  • Hey folks
    Hope our Pigpen is okay, I always worry when she goes MIA!

    This morning I woke up feeling awful, I'm full of cold (Valli I sympathise with your DD) but dosed up on cold medicine and painkillers i'll get through the day (4 hour coach journey this afternoon argggg).

    So far have done laundry, bought drinks and magazines for the coach, tidied the bedroom a bit, written packing list, checked uni emails (still nothing). Got to finish packing and sort the laundry before I go. Don't have the energy to walk up to uni or anything like that.

    Love to everyone - Toots it might be Monday before I get a chance to read the PM i am eagerly awaiting

  • Haven't caught up, again, been and bought a new printer....£60 with extra ink.....the cheapest ink I could find for old printer was £60 and the new printer is a 3 in 1 so hope it's ok!!!!

    DD's bedding now in TD and I've lost my phone....have text it from the puter but can't hear it, so either bettery dead or DD has put it somewhere I can't hear it!!!
    Have taken house apart and made quite a bit of mess....bed has been made and remade 3 times!!!
    Will continue to look and hopefully tidy as I'm looking rather than making more mess....WILL NOT play with new printer till phone is found and at LEAST dailies done........catch you all later xx

    Morning everyone - been busy and AWOL. Just waiting to go into a meeting so will catch up fully later. I did manage to empty and fill the DW this morning and put the white bedding in the WM but really need to get on when I get home.

    Hugs for Mrs B, fingers crossed for Rach and Soappie, Congratulations Quillion, and good luck Zoelikesjam.

    Just noticed that Quidco have started doing 1% cashback on Asda grocery orders even for repeat orders which may be of use to someone?

    Pigpen - Hope you and yours are all ok and that you have a flu buddy to get in supplies.

    a what?.. eh?? lol..

    We have been to tesco.. cupboards are stocked.. kids are at school so I have peace what more does a girl need? .. oh... maybe an OH who isn't snot filled lol.. poor creature is wilted.

    Honestly it is no worse than an average cold..

    Todays list is up.. I had a jaunt to high school with DS3 last night and he was most impressed so hopefully we can persuade him to go there rather than the same one the other boys went to.. I think it is not the right option for him.. so we shall wee when we have visited the other one a week on wednesday.

    The children have been little gits all week and I am on the verge of squishing their heads...

    Debt-free 21/12/09 and determined to stay that way - still DF 09/10/17
  • Great to hear from you Pigpen - we were all getting worried for you!

    In my HHC (more like 40 mins!): recycling bins emptied, dining table de-crumbed, dishwasher emptied, pots from last night washed up, breakfast cleared away, raspberry jelly made, stuff tidied up, postbox emptied, junk mail binned, general S&S in the kitchen.

    Phew. Now I have a cuppa, and I must start my studies. Will firmly close down Flylady window, so I'm not tempted to keep peeking.

    So long for now, Ladies...
