    many thanks to all at FCC

    I shall be in this week; I have a MUCH 'steadier' week. Of my 3 scheduled working days 1.5 of them will be spent on courses. I'm working Friday pm as a favout to my jobshare who is going to a wedding - and this means, of course, she will cover for me if I ever need a swap!

    Kitten thinks she's got tinnitus:rotfl: she lost her collar - the replacement collar has a bell! I need to buy a new tag for her, too...*rolls eyes* I know *roughly* where her lost collar is though - the hedge at the back...for a guess.

    Meal plannign (usually not done in the Valli household despite A1 guidance from other flyladies is *sort of* done this week - well inasmuch as tomorrows tea sis made..

    and am degiblling PC desk and handbag :eek: at the handbag
    (although I am considered, by my charges, 'cool' because I carry a set of screwdirvers:rotfl:

    Hi, can I join in again please? I do it occasionally - but this week I'm definately in. Have to make a start somewhere.

    Monday - Sitting Room and Hallway (Will also add the conservatory)

    YIPEE - DONE and after I've had lunch I'm off to walk the dogs. Have even put all cushion covers in the wash and freecycled some stuff. :j :j :j

    Tuesday - And here was I hoping for bathrooms as I did them yesterday. Oh well:
    Tuesday ~ Kitchen

    YIPEE - DONE THIS TOO - Dining room is my junk room, so will make headway in there this evening. xx
    DS1 can't go to school as he has the runs (poor little boy) so am stuck being his teacher for the day too as I've got extra reading books. We're currently doing maths - give me strength. He's off for 48hrs from his last toilet run (and we're still having them!).
    Me, OH, grown DS, (other DS left home) and Mum (coming up 80!). Considering foster parenting. Hints and tips on saving £ always well received. Xx

    March 1st week £80 includes a new dog bed though £63 was food etc for the week.
