determined_new_ms

Morning everyone ~blurry-eyed this morning as was struck by insomnia and didn't sleep until 5am :eek:. So annoying as had loads of things I wanted to do before starting work at 12 . Oh well I will just have to do my best... On the plus side I did list 4 books on Amazon during the early hours :j


Ok so:

• [STRIKE]quick shower & get ready for work[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]leave note for ds reminding him to turn off the water when he puts it on for a shower...[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]grab things to make lunch & tea at work[/STRIKE]
• text friend to say not to cook for me she cancelled which I am relieved about after lack of sleep...
• [STRIKE]go to bank in lunch hour and close down Abbey account :j interest free od period ends tomorrow [/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]pay monies into AL acc[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]wrap and post ebay parcels[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]pay housekeeping money into joint acc[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]bag up & pay in £8 savings [/STRIKE]
• NSD - am DETERMINED!!! didn't achieve this one as popped into £shop a and got a couple of bits. However in my defence I realised I need to get petrol today so thought I'd combine the things I need so can have a NSD tomorrow
• [STRIKE]drive carefully to work[/STRIKE]
• go for walk with friend after work cancelled
• water plants
• [STRIKE]any surveys available[/STRIKE]

ok so that is about all I will be able to achieve today! "Happy" Monday.... the weekend seems a long way off. Sending happy thoughts to old and new posters, offsprings feeling poorly, houses that are to be valued and anyone lurking x
not doing too bad at this point

Having a bad afternoon post nap...too many cigs...one awful chest and not a lot getting done...just wondering if ANY of that list is possible beore tea (don't know what I pressed but it just deleted a load :eek:)..

Also TOM anyday so that'll be a day in agony not functioning min....

And don't mention the chest.....

Och I've got to be reasonable and allow myself whoopsies with this new challenge....

Now on the look out for a cheap screw on mop head (string)...cheapest I can get to (bearing in mind Mr. A is still out cos not well enough to cycle) is about £2.50 from L....Does this sound about right?

Anyhow best go and try and get brain in gear - even if it's just to do washing up/put laundry on airer...Think ironing might have to be delayed in order to get revision done:(

PS. Stitching witch - how long was it before you got your email fae that girlie re clicks? E

Mid week La-E? I wish I did your job, I'm day one today!

Today is started with a realisation I have major back ache and major sun burn...grr. Well this is due to sitting in the sun chopping up some pallets into bags of kindling for the winter, I have 4 bags = £20 worth of kindling. I also have LOADS of wood left to process that I was just too tired to do yesterday!
Not sure the ache and burn is worth £20???

My list today is:-
- [STRIKE]HC on over night (rescued "free" stuff from DB2's garage)[/STRIKE]
- [STRIKE]HC on line to dry[/STRIKE]
- [STRIKE]Get invoicing together[/STRIKE] £2800 today!
- [STRIKE]Check banking/CC's[/STRIKE] getting a refund from something I ordered not turning up, didn't think I stood a chance! I love paypal...
- [STRIKE]Phone tax credits to try and update with CB number and impress the urgency on them[/STRIKE] still not registered! :mad::eek:
- [STRIKE]Text friend to see if she can have DD on Wed AM due to NSOH being an idiot[/STRIKE] not possible, another of my days holiday taken! :mad:
- [STRIKE]Chicken out of freezer to make dinner, not sure what yet[/STRIKE]
- Definately sparkle! - I have tried but it's been sooooooo hot!!!
