Jinky - glad you're flying in your new home.
Just the kitchen floor left to do and two ebay parcels to take to the local shop after school run.
Funny thing here - the bathroom door has locked itselfit is an old fashioned thumb lock. Came back from school run, house alarm had gone off and bathroom door is locked with window wide open. No sign of anybody having been here - most peculiar. Neighbour is popping over later to see if he can get the door open for me.

Ironing pile has been cleared - :jand laundry room tidied.
Parcel still hasn't been delivered :mad: and it's not even for me... wish they had sent it royal mail cause could have picked it up from the sorting office - oh well, at least i've got the chores list done.
Time to carry on the mag cull....I'd rather be watching CSI!0 -
carol ((hugs)) honey, was thinking of you all weekend
poohbear ((hugs)) I agree with the others, take the hugs when/where given you deserve them x
Hi everyone, well I am shattered, I did manage to doze off in the end but then awake with the boys. Been jabbed, not as bad as I thought, I shouldn't be scared by now I've had so manywonder if I get any side effects with the SF vac, DP is waiting to see if I do before he has his done so I am guinea pig! I have made him a GP appointment as he has upper back pain/headaches which he's been moaning of for weeks, taking way too many pain killers so parcelling him off on Thursday to get looked at.
Been lizard window shopping, we're looking at getting a big wall unit similar to the TV one, with 3 viv displays....one for Woody then 2 others. I will get more storage with it toothen a space to display my ornament dragons. Bit of cost, well ok about £2k in total but we'll be buying as we go. DPs obsessed now and wants to do the tank interiors himself so it will take a while. http://www.grizzlyrun.com/Files/Images/Image_Gallery/crested_geckos.jpg I like those which have sticky feet and climb the walls but 'night time' lizards, he wants Chameleons which he has wanted for ages like http://www.wildherps.com/images/herps/standard/009313_graceful_chameleon.jpg
For those still using Quidco.....please consider using this instead as you get equal or MORE cashback (they offering 1% more over Xmas anyway) and they don't charge fees! http://www.topcashback.co.uk/ref/lil_me hope my referal link is ok, if not I will change it. I've had loads off them so far, quick to track and get payments.
We're having to go to Metro hell tonight to sort DPs phone out, something he's still not capable of doing alone (this his where his ASD traits show!) so I am going to have a look in some shops for Xmas ideas there too.
Yikes is that the time, best go pick youngest munchkin up, toodles x x xOne day I might be more organised...........
GC: £200
Slinkies target 2018 - another 70lb off (half way to what the NHS says) so far 25lb0 -
:p
You made me giggle:rotfl:
I wish I was being sick for that reason;) 99.9% sure I'm not although I will do a test if I carry on being bleurgh. Maybe my cycles are completely messed up
Hope you've settled in your new home ok:D
I have completed one thing on my list of things to do.... I have wrote my very important letter:jBLOWINGBUBBLES:kisses2: SMARTIE120 -
Lil me- nothing tracks for me on top cash back so I gave up on it.
Rather annoyed with Thorntons courier who claim to have come and left a card on Saturday afternoon and today - we were in, and they didn't leave a card, nor id they leave the parcel in with my also in nice neighbour
Not a lot done yet beyond a trip to BnQ for the bathroom floor. Off to collect the boys and then a couple of HHC should sort the kitchen and DR.'If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need' Marcus Tullius Cicero0 -

Please be careful dusty... if it wasn't like that when you left, then I'd err on the side of caution. Call the police station and see what they suggest.0 -
