Yay :jIts Friday :j:j:j:j
Welcome back Milly, it is great that you now feel well enough to post :j:j:j:j
La E (I can never spell your full username
) and Littlekel, have a lovely weekend x
Olive - well done on saving so much on dry cleaning :j
Today I have:
Had breakfast at home and took lunch to work - did succumb to the choc machine this afternoon though (there goes my diet again :rotfl:) but I really don't do it very often, can't even remember the last time - not really a choc person tbh.
Checked online banking - as expected
Seen to plants and animals - ok, I still have to water plants and walk doglets
NSD except for station car park :mad: and 55p for choc machine
Will cook something for dinner a bit later, as OH is due back from his work trip this evening.
Will think about hoovering and dusting lounge (and may even do it :rotfl:) as little dog #2 has skinned a tennis ball all over the carpet and I actually don't like dayglo yellow/green carpets :rotfl:
Will sign friend's guarantor form for her flat :eek::eek: but I couldn't not help her out after the awful couple of years she has had
Apart from that I am just going to chill, as it has been a really busy week at work, and next week looks like being even worse :eek:0 -
Well, here we are at 7pm and I have done approximately NOTHING today. Checking in mostly to see how many things off the list I can fit in this evening! :rotfl:
* read gas meter
* tidy up (not really MSE unless you count not having a cleaner?? :rotfl:)
* next stage of bathroom DIY :rotfl:
* put washing away
* plant out free tomato plants
* PhD stuff - lots of :rotfl:
* book online train tickets for work on Monday and print
* email probation office
* [STRIKE]send email re fun day[/STRIKE]
* meal plan
* start sprouting some seeds :T
* cheery run - free (much needed) exercise:j
* write on cheery blog
* cheery bath
* put CDs on magpie (I think)
* find 5 things to ebay
* [STRIKE]sort out van insurance[/STRIKE]
* [STRIKE]transfer money between accounts[/STRIKE] (gosh I sound like Father Ted! :rotfl:)
See, I TOLD you I'd done nothing! :rotfl: Mind you, we did go food shopping (well, bought milk and fruit), and had an updated gas bill after I sent them an accurate reading - got over £200 off!! :eek: and they've reduced DD by £40+ a month - still disgustingly high but I'll be swapping soon...
(mind you, receiving the letter didn't take very long, so I have no excuses really! :rotfl: Just one of those days...)
