Morning All

Everyine has lots of things to do, I am preoccupied waiting for my union rep to ring... I am entitled to go back to work, the GP overrides Occupational Health but the school are being deliberately awkward...grrrr, so hopefully will be back in work tomorrow and therefore back on full pay til the end of my contract (end of August).

Other than that
water greenhouse
mollycoddle chickens
freeze courgette soup i made last night - not wastage
clean kitchen and bathroom
photograph fabulous shoes for ebay!
consider selling my overlocker

On the plus side i slept through last night so dont feel quick so miserable and depressed today!

Hope everyone has a good day .

Good morning Milly & everyone. Feeling really fed up today, had an arguement with ds last night, and obviously worried about the meeting tomorrow ...

Hello everyone!
Glad to see people are a bit more positive today - Determined special hugs for you (((( ))))).

The gas man has been already to mend the boiler and has popped off to get a part - he seems to know what's wrong and its on a fixed fee basis including parts and labour so at least no nasty surprises with the bill. OH and I will pay £80 each so I suppose it could be worse.:o


My list....

• Walk dogs for free exercise (done 1)
• Do one load of washing (the final holiday wash - hurrah!) and dry naturally - its taken so long to do it all because of the weather and drying it all
• Text dad to say happy birthday - he's on hols in Spain
• NPower man came and gave me a quote for swapping suppliers and it works out at 75% of the cost of British Gas for me so going ahead and swapping
• All food from stores - sweet potato curry, chick pea and spinach dahl and naan bread for tea
• Find a recipe for chick pea dahl!
• Check banks
• Transfer my half of boiler repair from savings - grrrr!
• Do any survey sthat come
• Read library book and check when they're due back
• Fiddle with meal plan for next week to minimise shopping needed
• Continue finding cheap/free places to go with sister next week
• Clean living room glass panel doors - hate that job!
• Try to have a NSD - again!

That's all I can think of for now - will pop back later if I'm inspired!

ah bless you all :A I'm fine though just woke up sad because of the arguement and quite sleepy so probably didn't sleep very well last night (PMT doesn't help either :eek:! Last couple of month's I've had it really badly and it just heightens my responses to stressful situations emormously, and even makes me think ppl are "having a go" at me when in actual fact their not :eek: oh used to give me a 2 day "carte blanche" but now I need that extended to 7 days )!

Stitching witch - I'm new to economy 7 - infact the lady on the phone when I tried to switch to another company told me I couldn't because I was on economy 11 (?)

Anyway my question is this - how do you know when to put the machines on to use the cheap electric - is there a set time or can you easily find out?

Thanks! I hope you enjoy your day out in the Cotswolds that sounds lovely!

Mum is at work now so I'll respond - the leccy company will tell you when your hours run, mine are different to mums as she gets an extra hour more than me!

I put mine on time clocks so it's easier

Lol took me so long to respond as I got busy! LOL
