    I'm in again this week. I've been up since 4 this morning and i'm feeling the affects now. Hubby away to the football and won't be near home until 11.30, MIL has said she will go lift him but he's (slightly) drunk and she doesn't know yet.:mad:
    So looks like it's gonna be a long night, you would think he would give me a break seeing as i woke him this morning and left him up the road. I really can't listen to him when i'm tired and him drunk.:(
    I'm gonna make a start on the list and sort the uniforms out.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    hello all
    Thanks to the usual suspects - and the one we have not yet pinned down.
    Missed the bit about no stars BUT as I (a) Fly on my own flightpath and (b) never remember to claim them I am not too bothered, personally.
    So it'll be the usual mad rush on Thursday and, I hope, motivation workwise so I do work work more sensibly...
    ETA have now read it. For some reason I jumped in on post 2 Obviously, as I don't intend to clean just yet PC saved me time and shoved me downm the thread LOL

    Valli's extras

    Inform CSA have had pittance for two weeks
    Arrange breakdown cover (through quidco, natch ;) looking VERY healthy atm, that number (in fact I keep logging on just to look at it :rotfl:)thanks to insurance, new sky and betfair)
    Accept invitation for wedding (now have decided what to suggest for the disco - some wit has gone for Pencil full of Lead :rotfl:)
    BTW They've already had one beehive and they are quite pleased to have gifts bought instead of a donation - so Christian Aid website here I come ...
    Update bank acount (groan)
    Persuade chillies to write something nice on grandma's birthday card.
    decide what to get ma and pa for birthdays.. (Pa's was on the 8th *rolls eyes*)

    and I am reintroducing my own MACAW

    Hiya
    Can I join please. I have been lurking for a while and you have really helped me but now I think I need the incentive to do more than the basic clean.
    Thanks
