A Freecyler came and took some stuff last nite (others never bothered to turn up?:mad: ) got rid of stuff out of airing cupboard! - that spurred me on to sorting out the kids toys YET AGAIN!

Well I have been a busy bee this morning. washing out on the line, batch of scones made, oranges in jelly, cooked a small gammon joint and have made lentil soup with the liquor for lunch......now I need a rest, oh forgot, marked and cut out two more cushion covers, phew!!!!!!!!!! I do need a rest.
OH will be in shortly for his lunch, library this afternoon we both have books waiting for us, Oh just rememberedd cut some rhubarb for a crumble too....need a couple of apples to make a large one to last 3 days.
Very sunny but there is a real cool 'nip' in the air, I need to go to B & Q and get a packet of bulbs, they had 50 for £4.99, I have another B & Q voucher coming from shop and scan, so I will use that.
Step son still has not done anything about the vaccum at the flats so he will not be getting the stairs done this month........I can live without it anyway...

catowen - thanks for toy link! I wish i was as fit as that sportacus!:o0 -
Well, we are back from our trip to Looe, it was cold, windy and a bit miserable if im being honest, so we didnt stay long!!!! We did have some chips that the children enjoyed, but are making me feel a bit dodgy (prob the fat they are cooked in!!!) and then spent £4 in 2ps in the amusement arcade, so they had a nice time. I found a pretty shell on the beach as well, so DD is very happy with that!!!! I also had a mystery shop to do on the way back, and forgot to get a receipt, so i doubt i will get paid for it, so im really mad with myself!!! Then to cap it all, the glove box in my car wouldnt open, and i pulled the handle so hard it came off in my hand!!! Hopefully they are the 3 bits of bad luck for me, and things will get better now!!!! Mind you, compared to what a lot of people are going through at the moment, i do feel a bit silly whinging about silly things!!!
Right, off to do something, children happy outside so thats good.
Take care xxxxxxxxxx0 -

((((((((((((((mimi))))))))))))))
Finally back from taking the oldies shopping. We stopped for lunch in Tesco and I had a reasonably edible chicken korma and rice. The kids are now stuffing themselves with sweeties bought by nanny and I am chilling with a coffee. I managed driving quite well and only hurt my hand once, I uttered a word I did not really want DD to learn
I still can't believe Pesto is so cheap at Lidl atm and Doritos are on BOGOF at Tesco so I am a very happy bunnyThe cupboards are pretty full again and only 5 days until payday and I still have £170 left in one bank account and £130 in the bill acount. I can't believe I have done it when DH didn't get paid his overtime last payday.
Mum treated DD to the most gorgeous pair of metallic pink ankle boots in Lidl for £3.99, they're a size larger than she needs so they should see her right through the winter.
I'm going to laze around all afternoon, attempt some knitting and read my christmas doughcraft book.Organised people are just too lazy to look for things
