Now I am all for being DFW, but milking cats is a step too far, I feel .

Hi again,
I have spent all day doing housework but the place is still a tip.:( OH is off out to see LA Roux tonight ( my Christmas pressie to him) so I am looking forward to a girly night catching up with Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice and a glass of wine.

Today I:
1) Had planned a NSD but remembered I had to tax the car, and pay B's violin tuition. Bum.
2) Entered some CokeZone points that a friend gave me. I am 1 point off a digital camera, and got another ASOS code.
3) HC drying outside.
4) All meals from stores. I am going to make a curry with all our veg that needs using up.
5) Remain thankful I sent T to school in his older coat today - one of the big boys threw it over the fence and it has gone missing!:eek:
6) Sorted out some more things for the car boot pile.
7) Took some of T's old pants to school for the 'emergency' box.
8) Reserved some library books online.

We are off to Charmouth tomorrow for bank holiday weekend. It is a Sun holiday I booked ages ago, but at the time I didn't realise we were going away in the Easter hols - so this is our second weekend away in two weeks. Naughty. Still, it's only an hour away and there is a fossil festival this weekend so lots of free things to do.

Hope you have a lovely bank holiday weekend, and that the sun shines on us all, L x

Been busy busy today and recovering from the shock of doing 28 hrs a week instead of 16 :eek: coupled with being trained by elderly-only-speed-is-slow-oooops-we-dont-appear-to-do-our-jobs-properly-ah-well colleagues :mad: My usually chipper and all is well - ultra positive! - colleague has had enough and has said if we continue to be trained this way then she is off :eek: She is the only thing keeping me going, this could be a disaster! I have managed to convince her to give it a couple of weeks :T I apologise in advance, but I may just whinge here from time to time :rotfl:

Today I have:

• Checked banking
• Checked amazon sales
• Spotted bargain 10p a roll wall paper thats just right for my mums hallway and took her to buy that :T
• SORNed the old car instead of taxing and insuring it as one of my colleagues has offered to take me if I am stuck for a 6am start and OH manager has put him on 2-10pm to make things easier :T
• Picked up P45 from old job and got phone number for tax office so that I can chase my emergency £80 tax payment that was taken last summer and never paid back :mad:
• Asked old employer when my uniform money will be paid back, they reckon next month, I think they will 'forget'
• Finished off my brothers flooring
• SIL finally paid me £20 for car seat that she had last year :T
• HC
• Watered seedlings, turned pots and found some cues that need potting on already :T

And I will:

• Load DW and get that on
• Check PB and amazon sales (again)
• Watch A2A!

Doesnt seem like much but we havent stopped today...honest!
