I'm hoping to do better than last week - still in alot of pain - appointment with the surgeon on 23rd so I'm going for at least 2 stars this week - anymore is a bonus. I also like the idea of putting my own list for the week jobs so will have to get round to that as well.

Thanks for the warm welcomes everyone

Sorry , I cannot remember who said they stabbed their hand instead of the avocado stone - who ever it was I do hope your hand heals quick!

I managed to bring down my two work t shirts to put in the wash

I live with my mum and dad and my brother moved to andover 6 days ago to a residential college which supports independant living for those with physical/mental disabilities but he comes home every other weekend.

I did get into doing the washing but I turned mums towels pink when i put in my red t shirt in lol. In all fairness I did think I had put a color catcher in there!

Tomorrow i hope too.

Check how much is in my account pay day is not until the 26th so need to work out stuff financially
Get back on plan with slimming world.
Sort out washing
Sort out clothes see what can go to the charity shop freecycle/bin.
Get uniform and lunch ready for work on Wed.

I leave for work at 7am and dont get back until 7pm Dinner is usually half 7 followed by a bath which means my evenings properly start around 8:30 give or take 15 minutes.

But even the girls at work (I work and train in a nursery) laugh at the amount of mess i leave behind me , they say i am worse then the kids.

I need to learn to juggle stuff as in sep i am hoping to do 2 night courses at college english a or as level and nvq3 childcare along with full time work 5 days a week which can be done but would rather it be done with more organaization x

Either I'm missing a bit from the airbed as there is no way that the pump fits, or I can't spot the air inlet. Chances of me working it out... minimal...

Maybe if I leave it for the teenager he'll work it out

ETA... worked it out... takes AGES!!!
