Carry on Questing

Morning all,

er, ok it's actually afternoon.

Cant believe the word for 'do as you likey' (rhymes but begins with a 'p' for those who havent heard the term before ) got edited out.

You probably thought I was being rude

Big hug for makeup today (( :A))


Having been dry for over a week the 2 or 3 Gordons I had last night completely wiped me out & I fell asleep on the sofa as planned

I'm coping fine with being alone & in fact, just the knowledge that " ...I'm free to what I want, any old time ..." - loving the Soup Dragons :cool: is very liberating :j.

The fact that my place is a shockingly messy & grimy tip & that it's pouring with rain means I'm not leaving the house today so it should be another NSD.

Have stripped the beds & the second load of washing is on, while the first dries on the radiators.

I had a delicious feast of a bacon & mushroom sarnie for brunch & now have no bread left which is a good thing as I've been sneaking back to my old habit of munching peanut butter sarnies late at night .

I weighed in this morning & havent lost any weight, but havent gained any either so that's ok, just need to be really careful & remember that treats are now a once a week thing rather than once a day & that any treat must be counteracted by a sacrifice elsewhere .


I have so much to do so will list in the next post & then report back when each task is completed ...

Welcome to today's britain.

Lula-Hula

Hmmm,

tidying my room has taken a lot longer than I thought it would. I have so much annoying bitty stuff that I want to chuck out but cant for sentimental reasons :rolleyes:.

This means I spent ages on that & then did the Just Dance which was great fun when I got to choose all the tunes & then ran out of time to do the rest of the chores.

Tomorrow I need to do another wash, all the ironing, clean the kitchen & the bathroom, mop the floors, tidy her room _pale_ hoover in there & the living room, find somewhere to put all the recyling & charity shop stuff that's cluttering up the hall, polish school shoes AND do some food shopping

It has however, been a NSD - number 9 in fact

I received a letter from Crapital One today, saying that they had my letter about closing my account & how sorry they were

Idiots - it was you that said it had to be closed :rolleyes:. They also asked me to destroy & return the card.

Idiots - the destroyed & expired card was in the envelope with the letter saying I was closing my account, at your request :rolleyes:

Apparently I may well receive mail & credit card cheques for another 2 months

Idiots - do you really think I'll fall for that one :rolleyes:

If I decide I want another CC in the future, they hope I'll think of them, awwww

Idiots - of course I'll think of them ; their incompetence at dealing with the simplest of tasks, their erroneous reasons for stopping my account & most of all their disgusting, unwarranted, money grabbing decision to attempt to hike the interest on my card :mad:

Sven Lagerberg - you are an IDIOT, incompetent, clearly have no concept of 'customer service' & have a really stupid name, bye bye

He, he :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Lula and Gordon have a rant :rotfl::rotfl:

Lula-Hula

Just Lula now

Gordon had to go back to his shelf & wont be out again until next weekend, he makes me want to eat mini cheddars, he's a very bad influence, naughty Gordon

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:- and I thought it was just me left on the shelf :rolleyes:

Lula-Hula

Oh dear, I am exhausted

Was up at 9 to complete the weekend's chores & task list, was in Waitrose by 10.30 & spent £27.07 in there & also got my free mini croissants to taste & report on . I received another £2 coin in my change so that's gone in the kitty :j Discovered that there are no hair dyes at all in there :eek: & this being an emergency situation had to whizz up to Tatco which annoyed me somewhat but could not be avoided. Scythed my way through all the families out for a days entertainment :rolleyes: & was in & out so quick I even scared myself :rotfl:.

Next stop was the reycling point to offload all the stuff in the boot & then home to sort my hair out .

The carpet dumped by the P.I.K.E.Y's is still there but I'm not surprised :rolleyes: & if it's still there when I get back from work on monday I will be moaning again

Cleaned the bathroom, the kitchen, mopped the floors, hoovered the rugs & then took a deep breath & ventured into DDs room _pale_.

I could feel my temper starting to boil so decided on a new tactic; shove anything that is on the floor inot a bag & if she doesnt reclaim it within 2 days (wednesday is dustbin day) out it goes. I confess that I will not be throwing out the DS but it will be removed until further notice.

I gathered, socks , knickers , grapes , chewing gum :mad: homework :mad:, cards, books, empty crisp packets & various other bits off the floor. I have done asking, moaning, pleading, shouting, seething, privilege removal & downright maniacal yelling. All to no avail. This is war & I will win. She wants her room decorated & I am in the second year of refusal based on the state of it. At this rate she will still be sleeping in the little pink palace when she's 18 :rotfl:.

Oh sheet, I've just realised that I have another 2 weeks until the end of the month, so £40.53 left for groceries & household items, that could be interesting :think:.

I must now take the scraps out to the compost bin & then think about making some soup for tea. No doubt DD will be ravenous, exhausted & very very grumpy :rolleyes:

Lula-Hula

Phew, I got all my chores bar the ironing done & also managed to make soup to feed the ravenous one on her return.

She was shattered & very moany - no idea where she gets that from :whistle:but had a good time :j. Wasnt overimpressed with the fire alarm going off or the loud music everywhere but gave me the most enormous hug & said she was really glad to be home .

Within 5 minutes the bathroom was under siege & her case was spilling out everywhere. I showed her the bag of stuff I'd collected from the floor & she reckons she'll be dealing with it tomorrow ... yeh :rolleyes:

It's nice to have the place looking so clean & tidy so I feel that I've achieved a lot this weekend & am ready for the week ahead ...

Morning Lula,

Sounds like you have had a fantastic weekend. Well done on the de-cluttering and tidying you have every right to feel proud of yourself.

Tea
