Good morning

where is everyone?

I went back to bed this morning with some painkillers as after my 12570 steps yesterday, my hip was killing.

Had my halfcost order this morning ;) am very very pleased with the quality of the stuff :) although the cat cards i ordered for my mum for 50p turned out to be xmas cards, so i think i will order a few more packs as they are a good price for the boys to give out at school and the street :)

a nice day here at the moment so the washing machine is on, got a load on the line a load in the machine and 2 loads to do.

no wet bed this morning thank goodness :) the vinegar in water solution and the neutradol worked a treat, but i did buy a new waterproof matress cover yesterday.

Not sure what i'm doing today yet, althougth i need to go to boots and get/order some drynights.

    Morning Claire.

    I'm off to the bank and try and catch up on the 1001 jobs I didn't get to yesterday as I was called into work.


    Catch you all later :D

    PS: anyone who needs inspiration and has a spare few hours, pop onto the diary boards and read MemoryGirls make do and mend thread. It's very positive and she has some good recipes on there too.

  • Morning everyone.

    The sun is shining here, but for how much longer?

    Got a fairly relaxed day at work, doing reports!

    Love to you all,

  • Morning all

    Poured with rain here too, thought it was never going to stop :eek: Have collected lots of water for the garden though. Looks like it might start again shortly!

    Work has turned really busy which is good but a little bit.. waaaah!

    I'm asking for some help here.

    I want to set up a website for work. It doesn't need an on-line shop, just purely a site showing where we are and what we do.
    So, where do I begin, I've had a bit of a google and I think I need a domain name and a host to start with.

    Claire, I'm sure you've got a site/shop, any tips?

    PM's welcome :D

  • Wow it's quiet in here today!

    I have nothing more productive to add other than: my boy started at nursery this morning (just 2 mornings a week) and I've been sitting here all morning waiting for a call from my DW to tell me how he got on - I've got no fingernails left!! :o

    .....and all that I knew was the hole in my roof!

    What timing. House on market for letting and got up this morning to water dripping into the bathroom through the shower electric switch :eek: Need to go and see my neighbour to get hold of a roofer. This may take care of a bit of my remaining savings :(

    Going to see two rooms in Newcastle this afternoon - see what their definition of 'large' is.

    Now need to spend some time on jobs.

    I must be going mad....Went in Primark and they had ankle high uggalikes for a fiver...so I got a grey pair....Admittedly they are rather comfy and will come in handy for when I have long days at uni/need to go pick nalle up/general cold feet.
    Got my uni timetable, am in 9-3 and 10-4 Thursday and Friday, and in Monday and Tuesday for odd hours. Have Wednesday off so that's a nice treat :D
