Oh wow.
I have wireless :j
So can post from downstairs (I tend to get 'stuck' when I go up to the/spare room study and spend/waste too much time)
Wonder why I feel necessary to put in the 'spare room' bit? It is my study - that's what I use it for.
Now just got to master using laptop pad.:rotfl:

Morning all
We have had a lazy morning so far as we were all watching child of our time last night (almost missed it :mad:) so Miss A and W were late in bed. I find it interesting as Miss A is the same age as those kids.
Did loads of washing and drying yesterday, most of it got folded but there is some ironing to do. I kept going :eek: at the electricity monitor thingy that we set up! We might have to give up washing, drying, ironing, cooking...........:rotfl:
So far today WM and TD on (so it hasn't affected me that much!)
Off to jump in the shower and will then commence a HHC at 10am if anyone wants to join us.Official Mascot and Chief Cheerleader for the 'Mortgage Free in Three' Gang0 -

Morning all
Woke up with a cold, so at least I know why I've not felt great this weekend. I'm in this week - thanks to everyone for the thread.
Plan for this morning:
start TD, WM and DW
wrap presents for German assistant
get myself and DS2 washed and dressed
try to fit in other little jobs (oh dear, where to start...:()
leave no later than 11.30
take plastic recycling to Mr A's on the way to Meadowhall
catch supertram into town to meet with colleagues/friends and assistant for lunch
DH has a haircut to do and then he's promised to finally put up the rotary airer outside. It's probably going to rain now... I also want him to put all his clothes away so I can open the wardrobe doors again.
I'm quickly going to sort the railcard now, as it will save us £6 when we go to Leeds on Thursday, then I'll get going with jobs. See you around tea-time. Hope everyone has a good day.0 -

Morning campers, well I got up with all good intentions
Was going to put the washing out but it is horribly grey and miserable here, where is the sun?
I've had some water and some plain biscuits - I had to take my meds but can't take them on an empty stomach but as I can't eat anything much at the moment I had to improvise. Now I feel sick again and rather iffy. So am heading back to bed - DH will have to amuse himself today again. Bless him he has been brilliant while I haven't been well, although not sure how he long he will be like this as it is wearing thin on me being ill so gods knows what it is doing to him..lol.
Hopefully will be back later when I am feeling a bit better and somewhat less squiffyMortgage Free as of 20.9.17Declutter challenge 2023, 2024 🏅 🏅⭐️⭐️

I did try to post last night but DS spotted what I was typing.
His friend has told him his ex GF has split with the lad sh took up with shortly after dumping DS, who, some of you may recall was devastated (young love *rolleyes*) and DS has admitted he still misses her. He went on FB and she accepted him and they were chatting...
