    Afternoon all

    Today's list done (luckily I normally do kitchen/diner on Mondays because I didn't switch the computer on until just now).

    Not caught up yet, so I hope everyone's OK.

    Time to serve up dinner, back later.

    Hi all,

    I'm in again, but have MASSES of catching up to do, both reading the old thread & around the house. Last week was pretty much a disaster on the flying front after Tues & am now on a 2 wk count down to End of Quarter at work, so I'll just have to see how I get on.

    So far my additionals this week are:

    [STRIKE]Online shop[/STRIKE]
    Winter Coat to DC'ers
    Shoes (X2/3) to cobbler for re-heeling - before they go too far
    Sort OH's phone (upgrade/new deal etc), - Mine arrived today & now he's desp to get his sorted
    Shallot pickling
    Do something with those plums before it's too late!
    Ebay - must list SOMEthing - have sooo much to list, but need to get started
    Flyers for flowers/nappycakes
    Distribute rest of WW leaflets for Freind

    Done so far:
    [STRIKE]TD on[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]
    Meal Plan done
    [/STRIKE]

    Hugs, spoons & hi 5's as appropriate, - I promise to catch up with the thread!

    Afternoon campers :) Hope everyone is well.. I am still trying to get myself out of holiday mode..lol. Although I must admit I do feel irritated for some reason, it's weird I am reasonably okay when we are away and hubby is with me, but when we are home and he is still here I get really narked..strange!!!

    I also can't believe how a lovely tidy house can go into a mess within 24 hours of being home, and there is only two of us that live here as well as the dogs and cats. It looks like I didn't tidy up LOL.. Oh well never mind I suppose it won't take too long to get through the daily lists though :)

    Oooh Sexy could I possibly have your ginger cake receipe please, we both love ginger cake and I am sure DH would so appreciate a homemade one :)
    Wow Rach I can't believe how near to your due date you are now, it seems only yesterday you announced you was pregnant. Where does the time go..?

    Hugs and love to everyone, especially
    Toots, Diva and LL
