20p op today
Dd has her tutor this morning, then I'm off for a dog walk whilst the boys laze around on the Xbox, I'll let them have today to mooch about indoors, and hopefully get them out and about later in the week.
I should do some fly ladying and washing and ironing today, need to keep busy so I don't eat! First day of the diet went well yesterday went well,except for a small Malteser bunnyMFW 67 - Finally mortgage free! 💙😁0 -
I did a bit of cooking yesterday, made some veggie bean burgers from the good food site and they were horrid, I had to chuck them. Also did a slow cooker full of spag Bol, however in dh portions that's about 3 servings :eek: he isn't massive just does not eat at work all day so comes home starving.
Have a friend coming for lunch with her kids today,but I think we are getting them all chips for lunch as a treat. I did promise the kids the cinema this week, although we can't all agree on a film still, does anyone know if you can get 2-4-1 with O2 at vue as I'm sure I've done it before and the website just has orange weds info on it?

Hi Lulabelle, no prices yet, one came round the sunday before last and the other last friday. Maybe they don't like us
Hi cath, we are staying as due to dh's business accts we can't get any mortgage until the accts are in the red for 3 years, by which time dd would be almost 19 and the boys 16. Its me that needed to get over myself really, unless we moved area we could never afford a bigger house with 4 beds and a big garden, so i'm trying to make the most of what we have got. They are at a great school locally, shops around the corner, we are close to a tube station and main overhead station and most family some friends are walking distance.
Nothing will stop me lusting after houses on rightmove though, its a proper addiction, but we can't move now at least for a few years by which time we might not need a bigger house. Do you have itchy feet to move again cath?
Hi pink poppy, glad the film was good, might take them tomorrow, please don't tempt me with skyfall, i don't like James Bond uually,but went to see that at the cinema and LOVED it :T (and also Daniel Craig who is not my usual cup of tea!)MFW 67 - Finally mortgage free! 💙😁0 -
We didn't get to see Skyfall at the cinema so I'm desperate to watch the DVD ~ I'm not a James Bond fan either but I'm definitely a Daniel Craig fan
I might even insist DH wears the Daniel Craig mask I bought him for Christmas when we watch the DVD ~ make sure I get the maximum swoon effect!! :rotfl:
