    Cycling hugs sweetie.

    Neighbours rabbits put to bed; kids played on their trampoline for an hour (I did ask if it was ok)

    I've changed 2 beds today and that is it flying wise. I have baked a delicious cake bar though. Kaz please tell me that cake is not for eating?

    Off to start the pile of ironing now and I think I nice chilled glass of deep rose with chelsea on catchup.

    Hi fly friends...got back today from a great weekend, thoroughly enjoyed myself and laughed so much...it felt good.;):D

    Anyways, flying came with me as I hired a van to 'camp' in and every day retidied it up so unpacking it was a doddle.

    DD1 is off for 10 days sailing round the country, not sure which end yet!!! Good luck and calm sea vibes would be very appreciated.:cool:

    Made a sunday dinner even though its not sunday, bunged a few washes on, re distributed all the camping stuff, cleared and wiped the dining table. Helped DD1 get organised she has 2 trips to pack for, the sailing and then we're off to a bike show immediately she gets back so she's being very organised so we don't have kittens.:o

    Hubby has just reminded me that I bought a tent last year (before I got poorly) and it is unopened in a cupboard upstairs....oopsy.

    This weeks mission is to get a new cooker, for the least amount of money, its going to be an expensive month.:eek:

    I hope nobody minds if I post small achievements tonight. It might help to keep me motivated so I plod on!

    DH and friend (who can't walk far, so regular lifts on Mon/Wed) decluttered to the club
    essential plants watered
    DS1 (tea) and DS2 (supper) fed
    TD and WM on
    new liner in plastic recycling bin

    Going to make a cuppa and empty/re-load DW before DS2 disappears to bed.

    Hi everyone

    Hope you are all well.

    I'm doing my own list for the next two weeks, got to get sorted for moving out so will be working my way through it.

    I won't be on very much, but I'll pop on when I can!

    Love to everyone
    xx

    Question For those that use silicone bakeware, do your cakes come out with a shiny crust on the edge. I just had to cut the edge off the rainbow cake as it looked awful (the edge not the cake, although you've got to have a strong stomach I think if offered a piece - err which colour cake would you like, slice of blue, green, purple :rotfl:)

    Yup, my silicone bakeware does that to cakes too. I always think it's a good excuse to slap on the icing :D

    The rest of the time I've spend SOAADFA, apart from looking at the youth hostel website (:eek: at the prices),

    We have given up on YHA lately because it's so expensive (even though DH is a life member). :o It generally works out cheaper to go to a Travelodge or similar....tragic really IMHO.

    Well we dropped Miss A off at Oakes and shan't see her again until Thursday. W will miss her not being around to play with but we shall have some fun together while she is away.

    Triker try freecycle for a cooker while you save for the one you really want.

    Would it be ok to join in again. I have fallen off the wagon in spectacular fashion over the last couple of weeks so my house once again looks like I have been burgled and we are living on ready prepared foods that we can't afford.

    I REALLY need a kick to get back into it again.

    OF COURSE you can join in again! I'm inviting you on behalf of the group, as this thread moves Hellish fast, and stuff can get missed.

    I'm on week two of visitors from 'abroad' so I'm struggling. Thankfully dh has pitched in beautifully.

    Hang in there LTL, it's a constant battle!
