    Morning all
    Sending phone call vibes to you cat to get the call you want!!! :)
    Today is really my first day feeling normal again and feeling like I should be so I am going to embrace it, after my boss told me I had been "a bit spiky" over the last few days (this was right after saying that he knew I was ill and really appreciated me coming in, and that he wanted to send me home).
    Anyways so today I will..........
    - Go to Mr T's at lunch and buy from list - forgot list dammit, but got most things and nothing more
    - Aim to sell one more purge for this month's cut off (Sunday) - did it
    - Speak to bro about babysitting tomorrow while I'm doing over time tomorrow - cant do it! aghh, mum doing it instead
    - Meal from meal plan (Schnitzel and boiled pots! yum) - done
    - Lunch from home (mostly eaten at desk) - done
    - Close any overage jobs - hmm did some..
    - Bill head gasket job as there are 15 hours in it! Yippee. Also search for any unbilled labour that can bring my numbers up for the month. - done :)
    - One load of HC in before I left this morning, hang it on airer when I get home rather than tumble, then put another load in, trying to get ahead for the weekend! - done
    - Keep up with onepoll surveys - done
    - Keep an eye on ebay sales, I am up to £57.96 in bids so far with one day on one item (12 watchers) and 2 days on the other 6.
    Hope everyone has a good day, I am feeling positive today!

    Ive got 2 large concertina airers from Wilkos and I can dry about 4 loads on there at once and it dries within 24 hrs, often less. I also have one of those little hanging airers and I can hang the socks up (attached to the velux window handle lol) and I have often hung the socks up at 11pm and they are bone dry by 7am the next day, and thats with no heating in that room. I also have three 4 bar radiator airers which I hang towels on as they take forever to dry. HTH :)


    You know, the problem could be that the airer is so rubbish! I might look into different designed one to see if it'll help the air flow round a bit better. Cheers.

  • Evening all!!
    paid £250 off my loan today so very pleased..
    Made chilli and rice ( chili was frozen weeks ago so stuck it in the slow cooker this morning) made tea as soon as we got in so OH didn't think about chips!!
    Had pasta from cupboard for lunch.
    Have bought some milk... couldn't face saturday morning without a brew!
    Done 1 lot of washing - will do more tomorrow.
    I have a voucher for £8.00 off when I spend £40 at tesco ( it came to my mum and shes away so said i can have the next 2 vouchers -don;t know why she got one and i didn't!!) I have to go to a certain tesco but i figured if i spend exactly £40 and get essentails that I will need to buy anyway it will be worth it. Thats my thinking anyway!!

    I have some serious tidying to do tomorrow!!! My house is a pig sty!

    off to plan meals for next week now!
    see you all tomorro x

    I had lunch bought for me today as part of a team day out but I had to pay £15 for the event beforehand which wasn't so good.
    Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!
