Oh dear! :eek: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: No they weren't meant to be connected :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

I know Z, not very MSE at all! :eek: :rotfl: :rotfl:
Still, it's making money for someone, somewhere - kind of (gosh I'm making it sound worse! :eek:)
Dropped pick axe off at friend's house, and had nice little chatFeeling rather more jolly now, and have all soap ingredients at the ready, so going to have a quick spurt of tidiness in the kitchen (can't play with hot oil and caustic soda while tripping over stuff on the floor!) and then get stirring :j :j Be nice to feel like I've actually achieved something!

Spent an absolute fortune today :eek: Most of it was budgeted for I think, but still :eek: I've bought:
£40 new phone (that will come from monthly 'fun' budget - don't actually have a budget to replace 'essential' (if you can call it that!) things (other than emergency fund - but this wasn't an emergency!)
£8 oil for soap making (comes from this week's 'fun' budget, but that will do for cooking as well, and will make at least a year's worth of soap, plus presents, so not too bad!)
£2 tea at WI (perfectly necessary)
£3 cederwood oil (from fun budget)
£10 nice knickers(from underwear treats budget
)
Er, actually that's not bad really considering everything had a pot to come from! Just don't want to be doing it every weekend...
So - a plan for the rest of the evening :j :j
10-10.30: put music on, hang washing up, tidy kitchen
10.30-11: make soap
11-11.30: probably still stirring soap :rotfl:
11.30-12: curl up on sofa and cut pictures out for cheery craft project til Mr Daffs gets back
Actually, there's not a whole lot of evening left, is there?? :rotfl:0 -

Cheery, you are making it worse, love! Knickers, photo paper, camera, pick axe...If I were a Swedish wiriter I'll borrow these elements and construct the plot of a darkly-obssesive and terribly naughty adventure.
Made me laugh, anyway.

I know this sounds daft, but you just reminded me that i should have an underwear budget..i will allocate one with my clothes budget.
Sounds like a productive day to me and the soap making is one thing i would like to do. Would love to see piccies.Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:0 -

So, to recap: There's pictures of you, in a corset, and not much else, much are mostly decent, and which are making money for someone, but not you...
Hmm... :think:
Why does this remind me of Grease? The bit where they start singing "Tell me more, tell me more!"
