Been at this two hours and getting nowhere fast. Boiler has packed in last night, so shivering in two pairs of socks, legwarmers, shorts under trousers, two jumpers and a poncho! Also, it's snowing again, and the council haven't deigned to collect recycling for the fourth week running. Ever had one of those days?! (Think I need a cup of tea and some cake...)

Mary!! Good luck for tomorrow hun :T
Magpye - hope your boiler gets fixed soon. Was talking to my next door neighbour today who ran out of oil a week ago (she has 4 kids in the house) the oil company have taken her order and told her they cannot deliver until next week :eek: she paid them long before she ran out and its -2C in their house. I have decluttered my electric heaters out of the garage into their house currently. Oh and yes one of those days - bit like several on the trot at the moment but cake and chocolate definately help :rotfl:
Slowing down here a bit at the moment as life seems to be getting in the way;

Recycling bins - 6 weeks and counting that they have not been delivered now :eek: apparantly though the council had 5 trucks break down yesterday, so perhaps we will get a collection before february if we are lucky.............
Going to have a go at my jewellary box this afternoon, and declutter and organise me thinks.
Hope you are all staying warm and safe in this weather, we had more snow yesterday :rolleyes: will be glad to see spring come now.Free/impartial debt advice: Consumer Credit Counselling Service (CCCS) | National Debtline | Find your local CAB0 -
Oooo good luck for tomorrow Mary, a lovely bundle of joy for the new year - my New Year bundle just turned 5 on Monday!
Right, have been in DS room today and had a sort out (still got his desk to do) - usually we go through his stuff together, but I find that he wants to keep things and then never plays with them, so I have moved things out which I know he has not played with in past few months to go to charity shop.
IN:
Bank statement
2 Amazon packages - soon to be out as they are for SIL birthday
OUT:
Bag of rubbish out of DS room, straight into dustbin.
Bag of old Christmas decorations to Oxfam - dropped them off on my way to the bank.
Pending out:
Scope Charity Bag & 1 black bag - have filled with old toys and clothes from kids rooms - won't be picked up until Tuesday though :rolleyes:
