else we can do.

    I am on benefits and am not able to do mystery shopping and surveys as I am not well enough to do them. I am struggling to list my books on Amazon. And haven't listed on ebay for months. I really need DSs to get more serious about helping me list things.
