    BTW my first order from Approved Foods came this morning - I didn't realise the tub of apple sauce was quite so big - so if anyone has any recipes for using apple sauce up that'll be great!

    Well I've sorted out all the bottom of my wardrobe which included all my handbags and I found a fiver!

    Going to carry on.


    I never find money except 1p's and 2p's ... and my DD1 always half-inches them :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Fiver's not bad for a half hours work :D

    ETA: I'll join you PP for HHC but not HHI as my little ones are not trusted to stay away from the iron!!

    For some reason, I was in town by 9:00 this morning! I have paid in a cheque, bought a shirt (reduced) and done my food shop. Much easier in a Friday than the normal chaos of Saturdays!

    Froddington - Glad your beloved team were given another chance.

    Thank you :D :j
    I've had a really bad night ... my "man" in the USA who I absolutely adore ..... was caught in the middle of a tornado last night .... trees have fallen all around his house, the car has been wrecked, they had to go into the basement for safety :eek: he has no power, mobile battery has now died after texting me the latest updates .... so I am anxiously waiting for news .... so any spare flylady prayers or vibes would be appreciated!

    Vibes and prayers for you both xx

    Oh and been to visit the NEW baby gerbils (with an emergency cage) ...we clearly didn't get mum and the old babies away from 'daddy' quickly enough - so 8 'old' babies have been removed to she can care for the 7 new babies...anyone want a gerbil or 2?

    Wow - deja vu!! At least I only ended up with 10 baby furries altogether. And, no, I don't want any gerbils to add to the collection!!

    Btw - the 3 littlies have been named Fudge, Pickle and Stripe!

    IN my HHC I -

    ate a flake in the kitchen while DD1 was in the living room so i didn't have to share :o m'I bad?? :D

    That was a kind thing to do, you are helping her not to eat chocolate just for the sake of it;)

    PenPen hope the teens have a lovely time.
    Less of this :cry:and more of this:kisses2:for you and your DH

    Poohbear Hope you are having a lovely birthday.

    Bathroom all clean and the shower room.

    Just going to make a cake and then some more paperwork before DS3 needs picking up from tennis.

    £64 down thanks to a trip to Costco:eek: Having said that I did stock up with lots of things that last me ages like a washing powder with 400 washes in (or more if I am being OS:)) that should last a couple of weeks:) and 100 freezer bags for my bulk cooking.

    Washing got soaked whilst I was out:mad: no ironing for me tonight then

    Time for an early work finish and a chill now I think

    Urgh! I've had enough now and i'm not even 1/2 way there yet.:eek: I've reduced Ds2's duplo and megablocks by about a 1/3 each ready to go to the car boot sale. The wooden blocks are about to have the same treatment. I've emptied and sorted 4 boxes so far from upstairs. I've filled a black bag for the car boot and have almost filled a paper / card recycling bag. I'm trying to persuade Ds2 to go and play elsewhere i'm running out of room to put stuff and he's got his Dr who toys covering half the floor. i suppose i'd better get back to it.:cool:

    I have been vanishing off to the cupboard of doom (part 2) in the Master Bedroom. It is stuffed full of various things, so in my wisdom I thought I'd take everything out then I would HAVE to sort through it today, but now I can't find my bed :o

    On the plus side, OH now has no excuse not to measure it and, perhaps, get shelves cut and put up tomorrow :D:D:D
