5 OS Pleasures in your Day Today part 2

newlywed

Hi all,

1. Confessed to making a stuff up at work and they were fine about it. Thankfully!
2. Borrowing slimming world books from a workmate and the library - works out much cheaper than buying the books
3. Managing to get pretty much everything I needed in Sainsbugs so now have £9 left till next friday which should be enough for nanas and milk (with a bit of creative meal planning ) and I even sneaked half price cherries into my basket too!
4. Having to stretch the food these last few weeks has reminded me how much I have lost my grocery budget focus will try harder next month
5. Um.... tomorrow is Friday!

newbies - welcome to the thread
ladyhawk - ooh I say! he's not a buyer is he?
frith - so glad to hear the good news about Ben
CCP - welcome back! sorry to hear it wasn't all that good but I'm sure you'll find somewhere better to go next year - how about Latitude?

1) After finishing the work pack from hell yesterday today has been very quiet
2) I've finally got to instruction manual out for the heating and hot water and made some adjustments - took all of 10 mins...hopefully that should help with the bills
3) I found some old pension paperwork a couple of weeks ago and got around to ringing them up today....they owe me approx £500 :T
4) Lovely sunny evening - so the washing is out on the line
5) Fantastic sausages for dinner
6) Freebie sarnies at work left over from a working lunch
7) NSD
8) The flowers my friend sent last Friday are still looking beautiful :j



Hopefully you all had a good day

My 5 for today:

1 - Went on a lovely long walk down to the beach and past all the cute fishermans houses.
2 - Walked further than I have managed in weeks due to severe back pain.
3 - Discovered we have a Home Bargains here!
4 - Found out my dad will be coming to stay next week. And the lovely fella is taking hubby and I out for dinner.
5 - Not OS or MS but I got an iPhone 4 today. I was due an upgrade.

Evening

Pleasures for today:
1. Free lunch at work today as someone is leaving the company after 22 years:eek:. Will be very sad to see her go but know she is really looking forward to her new life of working part-time and looking after her new granddaughter.
2. Was lovely to catch up with lots of people over lunch and whilst we girls did the washing up.
3. My parents were involved in a car crash today which is not a pleasure. The pleasure is they are both ok if a little shaken and the car should be ok after a few repairs.
4. DD has volunteered to be a young guide leader at a Rainbow unit, am a proud mummy. She is now growing up so fast doesn't seem five minutes since she was a rainbow.
5. Whilst DD was helping at guides I went for a 8 mile power walk, trying to keep my training up ready for the sunwalk next month.

Hugs to all who need them

Tealady - sorry to hear about your parents' accident but glad they are OK.

Ladyhawk - how exciting!

5 for today (Thursday already).

1) MrN came round this morning with a cup of tea for me. :-)

2) Went to yoga.

3) Pretty much up to date on housework.

4) Took sons into local town for the library and sweetshop. Got some nail varnish. Sons were aghast (!) as I have not used anything like that in many a long year, certainly not since they can remember. Strange how I immediately went back to my Goth roots and bought dark purple without thinking. :-S

5) Fish and chips for tea.

That's about it!

Tealady: I'm glad your mum & dad were okay, but they must have got such a fright, as you would too when you heard !
Frith: that made me smile about your nail polish! Sometimes we are not just 'mum!'

rainy morning here but hurrah it's Friday already!

Frith - got to love dark purple nail varnish. That's the shade I always go for too - that or deep dark red.

Here's my pleasures for today:

1. A beveverage after a long day. I haven't indulged in a while, so it was nice to relax with a small rum and coke.
2. I can almost do the splits! About an inch to go
3. The cayenne peppers on my plant are really starting to form now and there's at least 7 fruits so far.
4. Dropping some more items off at the charity shop.
5. Seeing Mum this morning. I popped around before work and dropped off a copy of Garden News and one of those new Flakes you can buy (the ones wrapped in truffle) Her face was a picture.

Night all.

Hiya,

My five for Thursday:

1. Having a haircut. It's been 103 days since the last one - not that I'm counting :rotfl:

2. Getting all the washing back out on the line at about 5pm when the wet weather suddenly picked up and became all sunny and blowy. Managed to get all of the clothes bone dry by about 8pm.

3. Tackling some more of the kitchen cupboards and found SR flour, currants and mixed spice that were all out of date so I and made some very nice Welsh cakes.

4. Meal planning until next week which was a bit overdue but very easy to get done.

5. Looking out at the back garden from the kitchen sink and being quite pleased that we haven't mowed the lawn in ages because the clover and buttercups were looking lovely.:D

Sweet dreams
