AnW'sMum, how annoying for you and I'll join in with the rude words **&^%£(** *&&^%$£!!

Toots, shame the shopping trip is cancelled but lovely to have you here instead to keep us on the straight and narrow

Macpep1, keep plodding on with the invoices m'dear - hope you enjoyed your cereal bar!

Smartie, well done on the little list ... baby steps remember!

Keep going everyone, we're going to have lovely houses and doing it together makes it so much easier I'm finding.

In my HHC (turned out to be a 45 mins HHC!) I:
* emptied WM
* took down dry and put away or ready to be ironed (must do some tonight)
* made the beds
* hung up wet washing
* quickly did hot spots in bedrooms
* came down and have made some lentil soup from the SC recipes thread.

Best of all I have really cut my finger - did a stupid thing as the bacon boiled over (being a numpty I used too small a pan), I looked around to see just when I was slicing a big carrot and, you've guessed it, cut my left thumb. I'm on Warfarin so my blood is more runny anyhow but it didn't half make a mess! I managed to keep going (wrapped it up in kitchen roll) and will leave it wrapped for a while longer.

That'll learn me won't it

ps I didn't realise but the soup is meant to cook for 10 hours - do you think it'll be OK if I have the SC on high for, say, 2 hours and then turn down to low at 12.30? I'm a bit of a novice at all this home cooking lark

MissHiggerty

Am just checking in quickly, but must get on...

My aim this week is to do DD's room and the bathroom, in addition to the kitchen, for stars this week but just to run the hoover over the rest.

I've got lots of paperwork which has suddenly built up (from nowhere ) and a huge stack of filing which I must shift from my 'DO THIS OR DIE' folder before it explodes. Plus I must back up all my work today - couldn't get the laptop to boot up at first this morning, and felt ****sick****- as it had all my work for tomorrow on it...:eek:. Now it is running I have to act fast!

And I have to find out what is weighing half a ton in the carry case, and choose some clothes for tomorrow... (can you tell I'm nervous? )

Plus I have a chicken pie to rustle up and stock to freeze down, and British Gas to fight (they have just whacked my monthly DD up enormously, for no good reason :mad:. I may be some time.... )

Quick :coffee:then a HHCook followed by an hour's paperwork, I think...

Love and hugs to all
MissH

ETA: will join you AnW'sMum!
