*Holds nose for TPA's hug

Thanks all, I thinkl this headache is just down to the fact that I am just so darned tired I could cry. I wanted to leave the horses out tonight but its so cold and wet they'll have to come in..... We're supposed to be going out as well but that wont be til 7 at least and then up again at 520 tomorrow I need to stop whinging.... Headache still there, DansDad forgot Valentines , fencing done Shower fixed Too cold for biking :cool:

Not a migraine I get those very infrequently, but one of those darned ones that wont shift

Home / Simplify :
Do a little housework everyday so shouldnt need a big blitz once a week. Washed kitchen floor this morning
Keep freezer and cupboard inventories so no need to spend nilly nilly. Up to date and still full
Declutter the loft and ebay/carboot/charity everything. Need to get listing

Yard / Horses:
Keep my tack/feed room tidy and floor swept! Ahem...
Clean my tack at least once a month No need - not riding
Get Danny fitted for a new saddle this spring Birthday pressie from Ma

Money:
Try to make my OP target on the mortgage challenge £250.39 in Feb
Work out a grocery challenge budget and stick to it. Joined this month aiming for £175.00 Spent £107.00 so far including small furries
Increase my ISA as much as possible and transfer it to a better rate Opened RBS direct ISA 2.3% higher than my NS&I; transfer done

NSD's now 12 On the bike today as its lovely AND the horses are out tonight for the first time this year This means I dont have to get up til 615 tomorrow yip yip yip!!!! The One Who Has Needles has chastised me today for mollycoddling, but Old Horse is 32 this year and I wont have him out in the rain/freezing temperatures....:o Poor old soul... Am on headache week 2 its in the backround but wont shift, so will give it another few days before I do owt else about it. Am probably dehydrated as drink far too much tea and coffee....

Thanks all xxx

I had an extra half hour in bed last night and guess what headache has gone! I think that along with the fact that the SUN IS SHINING and it's mild has done the trick and the headache finally gone

Been Ms Biker Chick :cool: again and getting used to the new one which has been christened Sputnik. Its a little odd looking and put wings on it and it could quite possibly go into orbit it's that quick DansDad and I were doing 'Traffic Light Grand Prix' on the way into work today....

Have bought a new helmet as definatley needed as the other 2 are ancient and I dropped one yesterday which is now useless Not :money: but a lifesaver thingy :A

Poor Ma has been signed off with Labryinthitis :huh: I thought she was morphing into David Bowie :whistle:

Nearly ready for the monthly roundup

Just need to read the meters later and am ready to go, looks like I'll be nearly half on last months expenditure, but not as good in th'ebay front....

Am off tomorrow, so will try a clop round the block on Danny First one in 5 weeks... They've been living out since Thursday night. I had a good lay in on Sunday til 630 :rotfl:Was still snoring on the sofa at 8pm...

:j Finally managed an OP of £50 :j

mummyofonechild

Yay well done you :j

How are the brood and the dawg

DansMum_2

Hey MOOC nice to hear from you xx

Managed another £100 today mortgage is now officially in the £49's :j

Everyone is fine. I had a clop with Dan the other day although it was freezing!! They're both living out 24/7 which eases up on the money and work, although they're both due vaccinations in the next 3 weeks

I have Ma's cat to stay atm. He cried on Monday night, but now has the penthouse suite while everyone else is shut downstairs.

DansDad is not well, is actually going to the Docs so must be bad as he has a doc phobia.....

I may even get the weekend off.... (shh) Havent had one of those since last year:rotfl:

DansMum_2

Hello :wave:

DansDad couldnt get doc appoitnment!! They now offer some telephone assessment should you wish to see an emergency doc :eek: So I packed him off to A&E. He has a family history of bowel cancer and had a nasty scare, but luckily all tests are clear. _pale_ I am livid with the docs though they used to be brilliant....

I havent managed any more OP's this month, been a bit naughty spendy last week for my birthday. We went to the big smoke for the day on the bikes and I bought petrol and a rather fetching hoody... (Get me down with the kids )

Weighed myself on Saturday :wall: Thats another 1/2 stone to come off :mad:
