longtermlurker - you have done well today - good for you:T:T - just a little tip - don't put too many things on your extras list - be very realistic as to what you will achieve - if you list too many you might get down-heartened if you don't complete them all - better to have just a small amount and do them all (you can always find another extra if you get through a list!!!)

Morning everyone, hope you are all ok. Day 2 of proper posting to keep me on the clean and tidy wagon.

Thanks toots. I have tried to list easy extras and they are for the week but I may have been a bit optimistic:o Hope you are ok. x

cyclingyorkie hope your ohs dad is ok. Sending positive vibes.

Natty. I found 2 of the french vanilla tart things in a draw at the weekend and they are heading for the charity bag. I didn't know people liked them that much:eek: Good luck for your appointment. x

Morning all - just checking in before driving lesson - it's parallel parking day

In the past 24 hours, I have been called by

The weekend Bloke

The Mad Ex with The Convoluted Lovelife - for moral support because another one of his women has said some quite cruel things about him - the sort of thing that (IMO) wasn't true , and even if it were, it would be a sackable offence to say so. I think at the end of the conversation, he may have proposed to me again. But that's just his insecurities making him want to go to the next female around.

and

The Very Old Friend from Primary School turned up at the music studio to take me out for a drive, a quick half in the pub and a chat about his life and kids and Mrs.

Just decluttered the council tax for this month so i'm down £127.:eek:. Nearly died looking at the price.
Hoovered the front room and made the kids pick loads of stuff up so the now the place is decluttered and looking cleanish.
Paid for a family railcard, so it looks like the children will be going down south for a week with they granny.

Going to go upstairs and sort stuff out again x
