Morning All

Have had major clear out of computer desk and huge pile of paperwork, post, filing, bills etc yesterday. And in doing so have decided that can get by with computer desk we have, just need to keep all tidy and clear and allocated hallway shelf for some filing - so have saved £80+ on buying a new tall pc desk - yeh.

Today I have/will:

Put washing on quick wash - DONE
Wash some bedding - DONE
Line dry all washing - YEH!
Get passport applications x 2 checked and sent off at Post Office as only got 6 weeks until holiday - hope haven't left too late :mad:
Sow 3 more trays of seeds today with boys - NO
Lunch from stores - but what? DONE
Make lamb stew for dinner DONE
Take boys to coast and run around with football and dog - free exercise and fun DONE
Have snack in cafe - or perhaps take some fruit and buns - cheaper - yes, a mini picnic me thinks - HOME SNACKS - DONE
Order trampoline tonight for all 3 boys and use cashback site
Finish few things from yesterdays list
Ensure that all jobs done by 8.30pm so that I can have bath/relax and actually sit down and watch one of many taped programmes from V+ - MADE IT AT 9.30PM!

Have a great day everyone.

Morning all!
Had a busy morning so far already
- walked dog
- bathed dog and trimmed hair around his eyes (not very happy about it)
- made appt for doggy proper hair cut for next Saturday
- hoovered downstairs - think hoover is bust as its not picking up and there's nothing in the cylinder -poo!
- checked banks

In addition today -

• Go to dog shop to get him a few bits
• Pop to shop for milk
• Write 3 lessons (last push!)
• Do a bit of marking (last bit!)
• Look on web for new hoovers - have a £50 high street voucher thing left over from wedding presents so may have to use that
• Clean bathrooms
• All food from stores
• Dog recovered so doesn't need vet - phew, wasn't looking forward to the bill
• Do any surveys that come - am waiting for a £10 voucher
• Put petrol in whilst I'm out and about

That's it for today - better get cracking.

Morning all
I am still around - just being lazy and only reading some days....:o

Determined new MS - thanks for starting the thread - I'll be back to getting up at 6.45 on Mon 19th when schools go back - I work there as well as having to get my kids there:rotfl: Am afraid I'm not a naturally early person - as well as not sleeping too well, so I like my lie-ins;)

I was a very busy bee on Wed and did clearing, visits to tip....then felt rubbish yesterday with the Crohn's really playing up - serves me right for being busy eh?! SO a gentle day today...stuff to do but will go careful:)

Triangle - you're always doing your Uni work...I'm in awe, I have no motivation and just put it off constantly.I have a 4000word essay due but I've not started, just not sure where to...grrrrrrr at myself:mad:

Ok, better crack on:

• check banking....all ok
• daily scratch
• Just done yet another Body Shop order - got a £10 mascara, £16 eye shadow cubes, £4 tea tree concealer for £11.60 plus 15% Quidco back - I can't resist Body SHop, have so much stuff stashed:o
• New Look order done with 20% off code - all stuff for DD1....£62 of stuff, £12 off and £6.20 tracked on Quidco:T
• 1 washing is on the line - another in the machine
• post ebay parcel
• meat out of freezer for tonight's dinner - chicken chow mein
• make HM tomato sauce to use up 2 halves of peppers - 0 point WW;)
• clean bathroom
• hoover through house
• ironing
• write list for Tesco - and then not spend much when I go there!
• Panic about my essay:eek:
• try and sparkle

Ok, that's all - probably loads more to do

:wave: Hello everyone

Very sunny day today! But i am at work booooo!!!!!! Only today and then another 4 days off

Thanks everyone for your anniversary comments on weds I will remember to use OH on here instead of DF for dear fiancee. I am so used to posting on babycentre boards and DH/DP/DF are used on there!!

OH (:D) had his first extra day off this week as part of his new 4 day week. He actually did a nice amount around the house so i was pleased! I was out all day and i think he quite liked the day at home by himself!

Today i have / will

• Go to work!!
• Soup for lunch from cupboard
• Decide what to have for dinner tonight as OH isn't having boys night. Usually i have something quick and they cook between them.
• OH isn't playing squash as his 'boys' are busy so i wont be going swimming. So with that and no drinks for boys night etc we have probably saved £7-10 today
• Check banking
• Have a film night with OH (maybe sharing a box of malteasers or an easter egg!!):EasterBun
• Surveys
• Check ebay
• Send 2 ebay items at lunch
• Kids lunch and dinner from stores
• Dig out orange letter to ask for cheque back of my remaining credit
• Ring TC tonight!!! left paperwork at home so can't do it from work
• OH taking my uni books i sold on ebay to work to send as it costs a lot less and will be there tomorrow.
• Need to think about making an exercise plan for starting soon. Not been too good lately but talks of wedding plans have got me a little more motivated
• Email a few of my travel agent friends to find out their opinions on best value destinations for abroad weddings!

I hope everyone is having a great day

Ooooh, I have just gained my second star on here! Another reason to be sparkly!

Thanks Milly :A It's hard sometimes to be motivated - especially as the puppy is currently laying in the garden in the sunshine looking like he hasn't got a care in the world - but this course is so hard and it's meant that it's such a financial struggle for me and DH that I feel I need to work really really hard so that when I qualify it will all be worth it And shhh, don't tell anyone but I actually quite like writing essays! Good luck with yours
